The country also, like neighboring Japan, has a love of cute, primitively-drawn cartoon characters. So it was just a matter of time before someone combined the two. These pieces are by Korean ceramicist Jiho Song:
Because he draws each character by hand, he can occasionally insert Easter eggs:
Song appears to have a pottery studio in Ye's Park, a crafts village in...

15 Different Design Approaches to Folding or Collapsible Bike Helmets
How many different ways could you possibly design a folding or collapsible helmet? You might be surprised, as we were, having covered a number of different designs over the years. (While most are designed for cyclists, the Japanese ones on this list are intended for natural disaster environments.) Here are fifteen different approaches:
Julien Bergignat and Patrice Mouille's Tatoo HelmetMike Rose's polypropylene Collapsible Helmet

Pam Connolly Weaves Family Snapshots on Vintage Potholder Looms
Across frameworks devised from vintage potholder looms, Hudson Valley-based artist Pam Connolly weaves personal family narratives and explores notions of home. “I grew up in the 1960s in a typical, post-war suburban neighborhood in New Jersey,” she says. “My parents owned a furniture store that was at the center of our family’s universe—everything revolved around it.”
As a child, Connolly roamed the store’s maze of showrooms, immersing herself in the patterns and objects. These curated, aspirational spaces instilled a fascination with make-believe and our surroundings that has accompanied her in her lens-based career for the past three decades.
