pinata: $145; necklace: $190; pinata: $135
How’s this for cool? (Ok, not the horrible Flash the site it’s built on.) CONFETTISYSTEM is a project by Brooklyn based Nicholas Andersen and Julie Ho focused on the creation of objects made from simple materials like tissue paper, silk, cardboard, and leather. CONFETTISYSTEM has done installation related work for clothing shops like Assembly and Opening Ceremony and clothing labels like United Bamboo, but they also participate in art exhibitions.
I love the simple, pretty silk and leather necklaces, but the piñatas are just plain awesome. Everything is handmade including the confetti inside the piñatas. I wish the directional arrows in the Catalogue, Shop, and Projects sections weren’t broken because there seems to be plenty more of their work to be seen.
