Malene Landgreen Color Slate Walls

Colors are Malene Landgreen’s vocabulary, and when it comes to color blocking we totally understand what she means! Landgreen has moved far beyond the conventional frames of painting in Denmark with the wall exhibition in Kunsthal Charlottenborg. It’s through her relations to volume and colors that she ‘speaks out’.

Platonic solids in the modern era


platonic solids bg Platonic solids in the modern era

There are exactly five plantonic solids; Tetrahedron, Cube, Octahedron, Dodecahedron, Icosahedron.  While they might sound fancy they are actually the most basic building blocks that can be reduced to.  They are named for the ancient Greek philosopher Plato who theorized that the classical elements were constructed from the regular solids.  Algorithmic scripting is allowing designers to create new forms for the 21st era using Plato’s solids.

La Maison du Pastel

Despite the growing trend in in fashion today to identify with the artisan,  authentic artisanship is far and few within our contemporary consumer culture. La Maison du Pastel is one of these rare gems of history whose workmanship dates back to the 18th century. Since the acquisition by Henri Roche 1878, the house has specialized solely in the hand-making of pastels, at which time there were only 100 tints. By 1887 the range expands to 500 colors and from then on, “La Maison du Pastel” sees a continuous growth in palette, and Roché pastels become renown worldwide for their specific qualities.

Kokkugia : Architecture + Urbanism


COMPLEX MORPHOLOGIES by Megan Magraw, Nathaniel Rather, David Saunders

kokkugia complex metamorphosis 600x347 Kokkugia : Architecture + Urbanism

London and New York based international design practice Kokkugia operates through design, research, experimentation and teaching to develop generative design methodologies from the complex self-organising behavior of social, biological and material systems. I have selected some of their research and teaching imagery which I found highly inspirational in the purest form of abstraction. The images shown here are only a few examples of parametric modeling, rapid prototyping, and other numerically controlled manufacturing techniques using algorithmic design and computational geometry.
