The idea behind Curiosities Series by Isle Skateboards was to ask three pro-skaters to gather up some of their collected ideas (from travelling, childhood, gifts...) that all mean something to them. The items would then be photographed in a custom-made shelving unit and turned into skateboard decks. I like the idea that each skater can ride around with their possessions still with them, wherever their work takes them. Read more here, available here.
I could bang on about this week but I want to look forward to the next. There's so many things going around in my head, but I have to remind myself that it's OK to say "no" to things. Not every opportunity is right for us. So I'm saying "yes" to catching up with all your blogs, comments and emails this weekend. How's about you guys?

That's such a nice idea for a skateboard design. Hope you get some time to unwind this weekend Mat!
ReplyDeleteThese skateboard shelves are a sweet idea! That bike ride is craaazy, I got dizzy watching it and freaked out for a minute when the cyclist flipped over the fence. The scenery are so beautiful though!
