lovely poly venner cork bowls by Martin Zampach.

A set of hexagonal bowls made using specially developed sandwich material for lightweight but firm structure. Sandwich is made out of veneer and cork layers. Flexible build materials allow for extreme shaping of the segments. When all parts are locked to form the bowl the structure gets its strength.

The bowls come in different sizes and proportions. They fit together in several ways to form illusional 2D/3D ornaments. Their simple functionality makes the bowls an ideal table accessory.

Product is part of the project COLABSERIES.COM which first edition has been on show during DMY Berlin beginning of June 2012.

Don't you love seeing the process of making a wonderful idea come true? :)

These beautiful "Wood Casting" furniture are designed Isreali designer Hilla Shamia.

Furniture combing the cast aluminium and wood.The negative factor of burnt wood is transformed into aesthetic and emotional value. Preservation of the natural form of the tree trunk within the explicit boundaries. The general,squared form intensifies the artificial feeling, and in the same time keeps the memory of the material.

The Rotterdam Stadskantoor is a municipal building undergoing renovations in the Netherlands, but you couldn't tell by looking at its lovely leafy facade! 2012 Architecten won a competition to beautify the in-progress building with a vertical garden mural that creeps up its boarded face. The Dutch design team arranged hundreds of recycled plastic pots previously used in local horticulture projects in tree shapes that sprawl across the broken down bricks. These are then filled with a variety of seasonal plants that are far nicer to look at than the construction materials necessary to upgrade the municipality's office space.

2012 Architecten's vertical garden, also known as “I’d rather make a forest than a street,” is an innovative way to distract local residents from the necessary two year construction period – a sort of apology that also has great environmental benefits. In addition to recycling the materials necessary to decorate the facade, the designers installed a rainwater capture systemwith a series of holding tanks in the building’s attic.

A drip irrigation system funnels water from the attic tanks into the potted plants on the building’s exterior, so that waste is almost completely eliminated. Not only that, but the plants absorb carbon dioxide emissions – an estimated 13,000 kg of CO2 is diverted from the atmosphere each year. In an era when function too often trumps aesthetics, this gesture by the municipality of Rotterdam is very special, an

In this international period, we have friends and family all over the world.  Wouldn't it be nice to have clocks that tells you exactly what time your love ones are living?

I wish those clocks shows "date" and "am & pm," a lot of times I miscalculate and wake people up in the middle of the night. :p

Music video from OK Go, made in partnership with Chevrolet. OK Go set up over 1000 instruments over two miles of desert outside Los Angeles. A Chevy Sonic was outfitted with retractable pneumatic arms designed to play the instruments, and the band recorded this version of Needing/Getting, singing as they played the instrument array with the car. The video took 4 months of preparation and 4 days of shooting and recording. There are no ringers or stand-ins; Damian took stunt driving lessons. Each piano had the lowest octaves tuned to the same note so that they'd play the right note no matter where they were struck. Many thanks to Chevy for believing in and supporting such an insane and ambitious project, and to Gretsch for providing the guitars and amps. For more information visit http://www.okgo.net. Director: Brian L. Perkins & Damian Kulash, Jr. Director of Photography: Yon Thomas Editor: Doug Walker Producer: Luke Ricci
