A spectacular open plan residence named the AE House was constructed in Lomas de Chapultepec, Mexico City. Placed on a 8,611 square feet property, the modern house rises up three levels in order to offer its inhabitants all the necessary room to live a modern, comfortable life. The architects who worked on this project – twentyfourseven – describe the site’s challenges and solutions they came up with: “The proposal of the project changes this interaction by displacing a thick volume to the back of the site while a thin volume is pulled forward, creating by such an action a cross diagram that allows for patios to emerge with views, illumination and natural ventilation of the spaces. The intersection of both volumes creates a central void where the connection between the different...

A DesignPumpa hosszas szarakodás után ismét dolgozik: kicsit küzdöttünk az új adminnal, de megszerettük, kicsit küzdöttünk a nemzetközi gazdasági helyzettel, de már tökmindegy, végül is megöregedni sokféleképp lehet, de akkor már inkább online. A reanimált Pumpa egy kis újdonsággal is jelentkezik, DesignPumpa Speciál néven az összes tárgykörbe vágó eseményt, pályázatot, kiállítást, miegyebet egy helyre gyűjtünk. Akik eddig is küldték a programokat, ne adják fel, mindenki más pedig tolja és akkor ott lesz! (Ez a láb csak most kezd kinőni, kéretik nem fikázni erőből!) Végezetül a DesignPumpa bemutatja Terry Richardson német kiadását, bizonyos Marc Van Dalen hamburgi fotóst, aki...[...] Bővebben!

The Buell Center will be hosting a public forum entitled What Is Foreclosed?

Inspired by children’s constant experimenting – when they either learn how to do or how not to do things – the Time Out Timer Stool was designed to help parents add a twist to those five minute time-outs. Every time the child needs to be punished, the hourglass -shaped Time Out Timer Stool can come in handy – just ask the child to sit on the stool until all the sand has poured down. This Wisteria exclusive product is available in navy or white and can be purchased for $69.00. Although an excellent idea, the Time Out Timer Stool can be expected to be delivered by mid-summer. Although this stool is not a toy and should be used only under adult supervision, the Time Out Timer Stool is practically a decorative item with functional features. Made out of mango wood, the hourglass stool...

For all you know SpareOne may go onto become an iconic phone with its simple approach of being the ideal spare phone that works on a single AA battery. A shelf life of 15 years, simple demeanor and intuitive UI, makes it a coveted gadget to carry on hikes, travels and emergency situations.

Rodney explains, “ When we were approached to strategize this spare phone idea, we knew immediately that it has to be simple and “life-proof”. The archetype of a screen was logically used to showcase and glorify this simple but iconic long-lasting AA battery.”
