Chad Hagen

Introducing my latest obsession Chad Hagen.
Hagen is a Minneapolis based artist and designer who's style is retro meets contemporary/minimalism. He uses various printing methods and collage elements. Music to my ears and candy for my eyes! I wasn't able to find a biography, but his website showcases such a beautiful portfolio. This guy is everything I aspire to be as an artist/designer. I also just found out he's got twitter.


Pretty fucking inspiring.

Floating Shoe Rack

I think we're all guilty of owning too many shoes, that tend to clutter by the door at some point or another. Well, there's a solution! Introducing the Horizontal Shoe Rack. It suspends your shoes above the ground, making it easy to clean underneath (or if you live in snow for 8 months out of the year like I do, you need to place a mat beneath it so that all the slush and salt doesn't leave nasty puddles on your floor).


It's simply mounted onto a wall, easy to install and is available in various sizes, and price ranges between $110-165). You can add more as your shoe collection grows!
Neat. You buy one via dwr.com.
