Anyone hungry? These fleshy volumnous sculptures by artist Erwin Wurm would make the ideal corporate or delivery vehicle for McDonalds.
Artist Stuart Haygarth turns trash into treasure. In his new show at Haunch of Venison, pieces of debris scavenged from regular trips to flea markets, beaches and car boot sales, his found objects are meticulously sorted and graded by color and material and his resulting work invests seemingly banal, overlooked objects with a startling new significance, recalling the hidden stories and emotions they once held.
Thanks to The Selby, here's a sneak peek inside the New York studio of fashion designer of the moment Alexander Wang. The interior design is by new young thing Ryan Korban, and while there is nothing super new about this look, it still manages to tick all the right boxes by using a well edited selection of furniture pieces that give the space a unique character.
D&ALab (Design and Art Laboratory) invites artists to conceive works using new techniques that balance art and design.

A year after we first introduced you to Martin Margiela's foray into interiors (launched at the Milan Salone in 2009) we have a completed interior project by the fashion design house. Les Sources de Caudalie is a luxury spa in the Bordeaux region of France. The "Ile aux Oiseaux" suite sits apart from the hotel in an idyllic stilt-mounted cabin. Filled with calfskin rugs, cracked mirrors and antique furniture, and amidst the typically Margiela white-on-white decor, a shocking flash of scarlet comes in the form of a giant pair of lips—a replica of Salvador Dali’s classic Mae West Sofa from 1936.
