An idea you can wear

Here at Idealog we’re always looking for new talent. So in our last issue we asked able young designers to send us their Idealog-worthy ideas for our shiny new t-shirt. If you were at Semi-Permanent you may have met our winner, Lachlan Palmer-Hubbard, and bought his Idealog genie-us tee at our stand.

Lanchlan, a 22-year-old designer, says he wants his design to show the many sides of Idealog and he wanted to convey the creative aspect of business.

Thanks to all our entrants. And if you missed out on purchasing an Idealog T at Semi-Permanent, printed on superfine organic cotton, don’t panic. You can buy one at Trade Me for a mere $25.

Audi designer Wolfgang Egger brings the A5 Sportback to life right in front of our eyes. It’s all about three lines, apparently, but those three lines have been obsessed over. Enjoy the autospeak: the rear comes complete with both accent and elbow.

The target of higher GDP per capita is all wrong. Aiming for it encourages more production and consumption, often at the expense of quality of life. We need to construct a Genuine Progress Index (GPI) to guide policy. Fr …

Phil Wollerman on Smile, you’re in New Zealistan:
Brilliant, insightful article, VH.

This situation has principally arisen because - simplistically - the world no longer wants what we are intrinsically advantaged in supplying.

And yeah, it doesn't look like our co …
Anon on Smile, you’re in New Zealistan:
The answer lies in a) increasing the returns to capital and b) decreasing the cost of capital. To do a) we need to reduce corporate and income taxes and replace them with land, resource, pollution and infrastructure char …
