Redacted Book Series

Sep 13th, 2009

Redacted 1

Lovely little project from Colin Ford called the Redacted Series, which features dystopian novels with censored areas, much like you find on old photocopied documents. It’s a clever idea that I imagine would look rather cool on a bookshelf. The books he picked for the series are 1984, A Brave New World and Farenheit 451, which I think are rather great choices.

Upcycled Art: Cardboard Craft from Empty Paper Rolls

Sep 13th, 2009

Paperrollart 1

Since his childhood, Paris artist Junior Jacquet has been fascinated with paper. The sensation of the paper crumpling in his hands and bending to his will inspires him to create new and fascinating forms. As appealing as these faces are, they are made even more so when you know that they were each made from an empty toilet paper roll.

Jenga Pistol

Aug 27th, 2009

“The game of Jenga was possibly designed to be a more contemplative and strategic game. But sliding those blocks out carefully without knocking over the stack is just entirely too fiddly a task to perform. I figured it would be much more fun to just be able to shoot the blocks out with some sort of pistol.”

Rooftop Patio Pool Design

Aug 27th, 2009

Imagine your own private luxury swimming pool both isolated from the adjacent rocky ocean beach but also elevated far above it with amazing views out in every direction. This beautiful beachfront house makes the most of its proximity to the water as well as its lofty position on an adjacent hillside.

On the rural coast of Mexico, the Universe House by Tatiana Bilboa is the ultimate getaway home – but is unfortunately not for rent or sale, leaving the lucky owners to relax and vacation whenever they wish. Viewed from above the simple layout is very clear: four living spaces with corner courtyards around the central swimming pool feature.

A combination of cozy and private residential spaces below contrasts sharply with the wide-open vistas available from the common patio pool area above. The house design itself is actually based on an astronomical observatory plan taken to new extremes, replacing the observational core with a dynamic rooftop deck design.

Despite its luxury accomodations and modern layout the simple wood-and-white color scheme, rusticated materials and curved surfaces make this design seem more timeless than particularly modern – relaxing and comfortable in its unpretentious details and decor.

Two magic arrows push your books! The Magnetic Bookends Arrow looks Cool on your bookshelf! “They not only keep your books vertically positioned, but due to their material, shine and provide an amazing wow-effect! When viewed at an angle, the clever use of a mirror effect reveals the word “BOOK” on one of the bookends and an exclamation point on the other! “

30 Fun Things to Do When Driving

Aug 27th, 2009
  1. Vary your vehicle’s speed inversely with the speed limit.
  2. Roll down your windows and blast talk radio. Attempt to headbang.
  3. At stop lights, eye the person in the next car suspiciously. With a look of fear, lock your doors.
  4. Two words: Chicken suit.
  5. Write the words “Help me” on your back window in red paint. The more it looks like blood, the better.
  6. Have conversations, looking periodically at the passenger seat, when driving alone.
  7. Laugh a lot. A whole lot.
  8. Stop at the green lights.
  9. Go at the red ones.
  10. Occasionally wave a stuffed animal/troll doll/Barbie out your window or sunroof. Feel free to make it dance.
  11. Eat food that requires silverware.
  12. Pass cars, then drive very slowly.
  13. Sing without having the radio on.
  14. Honk frequently without motivation.
  15. Wave at people often. If they wave back, offer an angry look and an obscene gesture.
  16. Ask people for Grey Poupon.
  17. Let pedestrians know who’s boss.
  18. Look behind you frequently, with a very paranoid look.
  19. Restart your car at every stop light.
  20. Hang numerous car-fresheners in the rear-view mirror. Talk to them, stroking them lovingly.
  21. Lob burning things in the windows of smokers who throw their butts out the window.
  22. Keep at least five cats in the car.
  23. Root (cheer, not snuffle in the mud) for firetrucks.
  24. Stop and collect roadkill.
  25. Stop and pray to roadkill.
  26. Throw Spam.
  27. Get in the fast lane and gradually … slow … down … to a stop. then get out and watch the cars. Throw Spam at them.
  28. Chinese Firedrill. Get at least 2 people in a car (the more the better) when the light turns red everyone get out and run around the car and yell “fire, fire!” Then get back in the car but switch drivers. Then drive off when the light turns green and act like nothing happened. (Called Chinese Fire Drill because China is so crowded that there is no place to run in a fire. So you have to get back in.)
