DISCIPLINE – Living With Mario Bellini
I’m always on the lookout for a series that can inspire me on a more consistent basis, today’s post features world renowned Italian architect and designer Mario Bellini. The short film was produced for Discipline who are a new brand that I’ve not come across before, but they seem to be promoti
Vessels by Woodturner Bill Luce
I'm sure you'll agree that it's quite obvious to see a makers inspirations straight off the bat. I hadn't even read through any information on woodturner Bill Luce, but instantly I knew he had some sort of affiliation with Japan, or had been inspired by that particular region of the world. His clean
Junya Ishigami, ‘How small? How vast? How architecture grows’
Maybe this is a slightly strange format for a post today, I'm not sure, but the works definitely inspired me and I had an idea of how I could string something together. I don't usually highlight exhibitions that have been and gone, since you good folks reading won't actually be able to experience it
Ceramics by Justine Allison
Often you find out a lot about a creative by their 'about' or 'bio' page, I like to hear what they have to say and what their inspirations are, whether it be as a maker or a designer. Through all these years finding and sourcing inspiration for the site I have come across many common traits that con
Glass Sculpture by Stephen Procter
Stephen Procter is a bit of a legend when it comes to working with glass, he initially began by researching English glass engraving, this inspired him to learn and explore the craft in more detail. During the late 60's and early 70's, in his studio near Ashburton in Devon, UK, Stephen focused entire
MOLD ALL Exhibition at Tortoise, Glassware by PP Blower
After watching a fantastic short documentary titled ‘GLAS’ yesterday, directed by Bert Haanstra in the 50?s, I had the inspiration to write about some glassware that I’d come across late last week. If you’ve yet to watch the piece, it’s definitely a must for any creative, or anyone who’s
Buchner Bründler Architekten
Although I'm no architect, I do find I have a good sense when it comes to structures and interiors, saying that, I'm not always sure what makes me tick. Usually it involves a lot of open space, a minimal layout, also a mixture of materials, from natural to man made. I always find you need that balan
Feature with Chicago Based Woodworker Jason Lewis
It’s been a long time coming, a new interview has finally blessed our feature section! This time featuring Chicago based furniture maker and designer Jason Lewis. Jason and I have been meaning to put something together for a while, but both of our schedules clashed, so it took us some time going b
Wood Fired Pottery by Hannah Lawrence
Yesterday at the pottery studio I was determined to make a teapot, so I had the studio owner throw the main body for me on the wheel to show the general process and how one can be formed. Like anything new, my first set of attempts were extremely poor, and I couldn't quite grasp what I was actually
Furniture, Sculpture and Mobiles by Faye Toogood
My exploration in to furniture design hasn't just stopped at this site, I've purchased many books and have also been jotting down a mixture of ideas on paper that could come in handy in the future. Although I feel like I have some good ideas, also some amazing inspiration in the back of my brain, I
Architectonic Sculpture by Brian Corr
Sometimes I spend weekend mornings, when it's quiet around here, looking for creative films and other design content that might be inspiring, not necessarily for the blog but just to keep my mind refreshed and in check. For some reason this week I stumbled in to three or four different glass artists
