Web trawler


Solar-do-nothing Machine, Eames Studio, 1957

With an eye on a number of Object studio engagements and finger on the mouse button, I’ve taken the liberty – and will do so on a regular basis – of linking to a selection of websites with content that is germane to some of your current projects, see if you can call them . . .

Cast-off with Radical Lace & Subversive Knitting at the Museum of Arts & Design (used to be the American Craft Museum) in New York.

Move on through to Carlos Garaicoa at the ICA, Philidelphia (also on show at Turbulence, the 3rd Auckland Triennial, in the New Gallery), then hang a right and look in at Nicole Cherubini as well.

Read The Matt & Ron Show written by Sam Jacob of Strange Harvest, then check his practice at FAT, (Fashion, Architecture, Taste).

And finally, DIY joy at foldschool, with a collection of corrugated-cardboard furniture designs for children, freely available for download from Swiss-based designer, Nicola Enrico Stäubli.
