One of my favourite posts I've ever done was on Carl Kleiner, back in August '11, so I was pretty pleased when I heard he's be working on a new project. The photographer, along with stylist Evelina Kleiner (they must have got married since I last blogged about them, excellent!) really do have some brilliantly creative ideas and their latest effort really does get the excitement veins a-popping. Above is the second time Kleiner has worked with Ikea, the first was for their successful cookery book Home is Best. This time around he concentrated on Kitchenware, with pretty effective results. Now these photos tick three boxes for me, my love of homeware/designy stuff in general, cooking and of course OCD heaven, Things Organized Neatly.
Tidy house tidy mind, well here's to wishful thinking.

I love those!!! Amazing...
ReplyDeleteas i was looking at the pics, i was thinking "must tell Mat about Things Organized Neatly" and BOOM, you already knew it. lovely post - so cute that they're married. i bet their wedding was really...neat? xx
ReplyDeleteLove the pictures. Makes me want to buy everything xx
ReplyDeletewhen things are arranged like this, they become more interesting while they're simple kitchen things. :)

I could stare at this for hours.
ReplyDeleteimpressive.
ReplyDeleteThese are sweet, even the colour combinations are spot on. I think a tumblr was set up just to honor all things neatly organised. I spent ages just scrolling through page after page, it's strangely statisfying. Although I have to admit that I'm more of a 'out of sight, out of mind' sort of gal!
ReplyDeleteI've been thinking of drawing some mens stuff, because I usually do check out mens outfits - especially the colour combinations to see what could work for me. I've always wanted to wear electric blue shoes but I don't think I'm brave enough, plus I could never really picture how to wear them. Although today looked at some outfits inspired by mens fashion and it's swayed me even more now.
I managed to find the 2d handbags I mentioned previously, they're awesome, really play with the mind! http://www.purseblog.com/novelty-bags/these-handbags-are-designed-to-look-like-cartoons-and-they-totally-do.html
That last image just made my morning. Delicious colour palette!
ReplyDeletethese shots are as amazing as IKEA's cafeteria food.
ReplyDeleteAmazing! I'm not sure if it's the symmetry or the fact the it's all made from household objects... but these are delightfully fresh and fun. Seriously cool... as if I needed another reason to LOVE ikea. The $1 hotdogs are enough to keep me coming back. xx
ReplyDeleteWhew. Amazing. The colours are brilliant.. The first two and the last are really impressive to me. But in all pictures every little detail is so spot on.
ReplyDeleteHaha when I read they were doing the new Ikea Catalogue I thought of your post on him! Amazing.
ReplyDeleteOh wow, thanks for writing about this. These are really pleasing to look and I would even love to have one framed !
ReplyDeleteI love these photographs! IKEA tries so hard, yet they will never shake off their reputation for poorly-written instruction booklets and bad people-handling skills (did you hear about that 'comedy' advert they did, leaving the audience waiting for hours with a kettle and some teabags?!).
