ALBA
June 30th, 2010
ALBA owes its name to Federico Garcia Lorca’s famous play The House of Bernarda Alba. On the first scene of the first act Bernarda’s house is described; “White room, thick walls, ‘enea’ chair”. The enea (straw) chair was once the de-facto chair in many countries around the world. A simple wooden frame with hand woven straw around the seat and backrest. A workhorse chair used as a basic dining chair and favoured by flamenco guitar players.
With ALBA we wanted to create an homage to the traditional enea chair. Taking its soul and giving it a new body. A light and strong aluminium skeleton with contemporary lines but always respecting the simplicity and character of the original classic.
PRETTY BETTY

OK, so Betty is dressing MUCH better these days… but we thought that her glasses, although endearing, still had some room for improvement, so we set ourselves the brief to redesign them for her – and this is what happened. Read more »
STEPS
January 11th, 2010
Not sure about you, but we feel that most male watches are either too techy or too minimal. STEPS is the result of a design investigation we have recently finished aimed at finding the right spot for a contemporary watch that conveys a sense of precision without making you look like a wannabe pilot.
Sonel Netbook
December 13th, 2009
SONEL is a concept Netbook created by Lovely&Co for one of the leading fashion houses in Europe. Netbooks are small computers that are always connected to the internet and – at 250mm x 120mm – sit somewhere between a small laptop and a large Smart phone. The concept behind Sonel is to create a luxury Netbook that borrows more from the emotional values and craftsmanship of Haute Couture than from your average high-tech gadget.

SOAR
October 4th, 2009
These glasses won the prestigious Opus Design Award in 2006. The core components have been reduced to just 3 main parts – a single glass lens and two titanium arms. This creates a compelling visual tension and a very pure appearance drawing the focus to the single lens and giving it a jewel-like quality.
MOTO W375
October 4th, 2009
The MOTO375 is a sweet and inexpensive phone. We used some very simple and low cost solutions – like the illuminated icons instead of using an external display or the gradient paint- to increase the perceived value and give its own personality without increasing the cost of the product.
STEPHEN FRY ON THE MOTOU9
September 20th, 2009
This article is over a year old but – hey!, it is not everyday that you get Stephen Fry to say nice things about your work in The Guardian.
“If you want a sweet little phone that causes eyes to pop and mouths to drop, then the U9 is for you. If you can wait a few years… well, one drools. One positively drools.”
And if you don’t believe us you can read the full article here
