FUCT’s latest release features photographs taken at the legendary east coast skate spot known as The Trench. “A drainage ditch that runs along the 378 freeway in Pa. My friends and I cleaned, cleared and started skating this spot in late 1981. It became the area hangout for delinquent teens and punks as well as the the breeding ground for some of the best skateboarders from Philly, NYC and N.J. … it represents 100% rebellion to leagues of skaters all over the east coast.” The t-shirts are printed with photos shot by Brian Plebani and Eric De Jesus circa 1983-86 and also feature quotes from Nietzsche and Ernest Hemingway. Both designs are available at UNION LA.

Curated Mag caught wind of these larger-than-life fat cap chairs. “Graphic designer Sander van Heukelom has developed a new chair out of a his youthful fascination with and practice in graffiti. The fat cap chair is built in the vision of, yes, a spray can cap. Two styles are presented – one sits directly on the ground, while the other is perched on a base. Both are constructed from styrofoam with a protective coating. The project serves to draw attention to the detail of an often overlooked object. Learn more at capchaired.com.”

The New York Fat Cap Chair is pictured here.

Constructed from sculpted forms of moulded plywood, the DCW chair was designed by Ray and Charles Eames in 1946 to comfortably fit the body. These now iconic pieces of furniture have endured to become mid-century modern day classics.

ilovedust have sought to complement the chair’s aesthetic integrity with a tailor-made design drawing inspiration from the relationship between the designers. Based on a dialogue conducted between Ray and Charles during the unveiling of the chair on the Arlene Francis ‘Home’ show broadcast in 1956, each chair has a unique pattern pertaining to one of the designers. The chairs tell a his and hers story with different quotes from each designer and draw heavily on graphics of the time, producing an overall 1950s aesthetic and enhancing one of the most recognisable and prolific pieces of modern design. Each pattern was carefully applied by hand, making these exclusive classics a must-have one of a kind.

The design also runs across a limited edition set of green and blue printed cushions. As a final addition, a specially commissioned hand-screened print is available to buy.

More detailed images of the I Love Dust x Eames DCW Chair, Cushions and Screen Print follow after the jump.

Under the creative direction of Scott Cambell, Mama Tried Studios is a creative consultancy group focused on unorthodox approaches to visual media. They’ve worked with clients as big as Volkswagen, but also find time to develop unique product of their own. For example, tattooed furniture. The chair above is upholstered with hand tattooed leather. Tables are laser engraved. Pillows treated with laser etching. Mama Tried brings perhaps the most authentic tattoo aesthetic to furnishings.
