Monsieur Design - Mozilla Firefox China Design Kyna Leski Blog « Sharona Design I’ve been playing with my camera these days and I’ve found selfportraits work really well as a therapy. You can see more on my flickr account, I’m still trying to “find” my style so you will see different things there :) He estado jugando con mi cámara estos días y he descubierto que es muy terapéutico el autorretrato. Pueden ver más en mi cuenta de flickr, aun estoy “buscando” mi estilo en fotografía así que encontrarán varias cosillas distintas :) Concepto y diseño corporativo por Caroline Grohs / Concept and corporate design by Caroline Grohs. Casi 3 años después… ¡estoy de vuelta en flickr! 1. En el ombligo de la semana, ya casi! It’s the hump of the week, almost there!
Yanko Design Top 10 of Green Design Never one to let a trend pass without jumping on the bandwagon ourselves, here is Yanko Design’s top 10 list of the most impactful green designs of recent memory. Given so many criteria available to judge the concepts, ordering the list was tough, but in the end we shot from the hip as well as flipped a lot of coins. Without further ado, hit the jump for your daily dose of feeling good about Mother Earth. 10) Com-bat: A solar powered, robotic spy plane, the 6″ wide Com-bat uses hair trigger sensors to navigate the battlefield and relay data back to base. 9) Lotus Eco-Elise: Drawing on friendly materials like “eco wool”, sisal and hemp, the new Elise stands apart from its hybrid brethren by also incorporating solar roof panels to power its electrical systems. 8 ) River Plant Aquarium: Like a self contained bio-dome (less the Pauly Shore), the aquarium uses fish and water to provide nutrients to the plants, while the plants oxygenate the water for the fish.
The Cornell Note Method The Cornell Note Method has been covered pretty extensively across the internet, but as your “one stop shop” for maximizing (hacking) your college experience, we’re obligated to cover it. Since adopting Cornell notes this semester, processing and reviewing my lecture notes has become a systematized and painless task. Developped in the 1950’s by Walter Pauk, author of How to Study in College, the Cornell Note Method splits an ordinary piece of paper into 3 sections; notes, main points and summary. As you listen to the lecture, all notes are written under the notes section (duh…). If any main points can be identified right away you may write them in the main points section on the left hand side of the page. When processing your notes, additional main points are added to the main points section and finally a summary of the material covered is added to the bottom of the page. Give the Cornell Method a shot in the next lecture you attend and post your thoughts in the comment section below.
TEST: fashion, photography, film, design and music. Sofia by Pelli Clarke Pelli Architects Sofia is a building designed by architect Cesar Pelli for One Development Group. Located in San Pedro, Mexico, this building not only was designed by an internationally renowned architect, it also has the most generous specifications in every aspect: from automated appliances, to Leed certifications. Our task was to communicate such sophistication and exclusiveness to their potential buyers. Therefore we created an identity that was the exact opposite of what we usually see for this kind of project. Sofia's identity is formed by three very important axes: Logotype: the keys and the coat of arms are inspired by San Pedro's coat of arms. Both the attention to detail and the brand's elements convey the greatness of Sofia's architectural project.
