Brace yourselves, folks. I’m about to post something exceptionally rare for this blog: neon colors. Zim and Zou have won me over with their outrageously skillful paper sculptures.
This color scheme actually reminds me of my wardrobe as a child of the 80′s…before I wore more dark apparel than any human reasonably should.
And speaking of the 80′s, be sure to explore the closeups in Back to Basics to remember our prized devices of yesteryear.
Artist Kirill Rozhkov designed a set of H.P. Lovecraft themed designs to be used for carpets (I wish the link listed where there are actually installed).
Here is how these designs translate into floor and wall decor…
These should also be made in Cthulu area rugs for home use.
See a few more photos from this project here.
Emily Bawn does a killer (pun intended) job on this zombie bridal shower invitation:
Look at the classy yet spunky macabre detail! Emily says: “I wanted to have the feeling of formal grace at a first glance, but then upon closer inspection a transformation from elegance to the grotesque with the details of body parts and the macabre.”
Even though this was done for a bridal shower, zombie invitations are surely great for all kinds of non-wedding related events.
Check out the happy couple:
This chair by Freya Sewell looks very inviting to me.
It’s another piece of introvert furniture (for those who don’t want the Sensory Deprivation Skull). Perfect for curling up and reading A Guide for the Extra Woman
I’ve seen countless decorative mirrors, but very few do creative things with the design of the mirror surface itself.
Would you want one of these in your house? I rather like the illusion.
A few more photos and a tiny bit of info at the source.
I can’t read the text, but I love this product. Scrabble tiles for kitchen and bathroom!
What would you spell if you bought these tiles?
What a great idea (especially for the art and literature geeks out there…like me). Novel Posters really put the writing on the wall (*groan*).
Pride and Prejudice:
These posters are made solely from the full text of the novel, from beginning to end. As of now, it’s a Kickstarter company. I hope they get plenty of funding!
Great Expectations:
Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland:
I’d just like to call your attention to Isotope on Etsy.
Here you’ll find t-shirts decked out with science, maps, music and other assorted geek treats.
Evolution…
Even flying squirrels!
Now here’s a wine I would buy no matter what it tasted like, just so I could keep the bottle:

Ever wonder how Hell is furnished? Look no further…I have your answer. You’re welcome.
Michel Haillard creates sinister pieces of furniture, inspired by a passion for hunting.
I don’t believe in hunting just for sport, so to avoid intense cognitive dissonance I must believe that these creatures were killed for food, and that every part of the carcass was carefully and responsibly used.
I would also accept the use of dead animals if one were to find them decimated by plague or natural disaster.
Maybe they just died of old age…
Although a tad too opulent for me personally, I think these pieces would be phenomenal on dark, lush movie sets. Haillard could easily furnish an entire villain abode.
What images or characters does this furniture conjure up in your imagination?
