Imagery from Mushimegane Books
Since we shared the short film on Bornholm based potter Anne Mette Hjortshøj last week I've been craving a good set of ceramics or pottery, and thankfully I found something I wanted to share with you all on that front just before the turn of the week. Typically we're heading to Japan, however the c
Made Here Series: Folk Fibers
The Levi’s Made Here series is a project we’ve highlighted in the past yet until today I hadn’t noticed any further developments. I’m glad they’ve come through with another short film however as we get introduced to the talented Maura Ambrose who is responsible for Folk Fibers, a company s
Recycled Furniture by Patrick and Regitze Kerti
We've consciously tried to take a step back from the platform over the past few days and have really wanted to staple down the direction that we want to take in order to reach our end goal. Putting together the blog and shop has been an incredible journey for both of us creatively and the difficulty
Violin Maker Melvin Goldsmith
At lunch we both came across this short video by Crane TV that really captured our imagination, it’s a piece which features violin maker Melvin Goldsmith. Melvin is a very talented man and made his first violin at the age of 12, his Grandfather taught him the ropes and happened to be a decent amat
Twisted Bread from Kinfolk Volume 4
We return to the creative collaboration that is Kinfolk magazine and their delightful supplementary content, with only seven day's left until the fourth issue is released. Once again filmmaking extraordinaires Tiger in the Jar return to the fold to capture the recipe of avid foodie blogger Tara O'Br
Film on Danish Potter: Anne Mette Hjortshøj
It's time to put the kettle on and get a little comfortable in your chair as this project, much like the art of pottery, isn't for those in a hurry. If you do have spare time on your hands and an avid interest in seeing individuals create one of a kind objects however then you're in for a real treat
Sarjaton by Iittala
I was pleased this afternoon when I came across the video that can be seen below produced by Iittala, originally a glass factory in Finland but they now make all sorts of objects to "enrich people's everyday lives". You may know them for one particular collaboration that took place with Alvar Aalto,
Ceramics by Karin Michelsen
It's pretty inevitable now that our internet digging will often land us in one of the Scandinavian countries given the considered eye for craft and design in this part of the world, similar to that of Japan. So it doesn't really surprise me that we return here today through the work of Danish cerami
Lacquered Paper-Objects by Nendo
The talented individuals at Japanese design studio Nendo were kind enough to send me these photos of this wonderful new project that they've undertaken titled "Lacquered Paper-Objects". Basically they've produced a small container which has been created using a 3D printer that cuts, stacks and paste
Short Film on John Pomp Studios
I don't think I could ever grow tired of seeing glass being blown as it's such an enchanting process seeing the material transform from one state to another. I just wish there were more short films of this quality around, I get really excited when I stumble across short docs like we have here today
Herriott Grace Documentary Trailer
I always go through a short phase where I can't seem to find any inspiring films but usually some other type of content will satisfy my needs. Saying that, I came across this today on my hunt around the web and it instantly hit me that we've covered this fantastic duo before. Daniel previously wrote
Ceramics by Job Heykamp
I was really taken aback this morning by the work of Dutch ceramist Job Heykamp and his beautiful rustic style that makes his creations look fresh from a archaeological find. He's obviously influenced massively by the ceramic work of ages gone by and this shows through the worked surface and coloura
