sexitecture
Hi, this is the work of our friend Jed Darland. Pretty much on the same area: modern furniture and women. Let me know what you think.

sexitecture is clever wordplay, but alas not a profound design concept...unless I am really missing something.
and there is a shortage of product.

Yes and well they should have...
given the way women had been being mistreated.
FWIW, I do not see the images of this website as pornographic, (I frankly didn't see much at all when I looked), rather I see them more as yet another venue of misegination toward women. What it really reminds me of is a Madison Avenue automobile ad in black and white. Women's images are being equated with artifacts--in this case designer furniture. It makes women seem like another product to be consumed, just the way car ads make women seem like accessories to a luxury car to be operated or consumed. Women are not products. Do you hear me Madison Avenue. They are human beings. I don't know. Perhaps I'm making more out of this than meets the eye, but IMHO it does a disservice to women. I've never liked it when photographers or film makers crop women so only parts of them are showing. It makes me feel like the person running the shutter has so much passive aggression towards women (or is so intimidated by them) that he /she can't cope with their wholeness. These photogs seem to have to cut them down to size, so to speak. Tom Wolfe wrote "A Man in Full." We need women in full, too. And no I'm not advocating Playboy foldouts, but if an artist or designer wants to work with nudes at least pay women the respect they deserve and show them in full. And let them use the object rather than be an accessory to it. The same goes for portraying men in visual media. Portray them in full, not in pathetic miniaturization of manhood. Its interesting, isn't it? Women are broken into pieces by mass media. And men, except for a few beef cakes, are portrayed as these vapid, simpering eunuchs. I don't know why this imagery sells products. Perhaps what it does is so lower the self esteem of persons watching it regularly to such a low point that they will buy anything to be relieved of the repugnant image of themselves they have just been confronted with. Whatever, its time American advertisers began to treat American men and women and their children with more dignity and respect. Of course they won't until men and women stop buying the psy-ops structured pitches of too many of these ad hacks.

If Bond girls get paid the same as men for their acting...
then being a Bond girl is nothing to apologize for. I rather like Bond girls, especially BEFORE they are painted gold! 🙂
