Thwart Design by Josh Spear
Thwart Design is an art and design collective, with an interesting line of products. Their aim is "to generate an assortment of projects from conceptual to marketable, our mantra being the pursuit of raw creativity." It's all in their effort to break the mediocrity of commercial art forms. They don't want creativity to lie dormant, and they are seeking like-minded individuals to collaborate with them on all realms. Check out the site for some more of their products, these Coast-it's are totally cute-- "bar napkins no longer will be the host of great ideas".
