Mario Bellini Architects designed a large sphere made of steel that envelopes and entangles itself around two pathways, inside the entrance to the new Deutsche Bank headquarters in Frankfurt, Germany. More well-suited for AT&T’s lobby if you ask me, but beautiful nevertheless.

A watch made out of paper, the Tyvex® tough water-proof kind, that allows you to draw and colour whatever you want to your heart’s content. Buy it from SUCK UK

It’s difficult coming up with new design features for watches, they’ve been around for a while you see. Our mate Darren has one that’s waterproof to 100m, and there’s one in the Argos catalogue that you can have your name lasered onto. Based on this we decided it was best to cut out all the gimmicks, and leave the designing part up to you! Our Paper Watch is a blank canvas, a plain watch made from tear-resistant paper-style material with a built-in digital watch.

It can be whatever you want it to be, style it yourself with biros, marker pens, paint, stencils or anything else you can find to express yourself! Even better, adorn it with doodles and give to a friend to wear! What better way to make sure that person who’s always late is never late, than with a custom-made watch to remind them of your plans! It isn’t waterproof to 100m, and you can’t point a laser beam at it, but it does come with an adjustable strap, long-life battery, and infinite possibilities.

Perfect for giving out as party invites, or sending to that special person reminding them not to be late.

I have so much love for the Balloon series by Finnish artist Jiri Geller. Not as happy as Jeff Koon’s balloon sculptures, these actually take on a rather dark, sinister tone, being solitary and void of colours and decoration.
