this is where you come. in 60 minutes on the w. . every journey begins with the 1st step and every language but the 1st word published in the. rico is in germany to learn german and why not learn with him simple online on your mobile and free shots from the d w z e learning course nikos speak german meaning see. you. just saw it on a catcher in a come pranita i'm an architect and designer and i make uncomfortable objects of.

everyday objects that if you can be sure don't work but i'm using just one of our topics on today's show let's see what else we have for you. on those i know street fashion inspired by far and. puzzles me of course are eco friendly and full interesting. when you take photos of food you want to get people's mouth watering but one spanish photographer is targeting different emotions and her image just make us take a closer look to cleverly composed works of art rich in color and whimsical ideas food still plays a key role but not as you might expect. split up the word breakfast and this is what you might end up with. these images are from

tesla doniger spoke to series break fast. despite his for talk of a takes foods an ordinary objects and uses them to produce extraordinary pictures. if you need any that last 3 would use to describe my work. particularly at the end up said. have sort of. efforts result in a real compositions like an egg being shocked with ammunition. pancakes cooked with an iron rather than a frying pan. today taking photos to advertise a shopping mall in madrid as the campaign's creative director she's to produce 4 images that will grace posters and appear on social media don't because photos have little in common with classic food photography. by the one

they're ok sit up straight and show how much you like the show you. that you'll get out there in my fiction is that when you know the food usually looks a little out of place or 3rd as eve never seen it before in a way yes. that i would have run which is it's been taken out of context and they say it overtly staged. it for you know what hey we have a model i you know i know fashion and a campaign there that deals with it but in a playful way they've. discovered her passion for photography and film while she was studying art in 2015 she founded her own agency she shoots commercials and produces for 2 series for magazines. national colors and minimalist composition are her trademarks and food is her favorite subject sometimes eccentric sometimes provokingly stage the biggest challenge is to

make it look fresh and perfect. while the model is being styled for the 2nd photo. goes in search of a prop for her next shop a perfectly friday. as the photo studio has no cooking facilities she gets some from a cafe nearby. was that it was pretty a big trouble with a friday night is. they try a fast train to see the fish here i can take one with me knowing tough to that freud right he must i mean i don't know what i should be able to work with him for now in maximum is you know if not i'll have to come but. it's only a matter of improvisation. but yet when i have the eggs out with some luck i won't drop them on the way right. back at the studio tests against the friday before it's close up the main focus is

on the egg yolk which she tweaks with such a cool precision. in mankato went for a photo of the perfect is one that shines has a nice color and isn't overcooked the much i'm going to forget of course we edit the pictures later but in general the glossy and fuller the better. to just photograph in the sun which would be too simple instead the yolk is transformed into nail polish because i'm usually stories are guaranteed to attract attention. and is good because i guess that icky piecing patches are a dime a dozen or the incidents full of them that means that you know they're so alive and you know today everyone has a smartphone and takes photos. so it's become harder to tell a funny story or set yourself apart from the crowd around. whether it's breakfast lunch or dinner or don't have those photos will leave you hungry for more.

this year germany's celebrated 100 years of bauhaus but it's a copious found of the world famous school and gathered together some of the most creative minds of 1st time the idea has had a lasting influence on the design in architecture worldwide even. the school was closed down and 1933 but that didn't stop the ideas from staying alive to this very day and fashion designers here in germany also pay tribute to bauhaus in their collections. simple elegant modest that's a good way to describe an ago because fashion. minds who are. my approach is more minimal and uniform definitely symmetrical clean straight lines right angles. and that's my thing that's.

