While partaking in the typical Monday morning procrastination (e.g. write action lists, drink coffee, flick through design mags, emails, blog subscriptions, familiarise self with week ahead’s schedule, panic, drink more coffee, etc.), a tweet from Furcoat distracted me further… she is a terrible (in a good way) influence! Anyways, it spurred me to check out Matches Fashion. Lethal.
We bid a fond farewell to our fellow fluorescent art collective, Neon Monster. Last weekend the doors of their beautiful San Francisco store opened and then closed for the last time and this coming weekend they will be closing their digital doors too.
A designer’s sense of humour is typically dry, very dry. Call it a vocational side effect or, more simply, a basic survival skill but either way – the wryness gets us through the working week of not so atypical conversations on the subject of speculative work.

Uh huh. Oh, wow! This surmises our attitude towards this week; we’ve big plans ahoy and need to tackle the next few days with full force so we’re filling our minds with concentrated measures of extreme inspiration. Today’s supersized chunk of inspiration is Elliot Joseph Rentz (AKA Rentz), a 17-year old designer hailing from Brighton who recently relocated to London.
