I like how James manipulated his images to create these fantastic pieces of art. How did he do it? I wonder... This is how I
think he was able to accomplish this look(using the last image as an example). Using a software package such as
photoshop, I believe he probably took a photograph of bottles and maybe an image of his hand by using a copy machine. He then manipulated the color and look of the bottles by increasing the blue
palette. Then he brought in the copy image of his hand enhanced it to a light blue and made it a layer behind the bottles. Then, he would have to put on a layer of green and then maybe use the eraser bring the hand image forward. And, before this gets too technical geeky boring, use a stamp to stamp on the flowers. What do you think? Any ideas? Please leave your thoughts. Images from

Design contests can produce some pretty interesting results. Brazilian designer Roberta Rimme created an all in one bedroom set. The bed, bookshelf, media holder, television and desk are all rolled into one piece of furniture. It seems to be a big hit with the younger generation. To see other entries just go to Designboom, click on Competitions, then Teenage Furniture.
