Mary Katrantzou

Mary Katrantzou did present an interesting collection, she did transfer interiors images into her pieces: "With this collection, I wanted to put the room on the woman, rather than the woman in the room". See the entire collection here.

XMas break

from the Flower Book - Dietmar Busse

Dear Blog Friends,

you may think "hey where is she gone???"

No worries, I am still here, but I was doing that little thing that I need to do everyday from 9.00 till 17.00, ah what's called again? ahhh woooork!

So sorry for the silence, but work related projects & personals projects demanded my attention.

I take a short break now, while travelling through the "Bella Italia" I will be collecting inspirations to share with you in january.

Happy Holidays!

Chiara Clemente

Italian, but NY based, documentary maker Chiara Clemente did portrait the stories of five artists women in New York city. The result is "Our City Dreams" a beautiful movie, have a look at the trailer here.

The Book of Job

My dear friends and designers Job Smeets and Ninke Tynagel are launching a beautiful and limited book about their work in New York. Congratulations dear friends!

Nathalie Stämpfli

Swiss designer Nathalie Stampfli did develop this soap dispenser which is using solid soap.

Nathalie says: "Today, most of the soap we use is liquid soap, which contains a lot of water. Block soap instead is more concentrated and therefore has some ecological benefits: You don’t transport unnecessary water around. In place of plastic bottles you can simply use paper for packaging. The solid blocks can easily be piled and allow a greater space efficiency in a truck."

Her Soap Flakes looks also very nice.

Remi van Oers

Here a beautiful solution which will make drivers, and women, extremely happy in the future!

Remi van Oers did design a simple, yet good looking, car jack system. It is a compact system that allerts the other drivers when your car is in trouble and that helps to move the car for changing tires.

Lucas Mullie'

Dutch BA graduate of the Design Academy Eindhoven, Lucas Mullie', was inspired by the industrial atmosphere of the city Eindhoven, where Philips industrial heritage is still extremely present.
For his graduation project he then decided to design a restaurant where the presentations, the services and the all food organization will make you feel as a semi-industrial production process is taking place.
Lucas was a chef before to attend the Design Academy, and with this project he did find the perfect combination between the two industries, food & design.

Maurizio Montalti

Young italian designer Maurizio Montalti did write an extremely interesting research concerning fungi.

His experiment shows that this new organism is able to modify plastic. Have a look at his project here.
