Check out these limited edition, uber-cool iPad sleeves from comemai. The hand-made sleeves are the brainchild of Serena and Balázs, who developed them in collaboration with noted Italian designer Luisa Cevese.
We thought of Luisa Cevese’s work and her Riedizioni project. Luisa has been working for more than two decades in the fashion industry, designing conceptual textiles. With her Riedizioni project, she has found an original mode of re-using textiles and industrial waste: textile scraps are combined with high quality plastic to create a new and original material, called II (eleven). This material incorporates and uses waste, and this is what we would like to do with COMEMAI: using waste instead of producing it.

Si. Mobil’s ORTO, a leading mobile brand among Slovenian youth, recently undertook a hugely successful rebranding exercise. Their “Live your way” campaign, gave young people a chance to be the brand’s co-creators.
Snip from the description of the campaign:
“Live Your Way” above the line campaign, which introduced ORTO’s new identity and questioned every convention and rule that limits our life, was accompanied by an experiential below the line marketing strategy. Just as ORTO brand lives its own way, so did ‘below the line’ media, which broke the rules of conventional use. Billboards and other public surfaces became blank canvases, which were offered to young street artists to express their way of life with a form of street art, which was never seen before in Slovenia – with tape art. By the same time, colorful duct tapes were also offered to other ORTO youngsters, who were encouraged to express their own way and dared to comment on the world they live in and create the world they would like to experience.

Outline Editions’ ‘Into The Forest’ is a pop-up gallery, designed by Kate Moross, who is acclaimed as “one of the most sought-after young illustrators in London.”
The gallery will feature affordable limited edition prints by some of the UK’s hottest illustrators and graphic art talents, including Moross herself.
From the striking, neon landscapes of Anthony Burrill, godfather of the new wave of graphic art, to the intricately rendered fauna of in-demand fashion illustrator Klaus Haapaniemi, the show offers a wild and beautiful take on a nature theme.
The gallery, in a former second-hand record store on Berwick St, W1, will feature arresting window and floor graphics by 24-year-old designer and illustrator Kate Moross, hailed by the Sunday Times Style magazine this September as one of Britain’s leading Generation-Y trendsetters.
There are also gorgeous works by Beyond the Valley, voted one of the top 100 UK Coolbrands for 2010, David Foldvari, fresh from his sell-out show at the Outsiders Gallery, plus many other forward-thinking image-makers. Among them: James Joyce, HelloVon, Supermundane, Jamie Portch, Patrick Thomas, Claire Scully, Hvass and Hannibal, Lizzie Finn, Takayo Akiyama and Sarah King.
The prints will also be available to buy from the Outline Editions online store.
‘Into The Forest’ runs from 11 November to 31 January, Tuesday to Saturday, 12pm to 6.30pm at 94 Berwick Street, London W1F 0QF.
