Nasty Surprises

We have a short presentation today in front of our profs - just 5 minutes to explain our concept and basic plan layouts.

So I have a jolly good time and make 2 x A2 sheets with some sketches and photoshopped diagrams and a model attempt for them to see

No scales were specified or paper size

So I come in with my bitesize presentation and see EVERYONE has made A1s/A0s in the bajillions as if its our final presentation

for 10%?

Im sitting right now waiting for my turn and I’m like:

Loving the Herringbone brick flooring in this kitchen! Who says brick is for walls + outdoors only?

Bibliochaise by Nobody&co

I was just thinking how perfect this would be for my humble little apartment when I read the designer’s quote:

“Twelve years ago we lived in a tiny flat, full of books but with nowhere to sit. Problems are always the best inspirations.That same year we drew the first Bibliochaise: a cube in which to sit, with slots all around to put books in. Geometry is magic. Each time you draw a cube or a square, something wonderful can happen.”

Perfect summary. Apparently the chair can hold 300 books and (even more win) comes in a range of different colors. You can visit its home right here.
