DIY Tables by Goncalo Campos

 
  

I love the genius of product design. The series of tables designed by Goncalo Campos, are made only using two basic materials, fabric and wood, the most commonly used materials in most households They are designed to be assembled with no glues or external fixtures, other than fabric, using a simple construction technique - they look primitive but at the same time very elegant. I can see the possibilities using beautiful woods, such as ebony, walnut, or perhaps fumed wood, and coordinating the fabric to match the colors and mood of your room. They would make wonderful conversation pieces for a wedding, or summer lawn party.

Graduated in product design in 2008, after which joined Fabrica team, for a year and created a series of  of tables which were featured in the exhibition Mais que Partes (More Than Parts), shown in the Fabrica features shop in Lisbon.

Furniture IS Lifestyle - DEDON LAUNCHES “COMING HOME”, A LIMITED-EDITION BOOK BY BRUCE WEBER

 
DEDON LAUNCHES “COMING HOME”, A LIMITED-EDITION BOOK BY BRUCE WEBER

I love the new lifestyle advertising campaign that the Dutch company Dedon, a manufacturer of outdoor furnishings, has launched.  You may have seen the ads for this Dedon campaign in some of the recent Design magazines - Dedon is selling their furniture as lifestyle.  DEDON takes its collaboration with legendary American fashion photographer Bruce Weber to a next level with the publication of a new book Coming Home, a sumptuously produced, limited edition book. Building on themes that Weber developed for the current DEDON advertising campaign, Coming Home is an exploration into the meaning of home and the feelings we hold for it. Personal, poetic and eclectic, the book weaves together exclusive imagery by Bruce Weber with artwork and illustrations specially commissioned by the photographer. Watch the Dedon movie in large format here, or on YouTube here.  The music and imagery are spectacular.  The movie starts with a quote from the movie Out of Africa - the words of Denys Finch Hatton, played by Robert Redford: “I don’t want to live someone else’s idea of how to live.”

DEDON “COMING HOME”, A LIMITED-EDITION BOOK BY BRUCE WEBER

When I first saw the Dedon ad campaign, by Bruce Webber I was mesmerized by it.  Some people I have talked to just don’t get it. 
After all Bruce Webber was the photographer for the controversial ad campaign for Calvin Klein in the 90’s, and
Webber also photographed a shirtless Chris Isaak in bed for a fashion spread in Rolling Stone. 
Dedon says about Coming Home “…….it is an exploration into the meaning of home and the feelings we hold for it.”
I say that ‘Furniture IS Lifestyle’ and has as much of a message to say about how we live as Fashion does!

What do you think about ‘Lifestyle Advertising?’  Leave your comment here.

What is Architecture Minimalist? Minimalist House Design

The roots of minimalism in architecture is often traced back to the mid to late 1950s. Movement is a reaction to the new style of architecture - and lifestyle - which is being cultivated in the United States. In the U.S. boom in the years after World War II, there is a movement towards a large and exaggerated style of the building. During this era, groomed suburbs and supermarkets all over the map of the cave appeared, and there was a tendency garnish it. Minimalism was developed as a response to a lifestyle that increasingly commercial and consumer are reflected in the design.

Despite the minimalist art (which is sometimes known as a literalist art) has its roots in America, minimalist architecture was born elsewhere. Northern Europe, especially Scandinavia, and Japan is very important in the history of minimalist design, and in fact, this place remains one of the biggest embracers minimalism.

In general, the idea of minimalism can be described as "less is more," or as some designers and architects are fond of saying, "do more with less" minimalist architects use space as a design feature in and of itself .. Rather than attempting to fill the space with features, they create designs where space is as carefully thought out and used as the things they add to the room. basic shapes and straight, clean lines that are also important techniques used in minimalist designs, such as playing with various types of illumination. The result is elegant but not fussy.

Another technique often used is to provide a feature that more than one use. One example might be the floor beneath the heating unit, either form the basis for the room and heating room. This allows the designer to create the optimal utility without crowding the space.

Some of the important architects working in the field of minimalist design includes:

• Lugdwig Mies van der Rohe
• Buckminster Fuller
• Dieter Rams
• Luis Barragan
• John Pawson
• Eduardo Souto de Mouro
• Alvar Siza
• Tadao Ando
• Alberto Campo Baeza
• Yoshi Tanigushi
• Peter Zumthor
• Richard Gluckman
• Michael Gabellini
• Claudio Silverstrin
• Vincent Van Duysen

Whats Hot? Fuego Outdoor Living Grill

I am in the process of designing an outdoor patio for clients. It is a challenging project as well as being very exacting, with a lot of technical details to take into consideration (gas lines, water lines, electrical panel load limits, permit approvals, etc), before I can even start on the ‘pretty stuff.’ This outdoor patio is on the roof of a penthouse, with a spectacular view of the ocean, mountains, and city of Vancouver. It is a breathtaking 130 feet in length, and is probably larger than most people’s back yards. 

Every once in awhile I come across a new and innovatively designed product that causes me to stop and take notice, and with a sigh of relief, that I have found an esthetically pleasing alternative to a category of product design that generally leaves my visual sensibilities assaulted. Finally an outdoor grill (notice that it is not referred to as a BBQ - ‘Grill’ is the operative new terminology), that shakes up tradition, and is beautiful to look at. “A campfire for modernists,” “a social magnet with a great sense of style.” Attaching a label to this Fuego outdoor living grill is trickier than throwing a salmon – wild, rubbed with herbs and spices – on an open flame. As well as Fuego being a top rated grill, it has a modernist design aesthetic with sleek-lined minimalism. One that I wouldn’t mind gracing my clients’ patio.
