Nem Iphone holder




Dean (fra Dean and Ying’s blog) har fundet en genial og simpel måde at lave en stander til sin iPhone. Han ville have noget at stille den på når han skulle se film, men indledende pap-strukturer mislykkedes.

VIENNA DESIGN WEEK 2008 Opening

 

On Thursday evening, the opening of the 2nd edition of the VIENNA DESIGN WEEK attracted over 1,000 invited guests to party far into the night with music and drinks in the hall of Liechtenstein Palace.

PureAustrianDesign IN THE CITY - A huge bubble full of design.

 
On Friday, 3 October 2008, the installation PureAustrianDesign IN THE CITY was unveiled in the main court of the MuseumsQuartier Vienna. For three days an oversized bubble serves the austrian furniture industry as a showroom to the Viennese public.

Maxim Velcovsky's Luminiscent Mirage.

 

This year's first design trail Passionswege led to Lobmeyr's business premises in Vienna's 1st district, which house an installation with glass objects from the company's own archive selected, arranged and composed by Czech designer Maxim Velčovský (Qubus design) from Prague.

Wine and Design.

 

On Saturday afternoon the bulthaup studio, showroom of the renowned kitchen producer next to Vienna's Opera, was cram-full, a fact that could not really be put down to the damp and windy autumn weather, but to the presentation of a new Lobmeyr drinking set designed by Polka.

Algae Power Meets High-end Fashion.

 
A big design installation of another kind was to be seen at the high-end fashion store Song during the second day of VIENNA DESIGN WEEK's design trail PASSIONSWEGE: An algae power station designed by Vienna-based designers EOOS. This 10 meters long installation of glass tubes filled with algae supplies the store's energy.

When Handcraft Becomes Art.

 
On the third and last day of the festival's design trail PASSIONSWEGE the Wittmann showroom next to Wiener Secession presented a divan bed developed by German designer Susanne Philippson which extends the definition of a "Real Wittmann".

Freitag Shop - diagram of key features

I recently attended a "Retail 2025" thinktank at GDI in Ruschlikon, Zurich. Some of my colleagues couldn't make it to the Freitag shop, so I created this image in Photoshop to show them some of the key elements of this unique shop.

City Lounge by Carlos Martinez

City Lounge is an outdoor space in the center of St. Gallen, Switzerland, that has been designed by Carlos Martinez in collaboration with Pipilotti Rist, as a result of a design competition to create a public living room.

A red carpet flows all around the buildings, recreating places to relax, places to converse, places to park, fountains, even fake cars you can climb on.

It’s an amazing project that brings life to the city.
