FeLion Studio’s “Made In America” series consists of 48 hand-poured, cast iron skillets shaped like every US state. All assembled they create a map measuring nearly 10ft wide and weighing in at a very American 550lbs.

http://www.feltandwire.com/2012/04/17/michael-bierut-on-rebranding-mohawk/Paul Rand (1914–1996) has written quite eloquently about how logos really are vessels for meaning.
He says the best thing a designer can do is to listen carefully, and then create a vessel that’s the right shape to hold the meaning that can only be added to over time by the company that it’s representing.
If the company does a good job with what their business is and what their enterprise is all about, the goodwill they generate will then accumulate in this vessel that starts empty but eventually is filled up with meaning — meaning that comes from real life and real experience, rather than from the reactions one has just to colors and shapes, which can be so subjective.

The webpage … Think of it as the Library of Alexandria on steroids. And remember that it’s as accessible to someone in Africa on the end of a flaky internet connection as it is to a Virgin subscriber in Notting Hill who gets 50MB per second on a good day.http://www.guardian.co.uk/technology/2012/feb/19/john-naughton-webpage-obesity?cat=technology&type=article
