Industrial Design Research: Form Studies for Writing/Drawing Utensils, by BKID
"Write, Draw, Think" is a research project by South Korean ID firm BKID. It was undertaken for the National Hangeul Museum in Seoul, which is dedicated to the country's writing system, Hangeul.

Beginning from the most fundamental act of "writing," the work expands various modes of writing and thinking into new forms of tools.

A Giant Wool Form by Nicola Turner Heaves and Skitters Through an 18th-Century Chapel
In a converted 18th-century chapel on the grounds of Yorkshire Sculpture Park, a strange form creeps through openings in the architecture. One can imagine its clipper- and knife-footed tendrils scurrying across the floor as it spills from an upper aperture and even slithers around part of the building’s exterior. Its otherworldly genesis is at the hands of Nicola Turner, known for her monumental, contorted textile installations that often heave and surge from structures and public spaces.
Turner’s solo exhibition, Time’s Scythe, comprises forms made of recycled wool and horsehair, which she hand-stitches inside of mesh to create the bulging, knotted forms....

Design platform Capsule accused of not paying "dozens" of contributors
As Capsule magazine prepares to host the fourth edition of its popular Capsule Plaza exhibition at Milan design week, a chorus of previous collaborators has accused the company of a pattern of non-payment.
Twelve former contributors, including key associates, designers, photographers and production crew, have told Dezeen they've either not been paid for their work, experienced year-long delays, or personally witnessed evidence of non-payment behind the scenes.
Most spoke only on the condition of anonymity, given their proximity to the company and the fact that several are embroiled in ongoing legal disputes to recoup the money they say they are owed.
