The Shelving System by Stuttgart, Germany based designer Daniele Luciano Ferrazzano is built from modular parts without the need for tools and fasteners. The parts simply slip together using gravity to hold everything tight. Perfect for everything from a bench to a TV console, to an entire wall of storage.
This is a really brilliant & simple solution to an annoying problem, how to store your headphones neatly at your computer. If you have an iMac, and a spare $15, the MacHook by Adam Brackney of Workerman is just what you need.
As a year-end appreciation for their clients, the amazing talents at Column Five, a design firm specializing in data-visualizations based in Newport Beach, CA, put together the “In Caffeine We Trust” poster. This beautiful poster tracks the caffeine consumption over the period of month and is meant to be filled in using the very drink it tracks.
I really love the personality of the Neo Orient typeface by Istanbul, Turkey based designer and typographer Uğur İslim. The typeface includes both a standard set and an initials set that are equally beautiful.
Revolver is a beautiful, modular storage system, by design studio Henny van Nistelrooy, and is based off of a reversible bent metal shelf shelf and Douglas Fir uprights with retaining pins.
I love the beautiful ceramic work by the duo James & Tilla Waters. Their elegant ceramic bowls, cups and containers are hand made in their small farm studio in Carmarthenshire, Wales. The simple forms are complimented beautifully by the subtle colors and the brilliant pop or red at their bases.

Revolver is a beautiful, modular storage system designed by the talented people at the London based design studio Henny van Nistelrooy. The system, based off a reversible shelf, was originally designed for the bicycle store Velorution in London but it quickly became apparent that there was a need for an elegant, modular shelving system for both retailers and consumers. The system is built from Douglas Fir and powder coated steel shelves and can be configured in any way.

I really love the personality of the Neo Orient typeface by Istanbul, Turkey based designer and typographer Uğur İslim. The typeface includes both a standard set and an initials set that are equally beautiful. Unfortunately I can’t find any more information on the typeface or whether it’s available for purchase.

Users track their intake for the month then fill the poster out using coffee as paint. They gave one to each of their partners & clients and have produced a limited run that’s available for only $29.95 on their website.

This is a really brilliant & simple solution to an annoying problem, how to store your headphones neatly at your computer. If you have an iMac, and a spare $15 ($20 for the decoupaged version), the MacHook by Adam Brackney of Workerman is just what you need.
Sure, you could make one yourself, but you haven’t and I’m pretty sure your wouldn’t have the “nano-suction technology” that the MacHook uses to adhere, and cleanly remove, to your Mac.

The The Moses Bridge, by RO & AD Architecten, challenges our perception of what a bridge really is. The bridge, which leads across the moat at a 17th Century Dutch fort, actually goes down through the water to preserve the historic view of the fort. Pretty brilliant if you ask me. The project is a finalist in the 2011 Dutch Design Awards.
Usually when I shop for wine, I stay safe and pick the wines I know, but this eye-catching branding for Urban Wineworks, by Dallas, Texas based Foundry Collective, would definitely pull me into buying.
Paris is an amazing new typeface by Israeli designer Moskik Nadav. This amazingly ornate typeface includes some of the most beautiful and creative ligatures I’ve seen this years. The typeface works best at Title size and pairs beautifully with more traditional slab-serifs & includes 9 weights
The amazing Little Shining Man Kite was thought up by Heather and Ivan Morison & designed by Sash Reading and engineered by the folks at Queen & Crawford.

Dana Cannam continues his amazing work with the Bravais Desk, a modular solid wood desk that can be arranged & customized to fit any need. What’s amazing about the Bravais Desk is that it is all done with no hardware, much like the Clamp Lamp Cannam designed for Pablo earlier this year.
