Domo de Argila by Artist Andy Goldsworthy
This short film on artist Andy Goldsworthy seriously caught my attention yesterday, possibly because it brings back memories of ‘Rivers and Tides’, a documentary portrait of Andy Goldsworthy by Thomas Riedelsheimer made over ten years ago. You should 100% watch the trailer to the film on youtube
Lost Ceremony – Ghosts in the Workshop by Adam Marelli
I haven’t covered an exhibition in a while and I thought this specific project perfectly summed up the inspirations here on the site, actually it’s almost uncanny the parallels between the two. The project as a whole focuses on Japanese Master Craftsmen as an endangered species, and has been par
Louis Kahn Visual Archive by Naquib Hossain
Wow, some incredible captures of buildings designed by the great architect Louis Kahn, photographed by Naquib Hossain. In fact Naquib has a small website dedicated to Louis Kahn which he has coined a “Visual Archive”, quite fitting for this particular series. If you’ve not seen it before I’d
Abstract Architectural Details by Photographer Yusheng Liao
Wow, this has been an extremely hard post to construct. I've been scouring through photographer Yusheng Liao's website titled 'Figure and Find' and I had to whittle it down to a summary of photographs which was near on impossible. Over the years he's amassed a substantial amount of photographs in hi
Ceramic Houses by Rowena Brown
A fantastic short film by Ian Skelly on London based ceramic artist Rowena Brown, who's a very talented maker indeed. I've known about Rowena's works for a long time but it's through fantastic videos like this that we get the chance to see the real process behind the objects. In my opinion, when you
Japanese Craftsman and Making Processes by Adam Fulford
Last night I was supposed to be getting on with some work but I ended up spending half of it watching through these incredible videos placed up by Adam Fulford. I previously sat through one on the lacquer process a few months back but he's uploaded a lot more and they're ever so inspiring, I was in
Ray Kappe: His Home, Influences and Processes
I stumbled into a few pieces of content that revolved around architect Ray Kappe and his work, so it seemed right to capture them in one group and discuss some thoughts across the board. Whilst browsing on the Kappe+DU architecture page I came across their blog section that keeps you up to date with
Handcrafted Modern Europe: At Home with MidCentury Designers by Leslie Williamson
I have an exciting project to share with you all today, it’s by the one and only Leslie Williamson who’s been a big favourite here on the site over the years. Obviously, with a website that revolves around design, architecture, photography and the like it’s going to be hard not to be influence
Shino Takeda Studio Visit by Inventory Magazine
The good folks at Inventory Magazine recently put together this short feature on Shino Takeda, a creative we’ve discussed here before on the blog. I was instantly drawn to the photography and I couldn’t pass up the chance to share it all with you, it’s definitely worthy of your time today and
Nakamura Kobo Atelier by TED x Tohoku
We've not featured projects involving fabrics here for a while, probably because we've not come across anything incredible, maybe also because we've tried to step back from this world to set ourselves apart. My passion revolves around the reduction in design down to its purest form, and this specifi
Bucky and Spaceship Earth by Carlos Carcas
Over the weekend I sat and watched Norman Foster in his film "How much does your building weigh, Mr. Foster?", a documentary piece on the talented British architect that released late 2010. Don't ask me why it's taken me this long to watch it, I guess when there's so much good material out there it'
Living Quarters Photographed by Mieke Verbijlen
After a little gap between any photography related articles, although every post here does feature an exciting array of imagery, I thought it was about time I highlighted an individual that's been particularly inspiring for a little while. I've had the portfolio bookmarked in my reader and I'm check
