stealth type

With so much recent news about domestic surveillance programs is good to see that designer's are taking the initiative to develop new ways of 'hard wiring' in privacy.

Sexy Fresh: Playboy rebrand for a younger audience.

Playboy is working to re-assert itself into American youth culture through a series of creative initiatives, the first of which being Playboy Marfa, a roadside attraction by Richard Phillips in Texas. The brand will commission a series of art projects to reintroduce the company to a younger audience.

Interesting to see how the right choice of location gives a sense of authenticity to the installation.

Artist/designer duo Nicholas Anderson and Julie Ho combine tissue paper, card and silk applied across and a variety of applications including installations, jewellery set designs and interactive objects - all reminiscent of giant piñata's (which the also make). Beautifully simple. Visually stunning. Check out their tumblr And their site.
