Woodenware by Masahiro Endo
Some beautiful wooden objects by Japanese woodworker and designer Masahiro Endo, he's been on my watch list for quite a while and I've had his personal website bookmarked for a later date. Today seems like a good day to have a browse through the portfolio and talk about some interesting elements reg
The Moulthrop Family of Woodturners
I thought we’d look into the life of the Moulthrop family today as I watched this wonderful documentary last night run by PBS titled Craft in America which was deeply inspiring. The Craft in America series has been running for quite a while, but as a European citizen we don’t really hear too muc
Bamboo Cutlery by Saya Okihara and Kazuho Shimomoto
You've probably noticed my little fascination with wooden objects as of late, I'm embarking on a small project myself which will involve me making wooden spoons and cutlery. Actually, I ordered a couple of books off Amazon Japan last week which arrived yesterday, both are by an author named Nishikaw
Wooden and Bone Cutlery by Kirsten Hecktermann
For a while I've been admiring the works of designer Kirsten Hecktermann and today seems like the perfect time to take an in-depth view into the objects and how/where they've been made. Kirsten is actually a textile artist, designer, and stylist based in the UK, but this cutlery showcased in this ar
Collection of works from Alexandre Noll
We've both been quite taken with sculpture recently given the arrival of a new Alexander Calder book into the office bookshelf, the man was an absolute genius and a big inspiration to lots of you I'm sure. Casually browsing over his work last night I began to long to see other esteemed sculptors and
Sculpture by Le Corbusier
I pulled across some fantastic sculpture from the one and only Charles-Édouard Jeanneret, better known as Le Corbusier, a genius in my eyes who always inspires me to get creative. I guess you could class this work as later in his life, for example the above piece titled "Little Secret" was created
Selection of Furniture from Superfolk
I'm not sure how popular Makers and Brothers has become, but personally I've really enjoyed seeing their vision unfold as they bring the world Irish made objects that are simple, beautiful and sometimes very quirky. If you've not made a visit to their web shop yet I'd really recommend making the cli
Selection of Work from Kengo Kuma & Associates
Browsing through their webpage today I was finding it a real struggle to pin down just one project that I wanted to share from Kengo Kuma & Associates architects. Their portfolio was too good not to be shared though, so as a solution I've pieced together a selection of work they've put together over
Starling Chair by Cameron Foggo
This is my second post on an item of furniture this week, hopefully we won’t go five days straight with a chair everyday, although if we have seating options like this I won’t be complaining and hopefully you won’t either. The chair that I’ve picked out today is titled the Starling Chair and
Tyndall Table, Bench Rack and Steel Wood Table by Thom Fougere
We’ve posted photography by Canadian creative Thom Fougere before but thanks to our friends at Mjolk/Kitka I had the inspiration to return back to his personal website and found these nicely designed furniture pieces. In particular I picked out the Tyndall Table, Bench Rack and the Steel Wood Tabl
Ceramics and Objects by Sfera
A blog worth visiting is that of Iain Claridge, a small independent design studio based in Bristol, England. They’re regularly showcasing some inspiring imagery and great design related works, so today I decided to put together something that I spotted on their blog a few days back, the works of S
Cy Twombly Sculptures
This weekend I spent much of my time working, luckily enough for me though my job tends to revolve around research and I love taking in different information about creatives and designers. I recently talked about the new additions to my bookshelf in a previous post which included the likes of Ludwig
