Flowerium by Makoto Hirahara Posted: 13 Mar 2012 05:56 AM PDT Created by Makoto Hirahara with the help of openFrameworks on drawing of the plant, Flowerium is an apps designed for iPhone and iPad that grow of virtual plant, and collects favorite flowers. The seed is sown when you touch the screen, it falls on the ground and then, new bud comes out. The plant are filled with energy of the sun that fall down on it and grows up. Therefore, it withers when it is a shadow of other plants. The flower blooms when growing up as well. It is possible to preserve it by giving the name when it touches the liked flower. The preserved flower can be seen from Library, and the thing that seeds it can be done, too. It becomes a seed when there is a sufficient nutrition when the flower is in blossom. The seed has succeeded parents' genes. It hybridizes and it is inherited...both characters...when other plant flower is in blossom. The mutation might sometimes occur, and a change different from usual hybridization be done. The botanical image can be preserved in the camera roll, and tweeted. + Makoto Hirahara Friday, March 9, 2012 Design Year Book Design Year Book ORSTA Gallery by Claesson Koivisto Rune Posted: 08 Mar 2012 11:37 PM PST The trio has done it again. Sweden-based Claesson Koivisto Rune has designed this stunning art gallery- ORSTA Gallery in Kulma, Sweden. An art-piece itself, ORSTA Gallery is a gallery of modern art, sited atop an artificial hill, the building's base follow the hill's topology. The resulting series of curves, combined with mirroring roof-line curves, make the planer facades seem curved from top and bottom. Furthermore, the narrow facade openings, makes the 6.7 metres tall building difficult to judge from a distance. The interior is divided into four different sizes gallery, has both central cross access and complete side circulation. The white painted facades are coated with three tons of special reflective glass beads that work in a similar way as the reflective element in zebra crossing. If viewed from the same angle as the incident light source, the gallery glows as if lit from within. The artificial red light effect, 'Husfenomen', is a site specific art work by Mikael Pauli. Claesson Koivisto Rune started as an architectural office but soon became multi-disciplinally design practise. Some of their works are Belle Ring Holder for Skultuna, Snowflakes Tables and Parupu Children's Chair. + Claesson Koivisto Rune Wednesday, March 7, 2012 Design Year Book Design Year Book Field of Light by Bruce Munro Posted: 07 Mar 2012 08:29 AM PST Acclaimed lighting artist Bruce Munro is bringing his Field of Light to the Holburne Museum in Bath from 26 November 2011 to 8 January 2012. Field of Light at the Holburne Museum will consist of 5,220 of acrylic stems, each crowned with a frosted sphere and linked with fiber-optic cable- planted in the grounds of the Museum and flowing into the Garden Cafe. To be lit by a colour projector, the result is quite magical, as both colour and light flow through the bulbs to create a uniquely captivating experience. The Field of Light was inspired nearly twenty years ago while Munro traveling in Australia Red Desert. He became transfixed by the way in which the barren dessert would burst into bloom after rainfall. Field of Light too lies dormant during the hours of day light, but when darkness falls the bulbs flower with gentle rhythms of light and patterns of colour. The light installation at the time of Christmas season will let visitors & residents around Bath to enjoy the magical experience as a number of bulbs will cascade across the front lawn of the Museum. Bruce Munro says, "I'll be happy if it makes people smile at Christmas time."  + fieldoflight Tuesday, March 6, 2012 Design Year Book Design Year Book Rocking Lamp by Young & Battaglia Posted: 06 Mar 2012 07:10 PM PST We have seen the rocking chair, now presenting you the Rocking Lamp designed by Young & Battaglia.

Utilizing a honeycomb structure to fan open into stools, benches, and loungers, each softseating has magnetic end panels, allowing an element to connect to itself, forming a cylindrical stool or low table, or to connect to other elements of the same size in series, creating long winding benches and endless possibilities for seating topographies. The beauty of these pieces is that they are sculptural abstract forms, each made from a single material, that can be used creatively and interchangeably as seating or low tables. Based in Vancouver, Canada, Molo Studio is a collaborative design and production studio led by Stephanie Forsythe, Todd MacAllen and Robert Pasut.  + molo studio Tuesday, February 28, 2012 Urville-The Imaginative City Urville, a capital city with a population of nearly 12 million, making it one of Europe's most significant cities. It is also entirely imaginary. Gilles Tréhin, an autistic French with exceptional creative talents has been drawing since age 5, but at age 12 he began designing an imaginary city he named URVILLE, which is described in great detail from the remarkable architectural to the thoughtful cultural context rooted in real world history. Since then Tréhin has spent over 20 years to conceive and develop 'Urville', a name comes from "Dumont d'Urville", which is a scientific base, in a French territory of the Antarctic. He shares his vision in this beautifully illustrated guide to the city, which he renders convincingly real in nearly 300 drawings of different districts of Urville. All the drawings, come from the 5 main very large general views of the different sectors of the city. There is an example of a large view at the beginning of this text. Each of the smaller views show details of the streets, squares and various monuments of Urville. This book written by Tréhin, "Urville's Guided Tour," offers fascinating evidence of and insight into the creative power of the autistic mind and will be of interest to people with autism and without. What not to store in facility rancho cucamonga Who doesn't love the new TV shows about the storage unit auctions. I currently work for a large storage facility company with storage units in Rancho Cucamonga as well as in parts of Utah, Idaho, and Colorado and love hearing about cool stuff people find in storage facilities. However, though it may seem like a glamorous profession there are some units that you would just not want to be anywhere near. That is why I thought it would be funny to make a list about what not to store in your storage locker. 1. Food I hope I don't have to tell you that perishable food items such as fruit and leftover meat from your latest barbeque should not be stored in storage units. However, many people are using storage units to store their emergency food storage supplies. Keep in mind that in case of an emergency it may be harder to acquire your food storage if your car was destroyed during the disaster, or even worse the storage facility along with your food. Keep that stuff close to home. 2. Drug Paraphernalia More often than you may think there are drug sniffing dogs searching for hidden stashes of drugs in storage units. For some reason Drug lords love to use storage facilities as stash houses. Maybe it is for the convenience or the climate controlled feature that many storage facilities are offerings. Either way if there are drug sniffing dogs on the premises you don't want them actually sniffing you out. We recommend staying away from drugs all together, however, if you must then keep them away from anywhere the DEA commonly visits. 3. Your Past Let's face it, we have all done things that we shouldn't have done. Most likely there are records of these unproud moments in our lives in the forms of pictures or other related objects. Though it may have been cool then, or you may have been proud of a certain lewd act, there is no reason to keep evidence lying around. The last thing you want is your kids, wife, or even the police involved in investigating for any reason into your past. So please heed my advice and destroy all evidence! Now that you know what not to keep at your storage unit I encourage you to go get a trash bag and start to find new homes for your "stuff." Subscribe to: Posts (Atom) BlogUpp!
