Product Spotlight » Kiosk's Groundhog Collection - Dwell blog - 08-02-2010
by Sarah RichIt's been a couple of days since the groundhog saw his shadow, but at Kiosk, it's Groundhog Day for a little bit longer. The poster store of eclectic collections assembled a special (and international) one for this lowly holiday, each object referencing nature in some [often tongue-in-cheek] way.

Heinz ketchup packet finally gets a re-design - Core77 - 08-02-2010
You've all seen this sucker before:
The venerable Heinz ketchup packet above has been around since 1968. Forty-two years later, they finally got around to a re-design. The new packet holds three times as much ketchup--perfect for me, since I normally use three of the old packets for the average order of fries--and can be used in "squeeze and pour" or "dipping" mode:

Event Spotlight » SFMoMA 75th Anniversary Show - Dwell blog - 08-02-2010
by Miyoko OhtakeThough the iconic Mario Botta building that houses the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art has only graced the city's South of Market neighborhood since 1995, the museum itself has brought modern and contemporary art to the West Coast since 1935. To celebrate its 75th anniversary, the SFMoMA has filled its floors with 75 Years of Looking Forward, a fantastic exhibition comprising six shows that feature six views--backward- and forward-looking and more--of the museum's history and future. The shows are on display through May 23, 2010--and some ...

Better than the Rasterbator: convert raster images to vector graphics with ONull - Core77 - 08-02-2010
Kim Asendorf, an interactive artist from Kassel, Germany, has just released the first version of ONull, a new tool for vectorizing raster graphics.
The software, written in Java with a Processing core, works by changing pixelized color information into a halftone pattern, much like The Rasterbator. The difference is that ONull's halftone pattern is highly customizable, allowing you to choose from a wide variety of vector pixels—circles, square, triangles, X-shapes, etc—and adjust opacity, stroke, rotation, and amplification settings until you get the image you want. One can even import a custom...
Nafi and Anna: Two new interiors from Zmik - Core77 - 08-02-2010
Swiss designers Zmik have a knack for the highly detailed execution of simple concepts. This is demonstrated especially well in their two latest projects: Nafi and Anna.
Nafi, pictured top, is a new interior for an existing hair salon, dividing it into two zones that contrast in their function (waiting room vs. working area) as much as their atmosphere. The first section of the deep rectangular space is seamlessly papered with photocopies of Vogue magazines on brown packing paper, furnished opulently, and lit warmly, creating an intimate space for discussion and rest. This butts abruptly...
Steckbar: A stacking shelf by Ismail Özalbayrak - Core77 - 08-02-2010
We know, we know, another stacking, modular furniture set? Still, this one's pretty nice, nesting closely for storage and expanding into a brightly colored shelf, sideboard or room partition when offset. We suspect that one might also be able to flip a module over to create a recessed coffee table, though its hard to tell from the pictures.
Steckbar, which translates to "snap" in German, was designed by Ismail Özalbayrak, a student at the Hochschule für bildende Künste Hamburg. Our only regret is that the shelf is only a computer model. Get that thing...

This Just Inbox: Barbara Bona's waterfalls, teacups, stepladders and potato chips - Core77 - 08-02-2010
Switzerland-based designer Barbara Bona just sent us "Waterfall," an LED-lighting concept that intends to "transform night into day" by bouncing the focused light of the LEDs off the reflective, translucent fabric of the curtain and into the surrounding space. The project transforms the unfriendly light of LEDs into atmosphere and suggests that a room be lit from its window instead of point sources on the ceiling, wall or floor.
We spent some time poking around her site and found a few more blog-worthy projects. Though never groundbreaking, each...

Israeli CAD manufacturer Cimatron, which specializes in CAD for mold, tool and die makers, has developed a new tool which enables manufacturers to "simulate and analyze the injection molding process from within CimatronE," CimatronE being their CAD program.

Maximilian-Peter Von Speyer's Norland Cycles project - Core77 - 08-02-2010
Copious documentation accompanies ID student Maximilian-Peter Von Speyer's ID thesis project, his personal mission to "design and develop the best downhill frame ever made in Chile, by combining various rider's experiences with my own into sophisticated technologies software adopted from the aerospace industry." Called the Norland Cycles Project, Von Speyer draws upon both his love of bicycles and fascination with military airplanes in hopes of perfecting his design.
Luckily for Von Speyer, a Berlin-based German downhill bicycling club saw his work and has offered to build multiple prototypes for him for free, for simultaneous testing...
Nicolas Roope from POKE talks about "things vs ads" - Core77 - 08-02-2010
You might remember the BakerTweet from last year, this video just surfaced from Webby Night Berlin featuring Nicolas Roope cram a 10 minute presentation into 5 to explain how that project and a couple other examples define POKE's belief in creating "things" to communicate a brands message rather than traditional advertising. The lip-syncing is messed up but essential viewing for anyone looking for tips on successful story telling.(more...)
