subcontinental.giant: lucifer matches

Who says matchbooks have to be boring and old school, well I do. I’ve never seen a matchbook and said to myself “that’s a cool matchbook,” to think of it I’ve never seen a matchbook and though anything because they are irrelevant in my life. Some how the folks at Feel Addicted figured out my feelings (or non-feelings) towards this object and completely made it a fine designed object that has taken center stage. The Lucifer match dispenser allows you to shake out a match, and as you pull it out of the dispenser lights it. No more fumbling around and hiding in the corner to light it, you pull out an already lit match…. and it looks bad ass to boot. from notcot

Marge: Look Homer! The number on the house is spelled out in letters!
Homer: Get used to it Marge, from now on we're going to spell everything with letters

That’s right, tired of being caught in the never-ending battle of choosing spelled out house numbers or scripty non-spelled out house numbers… well break the mo(u)ld with Umbra’s new number system. These numbers are pretty sweet looking, and they have adjustable tabs so you can punch the holes you need for your address. Also, since only 3.25 people read this friggin blog, I guarantee that no one in your neighborhood has these.

I remember as a small child, wait sorry I was never small, as a young child I used to love stacking mom and pops furniture to make cars, boats and the occasional rocket. Well, apparently so did Janus et Cie because her design of the Obelisk Chair does just that. A set of multi-purpose furniture pieces made of polyethylene with a powder-coated aluminum frame that can be stacked to make a giant rocket/storage formation when not in use.
