Day Re – Extended Life Of A Toilet Paper Core
Do you really care about your toilet paper? Is its lifecycle really worth a mention? Do we want to discuss toilet-habits on YD? So many questions…and there is only one answer for this… “Day Re”! The deal is that once you’re done with the tissue part of the toilet paper roll, you toss the brown core into the trash, right? However if you buy a Day Re toilet roll…you just extended its life and purpose on earth! The core comes with a sticker tab that unfolds to a memo pad. Good enough to take daily or weekly notes! Question is; do we want toilet paper to be like a coconut tree and use every bit of it? Or do we just want some soft tissues to wipe our bums clean, and that’s the end of its story! You decide. | via

T-SHIRT PARTY
Anche la moda, oggi, si fa concettuale. Con il progetto T-SHIRT PARTY, Stan Still dà uno schiaffo ad anni e anni di cultura stilistica e “vintage” americana rafforzando il London style con un sito. Nessun negozio, nessuna campagna pubblicitaria per ciò che sarà solo un’esperienza di un anno, in cui ogni settimana, verrà proposta una t-shirt bianca arricchita da una stampa nata dalla visione di collaboratori di gran fama (tra cui Daniel David Freeman e Gouw Ferry, direttore dei video degli XX, Vampire Weekend e Lightspeed Champion). Ogni maglietta è accompagnata da un video ispiratore dell’idea, dove musica e cultura visiva underground producono motivi di riflessione a chi, la città di Londra, la vive, la ama, la detesta.
Bustler
Bustler è un brand emergente italiano che si è fatto notare nel Padiglione New Beat, dedicato ai giovani creativi di tutto il mondo, durante Pitti Immagine Uomo 78.
La collezione si ispira ai temi più disparati del vivere quotidiano ma trattati con ironia e sfrontatezza; il nome scelto per la prima linea di T-shirt non lascia dubbi: ”Accept Candies from Stranger”, modo originale per comunicare che nel mondo di oggi i giovani si possono avventurare da soli, aprirsi alle novità e accettare idee , spunti e relazioni anche da chi non si conosce . Un messaggio sociale che viaggia sul cotone di uno dei capi più sfruttati dell’universo maschile.
The Art of Analog Computing
The premise of this short film is to represent the digital tools and interfaces we use daily in an analog way. In the analog office, your computer desktop becomes your actual desk, your inbox gets flooded with Spam cans, the server runs past you multiple times a day (and perhaps crashes every now and then), and Twitter users follow each other around the space. This concept is essentially just for fun but also reminds us just how digitally connected we all are. The video was acted and produced entirely by the Meltmedia team and filmed in the Meltmedia office. We hope you enjoy watching it as much as we enjoyed making it.

Honour your city on CitID
CitID is an ambitious project aiming to gain global consciousness by giving a (type)face to every city worldwide, big or small, rich or poor, famous or infamous, well-known or unheard-of. To be more precise, it is a collection of city logos from all over the world submitted by creative people with a dash of urban pride.
If you are a graphic aficionado, then you’ll get completely Xmas-morningy: first, you’ll be looking for your hometown, obviously; then you’ll move on to cities you’ve visited; then you’ll check out weird places like Tegucigalpa or Bandar Seri Begawan, and so on…
Houette ABSTRACT PAINTINGS
Hiding in the back room of 0fr System is a series generically entitled: Abstract Paintings. Except there’s nothing generic about Charlotte Houette’s pieces hanging on the stoic walls. This Parisian artist allows color to bleed across fine-grain patterns and sharp geometries. Subtle contracts in color against plays in texture bring each piece alive, even in the grimace of the flourescent lighting. (And you thought Paris was only good for Les Nymphéas.) On until May 2, so hurry!
