Forcefeed:swede by Lost At E Minor
Australian design team, forcefeed:swede, work across the full spectrum of creative spaces. As well as contributing artwork for 2005’s Basefield exhibition—themed around Aesop’s fables—they have also done some interesting cover artwork for Australian dance act Etherfox and more recently a resin toy customization for The Monkey Show exhibition, curated by AdFunture in Hong Kong. On the back of this, they have been invited to create an official ‘forcefeed:swede’ vinyl toy by a Hong Kong based company—one of only 30 international artists to receive the invite. Pictures of all this work, after the jump.

Analog and Digital Collide in a Burst of Text and LEDs at the ITP Spring 2009 Show
Twice each year students from NYU's Interactive Telecommunications Program (ITP) exhibit their final projects. Ranging between artistic and commercial, conceptual and pragmatic, the work is always inspirational. With every show there seems to be an emergent theme—this year's collision of analog and digital isn't unprecedented, but does deliver new interpretations to get excited about. AL-gorithm, by Alex Kauffmann Alex Kauffmann, the artist behind AL-gorithm,...

Domsai Desk Pets
by Laura Neilson Matteo Cibic's desk tamagotchi, an anthropomorphic planter, is an altogether different creation from his contribution to the "Love Design" exhibition at last month's Design Week in Milan. Where his bedside lamp stylishly doubled as a sex toy, the Domsai, which he showed at the exhibition space Monotono, provides a decidedly more G-rated dose of pleasure. Cibic describes his space-agey little tabletop...

Watermelon-Inspired Design
A few cheeky watermelon-themed products we happened upon recently got us thinking about the summer fruit as a source of design inspiration. While George Nelson's iconic modernist clock ($335 from Pure Modern) is a restrained nod to the melon's oblong shape, most of what's out there appeals to the pink, black and green colorway and the contrast of the exterior rind to the flesh....

Shephard Fairey Obama Commemorative Plates
Poster boy Shephard Fairey really hit the big time when his Obama print was picked up by the Obama Presidential Campaign last year. Having subsequently designed the official Inaugural Poster for Obama, he looks well positioned to become the go-to guy for reshaping how we visualize the White House. If posters aren't your thing, take comfort in knowing that Fairey has also dipped his feet...

Design Miami 2008: Al Sabah Art & Design
Easily the most intelligent, holistic and culturally relevant exhibition in the Miami Design District, Al Sabah's debut of "East meets West" was a revelation. The collection consisted of two components. The charming Dutch designer Pieke Bergmans worked with Sabah for several months, traveling throughout the Middle East, in selecting indigenous furnishings to which she later, back in The Netherlands, applied her viral forms of...

Richard Woods Home Makeover
London-based designer Richard Woods extends his "Super Tudor" style to a home in Woodstock, NY, giving the nearly 30-year-old structure a completely new look. Known for the idiosyncratic faux wood prints he designed with Sebastian Wrong fittingly called "Wrongwoods," the upstate New York home is not surprisingly "a parody of what a weekend house should be" according to contemporary art collector and home owner...
