“Print media does much of society’s heavy journalistic lifting, from flooding the zone — covering every angle of a huge story — to the daily grind of attending the City Council meeting, just in case.

Joy de Vivre Inc. is a new company founded by two brothers who approach design based on consumer input. Their first released piece is called Cellule. Cellule is a modern alternative to traditional wood lattice for urban gardeners. It serves as a lovely colorful place for your ivy and other climbing plants to grow. I think this would make really cool fencing or a cover for ugly fencing. http://www.joydevivre.org
