As seen in theTweet Like Don Draper article by Design Taxi, two digital firms have created Tweephone, the first analogue Twitter client. It looks like a retro rotary phone, and uses old-school texting methods (hit 1 once for A, twice for B, etc). Except, you have to dial these letters in, obviously. A bit time consuming, but interesting.

Terry Border started out making wire sculptures out of wire and objects lying around, in 2006. The blog, Bent Objects, evolved into creating clever little scenarios, with the objects being more of the main focus than the wire. He tends to stick to pictures that tell an elaborate, twisted story. What started out as a side project ended up with publishing two books. Bent Objects: The Secret Life of Everyday Things (2009), and Bent Object of My Affection (2011). Click the photos to get a closer look!

Boxsal has the read-it-two-ways tagline “pretty. fun. picnic.” Their picnic boxes include a Color By Number set for a fun, creative date, a faux-briefcase set for a refreshing office lunch, and an old school boombox design for an urban outdoor meal. They’re $25 for the box, 8 recycled napkins and compostable dining ware (8 bowls, 4 utensil sets, 4 cups, a tray, and a trash bag). It’s a little pricey, but cute and proof that you can market a simple idea. Check out their website here.

‘Characters for an Epic Tale’ by Tom Gauld.
Such simple drawings and kind of a silly idea, but I like it. I feel like you can pick a handful of these guys, throw them in a mixer with random locations and situations, and come out with something fun.
