Blow Away vase by Front

April 22nd, 2009

The girls of Front digitised a Royal Delft vase and added some parameters to the material in the 3D software. It was then exposed to a simulated gust of wind. This is really a typical Front project.
The Blow Away vase is available from Moooi.

Houdini by Stefan Diez

April 22nd, 2009

Stefan Diez will present his new chair family called Houdini in Milan this week. They come in a side chair and a chair wirth armrest version. The chairs are made of 4mm thin oak-veneered plywood, which is glued to a milled solid wood ring. Personaly I like the side chair the most, it has simple shape with some distinct lines.
They will be avaible from e15 in natural oak, black, white and grey lacquer finishes as well as custom colours.

It took Rhett Dashwood several months to find the complete alphabet in Google Maps. You can find links to every single letter on his website. Very impressive!

Diesel Home Collection

April 22nd, 2009

Diesel is the next fashion brand to launch its own furniture line, it definitely fits its claim “Sucessful Living”. They teamed up with 3 brands : Moroso for the furniture, Foscarini for the lightning and Zucchi for the home textiles. You can see some items from the collection in this Wallpaper gallery.
My favorite is this lamp called Rock.

Water Clock

April 21st, 2009

To be able to read the Water Clock by Kyouei Design, you’ll have to let the white and red ball float in water. Inside the ceramic base are 2 magnets who rotate, those attract the 2 balls. The red one shows the hours, the white one the minutes.
