Farnsworth House by Mies van der Rohe
If you like mid-century or modern architecture, then at some point in time you have seen photos of the Farnsworth House. And probably drooled. But this is not a photo, yet instead a computer rendering by Peter Guthrie. Suffice to say I am blown away. I’ve seen amazing renderings before with 3DSMax and Vray, but these are unbelievable.

Pipette Vinegar Bottles by Camilla Kropp
Not only is the shape and proportion of these glass bottles really nice, but the eye dropper functionality is a great touch. I love vinegar (especially balsamic), good olive oil, and soy sauce which makes it very difficult to resist buying these. The set of 2 for $59.

Stenciled Buildings by EVOL
Oh, you thought these were actual buildings didn’t you? They are incredibly realistic stencils by the artist EVOL, which are applied to various electrical boxes and other misc. items. Click through to read, or you can view a large set of more images directly from his Flickr account here.

I have just relaunched the Snack On site with a new interface. Just like moving into a new place, there are few things that still need to be tidyed here and there, but its ready for a house warming.

It is that time of year again. We are coming to a close on 2009 very soon, and most people will be up for review at the company they work for (mine is this week). If you are up for it, you can anonymously report your salary to Coroflot along with your experience level. You will then get to see the results from their findings, which can either be uplifting, or depressing. The only problem is the survey is a little skewed, since they group such large areas together.
For example: The Midwest region includes Chicago, so of course that is going to skew results since all designers in that area are most likely making more due to the cost of living.
Either way, it is nice to see some data to compare others in your industry.

We made a quick trip out of town this past weekend to Rocheport & Boonville, MO. It was nice to get away, and enjoy the last bit of fall leaves. Rocheport is tiny, but holds tons of character. And Boonville’s downtown is pretty impressive really. Anyway, I thought I would share some photos of some vintage finds from a store in Rocheport.

Why I didn’t buy this little soap box, I will never know. I majorly regret it.

Great title, love the cover. There was an interesting version of Don Quixote next to it.

Love the old illustrations on these Hat boxes.

I don’t know what Plug Slice is, but that little Tin is awesome! I also regret not buying some vintage maps from Canada, Indiana, Minnesota, etc…
