Deer me, look at this lamp

Posted by Jess

This sweet wall lamp by Chen Bikovski is on my list of things to own. My favourite part is the phantom antlers that appear when you turn it on. Pity they’re not for sale… yet. Petition, anyone?

I saw the much-hyped Disney short ‘Paperman‘ last night, and it did not disappoint. The film represents a near-perfect marrying of 3D accuracy and 2D aesthetics, and it brought up all sorts of warm fuzzy nostalgic feelings. It doesn’t seem to be available online so far, but here’s a look into how it was made.

Director: John Kahrs
Writers: Clio Chiang (story), Kendelle Hoyer (story)
Stars: John Kahrs, Jeff Turley and Kari Wahlgren
Production Co: Walt Disney Animation Studios

Fall in Love with Travel

Posted by Jess

Check out this beautiful video by Justin Barnes – each scene was carefully selected and re-drawn from an iconic vintage travel poster. Love it.

Wooden Lego

Posted by Jess

I know what you’re thinking – ‘how can I continue to experience the pure childhood joy of Lego bricks, without the garish primary colours that clash with my chic ensemble?’ Well, here you go. Thanks, Mokurukku!

Piggie lamp

Posted by Jess

There’s something very cute and mildly creepy about this pudgy little pig-shaped lamp, which is designed to take advantage of aCFL bulb’s twirly shape.

Re-Ply cardboard chair

Posted by Jess

You know what the best thing is about this chair by Dan Goldstein? The seat is made from 100% reclaimed cardboard. You know what the second best thing is? It’s got the word ‘Furniture’ printed across its lower back. It’s a chair with a tramp stamp of its own name. You go, chair. Keep it sassy.
