Felice Varini
This work by artist Felice Varini has no doubt been knocking around blogs for a while now but I only came across it for the first time today, and I think you’ll agree with me that it is AMAZING!!

ASCII Curtains
I remember looking at ASCII art when I was knee high to a grasshopper and thinking back then what an amazing but laborious task it must be to create them. This takes it to a whole new level, and instead of looking crude on a low bit depth screen, actually looks sophisticated; the perfect embodiment of ‘Geek Chic’ !
“There’s absolutely no shortage of ways to geek up the inside of your domicile, but few creations posses the perfect balance of class and geekiness like the ASCII Curtains. Reportedly hand-crafted by designer / artist / undiscovered genius Nieke Sybrandy, these nerdalicious curtains feature a light gray tree motif that is compiled entirely from code.” - Quote from Engadget

Pantone Mugs
“Forget about colour swatches, colour swatch mugs are the way forward. A quick and easy way to brighten the kitchen or the office.”
By W2 sold at Urban Outfitters.
£10 for a pretty bog-standard mug, but it sure screams ‘esoteric design geek-chic’ when suggestively placed on your coffee table.
