Inside the Iittala Glassware Factory
Last time I talked about Iittala I highlighted their new ceramic collection titled Sarjaton which is based on Finnish heritage with a crafted touch. At the time I was actually hunting for some photographs of the glassware that Iittala produce being made in their workshop, I was particularly interest
Inside the Thonet Furniture Workshop
Today I thought I’d bring across some inspiring imagery that I found on the Thonet website mostly snapped by the talented photographer Mirko Krizanovic. They were taken specifically for the Essence brochure that Thonet produced at the end of 2011, in my eyes it’s a great introduction to the furn
The Making of the Series 7 Designed by Arne Jacobsen
This video is extremely old but I was blown away when watching it this morning and it sort of led me onto researching a bit more into Arne Jacobsen and his works, particularly the Syveren (Seven) series chair. This pressure moulded veneer chair seen here is apparently one of the most sold chairs in
THE SOURCE by E. Conor Hagen for Mast Brothers Chocolate
I'm sure you're probably all sick of chocolate by now after Christmas and New Year? I've still got lots left that I don't really want to consume, but it's definitely nowhere near as nice as this chocolate made by the Mast Brothers. I don't know how I missed this, since it's over two months old, but
Power of Making by Victoria and Albert Museum
Since words like craftsmanship, tradition, handmade and skill are thrown around a lot in this day and age, the Victoria and Albert Museum decided to investigate what all of this actually means. The exhibition 'Power of Making' is presenting a selection of more than 100 crafted objects by amateurs an
Charlotte, A Wooden Boat Story
Daniel spotted this project a while back but we didn't have anything concrete to post up so it's nice to see that these guys have finally released a trailer which compliments this article today. The trailer is for a short film titled 'Charlotte' about a boatyard, the Gannon & Benjamin Marine Railway
Made by Hand Film Series Teaser
I found this new teaser for a project starting soon titled Made by Hand, a short film series that looks to celebrate the people who make things by hand - sustainably, locally, and with a love for their craft. This trailer found below showcases Breuckelen Distilling, an artisan distillery located in
The Hourglass by Ikepod
Very much a beautiful piece of art in terms of production of this product called The Hourglass by Ikepod and also the way in which the film is directed. The shots are mesmerizing and really leave you in some sort of trance, beautiful. This item is Australian designer Marc Newson’s latest creat
Doll House by Mishenin Anton & Andrey Kalinin
This ones slightly off topic but is still relevant in a lot of ways, a 3D animated rendering by Moscow based creative Mishenin Anton. He teamed up with Andrey Kalinin on this video, who worked on the modelling side of things, but the rest was all by Mishenin himself. The piece is actually an archite
When I Was A Kid by Caleb Vinson
We’ve showcased works from Chicago based creative Caleb Vinson previously on this website. Today we bring you a short piece to start off the morning titled “When I was a kid”. Shot with a Canon 7D, this is quite an experimental short film that plays with the idea of a child’s
Live the Language by Gustav Johansson
A really great series of films directed by Gustav Johansson, with the typography being done by Albin Holmqvist. These shorts are all commercials for EF Language Schools, and show someone studying abroad travelling to each separate country and experiencing the culture. The exact locations are London,
Kurzundschön Competition Opening Sequence by Errorone
What an amazing opening sequence for the short film competition “kurzundschön” (Short & Nice) by Errorone. Obviously there were more involved in this project (credits below) but I thought since Errorone hosted it, I should probably put the name in the title. Beautiful motion in thi
