Objectiwhyayefied


After the sublime success of Helvetica: The Movie (more of a fontography really), we here at The Northern can't wait to see Gary Hustwit's new film Objectified.

Through vérité footage and in-depth conversations, the film documents the creative processes of some of the world’s most influential product designers, and looks at how the things they make impact our lives. What can we learn about who we are, and who we want to be, from the objects with which we surround ourselves?

Oh and the quite excellent Michael C. Place and the merry people at Build have again designed some fantastic prints.

As soon as we have a whip round and sell the works experience lads left kidney we'll have a couple of these on our studio walls.

Now if only Gary Hustwit brought a screening up north, Sunderland, Newcastle, Durham, Brockley Winns anywhere will do Gary, when you're ready marra...
