http://weburbanist.com/2009/04/16/20-outstanding-outrageous-concept-cars-from-the-golden-age/ A map of the history of the auto industry would show dozens, if not hundreds of roads not traveled. What if some of these visionary concepts had been allowed to hit the street? These outstanding, outlandish and outrageous concept cars show what direction automotive design might have taken if automakers had followed their dreams instead of listening to the bean counters. (images via: Old Car and Truck Pictures and CARstyling ) The domestic auto industry had a tremendous run over the past century and thought things look grim today, there’s always hope for tomorrow. Can Detroit’s Big Three pull one more rabbit out of their tattered hat?

Muvbox - TOUT EST DANS LA BOÎTE

Une boîte qui bouge Incroyable mais vrai : en moins d’une minute, la boîte se déploie et se transforme en resto, en boutique, en espace d’exposition, etc. On l’appelle MUVBOX car il se déplace. Puisqu’il n’est pas fixé dans le sol de façon permanente, nul besoin de permis de construction. Il s’installe en un rien de temps, partout! http://www.muvboxconcept.com/

Combo Couch: All-in-One Lounger, Love Seat + Sofa Bed = « Dornob

Sofa beds sneak two functions into one piece of furniture, but these designs go beyond the binary ‘convertible couch’ typology to be completely modular, comfortable for sitting up, laying back or lying down in any number of custom configurations. This seating set from Zuiver builds on the classic fold-out footrest and flip-up backrest concepts of an easy chair, but take such loungers to new levels by expanding the entire idea horizontally into a multi-person love seat, then stretch it further to a full-length sleep-friendly sofa. Each modular segment can be flipped in, out, up or down as desired by the people using each part of the seating space – a pair of chairs can be formed within the larger whole of the couch, or the entire system can open and accommodate a couple comfortably. Smaller versions are also interesting craft experiments, but the purpose seems less clear in a simple lounge chair variant.

Hot or Cool? Color-Changing Chameleon Tiles « Dornob

There is virtually no limit to what you can decorate with color-changing tiles (from Inventables ). Daytime cityscapes turn into urban night scenes as the temperature in a room shifts. Notable applications include showers, floors and others surfaces likely to be exposed to temperature variations over time. While some of these are simply colored and relatively inexpensive there are all kinds of untapped design potentials yet to be explored. Perhaps they would make a good interior design match for an exterior application of some light transmitting concrete . http://dornob.com/hot-or-cool-color-changing-chameleon-tiles/

Paper models , also called card models or papercraft , are models constructed mainly from sheets of heavy paper , paperboard , or card stock . [ edit ] Details This may be considered a broad category that contains origami and card modeling. Origami is the process of making a paper model by folding paper without using glue. Card modeling is making scale models from sheets of cardstock on which the parts were printed, usually in full color. These pieces would be cut out, folded, scored and glued together.

We have a beautiful exhibit hanging in Gallery 543 at the Navy Yard right now that consists of flags by artist Emily Manalo Ruiz . The main portion of the exhibit is the “1000 Works Project”, which consists of 1000 small fabric flags, each of which are unique, sewn out of salvaged materials and inspired by old battle flags. The exhibit also includes some of her larger flags, also made with reclaimed materials, that are text-based and printed with meaningful, personal phrases. “Art, for me, is cathartic. It serves as an outlet for releasing deep-seated pains, capturing fleeting memories, and for understanding and documenting my life experience. http://blog.freepeople.com/category/design/
