QUINZE & MILAN VS EASTPAK
THEY’VE CEMENTED THEIR HIGH-FASHION CREDENTIALS WITH COLLABORATIONS WITH SOME OF THE TODAY’S EDGIEST FASHION DESIGNERS INCLUDING AGENT2 FAVORITES: RICK OWENS, RAF SIMONS, CHRISTOPHER SHANNON AND GASPARD YURKIEVICH AND NOW EASTPAK HAVE CROSSED INTO THE WORLD OF FURNITURE WITH ITS LATEST PROJECT. THEY’VE JOINED FORCES WITH EDGY BELGIAN DESIGN COMPANY QUINZE & MILAN TO CREATE A RANGE OF SOFAS INSPIRED BY THE UTILITARIAN QUALITIES OF EASTPAK’S OWN COLLECTIONS.
This is a collaboration like it should be done: take the best of both sides and combine. They’ve taken two classic designs by Quinze & Milan (the Club Sofa 01 and Primary Pouf 02) and added the typical EASTPAK element to it. Lots of little zipped pockets have been added to the seats and provide storage for your knik-knaks such as remote controls, laptops and your latest copy of AGENT2 Magazine.
The project is called BUILT TO RESI(S)T and it certainly lives up to its name giving design and functionality in equal measures.
Both pieces are produced in exclusively numbered limited series, and prices will start at £1941 and are available from www.madeindesign.co.uk

H & M LAUNCHES NEW HOMEWARE COLLECTION
Fashion and design junkies no longer need to feel bad as they face their constant dilemma of what to buy; “clothes or something for the home, clothes or something for the home”. High street giant H&M has taken the plunge into homeware with a range that launches this Autumn meaning you dedicated fashionistas can step out with style and now, stay in with style.
The affordable range, which is aimed at students, renters and fashionistas, includes cushions, bedding and towels that incorporate key trends such as pastels and florals, from as little as £2.99-£59.99.
And if that wasn’t enough, according to Retail Week, customers will shop the homeware range using a unique magnet system, adding magnets to a board to represent products. Boards are then taken to the till and products chosen paid for and collected.
The range, which was launched successfully in Europe last year, is expected to eventually be rolled out to all H&M Stores across the country.
The collection will be available in the Oxford Street flagship store and online.

UNIFORM WARES WATCHES
Uniform Wares produces objects and apparel intended for everyday use by individuals with an eye for meticulous design details.
Their products have an intentionally pared down form that is characterised by distinct colour. The colour of each product helps design its purpose, how it is used, what for and by whom.
The Uniform Wares aesthetic has been tailored with longevity in mind, we believe that a product should have a practical permanence. Each product is designed at Uniform Wares’ London headquarters.
PAUL SMITH FOR STELTON
Arne Jacobsen’s Cylinda-Line bar accessories have been around since the 1960s and the latest incarnation of the design is courtesy of Paul Smith, who has turned the classic set into “a gorgeous fantasy in black.” Titled simply ‘Statement,’ Smith gave the steel a black titanium finish and accented it with his own personal statements, engraved so the letters shine through the titanium in contrasting steel script, that say inspirational things like “take pleasure seriously” and “start something new.” The Statement bar set is available in limited edition and includes a cocktail mixer and spoon, shaker, ice bucket with tongs, a two-litre jug with strainer, small glass coasters and a serving tray.
THE 7L REMINDER – KARL LAGERFELD
The 7L Reminder is simply one of those really useful books. While traveling the world Karl Lagerfeld has, time and again, unsuccesfully searched for the perfect address/notebook.
So he conceived his own private notebook: with sufficient space for all those numbers one nowadays has to take down in order to communicate.
To satisfy his aesthetic needs he has equipped the book with a photo sequence by Japanese photographer Okada Kuwabara. Thus daily usage of the notebook turns into a perfect pleasure.
Printed on a light elegant paper — perfect for any writing implements — bound in soft dark blue leather, Smyth sewing for longevity, and covered in tissue paper, this is a must have luxury item.
HAOSHI DESIGN ANIMAL JEWELERY
