Portuguese custom furniture company Boca do Lobo crafted this stylish boutique table which looks like it’s about to de-rezz in the middle of supper. This purple polygon champagne cabinet is a looker too!

This color matching game is fun! I thought so anyway, though I did get a pretty decent score of 9.2! Color brag !!!

A great post by Steve Silberman about Susan Kare, the artist who designed fonts and icons for the early Macintosh models. The post includes some never before seen hand drawn sketches of some classic iconography, a few which you can see above. So cool!

Graduate student Lee Wei Chen created the above “Arcade Washing Machine”, which hinges the washing machine’s efficiency to the washer’s gaming abilities. Playing the game successfully delivers a fairly priced, full wash cycle, but if the washer is poor at playing games they must try again by inserting more coins to complete the wash.
Interesting concept, if not all that practical. I might go for this if I was rewarded a cheap wash for being a really exceptional player.

Steph Thirion released a lovely color palette for coding syntax called synthcity, which I’ll be coating my Unitron editor in (what I used to write scripts in Unity) before working today. Coders, grab your colors here.
I’m no authority on tissue package design or anything, but Kleenex’s recent “Groovy” designs for their everyday tissue line were so nice I picked up three just for lookin’ pretty around my apartment. It doesn’t look like you can buy them via their site, but you can probably hunt them down at Wallgreens or CVS or whatever your local pharmacy happens to be.
What color lover wouldn’t enjoy this 100 pack of 100 Pantone colors on post cards. Very tempting at a mere $13.57. I may very well purchase this fancy gift for myself.
