All things Design...

This week is going to be crazy busy but fun! I've been working on a cabinet as part of 'Projekta 57' that Nick from Design Loop has kindly invited me to take part in (which I've taken photos of with my awesome 3.2 megapixal camera). Nick's project, 'Ebay on the Freeway' is an exhibition of rubbish reborn and promises to be quite inspired. I will be one of the 'artists' on site on Saturday to talk about the exhibition, so if you're interested, please come by and have a look around or just drop by for a chat.

Ben of Bamakko fame is also part of 'Projekta 57' and he will have designers on site to talk about all things design-related which will also be interesting and plus Bamakko is only across the road from Design Loop, which is very convenient indeed.

Thanks again to Ben for graciously giving up his time to pose for the shots and allowing me to use his image on the cabinet. I think Daniel Day Lewis would have been proud of Ben's acting skills. He's proving to be quite the method actor ;) Also, thanks to Ads for removing the many cabinet handles in order for me to be paint them, without Ads - the finished product wouldn't look half as good.

Also, Design Made Trade is on this weekend as well which I will also be involved in. I will be working at Nick's space on Saturday and Ben's space on Sunday, so that will just about cap off my week.

eyyy, such great composition and concept with the telephone pole wrapping its wires around the cabinet. and i think the most awesome and fantastic thing about it is that Ben ends up looking like Daniel Day Lewis in those shots!

Awesome. I think Ben looks rather Reservoir Dogs-esque.
