Cesar Cueva brings fresh new ideas to jewelry by mixing gold and silver with ideas of architectural structures and geometric shapes. These forms are often nestled together reminding us of city landscapes and housing structures.

Bags by Weidesign
Weidesign is a new label by Chantal van der Erve (Design Academy) and Rob Groenen, which launched during Dutch Design Week. Based in the Netherlands, Weidesign creates handcrafted modern bags from pure wool felt and vegetable-tanned leather. Their bags are designed to carry the latest and greatest in electronics for contemporary nomads. They’ve also designed a felt basket for holding magazines or newspapers.
Form Follows Fun
I want this shirt so badly it hurts, but I just can’t justify spending $55 on a t-shirt.
Earshell
We recently posted about Kawamura-Ganjavian’s Scenter, but their newest product is the Earshell.
We use earrings as symbols of distinction since time immemorial, however they are not particularly useful items. The Earshell is a simple, efficient and elegant sound enhancing device. It can be used to improve our listening of music or opera. Its refined and sleek profile gives it a jewellery feel.
LaCie Coat
Another great design from LaCie. These laptop “coats” cover 10.2-17″ screens, and come with or without a handle.
Designer Desktops: March 2010
We all work very hard, many of us spending countless hours staring at our computer screens. So I thought, why not have something pretty and inspirational to stare at? This is a new project we’re going to try out here on Design Milk — Designer Desktops. Starting this month, Design Milk will create a beautiful desktop wallpaper for you to download to your computer and iPhone, inspired by a thought-provoking quote from a renown designer. This is all in good fun, and best of all, they’re free!
This first month, we’re kicking things off with none other than Mr. Charles Eames.

This month’s design was created by our very own talented Eleanor Cleverly. Learn more about her here.

Folded Ring by Emily Miranda
Metals seem to bend effortlessly for Emily Miranda. She has this fantastic way of making objects look like they were effortlessly created.
Introducing Dog Milk: Design for Modern Dogs
Yes, that’s right! We’ve officially launched Dog Milk, our brand new site dedicated to modern design for modern dogs.
I have two dogs (Lulu and Beans) and found that there was not a site dedicated to modern dog products or modern dog design out there. There needs to be a place where modern dog lovers can discover new products and find what’s beyond the chain pet stores — that’s Dog Milk. It’s also a place for us to share our thoughts on pet product designs, offer tips & tricks, and review modern dog products.
With the help of my co-pilots Lulu and Beans I will be updating Dog Milk daily, and we hope that you modern dog lovers will join us!
