Cool Hunting
Celebrating their 25th year in print, i-D Magazine teamed up with Argentine designer Alejandro Sarmiento and the Malba, Buenos Aires' modern art museum, to create this storage container for i-D back issues. The "i-D Brick" features a honeycomb design that "elevates your mags to art book status" and comes either empty for $49 or with 11 or 12 of some of i-D's rarest issues for $400.
Currently available at the Malba store and at London's Fashion and Textile Museum, the collectable edition will travel throughout 2006 to Paris, Tokyo, New York, Sao Paulo, Hong Kong, and Beijing with an exhibition called i-Dentity. The show celebrates two and a half decades of i-D, including work by Hussein Chalayan, JT Leroy, Wolfgang Tillmans and curated by the magazine's founder, creative director, and editor-in-chief Terry Jones.

Monocle—the magazine that covers international affairs, global business, culture and design—teamed up with Drakes London to create a new line of Merino wool scarves for the tenth and latest product collaboration for the Monocle Magazine Shop of luxurious goods. Drakes is perhaps best known for their bespoke ties, and their elegantly woven scarves don't get enough attention. Produced in the heart of London and...
From the original ReadyMakers themselves (founders Shoshana Berger and Grace Hawthorne) comes this new book full of the same kind of clever, well-designed projects that have earned ReadyMade props from the National Magazine Awards and design snobs alike. An idea-well of projects includes a Moss-worthy glass water bottle chandelier (pictured after the jump) to instructions that suggest readers cut a window in the cover...
A little over a week ago on 14 June 2009 one of my favorite magazines, The New York Times Magazine, quietly unveiled a new design and format in an effort to cut costs and waste (there were two artist designed covers for the 14 June issue, shown above). Announced in that issue's editor's letter by Gerald Marzorati, I'm surprised how under the radar it...
The impending fear of the end for print magazines seems to have only inspired publishers to prove everyone wrong by refining and, at times, redesigning their pages. This year's finalists for best magazine design, announced by the Society of Publication Designers—or SPD— are some of the best we've seen. While some of the usual suspects were rightfully chosen—like Wired, W, GQ and Dwell—the SPD's...
We were lucky enough to attend the opening for the MoMA Design Store's new product collection, Destination Seoul, which highlights designers and products from South Korea. Buyers selected young, emerging Korean designers and their creations across a range of categories for a diverse curatorial of goods usually only found on the peninsula. As part of the MoMA Design Store's destination series and sponsored by...
No matter your religious beliefs, one thing we can probably all agree on is how laborious it is to read the Bible. A Swedish outfit called Illuminated World hopes to change that notion by creating Bible Illuminated, a relevant version of the historical book. Set in magazine format, the New Testament publication includes the same time-honored stories paired with photos that conceptualize how they...
