Found Functions

30 May

Found functions. You really can’t beat anything that is found in nature. The design is perfect and even when flawed shows amazing beauty. These images from Fubiz.net show the math and function behind mother nature’s design. Enjoy Happy Sunday.

Happy Friday

21 May

Happy Friday everyone. It has been a long week! One of those weeks where Friday could not come soon enough. These images I think are great, provoking and a little uncomfortable which sometimes you need to be put in an uncomfortable space before you know the best way to get out of it.

Retro Style

19 May

I love retro furniture and architecture. These images just transplant you to another time, I can just picture housewives in aprons serving cold martinis and smoking cigarettes. It is all very Mad Men which makes even more enticing. These images are via Desire to Inspire and are scanned fromĀ  The Practical Encyclopedia of Good Decorating and Home Improvement, Vol 13 OUT to PAR, Greystone Press, New York, 1971.

I love when a series of images are all in the same color scheme and especially when they are neutral and have a lot of white. These images made me smile, I liked the copy and the humor they portray.
