Magnetic Curtains

Sunday, November 23rd, 2008

We think these magnetic curtains by Florian Kräutli are brilliant. You can push and pull them into any shape you like, allowing you to create a real statement at your windows. The curtains are due to be put into production shortly by Amsterdam-based ‘Droog Design’. We hope they’re released soon so we can get some for the office!

Crate stuff!

Wednesday, November 19th, 2008

We came across an interesting concept the other day – recycled shipping containers that make the perfect playground and learning centres for children living in social housing in Melbourne, Australia. Not only are they low cost but they’re environmentally sound, and a socially responsible solution too.
