These amazing sculptures created by Dutch designer Bert Simons are in fact made of paper. In addition to these, he also has some really great furniture design on his website.

Cassette Tape Dispenser
This retro Cassette Tape Dispenser from J-Me is pretty cool. It’d go well with the cassette tape ipod case!
Running the Numbers
Running the Numbers is a fantastic set of creative infographics which paint a stunning and disturbing portrait of American culture.
Open Design Club
Ever seen a piece of great design that’s a must have for your apartment, then seen the price tag and decided that this particular item may have to wait until you get that promotion? Open Design Club is essentially a website for open source design ideas. Designers submit their ideas along with schematics on how to build it yourself.
Demakersvan
This great concept for fencing is by Dutch design house Demakersvan. Fences always seem like such clinical structures and this proves that they don’t have to be.
Levelhead
Levelhead is a conceptual game that requires players to utilise their spatial memory. The player controls a man who is seemingly trapped inside a cube. By manouvering this cube the player must lead the man through seperate rooms in 120 seconds or less. The video for Levelhead is astounding and I find the concept very clever indeed, especially the real interaction between the player, cube and computer screen.
Funky Forest
Funky Forest is a brilliant interactive display built by Theodore Watson and Emily Gobeille. The forest is an ‘interactive ecosystem’ where children can create trees and then are required to divert a water flow in order to keep them alive. I’ve really been digging interactive installations recently and this one is just amazing, it’s a great concept and the visuals are stunning.
Uncredited
Ever watched a movie where the opening credits are far better than the actual film? Me too. Uncredited gives credit where credit’s due (pun semi-intended) and showcases some of the best and most ground-breaking film titles from early film making to the present day.
Fray
Fray is one of the web’s oldest and best creative writing e-zines. Evolving over the years from a website, to a series of live storytelling events and now to it’s present form, a quarterly magazine available in print and online. This time they’ve got a bunch of fantastic illustrators on board to provide some graphic content for the stories, including artists Drout750, Ray Frenden (who we also featured here) and many more…
Flying Carpet
The Flying Carpet looks like it could be the ultimate play mat for young and old alike. Just looking at it takes me back to my childhood, creating hills and flat sections for my racing car track.
