The Farm's Paint-by-Numbers by Ami Kealoha
Usually confined to small-scale images of the Last Supper, nature scenes, ballerinas, or other such clichés, this Paint-by-Numbers installation is a psychedelic 3D version by London-based graphic design group The Farm. Created for the London Design Festival's Design Hub at Old Truman Brewery, visitors are invited to don a jumpsuit and use one of the numbered paint buckets to contribute to the piece throughout the coming week.

Milan Design Week 2009: Richard Ginori
The esteemed porcelain manufacturer Richard Ginori, an Italian company with roots dating back to 1735, mounted the most remarkable and talked about installation in the Zona Tortona this year. Conceived by the MIlanese designer Paola Navone, she set the awe-inspiring installation within the Tortona's loftiest warehouse space, a massive volume bathed in resplendent natural light by the soaring skylights overhead. The sweeping installation, which...

Brit Insurance Designs of the Year 2009

Le Corbusier: The Art of Architecture

Blown Ups Lightbulbs
Melding the frivolity of balloon animals with the function of illuminating your personal space, these Blown Ups are quite the eccentric offering from Thelermont Hupton of London. Each piece is crafted with silver finished steel and are made from blown glass that combines the traditional handicraft of a glassworker with the every-day-magic of electric light that we often take for granted. They can be ordered...

Northern Sky Circle x Molo Design
Today's wintery mix in New York has us thinking we're over snow. However, Molo Design studio's installation, Northern Sky Circle—created for Freeze Project in Alaska—will have you happily gathering with friends in this ephemeral outdoor amphitheater comprised of nothing but snow and ice. The Vancouver-based design team began construction on the amphitheater on a pitch black, −30°C morning in Anchorage but they quickly realized...
