Martell, the oldest of the great Cognac houses, has collaborated with iconic French architect Jean Nouvel on a new project. "The Martell Amber Lamp by Jean Nouvel" is a stunning object of design which will be produced in limited edition: Martell Nouvel was inspired by the warm colors and reflections in Martell cognac and by the way the light radiates throughout the bottle.
This luminous sculpture consists of an imposing glass bulb with a tall metal staff*. Its striking architecture glows with life and captivates with sleek, poetic charm. Jean Nouvel has expressed his full talent in creating not so much a lamp, but a light (an amber light) that emits endless luminous pulses in shimmering golden and copper waves. The waves modulate the space by creating a warm, calm atmosphere for reflection, for the pleasure of tasting, a refined art of living or the enjoyment of a shared experience.

If you have Doctor in front of your name people assume you are very clever and you must know a lot, especially in the subject you are doctor in. This would be no different for Dr Denim. Ok it’s not actually a person more a family company, but boy do they know a lot about denim and jeans. Hailing from Sweden and having a mixed heritage of fishing and fashion they dedicate their lives to making the perfect pair of jeans. Starting from the design and choice of supplier, and going through to different weights and washes. They have taken apart the very idea of “a pair of jeans” played and tweaked with it then put it back together with great effect. If you are a denim lover like me then find your nearest supplier they have them world wide and get yourself a pair of Dr Denim jeans.
No, it's not an orange squeezer. This light and little object is weezy, a revolutionary blueetooth device, developed by an italian company, which allows you to listen to music stored in your mobile devices or computer directly through your stereo.
The design was made in Milan, from a young but very promising italian designer, Samuele Montorfano. The object, retro and minimal, suits every contest and will give a modern touch to your old but still good workin stereo. Weezy plays any phone’s music library on any stereo system using Bluetooth connection. It sets you free from wires and docks. Just plug weezy in your stereo and connect your phone/tablet/PC to weezy via Bluetooth. Forgot the instructions manuals. It can be paired with up to 9 devices, and works in a range of 100m. Ah, and if you use with your phone, it mutes automatically when there's an incoming phone call. What you need more? Maybe just 69€ to buy it online... Take a look at the nice promo video after the jump.

Nato a Milano nel 2009, Sunettes è un nuovo brand di sunglasses dalla forma e dal concetto tutto 60's. Di quegli anni, i designer Linda Ovadia e Matteo Denti hanno ripreso lo spirito anticonformista della classe intellettuale che dal basso dettava moda e stile, adattandolo ai nostri tempi. L'unico modello tondo, declinato in differenti colori e lenti, interamente di celluloide, rende il marchio inconfondibile. L'attenzione al packaging, realizzato dai maestri cartai di Cremona, e alla qualità delle lenti CR39 incorniciano il coloratissimo progetto nel Made in Italy. I nuovi creativi e gli hippie contemporanei avranno nuove lenti da cui guardare il mondo..

Ugly is beautiful. Berlin located architect Cord Woywod found a witty way conserving former GDR architecture. His "edition Faltplatte“ covers several cardboard models of famous former GDR buildings, which help you to recall longtime forgotten architectonic classics (scale 1:400). „GDR architecture is to be destroyed, demolished or undertaken a funny redesign. All traces of former socialism design disappear to be forgotten,“ Woywod ...
