Want to have a guess what the most popular item ever is at urbanretro.co.uk? Well, the clue’s in the title. Yes, you got it right, it’s the Poketo Artist Wallet by Peskimo! The reason why this item is so well-loved is because of the originality of its design. For instance, on the outside of the wallet there’s a giant green monster spewing up a sad black rain cloud, while little pandas and robots fly against a rising sun backdrop! How crazy, but cool, is that! On the inside of the wallet, the monster makes an appearance again, roaring with some cute little pandas in a bubble. Seeing as this wallet is everyone’s favourite item, we thought we’d give you a bit more info on Peskimo. It’s the brainchild of a British monster-drawing duo known as David and Jodie. Their unique artistic style has gathered a lot of attention across the world, and there are some interesting web sites that you can visit to see more of their work. Starting off, the best place to go is peskimo.com, where you can view all kinds of weird and wonderful pictures and toy sets, as well as viewing their very own blog here. On top of that, there are some more wacky prints at moo.com and a whole host of images available to view at flickr.com. You’ll soon see why Peskimo are so popular when you visit these lovely links!

We’re big fans of GelaSkins here at Urban Retro. What an ingenious way to keep your portable device clean and scratch-free while also displaying unique artwork. It’s a neat idea that’s really taken off, and is being supported by an ever-increasing number of super talented artists. And as the iphone 3G has made an impressive impact on mobile phone technology, it just had to have its own GelaSkin collection too! We’re pleased to tell you that all the new designs for this amazing gadget are now available at urbanretro.co.uk. There is some awe-inspiring artwork in this new collection, such as the Paper Cranes GelaSkin by Nanami Cowdroy. It has a distinctive monochrome style, with stencil shadowed streetlamps and flying origami paper cranes. Truly a sight to behold. Then there’s the Abraham Obama GelaSkin by Ron English, which makes a clever political statement with a striking design. Classic modern art also gets a look-in too, with Edvard Munch’s expressionist masterpiece The Scream being displayed on the GelaSkin form.
