Pharmacy Industry Spring/Summer 2009 Collection
Italian brand Pharmacy Industry has been producing quality collections for a while now. Their new Spring/Summer 2009 Collection goes back to the roots and features a line-up of strong and colorful fleece pieces. All fleece is produced in Italy, making sure the quality and cut are right. Graphics this season are simple, yet fun. Our favorite pieces include their new fleece baseball jacket and cardigan.
Redrock Hybrid Cinema Rig for DSLRs
The latest dSLRs shoot excellent HD video, as long as you don't mind the shakiness. Redrock, who released some of the first pro solutions to this problem, have just announced a product that's downright buyable.
Redrock's Hybrid Cinema Rig is both lighter than cheaper than the company's earlier offerings. Starting at $195, the stabilizing frame allows attachments like LCDs and mics, while offering an easier means to focus on the fly. Compatible with the Canon EOS 5D Mark II, Canon EOS Rebel T1i, Nikon D90, and Panasonic Lumix GH1, peripherals like this one are just the sort of dSLR accessories the industry needs for indie filmmakers to start take these still cameras seriously.
Stardust Light Furniture
Stardust is a set of sofas and pillows that illuminate from within. Add a rotating disco ball, lava lamps, and a couple of awesome Philips LivingColors lights, and your psychedelic apartment will be complete.
These new models are called Mappamondo (Globe), Bucco Bianco (White Hole), and Galassia (Galaxy). They are made of Via Lattea—italian for the raspberry-flavored Milky Way—a white fabric assembled around carbon-based black threads which they claim is indestructible.
Khyber Ridge / Studio NminusOne
The Khyber Ridge house was commissioned by a professional snowboarder. The strategy takes its cue from the intimate engagement of a shredder following the line of a mountain; it is one of maximum engagement with the site. The house is distributed along a steep slope, developing diverse tactical relations to the landscape, the surrounding views and the internal functions or program of the house.
buroJET
I love it when I stumble upon a great find totally organically...I was googling for more information for an upcoming post and came across buroJET's April '09 newsletter instead...I love the porcelain Pig Snout Cup, designed in collaboration with Jorine Oosterhoff. At first glance the cup looks pretty standard - it's only when you drink from it that you (or others) are aware of the full cup design.
The Out of the Blue cup and saucer (below) was designed for a ceramics competition for the Musee de Carouge in Switzerland. I love the way that the handle is created from the rim of the cup, and the colorful interior. Also very nice - the Bookend Bunny. Peekaboo!
