As some of you know, we share a studio space with the fine folks from mi-workshop – an architecture & design studio helmed by Miki Iwasaki. Miki has curated one major design-focused exhibition each of the last two years (last year it was called Coffee & Donuts).
This year, Miki and fellow architecture instructor Philipp Bosshart have approached the exhibition from a really interesting angle – prototypes, studies, and the works in progress that lead designers down the path to a final product. The exhibition is called MATTER.
We’ve watched over the last few weeks as Miki and Philipp received some really interesting and varied work submitted from all over the world, including a TRON-esque helmet prototype, some beautiful ceramic hands with metallic patterns, and some bizarre animal/industrial push toys made from extremely heavy steel parts.
MATTER opens at The Bakery this Thursday, Sept. 1st at 7:00 pm.
More info about the show on Miki’s website, as well as a selection announcement on The Bakery website.

Beautiful limited-edition posters from Build for the new Hustwit documentary, Urbanized.

Set & Drift, in conjunction with fellow culture-pushers Neat Neat Neat and the San Diego Architectural Foundation, is proud to present Gary Hustwit’s new documentary, Urbanized, screening in San Diego on Sept. 27th. Hustwit’s last two films (Helvetica and Objectified) have made a huge impact on the design community, and Urbanized promises the same minimal style we’ve all come to love.
Urbanized tackles the planning of cities and the incredible transition of mankind into urban centers, which currently makes up over half the world’s population (and 75% by 2050). Some of the world’s best minds in architecture and planning were interviewed for the film, including one of our heroes, Jan Gehl, who’s tasked his firm with “making cities for people.”

This Friday (6/24), Neat Neat Neat is hosting VOLUME, an art show at one of our favorite independent businesses here in San Diego county – the illustrious UNIV clothing store in Encinitas. The show features work by three musicians (Tim Kerr / Otis B / Sonny Kay), who all ventured into the irresistible world of visual art.
We’re very excited about the exhibition concept – yet another exploration in interdisciplinary goodness by Neat Neat Neat founder Josh Higgins. Keep it up!
