Another new product from fabulous Nendo. They used heat-forming to shape the netting. (The netting is normally used to cover fields of vegetable plants to protect them from birds.) Smart! Next year I need to go to Maison&Object again!!

Do you need some material moods? Here we are!
In design I am particularly interested in the properties of the material: the soft texture of ceramics, its subtle colours and matte and glossy surfaces. I highly value everyday moments. Maybe what I am trying to do is to introduce some solace and consolation into daily life through everyday objects of beauty.

Lightweight stool or wavy Coat hanger, the technology developed by Oskar Zieta is fantastic. Welded and inflated very carefully under high pressure to create unique bulges and waves. That's design!!

Melbourne based designstudio Coco Flip aka designer Kate Stokes was inspired by the old tin can telephone. Also called 'lovers telephone', this spun copper pendant light pays tribute to a time gone by.
I'm back in blogland, finally! Last week was filled with work, preparing babyboy birthday, cleaning the house, painting and so on.... But it was great! Let's start the week with this wonderful temporary house made by Martin Azua. A basic inhabitable volume; foldable, inflatable and reversible. Great!!

A friend of mine launched an exclusive online shop with wonderful colored Kashmiri shawls, the collection is named LALIT. The Lalit Kashmiri shawls are exceptionally soft, warm and they have a subtle sheen. And yes, they ship internationally!! And here a special for all my Swiss readers: Tomorrow is a 'pre christmas happening' in Zurich at Räffelstrasse 25 : Oh Darling, it's christmas again... All the shawls are available there.... Wish you good shopping!
Join consists of a series of three space-dividers. In each piece two lined frames, representing the humble integrity inherent to the craft, are visually merged to create a moment that deviates from the conventional Tategu aesthetic, and introduces angles and shapes that are not commonly used in the craft. BCXSY is a cooperative between Boaz Cohen and Sayaka Yamamoto. Impressing!! More here!
