INSPIRATION // Hort Design Firm

Eike Koenig owns the German Design Firm Hort. This interview is really inspiring, so watch it.


And now lean back and watch some one speaking about his job and working in a team by using phrases like “Everyday is like christmas for me.. you know, they give me something and I open this present and I am really surprised about it..” Awesome!!!

Letter Press Jewelry

Erica Wiener (HAHAHAHAHA)
Designs some really bad ass letter press jewelry. She has designed old moveable type into silver and gold pendants that make me jealous.

The Gold pendant (14k gold) runs at 75.00. While the silver is only 65.00. Defiantly a cool idea for a present this coming holiday. So head over to Erica Wiener's (haha) site and check out all her amazing jewelry.


and yes I'm not above laughing at words...

Bio Design

Cleverly cut & photographed leaves are so amazing.
Makes me wish I designed it.
