Playful Companion Rack by Gavin Coyle

Do you like dogs? British designer Gavin Coyle has developed an interesting magazines holder called Companion Rack, inspired by the men’s best friend. By it’s shape it resembles a dog who gives the newspaper to its owner. The item, made of CNC wire, allows for a lightness of form, allowing the colors of the magazines to decorate the body and not overpower the environment of the work. So I think that this rack can decorate an office or your living room. Visit the designer’s site to see more interesting items.

Extravagant Toilet Paper Roll Art by Junior Fritz Jacquet

While we throw a toilet paper roll away without any hesitation, Junior Fritz Jacquet finds a peculiar way to make use of these rolls. He creates unique sculptures out of them. Who could have thought that they could be turned into fascinating face sculptures? Since childhood the designer is fascinated by the paper. He explores and experiments with different techniques of folding and crumpling to create different objects that make the interior brighter and more expressive. The faces are sculptures by hand at first and then coated with shellac and different pigments. These sculptures are not pretty, someone will even consider it ugly, but still they are very unusual and audacious.
