Office Supplies Never Looked So Good: A French Artist Takes to the Stapler

To keep with the office supply theme from this morning, here is a piece from French artist Baptiste Debombourg made entirely of staples—35,000 of them. Inspired? Just don’t take it out on your cubicle…unless you get permission first. Read more about the piece here. (via Dude Craft, via Notcot)

A Tool to Deceive and Slaughter

Véritable oeuvre d’art geek, ce cube en acrylique d’environ 20 cm sur 20 est une réalisation aussi originale qu’intrigante. Conçu par Caleb Larsen, A Tool to Deceive and Slaughter cache en réalité tout un dispositif, dont le seul but est de se mettre automatiquement en vente sur eBay. Si l’enchère disparaît ou que la sculpture trouve un nouvel acquéreur, cette première sera immédiatement recréée, pour continuer ainsi le cycle indéfiniment ! Prix à l’heure actuelle : 4250 $.

Spin asks: What are the top ten books you believe designers should read?

UK based design firm Spin recently asked major figures in design what are the top books every designer should read. 50 designers old and new from Wolfgang Weingart to Peter Saville made a contribution outlining the books that had the most influence on them. The result is a broadsheet format listing of an eclectic 500 books from Cat In the Hat by Dr Zeus to Typographica. The paper is available for $5 which is a small price to pay for such a comprehensive list of information. A must for any practicing or aspiring designer.

Another great Studio link landed in our Inbox from Germany this morning. Jens Müller & Karen Weiland formed mueller,weiland together after their studies in Düsseldorf.

Carine Collin

The rather talented Carine Collin sent us her work from Brussels. Her book designs are worth a closer look.

Dutch graphic design studio Kummer & Hermman have a new website.
