With cream cheese filling. I know. As soon as any month with the suffix -ber rolls around I’m all about pumpkin everything. Last Friday I made these Pumpkin Whoopie Pies with cream cheese filling and they turned out perfect. The cookies were caky and the filling just sweet enough. The only problem? I have two dozen of them and no plans for giving any away…

I’ve seen Tauba Auerbach’s RGB Colorspace Atlas plastered across the design web and couldn’t resist sharing it for myself. Auerbach created an 8x8x8″ book depicting every color of the web airbrushed across its cover and pages. It’s the Photoshop color picker come to life!

So now you know that I’m on this year’s Electrolux Design Lab jury. A total honor for me. And you’re about to know what the ten finalist designs are. An even bigger honor for them. The competition was mighty steep (1,200 entries!), and I’d be lying if I didn’t already have a few favorites. You can read more about the finalists right here after viewing the concepts below. Bonus? Click on each image to check out a video of each product in action!

A poster that actually tells time. Another that illuminates like a lamp. And a third that delivers sound. It’s safe to say that artist Finn Magee knows how to think outside the box and execute. The Flat Time and Flat Light posters function with the use of LED lights, while Flat Sound employs the thinnest speaker commercially available.
What’s better than a cleanly designed vase? Several cleanly designed vases nestled one inside the other, where each outer vase has to be broken in order to reach the next. What shape will the next one be? Is it worth it? Curious Vase is definitely aptly named. (via Design Mom)
Both of my dogs are rescues, so I’m all about everything Found My Animal stands for. (In fact, I shared them here in 2009 for the first time!) All of their marine grade accessories are created especially for adopted dogs and their people, even the predominant orange color used throughout the line is the color for adopted animals! It had been awhile since I checked in on their shop, so I was really happy to see it flourishing with a vengeance. They have several new accessories, in fact I think Bebe‘s new collar is there somewhere…
