The study I Have Pop Amsterdam has created this interesting project of Street furniture. 

—

—

The idea is to create design objects (with high prevalence for chairs) with material from the road, metal nets, signs, pallets, walls and all that you can make an interesting piece of design. 

—

—

The project is on the border between the urban art and design semi-industrial and even if not new (the basic principle is the same bags Freitag ), the study of Amsterdam, however, has found a way to re-invent objects without losing the quality and design.

retail | digital library - YTA: "your room into the city."

dezeen says

—

—Digital Library by YTA

—

Brazilian architects YTA have converted the spare room of a house into a multimedia library where pine floorboards and industrial lighting climb the walls.

—

Digital Library by YTA

—

Some of the pine boards also fold forwards from the concrete block walls to create shelves for storing books.

—

Digital Library by YTA

—

On the far wall, boards fold up from the floor to create a stand for a television, revealing a base of stark concrete below.

—

Digital Library by YTA

—

A desk is positioned along the back wall of the room, while other furniture and miscellaneous items are scattered around elsewhere and electrical sockets are integrated within the lighting grids.

Here’s some more information from YTA:

Digital Library – Retro-nology

At YTÅ, we believe in the essence of materials, in rationalizing resources and in optimizing elements when creating our projects and environments.

—

Digital Library by YTA

—

This library materialized these three concepts and created a space where high-tech contrasts with raw matter, returns to its origins, creating dialogue and balance.

—

Digital Library by YTA

—

The space is made up of juxtaposed layers:

the concrete base, the wooden shell, the metal wrapping.

All these elements are exposed, made evident and work together.

—

Digital Library by YTA

—

As the main character, certified pine wood boards run, fold and unfold themselves throughout the room, wrapping the books in their own original media, closing the cycle.

—

Digital Library by YTA

—

Technology here is in favour of the user, allowing him to control his whole environment (audio, video, lighting, temperature, safety) through a tablet, as well as connecting him to the world through online navigation. Making a statement, vintage elements maintain the memory of the analogic and books and magazines are available at arm’s reach, for they are, as we believe, irreplaceable.

This project was built in a family home, located in Ribeirao Preto – state of São Paulo, in Brazil.

pckgng | fisherman:" for fish and for man."

the dieline says

“Rubber boots are treated as purely utilitarian footwear by Kazakh anglers, so the attention is mostly focused on functional characteristics of the product.

Very often consumers are not looking for stylish or beautiful Wellington boots and, therefore, often have a difficulty in selecting among the product produced by different manufacturers.

The client asked agency to create a package for rubber boots that would highlight the advantages of this utilitarian footwear.

The package should stand out on a shelf, attract attention and encourage consumers to purchase “Fisherman”.

—

01 12 11 fisherman4

—

SolutionRubber boots are underestimated product in many respects.

Everybody is aware of their primary function - protection from water.

However, there are many advantages that are not obvious at the first glance and consumer doesn’t even think about.

Standard fishermen boots are able to protect the wearer from a lot of dangers:- Environmental debris (glass, wire, etc.)- Natural hazards (sharp rocks, driftwood)- Biological threats (dangerous and predatory creatures) - Chemical hazards (oil, gasoline, acids)- Electrical hazards

—

01 12 11 fisherman5

—

After analyzing how all these threats can be visually represented we realized that probably the best way to communicate protective functions of the boots was through….  images of fish! It is a very exciting topic that is very familiar to anglers and an excellent opportunity to combine several types of risks in one image.

For example an electric eel symbolizes biological and electrical hazards.

—

01 12 11 fisherman601 12 11 fisherman2

—

The package itself is designed as a mini-stand, which creates an illusion of boots immersed in water.

This way the consumer can see all of the protective properties of the boots. The upper part of the package shows that often you cannot see what is really happening under water because of the glare and ripples.

The message we want to convey to a consumer – though there are a lot of hidden underwater hazards you are safe with “Fisherman” rubber boots.”

Design  GOOD! Agency

One of the reasons I love Pinterest is coming across stand-out packaging like these John & John Potato Crisps. Lining them all up together creates such a bold graphic statement.

The one thing that stands out is #6.

I’m not sure why they chose to use color on the vegetable illustration while all of the other’s stuck the black lineart.

