Svpply is a retail bookmarking and recommendation service, filtered through the collective wishlists of invited members, featuring the full spectrum of retail products, from the exclusive to the wholesale. Its like flicking through a shopping catalogue when you were a child picking out items that you wished you could have, but except Biker Mice From Mars action figures, it has some tasty fashion and design related items. I love it
Very cool interactive cd designed by Hubero Kororo, video below. No idea how this is created or who makes this but would be very interested to find out.
Loving this. The perfect item to punch potty-mouths in the face with. By Spyedesign.
Don’t think we have posted any of Steve Harrington’s work, but Arkitip are selling his brilliant screenprinted ‘teepee’s’. Would absolutely love to see these full size in someones garden, what fun.
One for our Paul here at Human Resources. Designer Paul Smith is the next in line to produce a new exclusive Evian bottle with his trademark stripes (I have a shirt just like that at home) for sale in specialist eateries and online here. Definitely one for the Paul Smith enthusiasts.
More sound related product wizardry, this time Charlie Pyott presents his portable, slim cased turntable concept LINOS. I know alot of people who would love this product
Stunning set of headphones from Scando-design company AiAiAi, launching November 2009. So simple and elegant, had to post these
I’m a huge admirer of QLOCKTWO, a clock that tells time in words. It has a quadratic matrix of letters, where some of the letters are illuminated and the time is displayed as text in five minute intervals. If you need to tell a more exact time, all you need to do is look in the corner at the illuminated dots.
