Without a doubt the COOLEST thing I have seen for a long time!!
I found these here. I can’t read anything on the site so have no idea whats its all about… But these guys rock.
Iain’s work is described as surreal and unique in its own way. Using mostly pencil, watercolours and pigment pens he creates portraits of ordinary people but create them in an unusual way by embelishing patterns and watercolour effects into the portrait to give a vivid explosion effect. Making there faces from something plain to somthing entirely bizzare and wonderful at the same time.
I stumbled across Kate’s character illustrations on Behance and I now have several new super hero crushes. These girls are amazing and damn sexy! Kate resides in Kiev, Ukraine. Her website (or atleast the link from Behance) isn’t in english so I can’t tell you anything more about her. But her work is slick. I also think hooded capes need to start making an appearance in suitable fashion collections.
Handsome swimwear is not just your run-of-the-mill swimwear.
Each piece is made by hand, with the finest quality Italian Lycra, printed with high density inks using a placement sublimation process which is tedious to say the least.
Each design is a limited edition. Some are sourced from 000’s of retro images and some designed by their in-house artist often using dozens of images to get the look and feel just right.

SUPER, by RETROSUPERFUTURE®, ignited the phenomenon of acetate sunglasses. They are made in multiple color graduations, which has generated a big trend starting in 2007. Super is the 1rst brand to produce a complete range of colorful fashion sunglasses combining these characteristics together with a very high quality manufacturing process. SUPER sunglasses are made to the highest possible standards, hand made in Italy by the best manufacturers and with the best materials. For this reason, SUPER also decided to adopt ZEISS lenses, which guarantee an extremely high level of protection to the eyes in all conditions. Since their introduction, artists, celebrities, sports athletes and trendsetters have been wearing SUPER sunglasses. Kanye West, Daft Punk, Who Made Who, Justice, Pedro Winter (and his “Ed Crew”), Simian Mobile Disco, CSS, St. Vincent, The Kills, Elio Fiorucci, Sienna MIller, Jessica Alba and Valentino Rossi are just a few who have been seen sporting a SUPER.
Collection of Cool is a great new shopping space in the vast clutter of online boutiques. The store has just launched and strives to provide a retail experience not found elsewhere. All their products have a design edge, are unique, interesting and not readily available in mainstream stores… so now you know why I like them! Besides the obvious rwtail therapy Collection of Cool offers, its also an amazingly slick and style’n designed website with great usability. Go have some fun doing your christmas shopping!

Still a student at l’Ecole de Design Nantes Atlantique in France, Stephanie Choplin has a couple of really nice product designs under her belt already. Check em.
Some of Fredrik’s work leaves me hanging. But there’s a lot of good coming out of his brain. Anyone who produces work aimed toward the real cracks in the world has my respect.
