Objectified

"Objectified is a feature-length documentary about our complex relationship with manufactured objects and, by extension, the people who design them. It’s a look at the creativity at work behind everything from toothbrushes to tech gadgets. It’s about the designers who re-examine, re-evaluate and re-invent our manufactured environment on a daily basis. It’s about personal expression, identity, consumerism, and sustainability."

This looks like quite a good film on design that I will most definitely watch when it comes out in about July.

Shelving Unit

This shelving/seating unit designed by Stephanie Choplin comprises of six separate blocks that can be arranged however you want or need them to be. As space is getting less and less in big cities more people are designing multifunctional furniture. It looks like it is made out of laminated wood.

Grass Armchair




The grass arm chair comes as a DIY project consisting of the frame and 100g pack of grass seeds. You just need to fill it with about 240 litres of soil and be patient. When complete, all you have to do is relax in your own home grown armchair. A small trim every now and then will keep it nice! This is a real nifty idea and requires basically no raw materials to construct.

Lip Dark Master Chronograph

As you know I like watches...my bank account was looking healthy for a change so I bought this, oops! Who needs food anyway?
It is a Lip Dark Master Chronograph wristwatch, how cool is it??? It was orgiinally designed in the 1973 by Roger Tallon a prolific designer who did the high-speed French TGV trains. With a price tag of $600 dollars it wasn't cheap, I didn't actually pay that much but still I think it was worth it, I know not many would agree with me there.
