Short Film on Brooklyn Glass
I'm afraid there's somewhat of an emphasis on the "short" element of this film today but it's a project that resonated with me somewhat earlier so I felt it was worthwhile showcasing despite the fact. I'd like it to be a little longer and I'm sure after watching you will too, but it is what it is, a
Short Film on Tobias Petri by Freunde von Freunden
As times passed and the Freunde von Freunden collective has developed it's been a big inspiration to take in all the multi-talented individuals that they've interviewed the world over. When the project first began they didn't have the opportunity to branch out of Germany all too often, so when you s
Blueware Vases by Glithero
I'm doing the unthinkable today by returning to the same creative who's work we showcased yesterday, but before we get inundated with complaints I better mention he's a filmmaker highlighting some really inspiring makers and shakers. Yesterday Petr Krejci introduced us all to the Czech collective th
Short Film on Vyrobeno lesem Collective
When you sit and consider for a moment how many objects, foods and materials around us are synthetic it makes me feel a little uneasy, I don't agree that price of something is where its real value lies. As time passes I feel myself moving more and more towards items with organic origins, I like to b
Documentary on Potter Lisa Hammond
Before you begin this fine week with us I think you better put the kettle on and get comfortable as Goldmark have put together another of their awe inspiring documentaries following the work of a potter in the lead up to their latest exhibition. Today the creative we get introduced to is another Eng
Asserbo house by Christensen & Co Architects
The last two days I've been spending quite a lot of time dedicated to scouring Denmark to see what I can find in terms of craftsmen and women, be this ceramic, metal, glass, or wood workers so hopefully we can bring a few of these individuals to light here in the next few weeks. In the meantime whil
The Art of Steam Bending by David Trubridge
We turn our attention now to David Trubridge, one of New Zeland's most iconic and innovative furniture designers in an engaging short film I enjoyed watching earlier this morning. Created as a means to document the process behind one of the designers creations we are taken inside the company worksho
Alvar Aalto Studio Outtakes by Leslie Williamson
One of the main things that keeps me constantly captivated and inspired is the small network we've been lucky enough to generate here. I love the idea that once we've shared the work of someone that isn't always the end of the line, I like checking back and seeing how creatives works have progressed
Series of Antiques and Oddities from Factory 20
I've always been somebody that asks questions, who likes to wonder why things have been made the way they have, so naturally I'm drawn to items that embrace an unconventional aesthetic. Which is why I was in my element this morning when I stumbled upon the ridiculously large archive of design object
Architectural Photography by Richard Anderson
I've been scouring around the web for a little architecture today, with Andrew Geller from my last post sitting in the back of my mind. I enjoyed putting this piece together so much that I wanted to ensure I found something today that felt like it would present equal measure of ingenuity and design
Ceramics by Christian Escajadillo
I'm not sure we've covered an individual from Peru before but that's one of reasons I love using the platform we have, each day is a new lesson based upon the research of so many diverse, inspiring individuals. Christian Escajadillo is a ceramist I'd not crossed paths with before but his selection o
Archive Imagery from the Hadeland Glassverk Factory
Putting together yesterday's post on Andrew Geller and getting my hands on the vintage photographs was really exciting for me, it's perhaps my favourite post I've put together here. So whilst I was in the process of compiling this I started thinking to myself, there must be so many archives out ther
