Red is the color of courage
Why don’t we add a touch of bright red to this new year? Let’s ignore the Pantone’s advice that chooses Marsala color as the new trend of 2015. After all, red is the color of courage, joy and power. ¿Por qué no añadimos un toque de rojo brillante a este nuevo año? Vamos a […]

Nuria Blanco: ‘Me encanta cualquier esquina de Le Marais’
Nuria Blanco y su proyecto Vajillas by Nuria Blanco es un claro ejemplo de cómo es la artesanía hoy: un trabajo manual que revive las técnicas clásicas para crear piezas originales al margen de la gran industria.

A Well Traveled Woman
I really like lately A Well Traveled Woman Tumblr.

Highly recommended. — Últimamente me gusta mucho el Tumblr A Well Traveled Woman (que se podría traducir como ‘una […]

Teixidors
Teixidors is a project with an impeccable corporate philosophy. And, more than this, Teixidors creates unique products from raw materials like linen, merino lamb wool, cashmere, silk and Mongolian yak wool using classic looms. The natural essence of the fibers is present in every single piece, but transforming the material’s crudity into softness and warmth. […]

Silent Colors
What I really like of these ceramic bowls is their soft color palette with pastel tones. We notice silent, humble and modest colors, perfectly combined. The poetic names of every color are also very inspiring: Sobert Chip (soft pink), River Pebble (grey), Cloudy Cove (black) and Frosted Juniper (light blue). These bowls are handmade in […]

Paper Love
This is the Anthropologie stationery designed by Alana McCann in 2010. The essence of this project is just the material, paper, with its texture, color and touch. For good, in this multimedia era, the best online project will never exceed this design. I know both things are not comparable but I am a paper lover […]

The Folding Vase
The Snug vase is not a vase. It is a carton box with geometric forms that covers a glass or a bottle filled with water. The idea behind the design is to create an object with polyhedron shapes, inspired by Minimalism, able to embelish and to make us reuse another ordinary object. It was designed […]

A Cottage in Paternoster
I really like small cottages in the middle of nowhere, like this one near Paternoster, in South Africa. This beach hut was built from local stone and designed to blend into the surrounding countryside. The interior design of this and other cottages (like this beach hut in Uruguay) is always a creative exercise, because as […]

Halloween
It’s almost Halloween, so US Vogue has published a design project with costume designers who created masks that some interesting New Yorkers played dress-up with them. This is my favorite one, the white fox mask, designed by Kamo and worn by photographer Olivia Bee. — Es casi la noche de Halloween, así que Vogue USA ha […]

Gertrud Vasegaard
Today I’ve knew about the stoneware vases of Gertrud Vasegaard, a woman who worked as ceramicist from the 1930s until 2007 in Copenhague. As you can see in these pictures, her style was sober and elegant with smoked colors and with subtle patterns. I really like these little objects so silent and delicate. — Hoy […]

About Color
There are many differences between industrial and graphic design, but the first time I saw these vases, I thought that maybe color is the common factor between both. Because color is the final detail that gives whole meaning to the object and also to the graphic. Designed by Kate Hume and called Pebbles, these handmade vases […]
