pencil printer.


I heard about this little creation a while ago and then recently discovered the updated version.

Clever idea, because if you make a mistake you can erase it with an eraser aka “a rubber”. Only problem with that, what happens after a few weeks when the pencil starts fading due to smudges?

Either way, it looks pretty and it’s small. If you are interested to know how it works (in detail), they explain it perfect at Yanko Design and there is a video too.

There is something about a clean, crisp, black letter on a sheet of white paper.

aspiral clocks.


The red ball rests on the spiral ledge and as the spiral turns slowly over twelve hours, the ball travels along the ledge to the middle. When the clock strikes 12, the ball drops through the hole in the middle and then the whole process starts all over again.

The Aspiral clock comes in a box with two balls and 6 AA batteries. Apparently you will receive a certificate of ownership too.

Now pick a color, any color. They have “rainbow” on the list too.

Backstage. Nuff said.

The first sketches shot by Nathan Copan made me go “oooh”, in a big way. How special and spectacular (not a word I ever use) is this? Definitely a big wow, but you know what? One day.

You can see the rest of Nathan’s Ralph Lauren photography at Trendland. From the first sketches to the actual production and then to the runway.
