LOOP Design by Josh Rubin
LOOP Design showed their latest and greatest at the annual Silver Spoon Hollywood Buffet-- a benefit for the LA Youth Networks’ homeless teen shelter. Stars come to this buffet of product to shop for a cause. Nicole Ritchis, for example, grabbed the "You Rock" PVC Tote, pictured here.
Led by the creative genius of China Young, LOOP is armed with only impeccable taste and a humble mission: to design products for real, live people-- not focus group or egos. Creating functional, well-designed, smart products with emotion, intelligence and heart is what gets LOOP up in the morning (although coffee helps, too).
check out all of LOOP's latest and greatest in their on-line store.

JUNRO
JUNRO is a very simple online boutique of modern design--with some very elegant and minimalistic products. They're not huge, which is to say they're selective about what they carry and feature, like this sleek Epistola Letter Scale--your outgoing mail can be weighed in easily by using a pencil on one side, while incoming mail can be opened with the shaper knife side. They also...

Freitag Credit Card Wallets
You may already be familiar with the Swiss company, Freitag. They're known for their trendy-yet-individual bags made from old truck tarps.

Paper Vase
Hip and Zen is a new shop offering socially responsible, modern products. This handmade and fairly traded paper vase isn't the colorful wonder that recycled magazine vase was, but the geometric shape and warm tone are still quite pleasing....

Scandinavian Grace
When I heard that Fredrik Larsson, owner of the Williamsburg boutique Scandinavian Grace, was opening an outpost in upstate New York, I had half a mind to take a day trip just to check it out. I still plan to but readers won't need to wait for my trip to view the interior (see more images after the jump). Located on Route 28 in...
