Active Furniture
(14 October 2009) - Active Furniture, a project by Spanish designers Virginia Pol, Ferran Lajara and Cristina Guardiola, uses counter-intuitive design as an antidote to our increasingly sedentary lives.

Ideas for her pictures come from dreams, along with absurd true...

Swing Skirt
(13 January 2009) - by Ariston Anderson While waiting for a train, hanging in a park or simply wanting to take a playful break throughout the day, Rachel Griffin's hand-knotted swing skirt is an outfit that becomes an insta-swing anywhere, anytime.

Case in point, Alexandros Stasinopoulos's high-tech concept for BRΙΕFC(eramic)ACE.

Illustrator Oscar Giminez
(26 November 2008) - Says Barcelona-based illustrator, Oscar Giminez, of his beautiful line drawings, "I used to be a big fan of fashion illustration.

Everyone left with tons of reading material in their hands, from little art books to mini posters. Curated by Ivo Mesquita and Ana Paula Cohen, this year's biennial...

After being wowed by Debbie Smyth's Pins and Thread installation, the nearby dramatically-titled Deadly Glasses caught our attention.

His seven hand-blown red wine glasses were exhibited in and around a beautiful wooden box with...

Grandfather Clock by Rob Price
(30 September 2008) - by China Young Rob Price made a name for himself with the Grandfather Clock, a modern, abstracted take on the classic. Although you may have seen his slice of the traditional before (he debuted it last year), we think the way the design literally cuts away the excess material while still echoing the classic in a completely fresh way deserves a closer look.
