Sometimes I think we (humans) are going backwards.

A friend of mine just sent me the most amazing Muji christmas decorations! 

They are made of simple flat perspex pieces that you slot together and stand up. 

They also have these super cute pop cardboard penguins on their website! Although it is such a shame Muji in Europe is so much more expensive than in Japan – but this is probably a good thing for my wallet.

I think these two pieces of Art involving the body are really interesting. The models must have an incredible amount of patience, I’d imagine both would be very itchy.

No wonder Michael Pollan is such a genius – his writing house is one of the best workspaces I have ever seen. And he built it himself!

Meanwhile I am excited to get my own desk soon, hopefully it will be one of the ‘Tisch-Böcke Cherie’ from Neue Tische.

Visual Acoustics is a about the life and career of Julius Shulman, one of the greatest architectural photographers. His work is captures all the Californian modernist greats, I had not heard of Shulman before but was very familiar with his work, it really defined an era.

Objectified is the new film by Gary Hustwit, who also did the Helvetica documentary. His look at manufactured objects and there designers should be good.

Art & Copy is about advertising and inspiration. Some of the ad men look pretty intense, most definitely different to Don Drapers era (if you haven’t checked out Mad Men you should, it is an excellent series).

Now to just find somewhere is Berlin to see all of these films! I am most excited for Visual Acoustics. I hope if there are no screenings in Berlin I can still buy a download copy.
