assemble / disassemble
putting things together and taking things apart. i'm a big fan of both. these two themes keep popping up lately.
todd mcclellan:
i've taken many things apart, for many different purposes. it's fun to see all the parts, and it's fun to have a reason to use break out those tools that never really get much use, like those tiny screwdrivers that are usually required when disassembling machines.
however, i've never achieved the level of beauty seen in this series of work by todd mcclellan. for fans of design and tiny parts, this is it.

thomas thwaites:
"the toaster project" addresses many larger questions and things about the modern world, but the part i really like is the actual attempt to build a toaster from scratch.
here's some words someone else wrote about it, and a ted talk video below.

The Bike Shelf...mount up.
Just when I was getting a little tired, enters the Bike Shelf by Bay Area designer/maker Knife and Saw (one Chris Brigham)!
...Do I own this?
No. At least not yet. But I love it so much who knows....
Simple is Best.

Ctrl+Alt+Design (seattle)
this is going to be great! (knee shy) has been invited to do an installation piece at this year’s JOIN design showcase in seattle! the event is titled Ctrl+Alt+Design, and it will focus on new american design(ers).
the pics from last years show are extremely taser factory, and featured work from seattle based design entities: iacoli & mcallister, ladies & gentlemen, graypants, submaterial, urbancase, and meet me here. this year they’re expanding to provide views from all over the country. we’re excited as fuck just to go, let alone actually be involved!
our piece is to be titled “onward?”. we are hoping to reflect the freshness of what is going on with the event, as well as where we are at...which seems to mix itself into our ideas more than ever recently. it looks solid on paper, and our excitement is growing as preparation and pre-work has begun!
we’ll bring back a flock of photos for sure!
