TTMM x32

TTMM presents watchface apps collection, designed for smartwatches with black and white 144×168 pixel screens such as Pebble. The apps (iT / Gp) are original, simple and aesthetic in design.

These watches are the most economical and ecologically-friendly ever to have existed. You will find here 32 models of simple, elegant and aesthetic watchface.

RDC / AAL

Rafael de Cárdenas aka Architecture at Large was founded in 2006 and had a small office in Chinatown and has now expanded to two continents with offices in New York and London.

With wide-ranging projects in architecture, residential and commercial interiors, temporary spaces, furniture, and integrated objects – they favor the strategic over the thematic, the cosmopolitan over the typological, and the atmospheric over the static.

Well the opening sequence of their website is not exactly what you were expected – but I’m loving it.

Cars And Films

Baby you can drive my car! Well not exactly but you could hang it on your wall if you want. Cars And Films is a little project by Jesús Prudencio – a graphic designer and illustrator based in Seville, Spain.. and obviously – he loves series, films and cars!

Printed on beautifully textured 200gsm Tintoretto Gesso paper.

Furnish / book

Furnish edited by R. Klanten, S. Lovell, B. Meyer
Furniture and interior design for the 21st Century

To restore and renew my inspiration — books have always been a main source. Today, to be a well-rounded designer you need to be opened to multi-disciplines contributions to the current state of the industry.

Furnish is an eloquent, polished and concise overview of product and interior design. Each sections is documented with a well researched list of projects. The introductory text which sets the context methodically, is non-verbose, making it an easy and enlightening read.

I was surprised and tickled by that there is a sizable portion dedicated to experimental, rapid prototyping and questioning why do we need stuff anyway.
