Minimalist animal portraits created by Milan based designer Andrea Minini, who uses Adobe illustrator and moiré patterns (visual interference caused by the overlay of lines normally regarded as an unwelcome artefact of digital imaging) to create pleasing illusions of depth and movement.
From the OCDelicious Tumblr of designer Inka Mathew wherein tiny objects are colour matched with equally tiny Pantone swatches.

Self-balancing, motion tracking , responsive to voice commands, cute as the Dickens and probably available to buy later this year for around €80.

New York based artist Samantha Keely Smith’s multilayered abstract ‘seascapes’ that are not in fact seascapes. In an interview with Never Lazy magazine she described them as:
…not at all real places or even inspired by real places. They are emotional and psychological places. Internal landscapes, if you will. The tidal pull and power of the ocean makes sense to me in terms of expressing these things, and I think that is why some of the work has a feel of water about it. My work speaks of things that are timeless, and I think that for most of us the ocean represents something timeless.
