Deckchair Dreams 2007 by Tim Yu
Deckchair Dreams is a project by the The Royal Parks Foundation, benefiting London’s eight Royal Parks. Twenty-five artists including Will Young, Blek le Rat, Damien Hirst and even a few school children were asked to decorate canvas deckchairs used throughout the parks.
Started in 2005, this year the project aims to highlight the trees and wildlife of the eight Royal Parks. Some of the chairs are available for purchase in very limited quantities or visitors can rent them for £2 for four hour sessions until October 2007.

Lazy Oaf Pimp My Pumps
The result of an exhibit called "Pimp My Pump", Lazy Oaf's off-the-wall designer shoes are inventive one-offs all using the classic plimsol as a canvas. Definitely in the same vein as French artist Manu Angot and our own Seth Brau, the collection includes works by such up-and-coming talents as Kate Moross, Brennan & Burch (pictured right) and Peskimo (pictured center). We like them all,...

Michael Costiff for World Archive
Designer and photographer Michael Costiff designed these t-shirts for World Archive. An eclectic collection of artifacts and symbols from around the world tweaked with a twist of wit and pressed onto cotton, the t-shirts are an irreverent take on idolatry. It looks as if he took a t-shirt of Karl Marx and pressed it onto another t-shirt, wrinkles and all (pictured). This t-shirt and...

Von Totebags and T-Shirts
Award-winning London based illustrator Von has long been a CH favorite so when he decided to launch a range of tees and totes we grabbed the chance to find out more. Why did you decide to brand into fashion now? As much as t-shirts have been done a million times before I still get excited when I come across a really nice design printed...

Saskia Olde Wolbers
by Laurice Parkin The video art of Saskia Olde Wolbers is transfixing to watch not only for the dreamlike fluidity accompanied by surreal narrative, but also to see the intensely complex handmade models that the artists films. These miniature sets combine both the architectural space and uniquely constructed parts to bring the artist's imaginative landscape to life. Unpopulated and desolate, the worlds are beautiful, strange...

Milan Design Week 2008: Day One
While today marks the official first day of the Salone del Mobile in Milan, the crowds were already chomping at the bit yesterday afternoon in the Zona Tortona, a satellite exhibition area that has taken on as much importance as the sprawling Fiera Milano designed by Massimiliano Fuksas. The weather on Tuesday was incredible, the sky an immaculate blue, and the press drifted in...
