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
Short Film on Heath Ceramics
We love supporting companies with integrity and substance at the core of their existence and Heath Ceramics in California fits right into this very mould. They've modernised the project started by Edith Heath back in 1948 to remain ahead of the current market without compromising the legacy Edith le
Film on Architect Gene Summers
Unfortunately the greatest creative minds can't live on forever but one of the refreshing things about the digital age is our new found ability to capture an essence of what a person was all about and share this with future generations. American Architect Gene Summers dubbed by many as Mies van der
Peter Shire: Cups 1974 – 2012 by Eric Minh Swenson
The good folks at South Willard put me onto this fantastic video based on Los Angeles based artist Peter Shire. Funnily enough last week I was actually browsing Peter’s website and it struck me how playful and comedic his work is, it’s great to know that he doesn’t take life too seriously and
Golden Arber Sculpture by Harry Bertoia at the 510 Fifth Ave Building
This morning I was diligently researching Harry Bertoia, mainly reading more into his life story and his works. I read on the Harry Bertoia blog that his daughter Celia, who also runs the Harry Bertoia website, had recently set up a Facebook page to house information on up and coming events involvin
Vitra FICTION “Remind Me” by Florian Böhm
Vitra recently released this short film directed by Florian Böhm and is titled "Remind Me". It's the first from a series of videos named "Fiction" which looks to tell domestic stories that could have happened to any of us. It shows how these much prized pieces of furniture either drives an action f
Short Film on Sean Woolsey
I felt like sticking with a little more craft today after sharing Sebastian Cox's work yesterday, so I pencilled in this great short film which explores the talents of craftsman, maker and artist Sean Woolsley. This project has been put together by the good folks over at process creative who you may
Set of Imagery from Renilde Depeuter
I felt I was well overdue a return to a set of photography so I've pieced together this selection from Renilde Depeuter who many of you may remember for her stunning mobiles we covered on the blog back in February. Initially I was just browsing around enjoying Renilde's photostream over on Flickr an
Documentary on Potter Svend Bayer
Acknowledging a running theme of traditional craft with the daily line up, I thought I'd introduce a documentary I recently viewed which follows the work of English Potter Svend Bayer. Given we have shared lots of ceramics and pottery in the past I felt the need to source a project that would expand
Kinfolk Dinner – Brooklyn, New York Short Film
I really love what Kinfolk do and the way they go about things which is why I almost feel obliged to share their work when they create things. I guess I feel by doing so not only am I believing in what they put out there but also everyone that is involved in each project too, because they really see
Short Film on Kutani Choemon Ceramics
We do tend to bombard you all with pottery here, but for this I can’t apologise as I’m about to share some again, as we visit the studio of Kutani Choemon who have been operating in Japan since 1879 would you believe. I found it really incredible that the current owner Kentaro Kamide is the four
Monocle “Craftsmanship” Film
I spotted this piece last week thanks to our friends at SEH Kelly, who happen to be featured in this video below titled “Craftsmanship” which is made and produced by Monocle magazine. I instantly thought, ‘that’s going to get a lot of views’ but as the week wore on I realised that not that
