Carl Warner keeps on building edible worlds

I've always been a great fan of Carl Warner's foodscapes, those wonderful landscapes made up with just... food!
He is getting more and more famous thanks to his creative idea and many food-producing brands has used his masterpieces for their advertising campaigns. Obviously at the same time many other photographers are trying to copy the idea but, as usual, Warner's work, with ten year experience and a lot of passion, is always the best.

You can read three previous SeaWayBLOG's posts about his foodscapes:

• The amazing foodscapes by Carl Warner
• Carl Warner's fishermen's village
• London's skyline has never been more delicious

Each time I check his website and find a new foodscape he always manages to amaze me for the perfection of the details and the similarities he find between food and elements of a landscape. For example in the picture above Warner made a Chinese Junk for a Hong Kong shopping mall using only products native to the region, such as bok choy and savoy cabbage for the sea and dried lotus leaves for the ships sails.
Here there's a gallery of his last works that are more or less related to water:

The amazing Air Umbrella

I've seen many many bizarre umbrellas in my life, but this is by far the most unconventional one and, if it works, I really would like to have one!
Imagine the faces of your friends, when during a rainy day you draw an umbrella with no canopy... you push a button and a sheet of air becomes a barrier between you and the raindrops!



Don't worry if your partner has forgotten his umbrella the size of the air curtain is adjustable with a single-double selector and when the rain stops you can reduce the length and put it in a bag.
The authors of this clever design are Je Sung Park & Woo Jung Kwon.

Gone fishing to spice up your dinner table

One of those cool design ideas I like so much: aach piece in this stainless steel cutlery set is whimsically fish-shaped, right down to tail, fins, mouth, and eyes.
The playfulness of this pattern will reel you in hook, line, and sinker. Not surprisingly, Gone Fishin' claims a place in Yamazaki's Museum Collection... and there's everything: Teaspoon, Salad Fork, Soup Spoon, Dinner Fork, Dinner Knife, Appetizer fork, Teaspoon, Salad Serving Set..and so on

Here you can buy them
and if you like this kind of thingd there's a nice collection of Creative and Unusual Cutlery Designs on Toxel.
