“Shooting into the Corner” is an installation by Anish Kapoor. The cannon shoots 11 kilogram heavy wax balls into the corner of the next room. You can go and see it at the Anish Kapoor exhibition at the Royal Academy of Arts in London till December 11th. I guess they still have a few rounds.

I know that these images about the dust storm over Sydney are all over the internet, but that doesn’t make this one less awesome.

Lust by Hellovon.

Tonight was the opening of the Youngsters exhibition of the DMY Berlin International Design Festival. The quality of the work on display was very good, in the next few posts I will present some of them.

Nido is a collection of 6 stools and tables by Eva Marguerre. They are made of fibreglass which makes them extremely light, between 840g and 1020g, but also very stable, they can carry up to 150kg. You should actually watch the videos in the moodgallery. The material and the resin give them a very nice texture. They are only available in laser red and cost €198. I’m sold.
Nido is also on the shortlist for the DMY Award, good luck next Friday!
