Wire & Twine,

February 6th, 2007

Wire & Twine doesn’t really employ child labor, but every once in a while little visitors like to get involved in the shop.

It’s all part and parcel for this small studio located in Ohio. Making the process visible, educating, and sharing ideas is part of the philosophy, along with crafting handmade products with original designs.

They even make their website by hand. Truly a “Human User Interface.”

Many of their shirts are inspired by the things they love. Like the Sound Burger, a portable record player that challenges the ubiquity of the iPod.

The Tii-shirt (pictured above), another example of drawing from the things they love - a Wii remote controller from Nintendo’s latest console.

Chris Glass, designer of the shirt says, “Nintendo was a very influential part of my childhood. Understanding the pixels that made up Mario fueled my desire to study graphic design.”

One of the first products was the Facial Hairshirt, depicting exemplary styles of beards with a key printing along the seam. (related to video below).

Cancer,

January 31st, 2007

Benoît vient de m’envoyer l’url de son nouveau projet “grafikxperiment” :

“Le but de notre démarche est de proposer un rassemblement d’idées gravitant autour d’un élan créatif commun.

Trouver une alternative à la facilité redondante qui nous agresse dans la rue. La communication visuelle, sous le coup de l’urgence mercantile et de la concurrence exacerbée, prend des allures de soupe à la grimace.

Il est grand temps de balayer d’un coup de pieds cet étron formaté et d’éclabousser le monde d’une sublime ouverture d’esprit. Ceci reste bien entendu du domaine de l’utopie et nous n’avons nullement la prétention d’y parvenir ; mais n’attendons pas l’apocalypse pour raisonner clairement.

Qu’importe de foncer droit dans le mur tant qu’on y emploie l’entièreté de ses convictions”.

Nature is cruel,

January 31st, 2007

“She taught us that we have to kill to survive. And even when I don’t buy meat for dinner, I always fell guilty when I am chopping lettuce with my knife.

It’s not because it doesn’t scream that it doesn’t feel the pain. Anyway, I decided to try to consume only products approved by animal welfare. Animals deserve a better life than the one our bioindustry offers them now. I asked leather crafter Eliane Magalhães, who hates machines and makes everything with her hands, to design with me a leather bag approved by animal welfare.

Since nowadays you can easily buy eco meat at the supermarket, it should be easy to buy eco leather as well, right? Wrong.

It was impossible to find it. It does not exist in Holland. Chefs already have the choice to cook eco meat, So isn’t it time that we designers get the same right?”
