Ron Arad « Artist « Timothy Taylor Gallery

Among the most respected and influential designers working today, Ron Arad is celebrated for his fluid, curvaceous style, crafting deceptively simple, highly skilled pieces from materials such as aluminium, bronze and steel. Defying easy categorisation, Arad’s work consistently reinvents the everyday object, transforming it into something daring, witty and provocative. http://www.timothytaylorgallery.com/artists/work/ron-arad/oh-the-farmer-the-cowman-should-be-friends/

¿Qué es un porcelanato vitrificado? Es un material cerámico pulido, no lleva recubrimientos de esmalte, lo que permite que el diseño siempre esté presente en la superficie. Además de ser rectificado y calibrado., Durante su fabricación se emplean las más sofisticadas técnicas para pulir la superficie del porcelanato antes de ser horneada a altas temperaturas. http://arqblogspazio.blogspot.com/
http://www.simondale.net/house/index.htm You are looking at pictures of a house I built for our family in Wales. It was built by myself and my father in law with help from passers by and visiting friends. 4 months after starting we were moved in and cosy. I estimate 1000-1500 man hours and £3000 put in to this point. Not really so much in house buying terms (roughly £60/sq m excluding labour). The house was built with maximum regard for the environment and by reciprocation gives us a unique opportunity to live close to nature. Being your own (have a go) architect is a lot of fun and allows you to create and enjoy something which is part of yourself and the land rather than, at worst, a mass produced box designed for maximum profit and convenience of the construction industry.

NESTREST - Architecture Linked - Architect & Architectural Social Network

http://architecturelinked.com/profiles/blogs/nestrest-1?xg_source=activity Daniel Pouzet and Fred Frety. It's described as an over-sized bird's nest that's perfect for relaxation, meditation and open-air conversations. And if you love the design, but dangling in the air isn't your thing, NESTREST is also available as a standing lounger. It's made of 4 cm wide strips of a unique material called DEDON Fiber , the world's first synthetic resin fiber material. DEDON Fiber is said to be weatherproof and environmentally friendly, as well as durable and beautiful. Interestingly, the material was designed by Bobby Dekeyser , a German top-tier goalkeeper who decided to leave his sport, producing this with his new-found time.

NES Controller Coffee Table – I Want One

I've seen plenty of coffee tables dolled up like a retro gaming controller. Apparently, many young people who never played with them old consoles find them cool. But we doubt any of those tables we've seen before can match up to this NES Controller Coffee Table, which you can actually use to play your favorite 8-bit games of yesteryear.

Designer Angela Jansen of Design Academy Eindhoven recently collaborated with engineer Ger Jansen on a pair of skeuomorphic LED lamps that they're currently selling as Light Light. Their website knowingly notes that "It is uncommon for engineers to find good domestic applications for their technology... and it is likewise rare for designers of consumer objects to embrace cutting-edge technology wholeheartedly." Which, of course, is "perhaps what makes the cross-pollination of ideas between Angela Jansen and Ger Jansen so remarkable." The Light Light series creates an incredible visual conversation piece. http://www.core77.com/blog/lighting/light_lights_sublime_levitating_lamps_20694.asp

Everyone loves the idea of curling up with a book – but how about within a bookcase ? The Cave is a combination bookcase and lounge chair design that provides a comfortable, cozy and visually secluded place to wrap yourself in your favorite volume and read for a while with a soft overhead light. For children, the bookcase chair provides a nifty crawl space and it can even be a pet retreat. Placed against the wall it becomes a cozy nook and put in the center of a room it becomes a spatial divider with accessibility through its center. http://dornob.com/bookcase-chairs-combine-book-storage-reading-space/

I will never own a chandelier, a.) because I break things too easily, b.) because I have an uncontrollable compulsion to swing on things, and c.) I am poor. But, just because I'll never own one, doesn't mean I don't think they are cool.
