Where it all comes from

This where I've gotten all my information today. I love this book, I enjoyed
looking at it. "Inside Design Now" by Ellen Pupton, Donald Albecht,
Susan Yelavich and Michell Owens has opened my eyes to yet even
more scintillating design.... I only hope to find more!

Artificial Heart


Here we have an artificial heart. Innovative of a design as anything
this a great break through and a sign of good things to come. Aided
by Fitch design this new technology would cost $70,000 but would
eliminate the constant $10,000 that patients would have to spend
each year on anti rejection drugs. Technology can be a good thing; and
I believe this to be very interesting. Just remember technology is great
but we cannot allow it to take over our life.

Co-Lab

Another cool eco friendly design company. I really liked this concept for
shingles; which uses old rubber tires.

DeMeter

Yeah I wish I had this scent along with Reeses and Neccos. Just check them
out at demeterfragrance.com. I can only imagine what it would be like to
smell like candy for a day!! Heavenly!

Fuseproject



I didn't like too much by this company but I enjoyed these Y water concepts.
I really like how the bottles can be used as a toy. These waters are
pretty rare but will start popping up soon, I know it. They mostly exist in the West in places
like California and Arizona.

Lutz and Patmos


Clothing line from Tina Lutz and Marcia Patmos. What else can I say but it
is just hot!

Hella works with Maharam fabrics

Designer Hella Jongerius collaborated with Maharam design
to make these beautiful fabric designs. I would suggest you
research both Hella (jongeriuslab.com) and Maharam (maharam.com)
