Everything and nothing



Some designers are just on poems instead of products, Martín Azúa from Pais Vasco is one of them.

A self-inflating prefab home, as soon as it interacts with either body temperature or heat from the sun, it goes from a flat sheet of material to an insulated home. With this concept he has created this experimental prototype… a basic house under the principle of ”having everything without having almost anything”

His Basic House is part of MOMA collection New York.
Good one!

”…una casa casi inmaterial que se hincha a partir del calor de nuestro propio cuerpo o del sol, tan versátil que dándole la vuelta nos protege del frío o del calor, tan ligera que flota y que, además, se puede plegar y llevar en un bolsillo. Una vida en tránsito sin ataduras materiales. Tenerlo todo sin tener apenas nada.”

These pouches are part of our latest additions to the Utility Pockets, we are developing a strong aim to keep it easy.

Something was left on our recycled process so we’ve started using also these reinforcement bits. Extremely sturdy. Simple products for simple uses.

A perfect size for a couple of pencils, rubber and sharpener. Or even for a tiny toothbrush and toothpaste.

  • Flat dimensions 19cm high, 6cm width.
  • Weight capacity of 0,3l.

Another Something & Company

I’ve been getting lost through AnotherSomething notes, weblog about the beauty of cultures, creativity and elegance. By Joachim Baan, dutch graphic designer and photographer, working under the name AnotherCompany and operating in art, fashion, graphic, interior design and communication.
Too good.

Glad to be another note on this pretty and selective place 😉
Truly inspiring.

Flags and oddities




I’ve been in Hong Kong last week. While making pictures I did not realize that the flags were there repeated for the people to collect them. Eight or nine streets full of textile suppliers found by chance. As well as the streets for trimmings, metal pieces, ribbons, beads. And also tanners! There is a world of possibilities wide open. Generally a minimum quantity of 5 yards with a full color range available. Easy.

I brought some flags and materials as souvenir, and I had left with the feeling that everything remain possible.
