Throwback Apple Concepts - ISO50

So wild throwback concepts that Apple was working on way back in the day. With the advent of the iPad and all the hype with it, it's neat to keep it all in perspective. It is always good to look back upon where we have come from. Love these.

IKEA Catalogue - So Addicting!

I love looking at the IKEA catalogues! It is so addicting. They way they help you imagine the spaces in your apartment or home is amazing. The minimalistic utilitarian design is so ... attractive. Oh man, just totally geeking out on form & function opportunities! It makes me want to sit down and sketch out my own line of minimalistic utilitarian furniture ... and learn Swedish.

My wife and I are especially excited to look further into the countless possibilities & applications ...

MUJI Design - Minimalism, Simplicity, Utilitarianism

It's kind of like Ikea ... I dig it. They have lots of great products. Check them out. I first discovered Muji while in the MOMA store in NYC.

"What is MUJI?
MUJI is not a brand whose value rests in the frills and “extras” it adds to its products.
MUJI is simplicity - but a simplicity achieved through a complexity of thought and design.
MUJI’s streamlining is the result of the careful elimination and subtraction of gratuitous features and design unrelated to function.
MUJI, the brand, is rational, and free of agenda, doctrine, and “isms.” The MUJI concept derives from us continuously asking, “What is best from an individual’s point of view?”
MUJI aspires to modesty and plainness, the better to adapt and shape itself to the styles, preferences, and practices of as wide a group of people as possible. This is the single most important reason people embrace MUJI.
MUJI - in its deliberate pursuit of the pure and the ordinary - achieves the extraordinary."
