"I'm really happy that people are responding to it. [But] I've been doing this all along. It's funny to see that people are really eating it up and loving it and encouraging me to do more."
I designed this bag in the same way I designed everything else, so largely based on right angles, but perhaps a little more emotionally, more personally. Designing a handbag is undoubtedly different to designing a Braun stereo system, but I applied the same principles. It had to be functional, visually durable, and very aesthetic. Less, but better.
"It has been estimated that one million five hundred thousand houses each year for a period of 10 years will be needed to relieve the urgent housing problem of this country. The enormity of such a need cannot even be partially satisfied by building techniques as we have known and used them in the past."
In the digital world that we're in, you know, negative videos are what goes viral. People are always knocking people down a peg and it's really easy to fall into that. If something bad happens-which, when you own your business, something bad happens every day- it's easy to circle in despair. But my challenge is to look for the positive and figure out how to pivot, and if something isn't working then figure out a different way to get it done.
Like the chambered nautilus, its shell was a logarithmic spiral. A wall of rough sandstone and aquamarine glass cullet twisted up fifty feet to an oil-drill-stem mast from which a floating roof was hung by the stainless-steel struts of World War II biplanes. You slid in with the humid air from the ravine outside to stroll a terraced garden of pools and plants, over which suspended and carpeted pods for living and sleeping drifted like clouds.
Originally conceived by designer Niels Diffrient over twenty years ago, the Diffrient Lounge is not just for relaxation, it also happens to be a great spot to work in. Ok, so you might not think of a lounge chair as something you would use in your work from home setup, but with its integrated work surface and ergonomic design, you won't want to work anywhere else.
The seating style has become a fundamental of casual dine-in kitchens, but deciding between a high-back style versus a neatly tucked away backless one is just the beginning of your sourcing considerations. Lumbar support for those of us with a weak core can certainly dial up the comfort level, while footrests and contoured or cushioned seats are other nice-to-haves as well.

The art-chitecture system proposes a different framework, treating furniture as a structural and spatial language capable of interacting directly with architecture. In this system, chairs and lighting fixtures function as modular units that maintain their individual identities while contributing to larger configurations.
There's few things that get us going quite like the words "Herman Miller sale" do.

Furniture made from mycelium or algae can decompose in five years, sure, but a well-made antique armoire outlives empires because no one throws it away. Columns takes that logic seriously. Handcrafted in solid oak, natural leather, and horsehair, the pieces are built to last a thousand years, which sounds like marketing hyperbole until you look at the joinery, the hand stitching, and the material choices. This is furniture designed to be inherited, repaired, and remembered.
No matter the style or scale, however, his sixth sense for the provision of creature comforts is evident throughout his work. "He just knew how to design a house for cultured living," notes Escher. It's telling that Williams opted for modernism in his own residence, yet the functionalist disposition of the rooms is balanced with richly personal details. "On one hand, it's still sort of a traditional layout in how the kitchen and back-of-house facilities are organized," says GuneWardena.

The design is based on an integrated approach in which visual identity, material behavior, manufacturing technology, construction, and production strategy are developed as a unified system. The project is informed by the technical constraints and possibilities of moulded plywood. Design development focused on pressing techniques, allowable bending radii, CNC machining tolerances, fastening systems, and surface finishing.
