| Paper Cut City Maps by Karen O'Leary Posted: 26 Sep 2012 07:54 PM PDT  Artist/ architect Karen O'Leary has created a series of modern maps that transforms the classic navigational map into a form of artworks, rendering a clean, contemplative design by way of intricate hand cuts or repetitive black ink lines. The first mapcut (a hand cut modern map) was created as part of her 5th year architecture thesis. A more beautiful, non-typical, site map. A map layered with more information than any other. Since then, she quietly worked on these beauties for her own enjoyment. In October of 2009, she listed the nyc mapcut on Etsy, in hopes of earning a few dollars. The images of the delicate streets of new york got circulated throughout the online design community and a business was unintentionally created. Currently she has over 30 cities in the mapcut collection and over 50 in the city prints collection. Her modern maps are more than a navigational tool, they also tell a story.

This Dapple Light Prototype by Reiko Kaneko is inspired by a hanging disco ball reflecting and redirecting the early morning sunshine inside, Dapple lamp tries to recreate this impact. When lit, mottled light bursts out of the seemingly regular wood veneer shade. But hidden from view, small glass mirrors line the inside of an Ovangkol veneer shade. Most effective in a darkened space, Dapple lamp swathe the surrounding area with an explosion of light.    + Reiko Kaneko

| Architect Curtain by Joon&Jung Designteller Posted: 26 Sep 2012 07:20 AM PDT  A commissioned work from 12n STDNBW, the Architect Curtain are inspired by the architect- Joon&Jung's background and the nature. In each layer of panel has different drawing by hand sew on the kassdoek with subtle colors. Because of the half transparency of the fabric and lighted line, it doesn't give you information directly. But as you walk by the image passes like an illusion. It is like a memory from your dream. The scene, you would have passed by without aware of. But it has been always there in our everyday.    + Joon&Jung
