This really is one of the freshest and most novel concepts for a watch I’ve seen in a while. The watch by Alexandros Stasinopoulos portrays three intertwined tape measures that move with the time. I have not quite figured how to describe the relation between time and space, but I’m sure there is one.

I’ve always wanted to do a watch that gave you different facial expressions to relate the time to you. For instance, 8am might show an expression of someone bleary eyed but refreshed where 2 am might show bloodshot eyes and extra bags.

I saw the clothespin light, and I wondered to myself, “OK, it’s a clothespin and a light. So what?”. Now it all makes sense after seeing this image.

Yet another remake of everyday objects as precious little trinkets. I like them all, so keep them coming. I’ve seen clorox bottles in ceramics, water bottles in glass, but the lightness of Kutchamuch’s egg crate, for instance, exceeds the quality of any i’ve seen. I hope i’m right in saying that taking an everyday object and turning it into silver is only something accomplished by painstaking work done by a true artisan.

I found these pieces recently and found them to be beautifully colored. Most outdoor furniture i encounter does not have the cohesive strength to make a whole collection. Rather, most outdoor furniture that you might find in this category are a motley collection of dissimilar objects. I applaud the consistency.

I pulled this from Dezeen who have loaded up a comprehensive gallery of images of featuring probably the most significant brand launched at this year’s Salone in Milan. The brand is Skitsch, and it was founded by Renato Preti, a very important private equity investor behind such brands as B&B Italia. Now, he takes his hand at a collection that is rich, diverse, and built upon such design stars as Konstatin Grcic and Ross Lovegrove, but the list is so deep that it would be hard to mention all the talent.

Above, I show my favorite which is the scissor chair designed by kiki Van Eijk. It’s thin, sensible, restrained, and modern yet homey. this would be my rocking chair of choice if I were I retired to an OMA villa.

Illusion Table is so expertly performed that I couldn’t quite geta handle on its expertly crafted form. First, it is made from laquered ash which is not what I thought. At first glance, it’s steel or aluminum or anything else but wood. But this illusive use of such a simple material is not where the illusion table gets its name. It gets its name from what the table looks like in plan. In plan, it takes on the form of a perfect square not the sloping curve of it’s side profile. This is quite a slick, thoughtful piece.
