Rainy Day Wishes, Seating and Flooring In One, 2D Flowers, and a Whole Lotta Nothing
Los Angeles Slinks for 12.19.08

121908atlaslinks.jpgThe last Slinks of 2008 include a rainy day themed greetings card, a seating solution that literally disappears into the floor, 2D floral arrangements and the gift of absolutely...NOTHING!

 
 
  • Rainy Day letterpress card: Bring a little sunshine to a special recipient with these rainy day themed cards.
  • Red Dot Award: Design Concept 2008 Hide & Seek: Hide & Seek is both a floor tile and a fold-up chair. It increases the functional possibilities of space, and can improve how space is utilised.
  • Flat Flowers Original: Flat Flowers are 2D static-sticker floral arrangements for any smooth surface, visible from both sides.
  • Nothing: For that not-so-special person in your life, get them a whole pack of nothing.

The "gift of nothing" symbolizes everything that is wrong with our consumer culture. I'm so glad that a factory somewhere in China is belching out noxious fumes and underpaying its workers to produce this tone deaf trinket that will make its way to dumpsters and landfills worldwide.

Unfortunately, there are people in my life this year who wholly deserve the gift of nothing. At roughly $6.49 USD, however, this feels too generous...

I'd be happy to sell you nothing for just $5.00! And no shipping costs either ...

pod:
I was thinking the *exact* same thing. Another senseless and wasteful product, just what we need...

I think they may border on or actually be tacky . . . but I can't help myself . . . I love the flat flowers! I think I might actually buy one (the yellow tulips in the black and white vase).
