A Mobile Phone Concept by Mac Funamizu





I wish this concept is developed one day so that I can have it on T-mobile...Lol I'm just a loyal customer. But T-mobile needs to start paying me lol. Mac Funamizu is an in-house web/graphic/industrial designer working in Tokyo, Japan. He loves Apple Macintosh & iPods, Google and Starbucks, so most of his concepts designs are about their products.

START WARS: Star Wars under construction in Dubai











Star Wars were meant to happen a long time ago in a galaxy far, far away, but what if they actually happened on Earth? French photographer Cédric Delsaux in his series of photos called "The Dark Lens" imagined the scene if Star Wars was set in Dubai of all places. You might wonder why Dubai. The main reason is that with the current economic crisis, a lot of buildings under construction haven’t been completed. The city is littered with cranes that aren’t building anything anymore. Needless to say, this creates an eerie, surreal backdrop for these images.

Garment Installations by Derick Melander





The New York based artist Derick Melander is a jack-of-all-trades: trained as music programmer and filmmaker and being a passionate musician he taught nursery school before he moved into his atelier and concentrated on his visual art. Melander’s works are architectural installations and sculptures, composed of carefully stacked and folded second-hand clothing.

“As clothing wears, fades, stains and stretches it becomes an intimate record of our physical presence. It traces the edge of the body, defining the boundary between the individual and the outside world. The clothing used for these works is folded to exact dimensions and attention is paid to the ordering of the garments. For example, the sequence can relate to the way we layer the clothing we wear or the clothing can be sorted by color, gender or by the order that it was received. Individual components are often connected together with shirt sleeves, pant legs and belts forming bridge-like appendages”, Derick Melander explains.
