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...

Lyle Owerko's Boombox GelaSkins
by Julie Wolfson Photographer Lyle Owerko's Boombox series for GelaSkins is the latest (and one of our favorite) graphic tributes to the giant stereos that ruled the '80s. His take on the trend draws on his personal collection of 42 ghetto blasters, which he's been amassing for their ostentatious, industrial look since the mid-'90s. The result is a range of Owerko's reverent images printed on...
