studio m: happy pills.

Candy is awesome. Drugs are awesome. Candy + Drugs = Mega Awesome.

Um, what I meant to say was Candy is Awesome. Store-bought drugs that are legally sanctioned by the government are awesome. Candy + Tylenol = ….ah, screw it.

Designed in Barcelona by studio m, Happy Pills is a modern day collision between confectionary and apothecary. The store, literally wedged between two large buildings, might go unnoticed if not for the acid-pink Red Cross logo above it’s door. Inside, the pharmaceutical design bend is consistent: jellybean filled pill bottles and fully-stocked “first aid kits” line the shelves, or you can self-medicate by filling up bottles with your candy of choice. My personal fave are the handy “morning-afternoon-night” pill holders, just to make sure your sugar-toothing stays on schedule.

kouji iwasaki : to:ca wood LED clock

If you’re a regular reader then you know by now that I’ve got a fetish for anything combining the organic and technological. So it’s not a big surprise that this TO:CA wood LED clock, designed for Takumi by Kouji Iwasaki, gets me a little giddy.
