- Beautiful & unique installation in the center of Paris highlighting the dangers of unsafe drinking water.
- Bad boy DJ/producer Diplo has written a pretty entertaining account of his recent trip to Cuba. It has rekindled my interest in visiting.
- Tyler Thompson got sick of looking at ugly, confusing boarding passes, so he had a go at redesigning them. He also put the call out for others to do the same. The results are excellent, hopefully the airlines are listening (although our own Air New Zealand actually does a reasonable job in comparison to the Delta one that Tyler started with)
It is also well worth checking out Dustin Curtis’s well thought out redesign of the American Airlines homepage that was part inspiration for Tyler’s efforts. - Nike has been doing some awesome stuff lately, including this spot for the Nike Free running shoes. Japanese DJ duo Hifana create some wicked beats using the super flexible sneakers. Super cool concept really well excecuted.

(Via designboom) - Logorama is an award winning short from French collective H5. It is so great that it opened Sundance this year & picked up the Academy Award in the animated short category.
(via Amber) - It has been around for a while now, but Slinkachu’s Little People Project is rad. It must be incredible coming across one of his installations “in the wild”.
