Eureka Tower Carpark designed by Axel Peemoeller…

I developed a way-finding-system for the Eureka Tower Carpark while working for Emery Studio. The distorted letters on the wall can be read perfectly when standing at the right position. This project won several international design awards. (via)

Reading Tray designed by Yu-hun Kim…

Yu-hun Kim has created a spill-proof tray for eating and reading. The tray was created after Kim explored the everyday errors people make when multi-tasking. Kim designed three objects to try and solve these issues, including a mug for reading and drinking simultaneously, a combination knife and fork and this reading tray. The tray can be held in one hand, allowing the user to read and eat with their free hand. If they do spill or make crumbs, the [clear acrylic] tray can simply be wiped off. (via)

#58 “Spirit” A Tribute to Lee Alexander McQueen by Visionaire…

Visionaire pays tribute to the iconoclastic genius of Alexander McQueen who left his definitive mark on the design world of the 90s and 2000s. But it’s more than just a tribute, this special issue is published following a planned project between the designer and Visionaire, which never came to fruition. Now, as if to make up for the past, [they have] assembled some amazing work from Nick Knight, Steven Klein, Mario Sorrenti, Steven Meisel, Mario Testino, Inez van Lamsweerde & Vinoodh Matadin and Lady Gaga. With 1,500 copies on a special paper to plant, the Visionaire 58 will be sold exclusively in Alexander McQueen boutiques, Visionaire and at Colette. A limited edition couture version created in close collaboration with the house of Alexander McQueen will also be available. (via)
