THAT’S a jump!
Posted in Design, Miscellaneous Moss - Written by Siobhan O'Brien on August 20, 2009 - 0 CommentsThis truly spectacular example of design was masterminded by Julien de Smedt of the Copenhagen based JDS Architects.The truly astounding Holmenkollen Ski Jump in Oslo, Norway recently came out tops in an international design competition, but the project won’t be unveiled until the World Championships in 2011. The talented Mr. De Smedt has a swag of design awards under his belt. In 2004, his Stavanger Concert Hall, was applauded “the world’s best concert hall” at the Venice Biennale; while his Maritime Youth House was nominated for the Mies van der Rohe Award and later took out London’s AR+D Award. For an in depth interview with Julien have a look at the interviews section on Designboom.
Tord not..ahhem…Turd
Posted in Design - Written by siobhan on August 11, 2009 - 0 CommentsDutch designer Tord Boontje is undoubtably one of my all-time favourite contemporary designers. Among his many accolades, Tord has worked in the fashion industry designing eyewear for Alexander McQueen and describes himself as working on the cusp of design, craft and the visual arts. His many, varied talents cross the boundaries between glassware, lighting and furniture; with a look that is intricate, delicate, organic, feminine – even. Born in 1968, a brief biography of his life which appears on the dedece website, claims that in 1969 he was “done with breastfeeding”, while in 1977 he buried his guinea pig in the garden. What can I say? We’ve all been there I suppose…

Richard Woods: The Nature Show
Posted in Design - Written by siobhan on August 1, 2009 - 0 CommentsThis blog is not just about fashion. It is about all the things that inspire me and design certainly falls into that category into that category – art is another. In fact, I believe that all artistry/creativity is intertwined. Why do we need to differentiate between various forms of creativity, anyway? It’s just that people usually like things in neat, compartmentalised boxes. Poor dears. This cottage by British artist Richard Woods rocks. It blurs the boundaries between reality and fantasy. And makes you want to break off a piece and eat it — a bit like Hansel and Gretel’s place. What I like about Woods’ work is that’s he’s experimental, organic and a bit DIY…
