There are those who say I have Champagne taste.
I take that to mean that I have awesome taste.
In the interests of spreading Awesome to others, I'd like to introduce you to Artecnica designer Tord Boontje. A Netherland-born student of industrial design, and creator of the garland light chandelier, I covet his pieces -- hard core -- because of their detailed paper-cutting sensibility (think elementary-school-reminiscent construction paper snowflakes, minus the rough edges). Aside from The Chandelier I Will Someday Have at Whatever Cost, and the Flora garland above, here are some additional pieces from Boontje:
Fairy Tale garland made from wood-free paper:
