The Albert clock by German designer Sven Stornebel is not just a clock – it’s a showcase as well. Each house-shaped clock comes with a resident by way of a small plastic toy in the same color. The toy can be put on display in the clock or sat out on its own. You can open the back to fill the case with your treasures or leave it empty.

Would anyone agree with me when I saw that the Food Network’s Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives is the worst thing to watch if you’re even just a little bit hungry? If I put that show on, my mouth is immediately watering for something greasy and fattening.
This past Sunday, I put on the TV and sure enough, there was Guy Fieri at a restaurant in Cleveland that serves “mod mex.” They showed about six different types of guacamole, one of them with goat cheese, and I knew I had to try it. Since I’m a big fan of both – why not merge the two? So I did – and it was amazing. I would have taken my own photo, but my camera died, so I had to use the one above! Anyway, here’s the recipe:
Goat Cheese Guacamole
3 ripe avocadoes
1 small tomato, chopped
1 small red onion, chopped
1 large clove garlic, minced
4 ounces goat cheese
1 small pepper – I used habanero
Juice from one lime
Salt and pepper to taste
Mash avocadoes in bowl until smooth. Stir in tomato, onion, garlic, pepper and goat cheese, taking care to break up goat cheese evenly. Add lime juice, salt and pepper to taste and stir to mix. Serve and enjoy!
Have you tried guacamole with any fun additions?

Oh Carnovsky , I love these new wall decals you designed for Blik . If you recall, we featured Carnovsky’s RGB exhibition a few years back and these new decals don’t fall far from that awesome tree. Using their trademark RGB (red, green,blue) technique paired with a variety of intersecting and overlapping insect, animal and foliage illustrations, these kaleidoscope-like patterns become completely different animals when under specific lighting.

Recent RISD graduate Erica Sellers came up with a unique project to pursue her senior year that explored soundwaves. Sellers created a way to represent soundwaves in three-dimensional form in this chair and table and the results are most impressive. Beginning with a song ( “Symphonia IX” by Grimes *) and using music software, Sellers took the curves and oscillations that were originally in two-dimensional form and converted them into three-dimensional form using the modeling software Rhino 5.0. The digital 3D surfaces were then converted into files for a CNC machine to do its thing. The machine milled large wood panels that became the surfaces for the tabletop and chair

As far as gold goes, I’m a sucker for it when it comes to costume jewelry and home accessories. I’d probably even go for a big gold dining table or headboard or something that made a bigger statement than the gold tray and the gold vase currently occupying space in my living room.
Something I had never even thought about until yesterday was gold walls. I mean it’s one thing to gold leaf a mirror or a picture frames – but what about the walls?! The thought seemed wild to me, but as I did some searching, I think I found a few good looks. However, I don’t think I love this look for a bedroom or living room, but perhaps for a smaller room, such as a powder room or closet. A powder room with gold leaf walls? Yes, please! And a glossy black toliet with a matching sink!
What do you think about gold walls? Do you love this look?

Dutch product design graduate Toon Welling designed the Bound Basics collection of simple furniture that is held together with nothing more than rope. Using what Buckminster Fuller termed “tensegrity” (short for tensional integrity), the rope creates the tension that is required to hold the pieces together sans nails or screws.

The Invariants is a collection of vases by by Sergey Makhno that uses familiar materials and shapes like concrete and a three-liter jar. Named after “exact mathematical sciences and means property of the object to remain unvarying upon transformations,” the collection contains very simple geometric forms — a square, rectangle, circle and are reminiscent of the building blocks that surround us in urban environments.
