Pink Expenses by Josh Rubin
I just remembered this brilliant little project (circa 2003) from our friends over at The Royal Society for the Protection of Designers (aka Pink928). Pink Expenses is a receipt generator that would be handy to the corporate traveller if the content was a little more work-place friendly. To use it just select who serviced you and where, then choose your three slutty courses. The next screen will have a ready-to-print receipt that documents your sexcapades. There are no naughty pictures so unless your boss is looking over your shoulder right now, it's work safe. Filthy Mouth, the RSPD's earlier project isn't so work safe, so be sure to check it out and see what your Gran is really thinking.

Morning Message Pillow
Some of us are less than charming before we've had our morning coffee, but London-based designer James McAdam may have found a way to put an end to misdirected morning grumpiness. His Morning Message Pillow leaves the phrase "Good Morning Sweetheart" indented on your well-rested cheek. Playing on the common sight of cheeks imprinted with pillowcase wrinkles, It's a brilliant example of design that...

Celebrity Weighing Scales
The number of pounds you weigh is pretty much arbitrary unless you are a pro boxer, but the folks at Angry understand that "nobody wants to weigh a plain old number these days." The Celebrity Weighing Scale helps you see how you compare to your fave celebs, historical figures, and made-up characters. Settings that range from Baby Jesus to King Kong, and include Chuck...

Woofer
Though I'm not sure what the sound quality is like, this Woofer is brilliant sculptural double entendre none-the-less. Created by Buro Vormkrijgers, a Dutch design studio founded by Sander Mulder and Dave Keune, the headless dog speaker system is available as a single woofer or a pair of stereo speakers. The team is also planning to follow-up with Tweeter, a bird-like desktop speaker system....

Interview with Maarten Baas
The most talked about exhibition during the Salone del Mobile was that by Maarten Baas. Set within the chaotic mess of a working auto garage in the Zona Tortona, the show covered works to date, along with a preview of new collections for Contrasts Gallery and Established & Sons Limited. The choice of space initially felt to me like a commentary on the hyper-produced...

Farm
Staged in an immaculate, white gabled space in the Navigli neighborhood in Milan, Studio Job recently previewed their latest monumental work in conjunction with the Eindhoven-based designhuis. The installation, called Farm, draws inspiration from traditional farming economies of the Dutch lowlands, and is composed of twenty-four cast bronze objects and six pieces of Palissander wood furniture. Continuing the leitmotif developed in last year's Homework...

Joost & Kiki: reCollections
While the Italians were rightfully celebrating their design legacy at the Triennale with an exhibition called "What is Italian Design?," I find it worth noting that once again, Dutch design was proving to be the most radical, poetic, soul-searching work at the Salone del Mobile. On the last day of the fair, I doubled back to the Zona Tortona to see “reCollections,” an exhibition...
