Tord Boontje Designs For The HP Mini




Play a game of hide and seek with over 30 endangered creatures on the limited edition HP Mini by Studio Tord Boontje. Inspired by harmony in nature and designed by world-renowned industrial designer Tord Boontje, it is intricately crafted using HP Imprint 3D, a world’s first in 3D surface technology.



The Partnership



World-renowned industrial designer, Tord Boontje, is a recipient of multiple prestigious design awards and many of his pieces are displayed in museums around the world. HP and Tord both share a common philosophy – to be socially and environmentally responsible, and to influence others in doing the same.

The Design- A World's First


This exclusive HP Imprint 3D finish is beautifully adorned with flora that weaves delicately around endangered animals, creating a mystical, layered effect.



A closer look reveals shy animals hiding delicately within the flora – like taking a walk in the woods and discovering animals along the way. But these are no ordinary animals – many are endangered animals such as the polar bear, the blue whale, the red squirrel – just a few of the many creatures relying on us to help sustain the world that we share.

Make smarter choices for the environment


This HP Mini features a 10.1-inch mercury-free LED backlit display for increased energy efficiency. With packaging and user guides that are made 100% from recycled materials and printed with soy-based ink, you can now play your part for the environment.

Bored of Tord?


I know I'm risking having woodland creatures crawl into my home and kill me as a result of my mentioning anything negative about the hot designer Tord Boontje, but once a designer starts creating things for Target, the sheen dulls a bit for me.

Now don't get me wrong, I love Target and greatly respect Mr. Boontje. And I've got to give the guy credit.

What started out as a laser cut garland for plain light bulbs (the Midsummer Garland) and a laser cut curtain for those who can't afford doors (hee hee), The Until Dawn Curtain, has become a woodland creature empire. But I'm already sick and tired of seeing a lot of this stuff:



However, what you may not be familiar with is some of his variations on the theme. And that's what I'm here to show you. Below are some of his, shall we say, less attainable products. In other words, you won't find them at Target, or even Moss in NY, but I've got a few pics for you:



I'm sure they'll be in his new design book, available any day now (which, by the way, is 5% cheaper on Overstock than on Amazon and shipping is less too!)



For those of you who simply can't get enough Boontje (pronounced boan-dcha) Bounty, you'll find his ubiquitous curtains, plates, garlands and even tattoos at Unica, Moss, and of course, Target.

Worth a mention is the guy's own site. It's really beautifully designed, you ought to check it out here.

C'mon people, it's only a dollar.
