1. Four – as in four-legged friends. It takes a lot to get me to linger on a pet’s site so this wonderfully designed doggy destination was a surprise. Check out their post on Kuntzel+Deygas who painted the Eames chair below.

2. Designer Alvin Aronson‘s site for this cool prototype of a perfectly white digital clock.

3. Design Milk for their post on this pencil holder from Giha Woo.

4. Swissmiss for her post on Instagram – an obsession I share. It’s a lithe little bit of social media perfect for capturing just about everything and now it looks like the pics can be accessed more easily, making it an even better work tool.

5. Cool Hunting for the story on all-natural cleaning porducts. Perfect for getting that desktop sparkling.

6. Wallpaper magazine for their lovely “Letter from Japan” architecture update. Below – House in Seya, Kanagawa, by Suppose Design Office.

7. Design Applause‘s coverage of Belkin’s green power strip.

8. Dwell’s excellent “Small Spaces” series (the house below is the most recent addition to the series).

9. A Brief Message for Hugh Graham’s short essay on design – “We have the opportunity and the responsibility to create a world where each object and experience is filled with value, where living with less but better is both joyful and meaningful.” We couldn’t agree more.

10. Field Notes new red notebooks. I use these little notebooks in the car and always have one on hand in my purse. Nicely designed, small and light weight.
