Oskar Zieta metallic inflatable furniture.




-a while ago i filmed the incredible process of Oskar Zieta ( at the milan furniture fair 2007), basically he's inflating metallic structure, creating this unique flavor of soft looking but extremely hard and cold to touch..
A nice interview at architonic can be found through the link more infos...

"... Interrelationships between geometry, material, material thickness, welding and deformation technology (in other words 'inflation'). The objects can be inflated with water, oil or air, and in theory each fold can be precisely analysed and controlled..."Architonic

Carga bag collection






-made of industrial wool felt or vegetable dyed leather , those bags seems to be like a second skin .from designer mauro bianucci :
"... to introduce you to Carga,line of bags that I designed and started producing almost two years ago, frustrated with not finding a bag that was both utilitarian and appealing. With a background in Architecture, I started 'assembling' bags (rather than sewing them) using construction techniques in a different way. "

void watches:v.01





-About the V.01 watch by VOID Watches

First out from VOID Watches is the V.01 with it’s delicately proportioned half glass, half stainless steel front that could represent the duality of life; like the yin and yang, the past and future, love and hate, right or wrong. There is always an intriguing force within these contrasts and since the decisions you make are often related to time, the V.01 serves as a reminder, that even if the world is not black and white, there will always be choices to make.

custom bicycles of Portland





-On a little trip to Portland this week end , i found this super nice shop called custom bicycles of Portland , at first; the carbon fiber frame bike behind the front window was serious eye candy, then i push the door and i discover another level of bicycle,only from the Guru brand, apparently you can built your own bike starting from a custom fit frame (insane equipment) then you'll find all sorts of incredibly technical pieces made out of carbon fiber or super technical new lightweight material.. anyway, you have to see the shop,the staff (Peter) is super friendly and they will teach you couple things even if you are not interested in dropping this minimum 3000$ for the basic set , but man if you like bike, go check them out..

-I don't want this blog to be ONLY about bike, but i love bike..so here is one i found through Flickr.. on alistairh flickr collection can you make simpler please ??
some kind of simplicity hardly found in todays bike.. structurally , i'm not sure , but it seems pretty strong . ?? anybody got more news about this one ?
about the designer:
Jean Prouvé (8 April 1901 - 23 March 1984) was a French architect and designer. His main achievement was transferring the manufacturing technology from industry to the architecture, without losing the aesthetic qualities. (wiki)
nice.
