SVPPLY: High-Style Shopping, Curated by the Crowd
The new site works like Ffffound, the well-loved visual resource--except for products

There's a mass of design junk out there--and if you're a design junky, consider how much time you spend just sifting through it, looking for the perfect chair/shoes/alarm clock. And guess what? Thousands of people just like you are doing the same thing. But all that work's lost, because none of it's shared.
And that's where SVPPLY [2] comes in: The new site allows a select group of tastemakers to post online wishlists. To keep the quality up, you've got to be invited to join. But luckily, everyone can browse the goods.
Each piece has a link out, directing you to where you can buy the piece on hand; the catalogue is searchable by price, gender and genre--from home to tech.
As Josh Spear points out [3], SVPPLY works essentially the same as FFFFOUND [4], a visual resource that's drawn a huge following among designers, looking for inspiration.
Applying that to shopping? Pretty brilliant. Granted, it's still early days, and there aren't yet more than a handful of users. But give it a bit of time.
