Andy Warhol Meets Burton

Josh Spear — Thu, 25 Jan 2007 23:37:03 +0000

Even though I have a hard time imagining Andy Warhol drop into a half-pipe, I’m a huge fan of all the Warhol fashion collaborations we’ve seen coming out over the past few months. The latest in the Warhol-celebration-epedemic is the 2008 line from Burton, no cows, Marilyn Monroe or cans of tomato soup here– polka-dotted pants and jacket have inner lining that read “In the future everyone will be world famous for fifteen minutes.” Via Yo Diary

CMB Sweets

Lilly Stein — Thu, 25 Jan 2007 21:46:57 +0000

A great find when it comes to simple ingredients, incomparable taste and a product with personality is CMB Sweets. CMB Sweets is all natural, all Californian and is “made with nothing but fruit (organic as often as possible), sugar, lemon juice and spice.” One of the best things about CMB Sweets, beyond the amazing fusion of flavors is that Carolina (The C, M, and B of CMB Sweets), adds a lot of her personality that we adore so much to her products. She takes a sharpie to the fruit to add graphic fun, adds a creative touch with naming and product descriptions, and well…the flavors happen to be out of this world. My favorite is red juicy blood orange marmalade; dubbed as “true Transylvanian gourmet” since I’ve always been a sucker for anything with blood oranges. We do have to give a standing ovation for CMB Sweet’s new release, kiwi-lime-ginger preserves for mastering great flavor that is a perfect accompaniment with just about anything.

Food, sweets

AWN OSCAR SHOWCASE

AWN's annual roundup of Oscar contenders is up - you can watch clips from all the short and feature animated nominees. The new Pixar film called Lifted looks like good fun. But looking at some of the other shorts it's a complete mystery why Charlex's One Rat Short didn't make the final five.

The competition gave the unique opportunity to design an experimental house without considering building regulations. It had to be simple and cost efficient, but shouldn't renounce quality, luxury and space. Therefore we thought of a compact home, but with a big usable surface area. By using new technologies, we introduce rotating parts, which make walls and ceilings accessible. Two spheres and two spirals are integrated like ball bearings. As a result, the useable surface area increases by 40%. It's possible to manipulate the space instantly, without changing from one room into the other room.

All the furniture is integrated in design, attached to floors walls and ceilings. Therefore the function of the space changes, while the spheres and spirals are turned. In the spheres sit and sleep landscapes provide different settings in shape, illumination and views. The spirals work as turning paravents separating rooms from each other without doors.

The technique used is borrowed from the prototyping industry. That's necessary in order to reach the precision required for the rotating parts and the furniture. A computer controlled milling machine will make the shape out of polystyrene, which will be covered with a coating of glass fibre and epoxy. The result is a light, stiff and highly insulating building.

Construction of the building will start end of 2007 in Almere, the Netherlands.

Treble and Bass

DESIGNSPOTTER — Wed, 24 Jan 2007 22:50:36 +0000

Born as a result of absolved Fashion Design Studies at the Düsseldorf AMD and grown out of an esthetical feeling that design should never just be a mass of compatible copies of good-running industrial trends, the label found its place between the chairs right from the start. Young fashion? Street fashion? The answer is yes and no in capital letters because the road that one goes between Paris and Halfpipe, Milan and Club culture reflects again all the possibilities of a personal, individual life with a large amount of real everyday credibility.

PISTACHIOS DON’T DO DRUGS

heathrow — Wed, 24 Jan 2007 17:54:13 +0000

New from Pistachios, Psyop/Blacklist's Swedish darlings, comes a slew of new PSAs for a Partnership for a Drug Free America. Freehand doodled and witty to boot. Two of my favs are "Not Again" and "Stop Looking At Me". The rest of the spots began airing across the US during last week's American Idol, leaving those of us who don't watch the talent show to our smokey vices.
