Over a half year ago, Reebok did its first collaboration with John Maeda: the John Maeda Reebok Timetanium Ventilator. A few months later he also did a woman’s sneaker and now Solebox released the image of this Reebok Insta Pump Fury. I can’t find any words to describe this … John you are letting me down! What happened to simplicity?
EDIT: I stand partly corrected. Solebox just added a video of John Maeda explaining the concept behind this sneaker. I guess I’ll have to see it in the flesh to make a final call on it.
Jonathan Puckey is a Dutch graphic designer who can script. He often uses Scriptographer, a scripting plugin for Adobe Illustrator, so that’s probably why he calls his work ‘conditional design’. ‘Delaunay Raster’ is his latest project, it’s image vectorization based on Delaunay triangulation. So on the left you can recognize Kate Moss and on the right Notorious BIG. But if you want to understand why this is so amazing, you’ll have to go to his website and watch the short demo video.
RBG6 did this workshop in experimental typography at Konstfack, University Collage of Arts, Crafts and Design in Stockholm. First they designed the costumes and then the played an alphabetical football game. It looks like it was fun.
The BMW GINA Light Visionary Model is quite a revolutionary car study. GINA stands for “Geometry and Functions in ‘N’ Adaptations”. The outer skin is a textile fabric stretched over a structure of metal wires, some parts are moveable so you can change the appearance of the car. The headlines can be hidden or revealed, but I guess that the doors show it off the skins feature the best. As always a video is the best way to see and understand this, so watch it.

Kacper Hamilton designed seven red wine glasses inspired by the seven deadly sins: lust, gluttony, greed, sloth, wrath, envy and pride. The sin is revealed through the ritual of drinking.
