Upon closer inspection of Flat Vernacular’s playful wallpaper, one realizes that it is in fact an exceptionally precise design of stickers. Each pattern consists of thousands of hand-applied stickers, which can be taken off and repositioned at any time.

From their site:
“Ore.e Ref. is challenging designers of the world to NOT design chairs for the rest of the year. It’s that simple.
We believe that the world already has enough chairs. Designing new ones only takes time away from renovating the ones we already have. Consider this the ultimate challenge for you to rethink how sustainable design should be manifested. If not that… Then think about the amount of time you’ll save when you don’t have to design chairs for the rest of the year.”

yum. the pacing can be a little slow, but the jots are nicely done. Tiger in a jar also has several other equally helpful & delicious-looking videos.
nice. ‘suffering bastard’ in the series turned out well too.

higher ground, (by) said the king.
fun fact: I’ve started up a small side project for myself called said the king. so far the brand encompasses 2 shelves - 1 big, 1 small. It’s been designed by, and will be manufactured/shipped/plusplusplus through, ideacious.
We’re 8 early orders away from starting the first manufacturing run of shelves! *and* because it’s going through ideacious, if you order early you’ll earn revenue from every shelf sold, from the 2nd run on, for the next 10 years. awesome. I know.
so for example: next preorder (position 8) earns $5,011 every 100 units
available in 3 types of sustainable wood | made & designed in Cana
$2350 | buy one on ideacious

The Black Book of Colours - what an nice play on expectations and interaction. Now, how else can we misuse materials to explore new perspectives…
“The book is designed as an empathy tool that allows a sighted person to step inside the world of the blind, who experience the world through their fingers rather than their eyes.”
props, as always, to Brain Pickings
great way to embrace the issue & provide pleasing visual feedback

Love love the copywriting.
“State of the obvious” - amazing name
The writing underneath “This is a ….” - great
