We are out for Thanksgiving until Monday. For all you Americans – Happy Thanksgiving! For everyone not celebrating, give your friends and family a call and tell them why you love them!

In the meantime, we leave you with some lovely furniture pieces by Icelandic design duo Gudrun Gunnlaugsdottir and Jon Asgeir Hreinsson over at Studio Bility. I like the simple shapes of the furniture, with the layered interior graphics.

Lacoste is the clothier created by Rene Lacoste in 1933, and is known for its iconic polo shirts. In addition to their clothing line, their footwear is making great strides in bringing sport to fashion without becoming overly technical a la puma or oakley. The women’s L33 (left) and the men’s Boston (right), are two examples of a more refined take on sport fashion.

Thanks to Jeremy for sending us his “line drawing 0007″ project. Exhibited earlier this year at the Danish Design Centre, “line drawing 0007″ was envisioned as a technical drawing of a chair, bench and light in elevation. Created under the art collaborative Culture Corporation (Jeremy Walton, Claus Bjerre & Ditte Hammerstøm), the installation began as a series of hooks within which the three took turns using an orange string to “draw”. Ultimately, the installation went from a drawing to a functional piece of furniture, with up to four people sitting on the bench (including a nursing mother). I don’t know if I would have been so brave!

The Sonnet, made by Parker, is a fountain pen that has all the old school detailing of a classic pen. The black lacquer finish has a deep shine to it and the weight of the pen feels great in hand.

Nice “Dish Up” dinnerware series from Thai design house Propaganda. A smart take on the food tray…Also, because of the flat edge, these plates can easily be stored vertically.

Joel Peck comes from a family of printmakers and is an amazing printmaker himself. His work’s focus is a combination of collections and personal narratives. If you can see any of his prints in-person, the depth of the insects defies traditional intaglio techniques.

This is a cool couch! Living in a tiny studio in NYC, most couches would crowd me out of my apartment in a second. I love that this Caraibi couch by Kappa (designed by Paolo Passerini) provides you with storage options – bookshelves, a roll-out arm rest for CD/book/liquor storage…Still too big for my apartment, but I like that it is multi-functional!

I’m almost afraid to post this, because apparently there is some controversy as to who the designer is for this project (Duncan Wilson or Sirkka Hammer). A google search didn’t bring any clarification, but regardless, some beautiful wallpaper ideas. Above is the “Pixel Notes” wall, which won 2nd prize in the 2004 “New Walls, Please” competition. It is essentially a wall several layers deep of post it notes. Use one and peel it off to reveal another colored post-it below. Beautiful!

I also love their “cutout” wallpaper with a pattern of tabs for standard paper sizes. Mount whatever you want within the given framework, and do away with tacks, pins and tape!

Vox Footwear is a relative newcomer to the skate shoe market, having started last spring. Almost all of the shoes have vulcanized outsoles for increased board feel, with the remainder having the low profile court outsoles. The Hewitt (left) and The Vato (right) are two from their current line. Check them out.
