Collection of work by Tapio Wirkkala
After visiting the studio of Mari Andrews in yesterday's post I’ve kept my nose to the ground in the search for another super creative individual and thankfully I stumbled upon the website of Finish designer Tapio Wirkkala. Now Tapio is unfortunately no longer gracing this earth since his passing
Ceramic Objects by Tara Shackell
Today I'm going to highlight some incredible ceramic work by Tara Shackwell, a ceramic artist living and working in Melbourne. I've come across her work several times before and I thought it was about time I showcased it on the site, it's one of those things where it seems like fate. Tara mainly mak
Imagery from Alison Berger Glassworks
I thought I'd bring a little craft into the fold today as we've both been pursuing our own creative projects recently and I was hugely inspired by the work of Alison Berger and the skill she has developed in making handblown glass. Based in Los Angles, Alison's professional background was initially
Kay Bojesen, Craft Designer
Kay Bojesen, a bit of a legend to say the least. He's been on my radar for a little while now and I've been studying this Danish designer to see what I could find on him and his work. It's always great to find out new information and Kay is actually tied to the design scene in more than one way. Bor
Hidden Valley Home by Marmol Radziner
Given our mid-century tastes in architecture recently built projects don't tend to crop up every day that impress us, I guess we are rather selective. However, today I've been admiring the work of Marmol Radziner again and this prefabricated build they've put together in the Moab desert of Utah whic
In Order of Appearance Exhibition by Jackson
Have you been looking for some furniture inspiration? I have to admit we’ve been slacking on the furniture front, we barely came across anything last week and I’ve been on the lookout myself. Regular checking spots include Artek, Fritz Hansen and Carl Hansen, obviously there are multiple shops a
Yumiko iihoshi Porcelain
Even though we don't necessarily work on weekends here I'll still keep my eyes open for inspiration, beautifully designed objects and information that's new and exciting in the design world. Sometimes it's just luck of the draw to what you'll find but generally I discover something that's really int
Projects by Marianne Brandt
Who doesn't love the Bauhaus? I'm certainly an admirer and in the next week I'll be looking to venture out towards the Barbican before the 'Bauhaus: Art as Life' exhibition finishes in London, it would be a great shame to miss it since it looks fantastic. I'm one of these guys who's got an obsessive
Ceramics by Lilith Rockett
I’m not sure how we’ve not posted up Lilith Rockett’s work before, I’ve come across many ceramicists over the years, albeit each one having a slightly different flavour, but I’ve never seen such a complete collection as Lilith’s. She works primarily in porcelain which seems to be a massi
Pescher House by Richard Neutra
I've just noticed that this week the blog has become a bit of a graveyard, with Max Lamb and Aaron Rose the only souls amongst our content still living. I'd just like to confirm we don't have any prejudice against those breathing, it's just a coincidence that this has transpired. Saying this I'm not
Carl Auböck, In the Workshop
Hopefully this post will get you very very inspired, the photography featured here is pretty astonishing to say the least and I'm very lucky to be showcasing it to you all today. As you probably know from previous posts I'm a big fan of Carl Auböck and his creations, it's great to look back at thes
Crockery by Max Lamb
I’ve been meaning to post about Max Lamb for many months now, If I recall correctly I think I wrote a little piece on him a year ago which was about his collaboration with Dunhill on a chair. It was an interesting project but for some reason or another I’ve never got around to posting up more of
