Australian born designer Marc Newson takes his ‘industrial artist’ title very seriously. Having designed practical and functional goods such as chairs, cars and planes, he’s also taken his design skills and applied them to an idea that’s well beyond this earth, as he even designed a spaceship. It’s not all grand-scale and limited edition designing [...]

Swiss watchmaker Hublot celebrates Brasilia (Brazil’s capital) and the architect who planned the modernist dream city with its aptly named Aero Bang Niemeyer watch.

Who’s got time to wind 16 timepieces individually? That’s a whole lot of wrist-turning. If you have 16 watches — and $100,000 (€75,000) lying around — then you’ll wanna pick up OriginTimes ridiculous Bugatti engine-block derived watch winder. Utilizing the Bugatti Veyron’s 16 cylinder engine, each goatskin-lined piston chamber fits and winds its own watch. [...]
