Because sometimes random is wonderful.

Santa Brand Book

Because it's that important. Get it here.

Memorial plates

Royal mariage fever is already infecting the UK (four months to go before Will and Kate's big day). London-based creative agency KK Outlet created their own souvenir plates for the more design-conscious fans of British royalty. Nice.

Lovely project by MIT graduate John Kestner. It's a nightstand that drops photos from Twitter into its drawer. Images of things placed in the drawer are posted to its account as well. Tableau is an Internet-enabled photo printer and scanner. See more of Kestner's work here.

Arresting work by Di Liu deals with conflicting relationships between nature and human society, generated by the rate of Chinese urban development. Via Design Boom.

White chunks

It's snowing heavily outside - big chunky salsa snowflakes, which is starting to get me in the tinsel mood (despite my bah humbug inclination). It's feels like the right time for a Police / Rudolph the Red Nose Reindeer mash-up.

Big title to live up to.

Out-of-work cabinet installer legally changes his name to Captain Awesome. I'd love to witness future job interviews or his daily introductions as Mr. Awesome. (Checkout the signature)

This touch panel style musical interface was created by Yuri Suzuki and Matt Rogers. Check out Lacquered in Japan - Made in the UK at the Embassy of Japan in the UK.

Edible Art

Maybe it's the festive season nipping at my heels, or simply the color and odd intensity of Amy Stevens' beautiful confections that got my attention. Sweetly strange (check out the pig on Cake #2). See more at Flavorwire.
