p i N k & b L u e





Photographer Jeongmee Yoon shot a series where she went to kids homes and took pictures of boys with all their blue things and girls with all their pink things. I think its adorable, funny and a little frightening that nothing is propped! Can you believe how many blue and pink little knick-knacks these kids have? See all the photos here.

i'm baaaack!

i'm totally slacking on posts, i know.

This one has nothing to do with design but i've discovered a new love and a new hate. My sister just introduced me to evian. You know, that expensive bottled water that totally doesn't seem worth it. Maybe you are like me in thinking all bottled water tastes the same. Well, not the case. Sersiously, it tastes like hose water (which i love) mmmm, the only thing better would be zorbaz water bottled. Great water is irreplaceable!




sweet bottle too!



My new hate is instant oatmeal. I used to LOVE it but about half way through my freshman year of college when I used to eat it everyday it started tasting like soap. At first I thought it was because I didn't rinse my dishes well enough but everytime after that it always did. I say it's a new hate because I always had faith my love would return and eventually the soap taste I kept tasting would disappear. Still no luck. I had this kind called cinnamon bun last night and couldn't taste anything but soap....so weird. Goodbye instant oatmeal - you were good to me.

Why Didn't I Think of This?

We are making lamps in my Art and Science of Production ID class out of reused materials. Anything you are able to find in mass quanities in landfills, recycling centers, etc. Greenlight Concepts has made old traffic signals turn into beautiful modern lamps. I'm jealous of the genius idea! Any help readers?

what a wonderful concept.

The Dry Side: Yanko Design

Cadillac Provoq




GM announced their new concept vehicle and it's not only stunning but also wonderfully GREEN! The Provoq is a hydrogen-powered vehicle that only emits water. It's composed of a lithium-ion battery, a fuel cell system and a pair of 10,000-psi hydrogen tanks that produces enough power to drive you 300 miles on a single tank. Also, the interior is power boosted by a solar panel on the top of the car. To read the full article, click here.
