A collection of ideas, experiments, and observations that don’t fit neatly into a defined category… maybe i’ll sort them one day.

The fatherly duo of Palmer & Sons started two years ago when Jack and Nik Palmer set off to learn the process of leather work and old style carpentry. From their respective industries irrelevant of bag-making the two started off creating a collection of bags which were simple in philosophy; Create a collection of bags to the best of their ability and from heritage materials with a method that best suits a certain functionality aspect. Aside from bags and suitcases, leather cuffs are also in the collection with more pieces on the way. The words of Nik Palmer regarding his project can be seen below…

The Blood Lamp only works once, and you need to add of a drop of your blood to activate it! The idea is to stop and think about how badly you need light before you use it. Designer Mike Thompson created the lamp in order to draw attention to how much energy we waste.

Almo, a leading office supplies company based in the UK, selected us to re-imagine their corporate identity by creating a new logo, stationery, packaging, and product catalogues.
By abstracting the company’s initials, A and O, into a triangle and circle we created a recurring motif that reinforces brand recognition;so the products become a background of the visual identity. The green and black colour scheme was chosen to reflect the company’s carbon-neutral credentials, underlined by the use of recycled paper throughout all applications.

Dubbed as “a celebration of creativity”, Diesel CULTivate launched last night with an opening cocktail at the Diesel Planet Store in Central, Hong Kong. The basement of the store was transformed into an outdoor hawker-booth and local-café setting. Dedicated detail was paid to recreate the traditional “Hong Kong style” environment: Beer was served with curry fishballs, aged street vendors gave out jasmine flowers and handmade model-clay sculptures, and a traditional Chinese calligrapher painted fortune notes. On display was interesting representations of the traditional Hong Kong hawker booth by artists: Hitotzuki – Kami + Sasu (Tokyo), Lady Aiko (New York), Bomin Kim (Seoul), Black Panda (New York/Denver), Gwen Yip (Hong Kong), Anton Lopez (Hong Kong), University of Hong Kong Faculty of Architecture/Control Shift (Hong Kong), Lo Koon-Chiu (Hong Kong) and, of course, Suitman (New York/Tokyo/Hong Kong).

On of my favorites, John Scarisbrick, ditches the enigmatic and complex style of his Diesel campaigns and goes for a fun energetic vibe in the new Fall/Winter 09-10 ads for Swedish underwear brand Björn Borg. (via Homotography)
