Bookshelf Design Concept of the Day: “Short Circuit Shelf” by Alexandra DiCairano.

Alexandra says:

Beauty is sometimes overlooked because of scale. Circuit boards have a beautiful and efficient pattern that perfectly serve their function. They hold and transport digital information. These bookshelves are inspired by the form of circuit boards and they will help to contain the physical information found in books.

Currently unavailable, but absolutely needs to be.

Isis Masshiro: “Epic Duel”

This calls for a bad dino joke:

Q:  Why did the dinosaur cross the road?
A:  Because the chicken wasn’t around yet.

Thank you. I’ll be here all week. Try the fish.

Futuristic Fashion of the Day: Procure public intimacy in a flash with “Veasyble” — a collapsible “shell of solitude” made from paper and polyethylene fabric.

A portable, wearable fort? You had me at French kissing in line at the bank.
