Oneline

Austrian designer Klemens Schillinger, currently based in London, has produced Oneline – a lightweight clothes rail.

Oneline consists of only a single component – a mild steel tube. With four bends, the tube becomes a structurally stable yet lightweight object. The design considered the maximum available standard length mild steel tubing (6 metres) in order to produce a clothes rail that leaves no offcuts and requires minimal material investment.

Distances

This still by Poland based photographer Mac Oller is calm, zen-line and minimal in composition. Oller uses long exposure technique photographing in poor lighting or with use of strong neutral density filters in order to achieve this effect of solitude and oneness.

Cardboard Clutch

Pieces from Raf Simons‘ final menswear collection for Jil Sander (Autumn/Winter 2012) have now made their appearance in retail stores. The must have accessory is a clutch resembling the form of a sandwich bag. The clutch comes in two distinctly different fabrics: leather and coated paper (also in black).

Period Clock

Tamer Koseli is a Swiss multidisciplinary designer currently living in Istanbul. Koseli has recently created an unusual wall clock, named Period Clock.

The clock is composed of just three moving circles that indicate the time in a new and intuitive way. The large and medium circles that make up the main clock face rotate to indicate the hour while the smaller circle within the medium hour circle indicates the minutes. It also glows in the dark, making it easy to tell time at night.

Olympic Rings of Infographics

A infographics project titled oceaniaeuropeamericasafricaasia by advertising creative Gustavo Sousa embodies more than just the intention of spreading awareness on global issues. It challenges our own knowledge of current affairs and assumptions of design and colors. Using the Olympic symbol of the 5 colored circles aptly in time with the 2012 summer games in London, Gustavo chose to depict current social concerns in a short video while categorizing a color in relation to each of the continents.

ReWrap

The sleeves by reWrap are created according to the Cradle to Cradle principle. This means: 100% reusable materials, 100% renewable energy and 100% social production. The sleeves are made of felt (98%) and yarn (2%) and are fully biodegradable. To avoid unnecessary use of materials for the label, the logo is stamped into the sleeve, a nice detail. By time the logo will slowly fade. The makers expected the use time to be 5 years and after use your sleeve will turn into compost rather than waste.

The sleeves – available for laptop, Macbook, iPad and iPhone – are sewn together in a small Amsterdam located workshop that provides employment to people with a handicap.
