Constructivists Teapot from Parasite Ceramics Posted: 27 Sep 2011 10:22 AM PDT British housing estates have proved a surprising source of creative inspiration in recent years, with Trellick Tower adorning everthing from bags to plates. The Market Estate in Caledonian Road, North London, was demolished in 2010 but has inspired a range of products from Parasite Ceramics including this Constructivists Teapot. A silhouette tower adorns this good-looking white fine bone china teapot, reinventing the sixties tower block as stylish design motif. Not only does the teapot look good, but crucially it's substantial enough to hold six cups of tea. Other items in the range include plates and mugs. You can buy the teapot for £25 from Culturelabel here.

"Infinite Variety" Ketchup Print by Francis Long Posted: 27 Sep 2011 03:11 AM PDT The Heinz ketchup bottle can be found in virtually very British kitchen - and now artist Francis Long has immortalised it in this "Infinite Variety" print. This clever play on "57 Varieties" began life as a sculpture on the E17 Art Trail, an annual festival which sees Walthamstow artists and makers open their doors to exhibit their work. The three bottles contain the primary colours which are of course the basis for an infinite variety of colours. The print is available from the E17 Art House as a limited edition, super-size screenprint costing £150. Find out more here.
