Jan Von Holleben
The’Dreams of Flying’ series by photographer Jan Von Holleben are excellent. Capturing the true feeling of childrens imagination and play, they capture an innocence and a nostalgia of what it was like when you were a child.
India
So it’s been a little slow around here recently, since I’m getting ready to go and trek around India for the next few weeks. Needless to say updates will be a little sporadic till I get back. If you want to be kept up to date, sign up for the Hip.Young.Thing. email list (the link is at the top of the page) and I’ll shoot you all an email when things start happening again.
Peace,

Andrew Lewicki
A golden skate rail and a walnut skate ramp are just a few of the things Andrew Lewicki has dreamt up over the years. The resounding theme of his work seems to highlight the specialness and also insignificance of everyday objects.
David Herbert
David Herbert builds some rough and ready sculptures of iconic buildings, objects and landscapes. Some appear cartoonish and others seem to have an incredible amount of detail such as The Crystal Palace (above).
25togo
25togo have got some cool bits and pieces over at their site. Standing out is this ‘My Document’ laptop case which looks exactly like a folder from your desktop.
Josh Keyes
Josh Keyes paints some brilliantly inane pictures of animals in strange situations. His works are satirical yet explore an underlying empathy towards animals and their natural habitats which are slowly being taken away by humans.
Typographical Scarf
Can’t get enought of typography? Then this Typographical Scarf might be for you. I can’t imaging that it provides any real warmth as a scarf but you can’t argue with the aesthetics!
