New in store: MRKT design goods

Created by two Harvard-trained architects, MRKT is fresh, fun and unexpectedly functional.

Using Felt as a starting point, the founders make the most amazing looking products: The Delpha Fish Scale bag (pictured) has cut-out flaps on the surface that pop out like fish scales. Spacious, solid and weight friendly, this bag is interestingly water-resistant. The leather-bound bottom layer protects the bag and highlights the kind of practical design thought that goes into their work.

It takes a certain kind of technical mind (the physics and math!) to produce highly useful goods out of unusual materials. And then to make them look this good and out-of-the-world, MRKT is like Glee meets Facebook, in collaboration with Gaga.

Are you combining scholarly smarts with your quirky sense of style?
