I stumble upon the works of Patrik Svensson a.k.a (Prince Hat) and his series of minimalistic movie typography posters. In this series he tries to visualize the movie by using only the first letter(s) from the title, for example the i from "The Insider" as the shape of a cigarette, or the two k's from "The Karate Kid" as two fighting karate kids.

This series provides space which is great because sometimes less is more in the design world. People are sometimes just looking for something to fill that space, but if you take out all that noise. You can then direct your vision on something that's actually worth focusing on.

I highly recommend checking out more of Patrik work or check out his blog. If you want to know more about the thought process and see more of this series check it out on Designmodo

Bronia Sawyer's book sculptures are just fantastic. I personally didn't know you could craft something as detailed and elegant as these book sculptures. Each sculpture has such great colors, folds and rolls to create these birds and flowers. It's very intriguing as well to hear her take on why she got into designing book sculptures.

I love to take something like a book and turning it in to something visually pleasing. With book sculpture I like the fact that books are flat and square they have order but by cutting them and folding them you can create organic and random shapes. I also like to add colors but mainly for the way it looks in photographs.

Kristian Jones series Lost in Youth is quiet interesting. His take on these is exploring the modern youth culture and the imagination of the youth. This series has that minimal feel to them but also has an impact of understanding the youth of having a blob friend or spilling your ice cream.

An Australian designer Chris Malloy claims to have built a real Hoverbike. This hoverbike is powered by a 1170 cc engine and is capable of lifting 595 pound off the ground. It can be expect to travel at an upwards of 170 mph, and you can take it to 10,000 feet or maybe even higher. It weighs in at about 242 pounds which is actually light and the body is made of carbon fiber and kevlar-wrapped foam. There currently is no price tag yet for this bad boy. It's still in the testings phase but if you really can't wait and would like to purchase a Hoverbike, they can build you a working prototype. So happy hovering.

Santa Monica architect Ray Kappa has put some modern in this module home. The RK1 is a two story 5 bedrooms 4 bath home with simple lines, open spaces and lots of glass. The home also has multiple decks with indoor and outdoor space with a roof-top green space.

Living Homes worked with Ray to create this modular home which, has eleven pieces to it and weighs over 10,000 pounds, it only took about eight hours to assemble this house. So for $590,000 you can have a brand new home built for you in less than eight hours. That is quite interesting.

The City Cycle is a unique party bus that allows 14 people to drink beer while they pedal and power the vehicle.

This concept was inspired by a similar invention like the pedal pub and beer bike. Although this pedal powered bar has adjustable chairs, six loud speakers, LED lighting and a spot for the DD to steer drunken peddlers. It was created to appeal to bike riders, beer connoisseurs and more. Well I'm on board, I want to take a drunken ride on this City Cycle.
