GRILLENIUM
“Able to fit neatly into an included carrying pouch, the grill is made of hard-anodized aluminum and stainless steel, sets up in just minutes, has no moving parts, and thanks to the open design, lets you use any heat source you’d like. Great for camping, tailgating, or hiding away for post-apocalyptic use.” - Uncrate

COLOR CORRECTION
“Unlike those old colored classic movies colored by Turner, which were horrible, these are perfectly executed. Digitally modified by Swedish artist Sanna Dullaway, the realism of the color is truly outstanding. She made them to show her skills and sell her restoration and colorization services on the web.” - Jesus Diaz, Gizmodo

And so it was when I stumbled upon The Kitten Covers, the Tumblr site of artist Alfra Martini… she takes classic album art and replaces the iconic cover stars with kittens.” - Bob Boilen, NPR

SO PITTED
“Finally, a unique solution to that age old problem of what to do with the pit after the olive has been consumed. The unique design of this set comprises a serving dish sitting on top of a larger collection bowl, curved outwards in three places to allow the disposal of what’s left-over, be it shells, pits or pods.” - The Spoon Sisters

COLLARBONE
“These collar stays are the sort of thing a modern day MacGyver would have, as it incorporates a half-phillips screwdriver, slotted screwdriver, thread cutter, and a bottle opener. Now, how often you’d need all of those functions, who knows, but some of them are bound to come in handy sooner or later.” - Katie, Better Living Through Design

PC
“As Apple gets ready to enter the TV market, Vizio is jumping into the computer business. While the company wouldn’t tell us much, it’s clear they’re raising the bar when it comes to Windows-powered machines. The Vizio Computer Lineup ($TBA) consists of 24 and 27-inch all-in-one desktops (yes, everything fits in that skinny base below the screen), 14 and 15.6-inch slim notebooks, and a 15.6-inch full-size notebook. Not other many details are known except that the sexy PCs will run bloatware-free versions of Windows 7, appear to be crafted from aluminum and stainless steel, and that they’ll launch in spring 2012.” - Uncrate

BENIND THE SEAMS
“Today, releasing the clip we’ve all been on the edge of our seats waiting for, as we go behind the lens with Amber B Dianda on the creation of “Eden”!
The film itself was co-directed by Amber B and Kirk Dianda, who documented all the products and personalities behind the brand. Amber is also the hand behind the stop-motion animations featured throughout the film, cutting out each piece individually and positioning them one by one for each frame! While I could describe to you the steps taken in making the film, it is much better explained by Amber herself, so without further ado, a Q&A with our dear dear friend…” - Alex, Eden
