Enzo Mari for Artek by Ville Tanttu

Min Kyu Choi ‘The Flat Plug’ Presented by Dunhill
There’s been lots of hype around UK based designer Min Kyu Choi after his award winning spree. The awards were for his recreation of the everyday item that we all have to use, the plug. Now this one is specifically directed towards the UK, but I think there are other countries in the pipeline.
Saab ‘A Design History’ by Wallpaper
Wallpaper did a nice piece with Saabs new head of design, 36-year old New York-based Jason Castriota. They ask him about Saab, what it means to him, and also how he got started. Overall an interesting interview that springs out some good ideas on the concept of car making. I also liked looking throu
Calculator by Alex Hulme
I’m a bit late on this one, but this such a well designed piece, and the video to go alongside it is really adorable. This project titled Calculator by Alex Hulme is basically a calculator with a memory function. I’m guessing it’s a concept, but i can’t be 100% sure. If it wa

Dieter Rams by Cool Hunting
Dieter Rams is one of those designers in which you can’t seem to shake off, no matter what creative industry you’re in. You have to pay homage to the man who was so ahead of time, he was in another world to be exact. Obviously Dieter has only recently been more admired for his works, [&h
