Cool Hunting
This past weekend we all had a lot of fun playing store at the Winter Market in Dumbo as part of the series of "Curated Corners" masterminded by the event's impresario, Eric Demby. He gave us free reign with the space so we called in the industrious Kiel Mead, who came up with an ingenious installation using a humble material (yarn) to create what looked like a computer-generated projection on one of the walls.
The effect was dramatic and helped create an overall gallery-as-retail space for displaying the wares of some of our favorite designers. (See our earlier posts on the line-up here and here.)
We want to extend a huge thanks to Kiel for donating his ideas and time to making it a success! Also, a big thanks to our own Tim Yu, for putting it all together and seeing it through. Stay tuned for a video and a couple other surprises. In the meantime, there are a few more pics of the space after the jump.

We're less then 24 hours away from our debut at the Brooklyn Flea and we're super excited about how it's shaping up. We've have a few new items to share since our last post that we thought you might also enjoy. Warm weather is on the horizon but fluctuating temperatures still leave us reaching for our Freehands, those awesome gloves that keep your fingers...
We're gearing up for our own little shop at the Brooklyn Flea next weekend as part of the series of "curated corners" the organizers put together and we thought we'd give you a sneak peek at some of the products we'll be peddling. What's more, Kiel Mead is not only providing his quirky designs like the Birdie light and accessories shown above, but the...
Cool Hunting sponsored an old-school early-'90s jam at the Thrillist Loft earlier this week as part of their week of parties. Absolut Vodka supplied an open bar, calling for many drinks, dances and adventurous picture poses. The classic tunes—from Black Street to SWV—supplied by the illustrious DJ Sharee got the dancefloor going, assisted by a breakdancing troupe. We'd like to shout out our thanks...
