Gehard Demetz makes some incredibly amazing wood carvings that are mysterious, eerie, beautiful, and full of emotion! I’m not sure what the story is behind each one of these pieces but I’d love to find out.
See several of his wood carving pieces after the jump.
Check out this interior office space designed by Hofman Dujardin Architects. The Law firm is broken up into 2 different spaces; colorful and neutral. The colorful space caught my attention because the color gradient floors placed based on the suns movement. Warmer colors are in the shadowed areas and sunny areas get the cooler greens and blues. While walking down the hall, the floor gradually changes colors.
With all those color studies out there about what makes you work more or slower, I wonder if this law firm discovers this through their floors. Would make me rethink what I’m wearing each day based on which rooms I had meetings in.
Hmmm, perhaps one day we wont be looking at pixels on a screen, but walking right into them thanks to these firefly LED flying bots. I’d like to imagine them as LED dust instead. Watch the video here.
Happy Holiday to everyone. I’ll be out in Hong Kong for the break and will be back with some goodies to post most likely dealing with food, shopping, and culture.
If you have not already, please join the Facebook Fan page here which I post to often but write less and it’s open for fans to post to as well. I’ll post a few goodies I shared on the fan page below recently for the holiday break:
Betsy Vanlangen has some mesmerizing photography compositions on her website, especially mixing food and materials with people. Makes ya think after looking though her portfolio of work. Lots of inspiration!

I’ve seen tons of creative Halloween costumes in the past, but with the popularity of big head Wii characters and DYI costumes, I’d have to give Eric Testroete an awesome star for his big head paper kraft costume this year which as he mentions is very much like Bert Simons projects (posted before). I’m not sure how he ate candy or sipped some goodies that night, but it sure is an eye opener!
Cool!
“A project of Audiochmura (Audiocloud) was inspired by the concept of Audioarchitektura (Sonicarchitecture) – brainchild of artist Piotr Adamski and mode:lina. It is a sonic installation using corrugated pipes as amplifiers emitting sounds gathered around its actual position. The shape of a cloud relates to something ephemeral, almost non-existent and likely to move.”
