things done well | i hate you ::
Monday, April 13th, 2009:: for those that don’t know, TaoBao.com is the eBay of China. As with eBay, it’s chock full of listings of more of the same. Sometimes though, something shines through the dross and catches your eye.
An indie design “shop” in Beijing called I Hate You, has done some wonderful work in making their products interesting.
For each product, they do full-on DIY advertisements and actually write some decent copy. The result is much more compelling than the typical, stale product shots on sellers’ coffee tables. I’ve gone ahead and shared some of the ads below. Check out I Hate You’s Taobao shop here. Bravo, well done. // XD
