DIY gourmet chocolates
// Oh my… this is too much fun. ‘Sweet Play is the diploma project of French designer Elsa Lambinet. The idea behind sweet play is pretty straightforward. A modular design allows for three types of chocolate that can support two added ingredients: black chocolate has a hole to contain fruit, milk chocolate has spaces for nuts, and white chocolate is surfaced to hold liquids, and all three contain a hallowed compartment for inserted flavored wafers, perhaps nougat or carmel. Participants get to mix and match ingredients for hours and hours as they gorge themselves on custom confectionery goodness.’
This short stop motion video shows you how it’s done. Awsome.

Stickers + kids
// I love this project. ‘This December, in a surprisingly simple yet ridiculously amazing installation for the Queensland Gallery of Modern Art, artist Yayoi Kusama constructed a large domestic environment, painting every wall, chair, table, piano, and household decoration a brilliant white, effectively serving as a giant white canvas. Over the course of two weeks, the museum’s smallest visitors were given thousands upon thousands of colored dot stickers and were invited to collaborate in the transformation of the space, turning the house into a vibrantly mottled explosion of color.’ Check out Before the first dot.

Communication in the public realm. ‘How can designers communicate the ideas they feel passionately about in the public realm? Is it possible to re-think the traditional methods of speaking out for contemporary times?’
The purpose of my project is to make people think twice before unconsciously picking up a newspaper and to focus attention on excessive paper use. An increasing number of people have Smartphones, mobile phones allowing Internet access. The goal is to increase the number of people reading the newspaper on the web, rather than picking up the paper version.

would you like a sundae?
// “Sweet Meat” is a photographic series by Jasmin Schuller. The images give off an inviting yet sarcastic and critical feel. For example the strawberry syrup on the sundae is substituted by animal’s blood. It really makes you think twice about meat. Link.
