Jeff Han Skill

Friday, January 19th, 2007

Jeff Han presents the produce of his multi-touch interaction research here. The presentation is nearly a year old, full of great stuff, stuff that perhaps contributed to the iPhone interface?

Corian ribbons in Rome

Friday, December 1st, 2006

I really like Fabio Novembre’s new corian ribbon fuelled design concept for the interiors of American shoe brand ‘Stuart Weitzman’ Flagship stores. I remember Cheets telling me all about Corian once, as he used it to produce his toaster, although I can’t really remember anything he said to be honest!

More pictures here of the shop interior here.

Designer Products

Monday, October 9th, 2006

theres something very nice about the transition of seemingly mundane throway object to highly desirable designer product by Maxim Velcovsky.

Sommelier by Maxim Velcovsky : Dorian Gray Agency Qubus

This concept applied to fecal matter by Tobias Wong,
though I dont know about the highly desirable end aspect.

Sparkling Shit
Pure silver passes straight through the body
and ends up in your stool - resulting in sparkly shit !
