Wonderwall -> Interior Design

Wonderwall is a Japan based interior design firm established by Masamichi Katayama in 2000. The site design is extremely unique and refreshing.

La Boca -> Design/Typography

UK based La Boca is an independent design agency that specializes in art & design for the film, music and fashion industries.

Strala -> Lighting Design

Zurich, Switzerland based furniture + fixture design agency ‘Strala’ designed this lighting ‘tms’ series (2004) that is both minimalist and complex at the same time. The geometric columns fragment the interior light source into separate beams, as a result they emanate a really nice graphic bouquet of atmospheric light (best represented in the top photo).

IONZ -> Digital Persona Generator

São Paulo based agency ‘ionz’ has developed a well designed, playful and surprisingly fresh feature on their website that acts as a digital lifestyle persona generator of sorts. You can customize it a bit and even export your chart as a desktop image. Typically, I’m a bit annoyed by little ‘intro’ experiences like this, but [...]

Your Majesty -> Design Studio

I just happened across the website of New York City based agency ‘Your Majesty’. I haven’t dug into their portfolio to any great degree yet but I am intrigued by their website.

iMated -> Fun iPhone App

My mad scientists friends over at Minneapolis based agency SevnthSin have taken the phrase “there’s an app for that” to a whole new, slightly disturbing level by creating an iPhone app that will mate you and your best BFFs with just a few simple taps and limited necessary contact. Take a pic of yourself, then [...]

Motion Design -> Zurich29

Zurich29 Art Direction, static & motion design is an amazing destination for design inspiration that I found on http://www.fubiz.net/ the other day. Great organic typography and illustration, playful motion, beautiful lighting throughout.
