pThese amazing images were made using an iPad, long-exposure photography and some clever programming. A HREF=”http://berglondon.com/blog/2010/09/14/magic-ipad-light-painting/” A collaboration between UK-based design consultancy Berg and Dentsu London/A yielded a brilliant way to “extrude” light into visual forms:/p

blockquoteFirst we create software models of three-dimensional typography, objects and animations. We render cross sections of these models, like a virtual CAT scan, making a series of outlines of slices of each form. We play these back on the surface of the iPad as movies, and drag the iPad through the air to extrude shapes captured in long exposure photographs. Each 3D form is itself a single frame of a 3D animation, so each long exposure still is only a single image in a composite stop frame animation./blockquote

Near House by Mount Fuji Stdio

Japanese firm Mount Fuji Architects Studio have squeezed a narrow gate house between two existing Tokyo residences, leading to a main house on the L-shaped site behind.

Near House by Mount Fuji Stdio

The gate house (above) faces onto the road, separated from the main house at the back of the site (below) by a small courtyard.

Near House by Mount Fuji Stdio

Both parts of Narrow House are two-storey wood frame structures.

The gate house (above) has walls lined with bookshelves and a ladder connecting the two floors.

Near House has two buildings in a site.

Both buildings are very small, therefore we find a big potential.

It is not as large as the houses and not as small as the furniture.

Daily Sales Round-Up! – September 15

imageClean Lines & Blinged Out Accessories

It’s fun to get dressed to the nines and wear pretty, embellished dresses and other pieces, but it’s not always appropriate or practical. Many of us have a full schedule and it’s much easier throw on something that’s both cute and classic, but comfy and versatile. While this look of clean lines and simplistic design is always welcome, it can lean towards the boring side sometimes and that’s never a good look. A good way to spice up a bland outfit is with blinged out jewelry pieces and statement accessories. So Gilt Groupe and others have gathered together classic favorites and shiny baubles to help you get your look just right.

Yum Yum London

Questi adorabili toys sono stati pensati dagli inglesi di Yum Yum. Per ora restano solo un 3D ben realizzato e sono in cerca di un produttore…ma non credo che faranno troppa fatica a trovarne uno! All’interno del post vi ho messo anche la serie 2.
