20ltd is a link that someone sent to me, and I've been very impressed with the site. Essentially, 20ltd has taken the concept of the Design Crack site and turned it into a retail business, which, I would like to add, is much more difficult and riskier than simply talking about design.
So, 20ltd, I give you props. The concept of the site, to be more specific, is to take 20 items from well-known designers that have been curated for their exceptional uniqueness, and offer these items on the 20ltd website for those daring enough to pay the price. Although I will never own one of Ted Noten's strange purses (shown above) because it's unattainable for me, I do like to look at well designed objects such as this, and the 20ltd website offers close inspection of their objects. (That was quite a run-on sentence!) At any rate, if you are a design addict like myself then I urge you to browse this site. You'll find items like the exceptionally rich Henk suitcase which I've covered in the past, and a number of items that I will shortly tackle after visiting this awesome site.
