Tangled Table ‘Not Now’ By Artist Michael Beitz
Artist Michael Beitz is known for his entangled and wavy tables, benches and other furnitures. The 28-foot-long twisted and tangled table is not quite a conversation starter, at least not if you're sitting at it, as you almost can't see your dialogue partner on the other end. via iGNANT

Volvo Lifepaint
"As urban streets are increasingly shared between drivers and cyclists, road safety is more of an issue than ever before. In the UK, more than 19,000 cyclists are involved in accidents every year. Many of these collisions take place in London, where the city’s often old, narrow streets make it difficult to accommodate both four-wheeled and two-wheeled drivers. Swedish car manufacturer Volvo (which has been making some noise in the design world lately) is now addressing the problem with the introduction of its new product Life Paint, which just launched in London."

OFFF Quebec 2015 by Jean-Paul Frenay
They say you should observe a piece of art deeply to understand its concept and interpret it in your own way, we think that Jean-Paul Frenay took this idea and twisted it into something even bigger than just an interpretation. He made sure to create an introspective “sarcastic” adventure.

Sundays by Mischa Rozema
Mischa Rozema and PostPanic Pictures debut film project SUNDAYS completes a first step towards its Feature Film goal with the release of the ambitious proof-of-concept short. Much-anticipated and widely-supported by the international creative community (over 50K US Dollars was donated on Kickstarter alone for the live action filming part in Mexico City), SUNDAYS is directed by Mischa Rozema.Set in Mexico City sometime in the future and starring US actor Brian Petsos and Mexican actress Sofia Sisniega, SUNDAYS is a philosophical science-fiction proof-of-concept short. The end of the world seems like a nightmare to Ben. A memory of a past life that doesn’t belong to him. When Ben starts to remember Isabelle, the only love he’s ever known, he realises she’s missing in his life. An existential descent into confusion and the desperate need to find out the truth begins. This reality depicts a stunning, surprising and dark world. A world that is clearly not his.

Hyperreal Paintings by Mike Dargas
"It almost seems like Cologne-based painter Mike Dargas was inspired by Blake Little's honey-covered people when he was painting these hyperreal works. He transfers images of women's faces covered in honey onto the canvas. We're once more impressed by the skill to transfer photographs utterly perfect into large-scale paintings." says iGNANT
The BOID Journal Identity by ESKIMO Studio
St.Petersburg branding studio ESKIMO designed a modern face of the B.O.I.D Journal writing about the best worldwide identities and graphic designs.
"Our proposal takes inspiration in the legends of the dragon who guards his jewels in a dark cave. B.O.I.D’s logo is based on traditional European heraldic dragon images but stylised by adding sharp edges and little angularity common for cave stones. The idea of the hidden and guarded gold was implemented by designing triplex business cards (black-gold-black) and small gold accents applied to other mediums using foil block stamping technology. Each new journal project corresponds to a golden coin in the dragon’s treasury."

The Atlas of Beauty by Mihaela Noroc
Romanian photographer Mihaela Noroc is on a mission to capture portraits of women from every country in the world in order to shed light on the beauty that exists everywhere.

Her travels so far are documented in The Atlas of Beauty, an ongoing project that features a diverse array of local women from 37 different countries and almost every single continent.
Dark vs Light
"Light fears Dark. Dark resents Light. Always at odds. Always in conflict. Pushing borders. Losing ground. Never ending. But what is one without the other? The stronger the light, the darker the shadow." London-based design studio Animade released a lovely animation Chronemics

Preservation by Blake Little
Friday is good for weird and beautiful. "When people showed up to Blake Little’s studio in response to a Craigslist ad calling for actors, the amateur thespians didn’t realize what they were in for. Fascinated with honey as a symbol and an artistic medium, Little asked his subjects to strip naked and pose in front of a monochromatic backdrop while his assistants doused them in gallons of the sticky, viscous substance. The experiment yielded a striking photo series in which people with a diverse array of body types and aesthetics appear transformed into statues. Little will exhibit the results in is solo show, “Preservation,” opening March 7 at Kopeikin Gallery in Culver City, CA." says Hi-Fructose

The Wonders Taste by Francesca Fattori
The Wonders Taste was inspired by a René Magritte’s picture named “The Invisible’s Taste”. Artist Francesca Fattori often take inspiration from the surrealist art. Fattori objectifies ordinary food ingredients by relating them to her personal perceptions of sinuosity; extravagance; limitation and fragility. The pictures are still scenes from a play and removed from their fluid natural sequence, which she likes to call “Metaphysical Landscapes”. via Trendland
