Matt JOnes aka Lunartik has been working on his worldwide ‘Custom Tea Tour’ together with 30 top notch artists, in which artists decorate a trendy little character together with a lovely cup of tea and now it’s finishing at the Kidrobot Store in London, where it will be displayed for one week from the 15th Oct (that’s tomorrow) and auctioned off for charity to help raise money for the NSPCC.

There’s a great eclectic range of style from many different artist, a few of which are below including pieces from Tado, Ian Stevenson, Jefff, Graham Powell, and Veggiesomething, though you can take a looksy through all of them at Matt Jones flickr page, or if your around the big smoke you can pop in to see them in the flesh. Head down to the Kidrobot Store, just off Shaftesbury Ave in London. Available for you to bid on ebay from the 15th October 2010 and bidding ends on the 22nd.

Loving these soda cans for Jones Soda as a limited edition to go with the Halloween season, designs by Superbig Creative

More great product design in the Absolut franchise. This time, Absolute No Label.

Stripped bare of its blue Futura Extra Bold logotype, the bottle has become a minimalist prototype of the original short-necked Absolut bottle designered by Gunnar Broman and Hans Brindfors in 1979. Helping it represent that it’s all about what’s on the inside which counts.

Nice little credit card case for you to keep your iphone and those important cards safely together in one place. Variations of 8 colours available from here.

Nice bit of design and interbranding. An exclusive bottle range for Evian is given a design make over by Paul Smith. This follows other limited edition design bottles by Gaultier and Lacroix.