_____

I cannot find a designer or design studio for them, but they are distributed by Market Grounds, a company that develops and produces food and beverage products, so perhaps they designed them in-house.

Here’s a bit more text about the concept from Caterina Tiazzoldi:

Illy Shop: Is a temporary shop for Illy Caffe’, located in Milano in Galleria San Carlo nearby the Duomo.

The concept for a reconfigurable store, characterized by different modulations of a single element, a “cube” which is 45x45cm-squared base.

______

Illy Shop by Caterina Tiazzoldi

______

Using a grasshopper definition it has been parametric device, it has been possible to manipulate the cube physical properties by editing depth, thickness, opacity, length and explosions.

The combinatory logic – inspired by genetic algorithms process – permits to perform over 3000 configurationsof the same object.

_______

Illy Shop by Caterina Tiazzoldi

______

The shop is created by 200 cubes and specifically designed to adapt to different sizes of Illy Café products.

Small variation of the same modules permitted to derive the tasting tables, desk counter, storage, lighting system, video frames, communication space, and recycling bins.

_______

Illy Shop by Caterina Tiazzoldi

______

By adapting the different modules according to the performances required, (accessibility of the products from the outside, number of item to display, level of transparency desired, product size) it becomes feasible to represent different characteristics of the Illy products, while the solution also allows fitting it into different locations.

______

______

The system engender from the walls and the ceiling, creating a disoriented expansion.

The differentiated space dimensions appears to become one, transforming it into a game where user’s sight shifts from an object to another discovering the inside.

Here are some more details from xm3:

Restaurant: “zmianatematu.”, Piotrkowska 144, Łódź

The city of Łódź located in the centre of Poland is one of three biggest cities in the country. Before the II World War a highly prospering city with lots of industries, now is troubled with poverty and social problems. Although it has high aspirations to be a cultural oriented city of artist and students. Aiming to be a design, fashion and film capital of the country, it acquires the concern from many great architects and artists who are willing to create concept designs for a delayed rebirth of the city i.e.: Daniel Libeskind, Frank Ghery, David Lynch to name a few.

______

Zmianatematu by xm3

______

The restaurant is located in the very centre of Łódź – on the most important street in the city – Piotrkowska. The street – once a symbol of wealth of the one of the richest cities in this region of Europe is now an axis of mostly poor and degenerated district with monumental architecture from before the II World War.

______

Zmianatematu by xm3

______

With a very small budget we created an outstanding space to host the artistic and culture parties for the creative youth of the city. The owners of the restaurant want to propose a space for happenings, art-exhibitions, and various art-oriented venues.

______

Zmianatematu by xm3

______

As young architects from the Capital City Warsaw with the local Łódź art-oriented youth investors we tried to aim at city’s condition and aspirations and create a reminiscent of the cutting-edge environment which has a connection with the city identity. The city’s name translates literally as “a Boat”. Inspired by a Boston BanQ restaurant we tried to create a blobish form similar to the boat roof form which eats in the old monument-building’s space.

______

Zmianatematu by xm3

______

The building itself dates to the end of XIX century. The elevation is a typical Neo-classical style. During the years the ground floor has changed function several times. Now being empty and unfinished the inside offered us the space to take and adjust. We decided to leave it as raw as it was possible. The proposal was to make the floor from the epoxy mass, leave the walls in raw roughcast and take the electrical installation out and leave it on the walls covered in steel, black tubes.

______

Zmianatematu by xm3

______

The only element added is this alien form, a “hub” that creeps to the volume from the inside of the building, which then creates the bar and divides the space in to several functional areas.

______Zmianatematu by xm3

______

We can also see another division. This what is new and touches with the recently renovated external elevation of the building (the outside classical world) is new and white. The internal: dividing and construction walls as well as ceiling are in raw roughcast.

______

Zmianatematu by xm3

______

The “hub” itself is cnc cut plywood. It is designed by sectioning the form, generated by adjusting to the space and to all installations hidden by it. The sectioning and preparing for fabrication was done in Rhino/Grasshopper software. During the prototyping phase we decided to do some additional furniture for the restaurant as the mock-up for the real structure.

______

Zmianatematu by xm3

______

The furniture designed for the interior are the coffee tables, made of sectioned grid plywood and the bench which morphs from the bar counter.
