Typographic maps

Axis Maps just released their mapping / art project Typographic Maps. These unique maps accurately depict the streets and highways, parks, neighborhoods, coastlines, and physical features of the city using nothing but type. Only by manually weaving together thousands upon thousands of carefully placed words does the full picture of the city emerge. Every single piece of type was manually placed, a process that took hundreds of hours to complete for each map.

Take a look at their blog for more on how these maps were made.

Cement Pearls

These cement earrings are modeled on classic pearl studs. Each concrete sphere is cast by hand and set onto a sterling silver post. With wear, the colour of the earrings will deepen as the concrete is exposed to the air and the oils from your skin.

Imeshi Dolls

I've blogged about something similar a while back, but something as cute as this is definitely worth another post.

These unique dolls were made in collaboration with Selyn, an organization in Sri Lanka. Designer Alexa Lixfeld worked with children in Sri Lanke and the dolls are based on drawings that they made that were then transformed to hand woven, 100% cotton fabrics, and printed with non-toxic dyes using fair trade standards.

You can find them here.
