Sorted Books: It's All in the Details

As an addendum to my last post on "design solutions for storing and showcasing books in your home," I give you artist Nina Katchadourian's Sorted Books project. An ongoing project since 1993, Sorted Books is a great example for utilizing a collection of books to make an artistic statement. The idea is simple: cull through your collection of books, pulling particular titles and grouping the books into clusters, so that the titles can be read in sequence, from top to bottom. I've always believed that inspiring design is all in the details, and taking the time to create interesting statements in this fashion is a prime example. I'm in love with this idea.

Lingerie Football League

There are significant differences between most women football leagues and the Lingerie Football League. The Lingerie Football League is an organization based on sex appeal, due to the nontraditional, revealing uniforms and partial selection of roster by physical appearance. It also plays under a modified indoor football format with a reduced-size field, so that it can be played in smaller venues.
