Focus sur Cerise Doucède, une photographe française qui a imaginé une série d’images appelée « Égarements » proposant d’illustrer visuellement le vagabondage de différentes pensées. Une idée simple très bien réalisée avec la suspension de milliers d’objets, à découvrir dans la suite de l’article.
In this remix British producer Zwolf builds on the haunting, fractured vocals of the original track with a glitchy, fast-paced electronic beat.
The original track by Atlas (aka singer Sarah Hezen) is remarkable in its own right. You can see the music video for it here.

by Paul Cantagallo As the dubious figure of the “mixologist” continues to get promoted on shows like Portlandia and in music video spoofs, a new generation of bartenders are looking for inspiration in, of all places, the kitchen. Among them is Gabriella Mlynarczyk of the restaurant ink. in Los Angeles….

An urbane, reasoned one, but nonetheless…
If you aren’t up on NYC design drama, last week, in what one would hope is a publicity stunt and not a self-serious act of protest, Quirky, an invention-development company, put up a billboard and gathered a crowd to draw attention to the similarities between a product they brought to market in 2009 and one OXO, the housewares company, did recently.
Here is the PDF of their response: OXO FINAL Response

 | “Give a girl the right pair of shoes and she will conquer the world.” said Marilyn Monroe. Putting on a chic and cute pair of heels makes us feel unique and like a true fashionista. That is exactly why we love this Charles David ‘Sway’ Pump. Simple and classy designed point-toe pump is upgraded with sleek silver mirror finish. The glossy patent leather adds liquid shine boosted by a skinny wrapped heel. Works great with your everyday outfit and will also glam your look for the night. |
The pared-down logos found on vintage Japanese cameras inspired Istanbul-based design consultancy Antrepo to create conceptual minimal logos for web brands like Facebook, Google and YouTube (+ slideshow).
Antrepo, led by designer Mehmet Gozetlik, based the Made in Japan project on 35mm SLR cameras manufactured in the 1970s and 1980s.
The designers noticed that cameras made by Canon, Nikon, Pentax and Minolta in that period all featured simple line drawings in place of the brands’ logos, which were normally much bolder.
The line drawings cut production costs by making them easier to apply to the metal camera bodies, Gozetlik explained to Dezeen.
Antrepo took the colourful logos of contemporary web-based companies and services like Instagram, eBay and Twitter and turned them into stark monochrome designs.
The new logos appear to be etched into metal, echoing the appearance of the vintage cameras.
We previously featured Antrepo’s minimalist take on well-known food packaging designs.
Earlier this month we reported that famous brands including Heinz, Marmite and Levi’s had produced “unbranded” versions of their products for sale at London department store Selfridges.
Last week American Airlines unveiled a new logo and livery for its aeroplanes, while designer Yves Béhar recently revamped the packaging of skincare brand Nivea – see all graphic design on Dezeen.
Here’s more information from Antrepo:
Made in Japan
Canon AE-1, Nikon FTn, Ashai Pentax ESII, Minolta XG-1 – these cameras are some of the Japanese 35mm SLR cameras from the vintage ’70s and ’80s, the “Made in Japan” era, when Japan set the global standard of producing quality.
When we take a look at the vintage 35mm cameras, we notice that almost all of these brands used the same style for their logos and typography – line-based logos and extended-outline fonts.
Almost all of these brands used bold logos on their packaging or advertising in the ’70s and ’80s.
The production industry created line-based logos for the metal bodies, probably to cut down the production costs. So we try to see the digital world in the same perspective of this vintage style.

In 2009 Konstantin Grcic designed the Table B, launching BD Barcelona’s Extrusion line of furniture. Sporting an extruded aluminum tabletop, the Table B came with three distinct leg options: Chunky concrete, cleanly-crafted oak or a web of stainless steel rods.
In 2010 Grcic followed up with the B Chair, made from ash with a dash of aluminum. The folding chair was designed to neatly nest into a horiztonal stack.
