bunny

Designed by ISKOS-BERLIN for NORMANN COPENHAGEN 2011

Can you remember your beloved teddy? That cuddly childhood toy who followed you everywhere, day or night? Who comforted you and kept you safe? Perhaps it was a bear, or a dog, or a rabbit…

Bunny is a wing chair that reinterprets the traditional design. Instead of the austere and stiff-backed companion in which our grandfathers used to retire to read the paper, Bunny is meant to be a loving friend – a great big cuddly toy, large enough to comfort an adult. Bunny is playful and funny, sybaritic and sensual, but with a twist – bound and shaped by the rope drawn taut across its soft “body”. more: http://iskos-berlin.dk/bunny/

basset

Designed by ISKOS-BERLIN for VERSUS 2011

”We wanted to design a compact but comfortable “family” of sofas that harked back to classic soft furniture styles – especially to the post WW2 period”

BASSET’s sculptural language is simple and clear. There are just two elements – a horizontal “pillow” for a seat and a vertical “duvet” at the back that wraps around the seat, embracing it from the sides.

Upholstery details – marked piping is used to accentuate its shape in a natural way, giving it an easily recognizable design “signature”. BASSET doesn’t demand much space and fits easily into smaller homes. more: http://iskos-berlin.dk/basset/

Year: 2010 / Material: Wood, wool and acrylic glass / Dimensions: 36 x 15 x 50 cm/ Category: Prototype

365 is stitching the time as it passes by. It is knitting 24 hours a day and one year at the time, showing the physical representation of time as a creative and tangible force. After 365 days the clock has turned the passed year into a 2-m long scarf. Now the past can be carried out in the future and the upcoming year is hiding in a new spool of thread, still unknitted. more: http://www.sirenelisewilhelmsen.com/work.html

YOU + ME (dynamo lamp)

Year: 2011/ Material: Oak and glass/ Dimensions: 15 x 15 x 235 cm/ Category: Prototype

You+Me is a teamwork between product and user; the user charges the lamp by pulling the cord and due to its dynamo technology it uses this energy to provide light – one minute of charging gives thirty minutes of light. You+Me is free from power points and can, as a candle, simply be brought around the house, to the balcony or the garden. It can take a various positions; like standing on the table, hang on a random hook, a branch or on the supplementary rack system. All in all it is an energy saving and mobile lamp that can be used in a broad palette of sceneries. The Lamp was made in cooperation with Elisabeth Florstedt. more:  http://www.sirenelisewilhelmsen.com/work.html

‘The Cure For Greed’ injection kit features a 24-karat gold plated syringe and a  single 5 ml dose of dollar ink recovered from approximately $10,000 in US currency. The Cure for Greed Whatever we feel about greed, we can agree on one thing: it exists.  Whether there’s too much of it in the world, or too little, is a matter of opinion,  not understanding. We all have strong feelings one way or the other. On one side of the debate, some believe it’s the root of all that is corrupt and evil.  Conversely, greed is seen and often celebrated as the key behavior that allowed our species to adapt and evolve so successfully. But what exactly is greed? Is it an immutable algorithm hardwired in our DNA, a survival instinct that triggers responses to a constantly changing environment  that can turn hostile at any moment?  Maybe greed is an emotional reaction to our cultural reward system?  Or the embodiment of the darkest side of our natures, rooted in fear? When you get down to it, you realize how little we really know about 'greed'. Still, we’re somehow certain about the effects of greed on individuals and our society.  Understanding the effects of this behavior, without understanding its underlying causes,  is a dangerous leap of faith. It’s critical that we come to terms with greed at a  deeper level if we are to find a ‘cure’, and not just treat its short-term symptoms.  We need to dig deeper and investigate how greed shapes our personal and cultural values,  and how these in turn affect our potential as a civilization and our future as a species. ‘The Cure For Greed’ is an iconic object that sparks an internal and social dialogue  on all aspects of ‘greed’, the benefits as well as dangers of this basic and pervasive  human behavior. It’s an invitation to reexamine our assumptions and inject them with  the type of energy that will ensure new and evolving perspectives.  Our hope is to learn from this process, and grow, to become more human, not by  repressing our nature, but by transcending it with understanding and compassion.
