Objectified by Gary Hustwit

"Objectified is a feature-length documentary about our complex relationship with manufactured objects and, by extension, the people who design them. It’s a look at the creativity at work behind everything from toothbrushes to tech gadgets. It’s about the designers who re-examine, re-evaluate and re-invent our manufactured environment on a daily basis. It’s about personal expression, identity, consumerism, and sustainability.

Through vérité footage and in-depth conversations, the film documents the creative processes of some of the world’s most influential product designers, and looks at how the things they make impact our lives. What can we learn about who we are, and who we want to be, from the objects with which we surround ourselves?" (from Objectifiedfilm.com)

Mikimoto: Eternal Love Window Display

I love the dramatic yet airy quality of this Mikimoto display. The blustery tornado of petals, mimicking the shape of a wing, draws the eye down to a beautiful sheet of stone (I believe that's what it is) where the jewelry is delicately displayed. I think it could do without the floating cherub with a fountain pen; this could be swapped for a little more accenting on the jewelry in the window in the form of height/color/lighting. (via NOTCOT)
