Follow the Leader by Josh Rubin

Follow the Leader is like a graphic design version of the Surrealist game, The Exquisite Corpse. The project comes out of Tokyo Style in Gothenburg and resulted in a 9 Meter tall by 1 Meter wide masterpiece. Four Japanese designers and four Swedish designers each had 6 hour turns and had to use the bottom 10 cm from the previous work. It's too tall to display here, so click through to continue.

Ancient Japan in Milan
If design is in the details, at this year's Milan furniture fair the key shift is away from flawless surfaces and towards Japan's ancient aesthetic of wabi sabi, which rests on the concept that beauty is imperfect, impermanent and incomplete. In today's often jejune design world, it's refreshing to see the remnants of the artisan's work, reflecting the randomness of nature instead of what...
Airstream x MINI Cooper S Clubman x Republic of Fritz Hansen
For someone like myself who grew up traveling in converted buses, this new Republic of Fritz Hansen-designed Airstream and coordinating modified MINI Cooper S Clubman doesn't look exactly practical, but it does look dreamy. At 6.8 meters long (about 22 feet), the Airstream trailer makes for a relatively compact way to make a road-trip luxurious—for fans of both sea and sun. Incorporating neoprene, acid...
