This smart honey packaging was designed by Backbone Studio, a super branding studio from Armenia, that I was very happy to discover.
“The most tasty honey is in the beehive. But it is impossible to buy it in a market – it was impossible. Designers of Backbone Studio have made it out of wood and hid the can with honey into the improvised beehive. The simple but simultaneously original wooden wrapper is the message to the nature, ecology and pure taste. You immediately want to open and taste it. And there are no bees!”
Oh my god, these chocolates look fabulous!
For the Maison & Objet trade fair, Japanese design firm Nendo (the people behind The nesting shelf and Seven doors ) created Chocolatexture. While the size and taste is identical, these nine chocolates have been created with unique and exquisite shapes. Each chocolate is directly named after Japanese expressions used to describe texture, like “sube-sube” means smooth edges and corners or “fuwa-fuwa” is soft and airy with many tiny holes.

This place looks like heaven for the kids!
Copenhagen-based COBE Architects designed a kindergarten modeled on simple children’s drawings of houses with peaked roofs: “We have worked to create a simple expression, as a caricature of how a child might draw a house.”

These mechanical pencils are gorgeous. You can find them, together with other beautiful stuff at Ode to things.
Can you imagine living in one of these apartments? The Tower of Cedars is a a residential skyscraper that will be built in Lausanne, Switzerland by the Italian architect Stefano Boeri. It will be 117-meter-tall and the world’s first building to be covered with evergreen trees, totaling a green space of approximately 3,000 square meters.

These ceramic Hasami numbers from House, combined as freestanding fixtures or hanging flower vases. House Industries is a US type foundry that has expanded to design with a very retro feel.
I love number 7 – I think it would also look great in a very large size, like one meter high.
Remember when we tried to retrieve our parent’s old Super 8 movies in order to turn them to VHS and then again save in digital form ? And you always hear that today’s digital cameras cannot compare to the vintage feel of the old super 8 ones.
Well, Kodak has launched a brand new film camera that shoots on 8mm film! Yes, they have gone back to analog (well, almost). The new Super 8 camera comes with an LCD viewfinder and a nice leather handle, but most importantly Kodak takes care of all the processing hassle. So, apparently when you purchase the Super 8 film, you will be buying the film, processing and digital transfer. The lab will send you your developed film back and email you a password to retrieve your digital scans from the cloud.
