Art Friday – NEW MATH by Craig Damrauer

The concept New Math by Craig Damrauer has been a favorite of mine for many years. Love the humor and simplicity behind the equations, specially “Modern Art = I could do that / Yeah, but you didn’t”. Some of the equations you can buy as posters from the online art shop 20×200. The work shown here is all for sale here.

Colorful Letter Stools

The German interior architect and product designer Sascha Grewe have created this colorful Letters Stools under the name Art Can Break Your Heart. They combine two of my favorite things, type and functionality. The stools is optionally available in an open variant, as bookshelf or with drawer. Every piece is hand made in MDF by Sascha and you can get it in 250 colors. I think it would look perfect in a kids room or in a creative office space. Or maybe as my new bedside table! Conclusion: It would look good anywhere. Discovered by Archello and images by ArtCanBreakYourHeart.

Ja takk, server meg kaffen i disse koppene!

Jeg er på leting etter noen nye kaffekopper til kjøkkenet mitt og nå står jeg igjen med disse to alternativene. Første alternativ er fra Playtype, en online typen foundry etablert av det København-baserte designbyrået, e-Types. De håndlagde keramiske krusene er tilgjengelig i 62 forskjellige tegn. Typografien er i Venti Quattro og The Wave, skrifttyper designet av dem selv. Pris 18 euro stk. Det andre alternativet er Design Letters – ABC kopper. Fonten her er design av selveste Arne Jacobsen. Pris fra 15 euro. Selv om jeg er grafisk designer og typografi nerd, så klarer jeg bare ikke å bestemme meg … elle melle deg fortelle… hvem skal jeg velge?

Eames Limited edition – grafiske sidebord

Dette er dessverre ikke et løp og kjøp tips, men tenkte det kan være god inspirasjon. Har du et gammelt bord som skal pusses opp så er dette en ide som er lett å stjele. Maling og en stor sjablong og så har du ditt eget designet Eames bord. Bordene som vist er en limited edition som kun var mulig å få tak i på Herman Miller Reach event i Hongkong 16 september. Det kommer også en mulighet 27 oktober, på House Industries event på Herman Miller Tokyo Showroom. Les mer om det på House Industries blog

This is sadly enough not a great buy tip , but anyway thought it would a good inspiraton post. If you have a old table, or are planning a tour to the flea market to do some finds, have his in mind. An idea easy to steal, you just need some paint and a graphic stencil and you´ll have your very own Eames designed table. The tables shown is a limited edition that was only possible to obtain at the Herman Miller Reach event in Hong Kong on Sept. 16. There will  also be an opportunity on Oct. 27, at House Industries event på Herman Miller Tokyo Showroom.

Typografi – fortsatt like populært

Danske Optimistic living tok utgangspunkt i skandinaviske hjem og de hvite veggene vi så gjerne omgir oss med. Ieva Glasius-Nyborg som er designeren syntes det var nødvendig med noe lekent og kreativt å dekorere veggene med og her er resultatet. Sticky wallstickers er lette å sette opp, og gjort på noen få minutter. Tror nok man skal finne noe for enhver her. Hun har også satt sitt typografiske uttrykk på flere interiør prosjekter.

Danish Optimistic living took action after seeing white and just white walls in every scandinavian home. Ieva Glasius-Nyborg who is the designer thought it was time to get the walls decorated with some cool, playful and creative walldecor, and this is the result. Sticky wallstickers is easy to put up, and done in just a few minutes. The designer has also put her typographic expression on several interior projects.
