This is reminding me of the baby clothes where the designs were right side up for baby's viewing that I featured a couple weeks ago.
How can we make our own designs more user friendly in a unique way?

Something about the minimalist nature of this amazing piece by Anna Gray and Ryan Wilson Paulsen inspires me so much!
The usefulness, re-use and unlimited opportunities for expression this piece offers speaks so dramatically!
How can we use these lessons of dimension change, functionality and minimalism in our own work?

They also make the consumer think about the tree that birthed these babies
and remind me of the hard earned scars and imperfections that are the soul of hand-made.
How can we make our own materials and processes more apparent in our work - how can we use these to tell a larger story?
