olafureliasson_21The Sun Project goes down as the best Turbine Hall installation of the noughties, right? But Team CL likes to leave the gallery with a little momento so when we heard that Olafur’s studio had started making product, we very nearly wet ourselves.

Hot off the press comes a skateboard by Olafur for Mekanism that’s utterly gorgeous (or should that be totally rad??) with its mesmeric, ripple-effect underside. Pretty lucky they’re limited to an edition of 90 and cost 3,000 euros – saves us from embarassing, “can’t skate, won’t skate” moments.
