Mark Caneso, a designer from Southern California, is offering his lovely Quarto typeface free of charge. Head over to his site to grab a copy. I personally love the Q and R. Very nice.
I materiali definiti comuni, non preziosi, mi affascinano da sempre, saperli utilizzare, manipolare per creare ornamenti unici è un arte, facilmente si cade nel banale e nella bigiotteria mentre realizzare delle opere d’arte è un processo creativo a mio avviso molto complicato e segnale di una forte capacità di equilibrio.
I gioielli di utilizzano il legno, noce, ciliegio, cortecce, catturano le diverse tonalità proponendo colori e forme di mirabile bellezza, inoltre uniscono il legno all’argento senza creare stacchi ma una continuazione che unisce e contiene le forme naturali del legno.

I’m not 100% sure, but it looks like Francisco Infante-Arana used aluminium foil to make these shapes on that bush. Make sure you check out his other works with mirrors too.

Now that’s some sound advice! Most often folks depend on power-naps, yoga and stretching to combat stress in office. Here’s a look at an innovative way that combines “active rest with physical stretching of the entire body.” Just flip around this extraordinary Vitra Whiteboard to indulge in an impromptu session of wall climbing. The awesomeness doesn’t end here; this “man-made, movable climbing wall” is meant for the entire office staff. Individual stats and levels for difficulty can be maintained coz the system hooks up to a comp.
Let’s skim over the details a bit.
- Each employee gets his own access card that he uses to operate and store personal stats on.
- The climbing section of the exercise apparatus is capable of being tilted to various angles adding to the level of climbing difficulty.
- You are expected to stay on the wall for as long as possible, reaching for the individual grasping handles that are spaced out unevenly as you continuously move on a mobile belt.
- Beginner with no previous climbing experience can opt for the easy programs where as the pros can opt for the overhang or a ceiling challenge.
- On the back wall, there is a white magnetic board integrated.
What’s it made of:
- The entire Wall is constructed of various parts.
- The stand features an inbuilt touch control screen.
- The frame of the stand is constructed of hidden, weight bearing steel and is covered by plastic sheeting.
- At the bottom of the stand, there is space for fitting in the included safety mattresses which can be tucked away when one wants to use the Whiteboard.
- The stand is fitted with a power cable and a network cable.
- The mattress is manufactured from a special foam material, which acts as a shock absorbent during a fall and is capable of retaining shape.
- The wall is secured to the stand by means of two plugs and the two electromotor located inside the stand allows for the entire wall to incline to different degree angles, ranging from -90° to +90°.
How It works:
- The climbing wall has 8 inbuilt movable belts onto which grasping handles are secured using nuts and bolts.
- The belts are independent of each other and their directional movement and speed is controlled by a software program.
- To increase the levels of difficulty of the climb, one can alter and use different shapes for grasps while climbing.
- The climbing wall hooks up to the computer network system where every office employee is able to view the availability of use of the exercise apparatus or make reservations.
- For motivational purposes, each level is graphically represented. For instance, strolling through a forest (beginning level) to reaching the peak of snowy mountains (advanced level).

Cloud is an installation by An Te Liu, he presented it at the 2008 Venice Biennial of Architecture. It’s made of 120 air purifiers, ionizers, sterilizers, washers, humidifiers, ozone air cleaners. They were all running constantly.
I said that and I’ll say it again. Stomping. Design is best with stomping. If you have to stomp to make the device work, then it’s good. Unless it’s a television. This is what you throw the tiny broken tv into. Then you stomp it. With the ironically titled “Armstrong Bin” compression dustbin, you can compact your trash and get a total thumbs up from the earth that the garbage is inevitably going to fill up!
Kidding! The title is actually very clever with the concept. It’s Armstrong like Neil Armstrong, aka the first man to stomp on the moon. The Armstrong dust bin aims to be the first cleverly named step in reducing the space taken by the garbage we just do not stop making!
Stomp it. Stomp it and KILL it.

Mathew Scott is an American photographer who sheds light on the paradoxical tensions existing just under the surface of everyday life. His photographs show two America’s… a rural and an urban one. In the end, they each exist because of the other, as a struggle of dualities… Yin. Yang.

I’m absolutely loving the brilliant design and branding work of Alvin Diec, an Atlanta, Georgia based designer. Alvin has created posters for bands like Bon Iver, Fleet Foxes and the French Kicks, but I’m really enjoying his logos. The top and middle images are some branding he did for Cakes & Ale, which has this great old-timey feel. The bottom image were some ideas he had come up with for a restaurant called The Bucaneer. They didn’t end up using these, but I had to post them because I love the skull and cross bones made up of a fork and knife.
Be sure to check out the rest of his work as well, he has quite a full portfolio of fun things.

“The Clock Clock” by Humans Since 1982 is a digital clock made from 24 analogue ones. Those 24 aren’t real clocks anymore like you can see in the video. But still nice.
Here are 2 other similar clocks projects worth checking out: O’clock and Christaan Postma Clock.

About the artists
Tamaru (b.1963), also known as the leader of his band Installing (w/ Tadahiko Yokogawa and Keiichi Sugimoto aka Four Color). He improvises solo with bass guitar always in an on-chair shoe-gazing style, in parallel with producing electro-acoustic works. He has released many discs but Figure is his second solo bass guitar album following Basso Continuo, self-released on his own 1050 label. Figure was recorded in 2007. Tamaru defines this album as the integration of his bass guitar performance for over past 10 years. Improvised Music from Japan publishes Tamaru’s artist bio, discography, and interview.
Yui Onodera (b. 1982) was born and grown up in Iwate but lives and works in Tokyo. Entropy is a reissue of his debut originally released on his own Critical Path label in 2005. In the year 2007 Onodera released three full length albums, a 7 inch vinyl and a 3 inch CDR on all different labels outside Japan. He composed solo works until two years ago when he started working on long distance collaborations respectively with Celer in the US, The Beautiful Schizophonic in Portugal, and Exit in Grey in Russia. An English article about Yui Onodera and an interview by Tobias Fischer were published on the Tokafi webzine.
