filo inspiration
Enamelware and cast iron. I’ve always preferred a good, heavy pan. It was a challenge to think of how an aluminium pan could achieve that same enduring feel. When I heard about coloured ceramic non-stick coating, I was excited by the many possibilities suggested by it. The imprecise quality of dipped and speckled enamel coats is timeless.
filo inspiration
Working kitchens and rustic charm.

I put my mid-2009 MBP to work while I tried to figure out good colors for filo.
the Internet of Things, all up in your hizouse - AKA - Optimus Amazon Prime.
Suffice to say that Amazon has been working hard to bring their web based brand of buying to your door. For the Brick and Mortar faithful, a shop in NYC, and of course pulling the world of logistics (their main foray) into the 21st - same day deliveries & autonomous drones for a better consumer experience.
I’ve seen good friends panic stricken after hitting the ‘one-click’ buy button, and experienced their relief vicariously when they realized Amazon had a contingency plan for clicky-clarks. Now they’ve removed one further smudge from the glass wall - amazon.com itself.
magic internet buttons
Just because you can’t see something doesn’t mean it’s not there. In a sense that embodies the ‘Internet of Things’ paradigm. Amazon’s latest device is an analog one-click payment for whatever you use and buy on Amazon everyday. The idea that Amazon seems to have is that people will replace their grocery lists with conveniently placed buttons and on-demand fulfillment buttons. It’s a clever and subtle way of integrating an online experience into your home where you otherwise might not think to use it.
I’m not so sure if we’re there yet. At least from what I see around me, Amazon is still that gigantic bookstore with an ever growing selection of non-books. I’ve never thought of it as the go-to for toilet paper, windex or Maxwell House, as the promo suggests. I think the button is a good tool for driving that change though, and if a customizable one came free in my next package, I’d probably be tempted to find something to use it on. If another promotional one came with each package after that, I’d likely continue to find things to use it on until my entire house was wired like an affluent Chinese HAL 9000 during cherry blossom season.
