I came across this fantastic architecture & interior design blog called coolboom.com. It’s choca with amazing work from all over the world. Each project has a little bio about the designer & piece in question.

The Joshua Tree, created by Hanger Prefab, is a “mobile home” with a steel skin and wooden interior. Now I don’t know about you, but where I am from, that is not a mobile home!! Lovely!

Japanese designer Hiroyuki Miyake has created this unusual interior for an ice-cream shop. The interior is deliberately characterless, no color, texture or reflections, except that of the delicious ice-cream.

These are five beauties, but there are loads more over on the Coolboom.com website & they also linkback to all the designers websites etc which is very handy. Coolboom is indeed, very cool!

SweetTalk is an informal presentation series featuring some of the world’s most interesting creatives. It showcases the talented stars of SweetTalk NYC, which was presented by Candy magazine and Veer.

I was discussing these videos last night with a friend and remembered just how good they are! The designers featured are Michael Place, Glen Friedman & Michael Gillette.

Michael Gillette shows off some of his work and briefly details his past, it’s interesting and again some really interesting stuff on show, he talk about his beginnings & how he came to move over to the states.

Glen Friedman is a photographer, his motivation & commitment alone is inspirational. He talks at length about how his surroundings; music, politics, skateboarding etc influence(d) what he does.

Place is a british graphic designer & swiss typography/Helvetica nut he’s very talented, witty and has a lot of interesting self-initiated projects. In the talk he details his creative process and what makes him tick, as a graphic designer myself this was probably the video i related to the most… All of these vids are worth a watch, these clips aren’t exactly new but the content is timeless!

Also…

If your into Veers (fantastic) free stuff or you enjoyed these podcasts then I would recommend you check out their free catalogues. They are used a sampler for their new typefaces / stock photography but more than that they are really nice pieces of design and there is an extensive back-catalogue to boot!

On a side note if your going to subscribe to these podcasts I would use the RSS as the automatic updates in iTunes seems to be broken. – as per the comments, Grant from Veer has given me the heads up that the iTunes issue has now been fixed! Subscribe to the iTunes feed today!

Hillman Curtis, such an inspiration to me, I saw this and had to share. A very special interview with fantastic cinematography, hope you enjoy it as much as I did.
