IKEAART

 

Berlin-based artist Nathan Baker uses the ready-to-assemble pieces of IKEA’s basic Stefan chair as the building blocks for faux-modernist or -minimalist sculptural forms, which he documents in photographs. Baker is interested in how creativity is limited by available resources, and the possibility of emulating sculptures using mass-produced components that are supposed to be the skeleton of a simple, functional object.

Christmas is time to eat.....artisan biscuits

 

These are as delicious as they look.  Good quality ingredients, beautifully designed packaging (by design company Irving & co.) and poetry themed! My favourite flavour is The Owl and the Pussycat.  Click here if you're tempted!

The Owl and the Pussy-cat went to sea

In a beautiful pea green boat,

They took some honey, and plenty of money,

Wrapped up in a five pound note.
The Owl looked up to the stars above,

And sang to a small guitar,
'O lovely Pussy! O Pussy my love,

What a beautiful Pussy you are,

You are, You are!
What a beautiful Pussy you are!' by Edward Lear

Isn't this divine? I found it on Design Sponge where you can find instructions on how to make it too!
