Clouds by the Bouroullecs

These fabric swatches link together to form a sort of quilt-like structure. Not sure of the function but I like to think things can be purely decorative. Also check out the movie they made on the kvadra site.

Swing Skirt

Good friend Rachel Griffin is on Cool Hunting. Check it out.

Buttons!

One of my favorite recent pieces by Ryan McGinnes, Island Universes (Snake), 2007, set of 777 unique buttons printed with archival ink on paper pinned to raw canvas, 72 x 72 in.
His site has been updated and looks good. Check it!

Please Don't Tell

I had a drink at the Please Don't Tell speakeasy last night. My recommendation: a bacon infused bourbon Old Fashioned and a hot dog by Wiley Dufrain, which has maple ketchup and fried mayo. So good!

Made in America

Sorry for all the bike posts... I think I have cabin fever. Check out this great interview with bike makers, Freeman Transport. Via Selectism
Also check out Moyer. Amazing custom bikes from Austin and nice photos too.

Photographer Anna Wolf New Website.

Photographer and friend of dudes in suites Anna Wolf just launched a new website.

Good & Cheap

Keds! Super cheap and clean with tennis racket soles. Good for men and ladies.

Objectified

Gary Hustwit, creator of the Helvetica film, is releasing a new documentary on object design called Objectified. The film features all my favorites Jonathan Ive, Ronan & Erwan Bouroullec, Marc Newson, Naoto Fukasawa, Jasper Morrison and Deiter Rams. It also has interviews with my boss Karim Rashid... Should be really good... especially for object aficionados.

Listen: Alaska in Winter

Check out Alaska in Winter. Robo-folk is kind of awesome, plus Zach Condon from Beirut is on a couple of tracks... so good!
