It feels like I’ve been writing a lot about jewellery recently (well in the last couple of months anyway), but I guess that’s because I keep finding more great stuff! The Seventh Letter is no exception although their subject matter is slightly more hardcore. Shown above is the TSL Kenton Parker charm with TSL armour chain.
Covers is a nice little blog by the talented folk over at Fwis, which is all about the great book cover design. There’s also a few interesting articles written about the storage of books as well as interviews with the designers themselves.
Paul Octavious is a talented photographer from Connecticut. His mix of photography with fantastical elements as in his Puffin Clouds series are inspirational.
The High Line is an unused rail line which runs above street level through New York City. Over the years it has been reclaimed by nature with grass and other wildlife growing all along the tracks. The Friends of the High Line are a non-profit organisation dedicated to the preservation and re-use of the High Line as a public service. Unfortunately for the time being it is illegal to actually walk along it, hopefully in the future the High Line will be a place for all New Yorkers to go to enjoy the sights and sounds of the city from this unusual vatage point.
UsTogether are a group of British and Irish designers who are producing some wonderfully contemporary bathroom fixture design. The designs themselves have clean lines and an overall minimal feel to them albeit a futuristic one.
Anna Tascha is a Swedish designer who makes some pretty crazy jewellery. Featured above is the golden earphones necklace.
A to Zee is a beautifully illustrated childrens book of the alphabet from the infamous Robotface Collective. Featuring some beautiful graphics from the likes of Ray Frenden (also featured here yesterday!), Drout750, Julie West, Chris Bishop and many more this book is a treat for the design savvy child or just the design savvy! (featured above is C for Crab by Drout750 and Y for Yeti by Julie West).
Ray Frenden is a very talented illustrator indeed! His work consists mainly of ghouls, goblins and such but don’t let that frighten you away, his style is amazing. Totally reminds me of Dan Clowes.
Tokyoflash has the craziest range of watches I’ve ever seen! The watches have got some really interesting and sometimes even innovative ways of displaying the time and they definitely look cool. Just don’t expect to be able to tell the time!
