  • Design Column for October

    I have a new design column up at Tokyo Q. This month: a look at a few Good Design Award winners, Toyo Ito, some Tokyo Design Week info, and Roughtoyz/Loughtoys’ Snapazoo.

  • Mamma Gun Logo

    This is the logo that you need to keep an eye on! And the Mamma Gun site now has a neat intro screen, as well as a printable map to Cafe Pause (with event info). Update (16/09/04): The image is no longer available.

  • Mamma Gun: The Site

    Jesper has whipped up a site to help promote our “Mamma Gun sager: Ta en PAUS” event at Cafe Pause. It just went live, and so doesn’t have much yet, but it will get updated over the coming weeks as we have more info to share.

  • Snapazoo for Swedish Style

    As part of the Swedish Style events we’ve been organizing, we’ve managed to get the Laughtoys‘ inaugural product, Snapazoo, be names as official mascot. The image you see above (created by NCM, and which you’ll also recognize as part of my new site banner) was used in Swedish Style’s press presentation from last week, and…

The one on the right features a young Mamma Gun (Jesper’s actual mother —…

  • On Display

    A fun book display at Junkudo.

  • Still There, Barely

    Just wanted to update you on the state of Jean Snow — yes, I’ve become an entity (or so it seems). I am getting better, but a cough and runny nose persist. What really saddens me is that I’ve pretty much lost the last two weeks to this, and now I’m having to play catch-up…

  • Gimme Some Health

    I don’t know what’s wrong with me, but that cold/flu I had last weekend has come back over the weekend, giving me another crap weekend to deal with. I wasn’t 100% when I went to work last week, but I still managed to plow through my regular schedule, figuring I’d be able to relax on…
