Moleskine have surely created on of the most "notable" notebook collections of our generation.

With clever city-dedicated travel collections MoleskineCity, and their current film festival and director-inspired special editions which recognise the best of the best. A Film Journal and Story Notebook dedicated to Tribeca, Locarno and Venice film festivals, alongside Tim Burton, Spike Jonze and Mike Figgis.

My eye also caught their inclusion in Konstantin Grcic's "Black 2 (Black and Square)"



An exhibition currently on at Rome's Istituto Svizzero di Roma by the German industrial designer.

Who | Konstantin Grcic
What | Black 2 (Black and Square)

When | December 12 - February 12, 2011

Grcic is a multidisciplinary master! Industrial designer and artist to say the least!

"Black2 (Black and Square)- through a selection of fifty products that are more or less well-known (or at times popular even), Grcic combines non- homogeneous objects within a homogeneous formal and linguistic category."
....Concentrating on the triviality or importance behind the creation of each object, "the deliberated choice of a man in a precise production and social context, that is the contemporary era." I like this.

Perhaps something we should consider more often...... AC xo
