A Flamboyance Of Flamingos

“July in South Africa is dreary and wintery so we give all the southern hemisphere dwellers a bit of colour for those grey days. And for the northern hemisphere dwellers a bit of pop for their summer! The Flamboyance of Flamingos is part of our ‘Wonderland Collective Noun’ collection. Each month a new fabulous collective noun is illustrated, printed and made into a desktop wallpaper…” — Designed by Wonderland Collective from South Africa.

A Rascal Of Boys

“Stepping back in time, for some of us 20 years back (ahem), we delve back into our childhood where the Rascal of Boys live. The cool kids wanted to be them, the once sweet girls wanted to kick them, and the posh kids with the fancy kicks were terrified of them. Johnny Camo the expert hide and seek terror, Buzz McFly with his remote controlled spaceship, Jordy Large, the big boy with the tiny brain, Super Boy (origin unknown) and Morty with his pet snake Justice. Together they fight for their rights to stay up late as the B-Team, operating from their hideaway tree house slash fortress of doom.” — Designed by Wonderland Collective from South Africa.

An Intrusion Of Cockroaches

“Ever watched Joe’s Apartment when you where a kid? Well that movie left a soft spot in my heart for the little critters. Don’t get me wrong: I won’t invite them over for dinner, but I won’t grab my flip flop and bring the wrath upon them when I see one running in the house.So there you have it… 3 Roaches… bringing the smack down on that pesky human… ZZZZZZZAP!!”” — Designed by Wonderland Collective from South Africa.

See America!

“Next year is the 100th Anniversary of the creation of the National Parks Service.” — Designed by Andy Sides from the United States.

Sanctus

“July 16, 1969 - Apollo 11 astronauts were launched into space hoping to be the first men to land on the moon and their photograph “Pale Blue Dot” of earth inspired this artwork. You don’t have to have faith or belief in a god to know that this is holy (Sanctus). Time is a finite entity. Only about five billion years to go till the sun explodes. I know it seems like a lot now, but it will soon go if we just squander it on frivolous nonsense and small talk, not only of time passing but time that won’t pass this way again.” — Designed by Richard George Davis from South Africa.

Chance Favors The Connected Mind

“This quote from Steven Johnson reminds us that a great idea can evolve thanks to the combination of your own idea with someone else’s. As diverse as a ice cream cone can be, people having diverse interests and viewpoints are more likely to come up with innovative ideas.” — Designed by Claudette Ocando Röhricht from Germany.
