How to fall in love even more with those awesome products you covet? Bring them home…via Augmented Reality. This weekend I wanted to try a couple of apps developed using to Metaio’s Unifeye Mobile SDK. (more…)
La Lagunilla open air market in Mexico City is a great place to find unexpected vintage objects…amongst a myriad of other things. Loved shopping with a nice cold beer in hand =) It gives a different feel to the shopping experience that’s for sure. (more…)
I forgot how much I enjoyed and admired Bruno Munari’s work ;) I wonder what would happen if his amazing children’s books got “translated” into an app for the ipad? Maybe the app comes with his awesome Pre-libri. It definitely should be reactive and intuitive…something like the amazing 555 kubik facade projection below, and also gesture based, like Munari himself no? Now I wonder if anyone would let their toddler play with a gadget like that… Perhaps with a super hardcore baby-proof skin/shell? :P
It’s another rainy day in Toronto, so I’ve been searching for the perfect umbrella. My favorites were via Likecool.com. At top of my list is the Cloud Umbrella by Joonsoo Kim – a mini cumulus that can be inflated into a big cumulus to ward off the rain.
Though, more true to my sentiments today is the Fuck the Rain umbrella by Anton Shnaider..
Hey, nice postcard ;), I’m starting to appreciate stationery a bit more, it’s quite an art form isn’t it? I should get myself a couple of cards, the guys who printed our laundry bags for ICFF have very cute handmade stuff, would love to visit their cute store in Kensington Market but I guess I have to try and find something cool here :P
And coming back to the post title and image ;) “The recovery room” is something silly I’ve been thinking about, now even more that I’m feeling a bit crappy. I think it could be interesting to play with the concept of a “recovery” room or recovery kit to put a place into actual physical healing “mode” combining things like mood lights,acoustic panels, air purifier,humidifier,aroma therapy?, sunlight/no light, subtle sound/projections, a plant wall or nice pots and a hammock or 2 :). I wonder what children’s hospitals are doing right now, hmmm dunno what do you think?
