How to choosing a hammer for your diy insect display !

A light hammer makes your insect display easiler, suitable for pins and fine nails.

It is never easy to manipulate thin nails or pins, we often failed with regular hammers. Our light hammer (100 gram) is handy to give slight hits which supplies precise hits on small nails. Moreover, it provides us a clear view to hammer-nail-object with its one square centimeter metallic head. No more injury of fingers nor damage of your beautiful insects. The handle is made out of wood with a comfortable ergonomic form, classic handcraft style.

Oscar Lhermitte- Topographically Accurate Moon Globe

[opticallyaddicted]

A Topographically Accurate Lunar Globe Designed with Data From NASA

Product designer Oscar Lhermitte has collaborated with design studio Kudu to produce a topographically accurate lunar globe that turns along with the phases of the moon. MOON exists at a 1:20 million scale and was created with data from NASA to reveal all of the moon’s craters in precise detail. As the round light or “sun,” rotates around the globe, dramatic shadows are cast across its surface.

With three settings, you can manually twist the moon to the position you desire, place it on demo mode to let you see all phases in 30 seconds, or switch it to live mode to have the piece synchronize with the current position of the moon itself. In addition to a physical similarity to the moon, the globe also has an intrinsic connection to it. MOON’s computer system has the exact same memory as the Apollo 11 computers that landed the first men on the earth-orbiting giant.

You can check out more about the project on MOON’s Kickstarter.

Oscar Lhermitte is a French multidisciplinary designer based in London. He graduated from Central Saint Martins in 2009 in Product Design and from the Royal COllege of Arts

During the Tallinn’s Design Night Week I had the pleasure to listen to a lecture held by Oscar Lhermitte, a French (product) designer based in London. In addition I had a chance to visit his exhibition “No Randomness”. Both of them were focused to the functionality and design of what an ordinary person would call “random” things. From this exhibition/lecture you would for example find out, why the sewerege hole is round, why the pint glasses are shaped like they are, why the stop sign is hectacular and etc. His lecture was extremely inspiring as it influences you to ask a very important question: why? And not only with things that fascinate us, but also with things that don’t fascinate us yet, but would if we would ask the right questions. He also talked about, how designing is fixing and every time a designer makes something, he is actually not in the position of a designer, an artist, but a fixer. He urged the people to ask before every project: what is it that I am fixing here? What is it that I am trying to improve and make better? Which, for me, made also so much sense and I try and imply these questions to everything that I do now. I admire Oscar Lhermitte for his unstoppable curiosity and need of answers and I think it is indeed extremely important to know how things work, why they work and why are they designed that way. With our everyday items and essentials we tend to forget that actually someone once has designed this. Therefore, we forget to ask ourselves – why did that person design this object this way and not another?

I love stars. I think it's lovely to have the possibility to go on a stargazing walk, learning about city myths and stars in low-visibility areas.
