French artist Lou Giesan has designed a series of hilarious anatomical organ-shapes jewelry pieces that we absolutely love. The wrap-around necklace modelled after a long strip of intestines and the kidney necklace made us chuckle, but the gold lungs necklace is actually quite beautiful in the weirdest way possible.

Brazilian-born artist Dalton M. Ghetti came to the USA in 1985 as a young man in order to study architecture and get a good job (as a carpenter and remodeller) in the land of opportunity. Throughout his educational career, Ghetti began to “sharpen” pencils as a way of meditation to quiet his busy mind, and can now claim himself as self-taught artist with a very unique ...

Artist Andrew Salomone not only has great taste in candy, but actors, too. He has made portraits of 30 Rock’s Tina Fey and co-star Alec Baldwin using Wonka Nerds candy. The results are pretty awesome, and if consumed, delicious too. There is more to this work of art than meets the eye, because without a careful attention to procedure, Salomone could find himself with a crumbling ...
Photographer Federico Chiesa created these brilliant photo series of his interpretation of what classic horror movie characters would look like if they were alive today. Freddy Crugar might be sitting in his modest home enjoying a pack of smokes and some homemade wine, while Darth Vadar (wait, is Star Wars a horror film?) is probably cuddled up with a hot water bottle and a blankie, watching ...

Sculptor Christopher Locke has created an interesting series of spider sculptures made out of confiscated Transportation Security Administration (TSA) scissors, multi-tools, knives, nail clippers and anything else that is banned from being carried on an aircraft. Locke works in all types of media, including wood, plaster, metals, clay, resins and more, but the sculptures made from scissors are particularly intriguing, and equally creepy. The sculptures are ...
Polish designer Szymon Hanczar has designed a the Hanczar Snowless Sled – a sled vehicle that can be used all year round on virtually any inclined terrain. Like snow sleds, the Hanczar does not have brakes, nor can it be steered by the driver, but that’s half the fun of sledding anyways, isn’t it? The Hanczar is currently in concept mode right now, but hopefully it ...

Got $44 million lying around? Of course you do. Why not spend it on the stunning luxury yatch, the Helix, which was recently listed for sale by the international shipyard Feadship. Apparently, the extreme price tag is surprisingly considered a “steal” when all the bells and whistles are taken into account. The hatch is 147 feet long and comes with a Pascoe International 7.00m tender that ...
Dutch design firm, LOOS.FM is responsible for the design and construction of the Abondantus Giganticus, a 20 meter tall church-shaped contemporary pavilion created for the Grenwerk Festival in Enschede, The Netherlands. While the jumbo Lego blocks look to be real, they are actual just interpretations of the mini-sized building toy, but have many similar properties. Called LegioBlocks, these concrete building blocks, manufactured by Jansen Betonwaren, work ...
Kudos go out to Katalin Ivanka, Hungarian designer behind Ivanka Design Studio for coming up with this awesome Leather & Concrete Clutch and handbags design. The handbags were made in part by high-performance concrete – an experiment Ivanka conducted that couldn’t have gone more “right”. We love the juxtaposition between the notion of a feminine fashion accessory and the hard, industrial nature of the material used. ...
