Every design starts on a piece of paper and often those ideas get visualised by a paper model. The look an feel of those paper model was the basic idea behind The Cut Series, a collaboration between Daniel Enoksson, Lucas E Hinnerud and Jens Boldt. They’ve designed tables, a shelf and a sideboard which look like paper models but are made of aluminum.
If you have an apple computer and a webcam, then you’ve probably played around with Photo Booth. It’s so much fun! Mark Pernice made a picture of himself with Photo Booth and turned it into a mask. The result is awesome. He actually made the mask to make a new picture with Photo Booth while wearing it. He’ll used that picture for a self promotional poster.
This apartment building designed by Mitsutomo Matsunami looks stunning! The fact that the houses next doors only have 2 floors, makes this 7 story high building even more majestic. It’s build on a 110.55m² piece of land and has a total floor of 341.38m². There are 10 apartments in the building, measuring between 23.2m² and 35.7m², which is tiny compared to European ones.
Alphablast is a series of decorated drinking glasses designed by Marco Dessí. He used orange nets as a template to sandblast their pattern onto fine Lobmeyr mouthblown glass. A very simple idea with a nice outcome. Each glass is unique.
Cake is the best fashion video I have ever seen. This 20 minutes long video shows you a girl eating a whole cake while wearing AF Vandervorst. That cake sure looks delicious. Made by Fly16x9.
Here’re a few stills from the video.
And here is an other video called Cakes. It’s the same idea, but a compilation of 6 girls each eating a cake.
A few months ago, rAndom International was commisioned to develop a site specific light installation for the lounge at London’s membership club Home House.
The installation is a sound-reactive media installation that plays with the light emitted by spatially arranged light sources. Where a commonly flat arrangement of LEDs would be conceived as a display with a resolution too low to establish image, text or pattern, Amplitude is actually home to a large number of individually controlled light sources on a y-axis. The introduction of a third dimension to the traditional concept of a display turns the piece into a vivid part of the space and emphasises the fact that the piece is a light installation rather than a display; the algorithm controlling the emittance of light creates a living organism that can be detected in the shadows that the installation casts on itself.
