Friends with Hamburgers




In their own words:
FriendsWithYou is an art collective founded by the Miami-based artists, Sam Borkson and Arturo Sandoval. Since its conception in 2002, FriendsWithYou has continued to promote the two artists' common message of Magic • Luck • Friendship through its various means of creative expression and commercial activity.


I just read a rant on designobserver.com. The author of the post was disappointed with the representation of contemporary design works included in the show “Design Life Now”, an exhibition at the Cooper Hewitt National Design Museum in New York City. He metioned some designers he thought were more worthy of inclusion in the show than some that were exhibited, so i decided to take a look at one of them called ”Friends With You“ and who did I see? MR. TTT hamburger and friends. It is refreshing to see designers who don't take themselves too seriously.
