This is what I do instead of homework...

I organize my collections of things.

These are key charms from different places I visit and also larger antique keys on my wall.


This is the 1/3 of my book collection that actually fit properly on my bookshelves,
They also go perfectly in rainbow order. As do all my neclaces.


My mini robot collection.


Labeled are all the different categories of design clippings I packrat,
and inside the pink ice cream cone is my collection of lucky pennies haha.


The sad part is that I didn't have to clean up anything before I took those photos,
But what is troubling is that one shelf below those neatly arranged binders is this mess...


Maybe this is the real reason I dont do my homework.

Why don't I just kill myself now and get it over with.

Kashiwa Sato is god, not kidding.
I just found out last night that he was the creative and art director of Tribeca's new Tokyo Bar.

That is on top of everything I said before.

This is sick!

The IAC building is so cool! How did I not hear about this before? I guess it opened back in March I think. Ever since I got back from Tokyo and Beijing I've felt that nyc is severely lacking the amazing contemporary architecture both those cities have. I wouldn't say this IAC building is quite, AMAZING, but it is a step in that direction, and its Frank Gehry's first structure in nyc! about time!




But the whole reason for me mentioning this building in the first place isn't the exterior architecture, its the sick interior!



Trollbäck + Company designed and produced the graphics and ads, etc that's concept was concieved by Bruce Mau. (could they add a few more high profile names to the design of this structure if they tried?) They are an "open visual forum" played on one of the world's largest high-res video walls! Read the short desription of what they are like.



Hopefully they let random people in the building, haha cause next time I'm near chelsea, I'm so gunna take a walk over there.

I'm slightly obsessed

with this Slendy Eraser. Its only 2mm thick!
I bought it in Tokyo and it is seriously my favorite thing at the moment.
Great design, nice typography, and perfectly useful.
Don't you wish you had one too!

Fellow Design Students...

This site is for us. hah. It has some funny posts, good advice, and helpful links.
(Some of it is a little lame, but it's entertaining none the less).

My favorite part is the description of "The Chosen One."
I immediately think of a handful of guys I'm friends with that each "think" they are, "the Chosen One." hahaaa
