Ignore the problem? Why not wallpaper it instead! #iamfinley

30. September 2014 von schall & rauch

Wallpaper. It’s everywhere and there are are so many different kinds: plain, ugly, colorful, with or without patterns, nostalgic, postmodern, structured, depicting the latest holiday snapshot or full of teddy bears and matchbox cars. And they all have only one purpose: to cover up unattractive concrete and brick walls and decorate interior spaces. It’s probably a real fun job to be a wallpaper designer, don’t you think! But what happens if you take the domestic wallpaper – whatever kind you like – outside and […]

How would YOU map the Internet? Not possible? Well, have a look at this!

31. Januar 2014 von schall & rauch

Looking at this „Map of the Internet“ by deviantART reminds me of reading Jules Verne’s „Twenty Thousand Leagues Under The Sea„. For some reason. Must be the design HA! To visualise a highly abstract concept such as the Internet and its goings-on is not only a very daring and time-consuming design project. It is plainly: art. deviantART. And also pretty interesting. Funny even. You see us impressed.

This is such an incredible idea! And sooooo simple: Phonebloks. WOW!

13. September 2013 von schall & rauch

I am absolutely shocked that Phonebloks has not been come up with before. This just proves once again that simplicity is hard to pay attention to when we try to envision great things. Sure, the design might need some work but the idea is AWESOME! And worth everyone’s support! This, Mr. Cook, is something you should help develop instead of putting a bloody plastic phone on the market that is not only a big step backwards in terms of creating […]

Documenting forty winks – The Ted Spagna Project: Sleep

5. September 2013 von schall & rauch

As a kid I used to wake up in the morning with my feet on my pillow and I’d always wonder how the heck I came to lie upside down and managed to crumple up the sheets like that without falling out of bed. Well, I never found out. I could have, if I had then known of Ted Spagna, who for more than a decade from 1975 till 1988 took photographs of people asleep and not just once but […]

Want some hate mail? Mr. Bingo will gladly send you some. He draws random hate messages on vintage postcards and sends them to people for a small fee. There’s even a book with all the postcards compiled. Something different innit?
