Some cracking stuff in here. I really like the housing scheme in Harlow - finally, something other than the twee shite that seems to get built in every other development. Probably worth a visit if you're anywhere near the Design Museum... [url= http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/magazine-26648326 ]Innovative, functional and beautiful - London's Design Museum is celebrating the best in global creativity. From striking architectural structures and concept cars made of polystyrene - to curvaceous chairs and floating schools.[/url]

Also, this video from Metro in Melbourne warning youngsters about messing around near trains. ๐Ÿ˜†

I take a year group of kids there for that exhibition every year. Never fails to inspire.

There's a iPhone game based on "Dumb Ways..", kept me occupied on the bus on my snowboarding hol ๐Ÿ™‚ (My kid had downloaded it, not me!)

Some other really inspiring stuff in the video too!

That film would have had a lasting effect on me as a child. Mainly via nightmares at squidgy things getting sliced and diced.

I especially like the Bodleian chairs, though less keen on the wheeled items for the UN.

Mrs deadly is doing a stint at McCann in Brizzle at the moment. It was she that alerted me to it. Needless to say the company is frothing (in a good way) about it. ๐Ÿ™‚
