Master Sculptor-Chris Gilmour

The Cardboard Master, Chris Gilmour, creates meticulous sculptures of almost every genre. To explain more he states in an interview:

The reason for the choice of objects has always been pretty much the same- they call up memories and emotions connected to our experience of these (everyday) things. Since this is both a visual and conceptual work I choose objects for their visual appeal and cultural resonance, but I also usually choose objects which imply an action or interaction of some sort.

The detail of his work with glue and cardboard is over the top; zoom in to appreciate and zoom out to be fooled into thinking its the real thing.

Which is for you, the badass trike or the quiet ride down Main St?

Not sure how he sculpted that…

American’s don’t have these classy rides that have always looked so much fun to drive in a European countryside.

And to end with, a violin solo.

Bear to Bull Market Cardboard

Cardboard, an essential piece of our shipping and packaging world, has been turned the box inside out to become the product, not the package it was shipped as. The essential recession case for every iPhone user (pictured above), captures the essence of brown and is a friend maker among unemployed young professionals. Picocool is promoting the bailout bundle get 10 for just $7.99.

If you are a person that likes to match, then this laptop stand for your laptop is just for you. Your iPhone and your Macbook Pro will work doubly hard knowing they are only a couple steps away from a cardboard blanket.

Another testament to cardboard’s applicability and durability is demonstrated by the Nomad system, with the philosophy of adaptation to any room or environment. Whether it’s on the go trade shows or to partition your mother’s living room, because of your temporary circumstances, this instant wall system will suit your needs.

Once the recession begins to dwindle and it becomes time to upgrade the furniture, but still feeling nostalgic of your cardboard laptop holder and cell phone case, it will be time to go for a true designer piece like Leo Kempf’s coversation table, shaped like a speech bubble. A conversation within a conversation.

To top it off, take a look over at the Greypants trio who came up with this lighting fixture with an Ikea flare. Currently for sale.