the final design it gets here in spirit from powerhouse principles such as minimalism and functionality her line is called bauhaus mag and she's already released 2 collections but she doesn't see herself as a traditional designer creations a far more the result of cooperation with freelance artists and graphic designers like projects. destined for custard this is an i.p.o. pfizer street signs here's a turn arrow this is a stop sign and here's a city marker for vine our. graphic artist came up with them without my input from you i just told them the basic concept the parts because it's for a sweatshirt or us and then i gave them free reign i kept pretty much out of it otherwise it wouldn't be a cooperation. the sweat shirts were produced in blue yellow and red bauhaus

is classic use of primary colors. and lives and works in via the heart of the bauhaus movement which is still present in the city 100 years later the designer gets her inspiration from her surroundings for bauhaus isn't just a cultural movement from the past it's still relevant today. to both of them. and complex the world is getting more crowded and more complex for all of us and i think for some it's easier to be surrounded by things that are more straightforward and clear to. you than to others and to me it's a kind of return to simple things simpler. minimalist design and linear geometric shapes the fashion creations by jennifer brahmana also follow design principles laid down by the bow house architects brahmans beilin label brings together her 2 passions architecture and fashion week started. because we're

already in the composition of the clear principles and approaches nevertheless allow for many different variations. brackman takes elements from conventional clothing and combines for me not unusual ways she's a regular at the french a portent shows in paris. and a girl co-founded her high fashion label in 2012 she regularly designs and for since collections under that name. her son was born in 2016 prompting the designer to step back from the fashion world. but she began designing clothing which she describes as wearable bauhaus. she avoids the pressure to present a new collection every season instead smaller lines appear at a regular intervals. so this content is no this is not

a trend. it's an essential form language and a certain attitude towards design in fact a life. it's about doing without excess. of too few. it's a philosophy that starts with the 1st design right through to the handmade completion . of places importance on eco friendly methods and sustainable materials as well as . what conditions think this is worth is this for no me i think use is also something that connects to a house but in this money to let you take into consideration the fabrics and printing process is you use a simple profile coming. so i mean these things are intertwined this and getting ready to go in my car. on a go cart is carrying down house principles into the 21st century with fashion designs that reflects functionality minimalism and sustainability.

design itself chorus a major topic on our you tube channel and let's see what else you can find there. want to learn more about european lifestyle and culture. when you come to. your home and. take the plunge. labored crazy join the race destroy. your. subscribe so you don't miss it. now let us take a look at a few products that you are guaranteed not to be able to use ever great design a cutting edge come conny came up while other designers want to make our lives easier and more beautiful she swims against the tight but why does she do that we went along to find out. something's wrong here how's anyone supposed to

water flowers with this camp or sweep with this broom. how can you take a pot off the stove with both handles on one side. 40 with this fork caterina come probably makes everyday objects unusable also horse my intention is to make people laugh but i think there's a 2nd level i'd like us not to take these things all around us for granted when i you know my ass they were designed in holding to certain rules on this and oh you break these rules do you learn to appreciate them again a woman of the village so we should always think beyond our own limits but up off those. caterina works as an architect in athens whenever she has the time she works on her design project uncomfortable in her collection has now grown to include over 40 objects. some of them have been used in advertising campaigns.

the off the wall concepts have gone viral on the internet and caterina is working on more uncomfortable design objects. here she takes the arable nomics out of a toothbrush. but has a humanist must have look at what is most important is to pick a suitable object and that has to be something that's easy to use and that we take for granted because we see it every day but that of all citizens for that reason with the math but then i think about how i use this object and i sabotage one aspect of this you see my above. this is i can come up with several different ways to do that and the one that makes me laugh the most while i'm sketching it out is the one that i develop something about the narrative biazon mckim left in the paper while. cutlery now also gives workshops to teach others how to design. unusable

things and delights in the many useless ideas with the participants. so we have the after this workshop part of the ground seeing certain objects with lots more humor. that it was really entertaining and liberating to be allowed to think in this direction. in daily life it's not possible because things are more serious normally everything has to work and be useful. is the. arena has exhibited her designs all around europe. her workshops are also small exhibitions of her uncomfortable collection. on this project be uncomfortable came at a time that was very hard for me or uncomfortable i wanted to become a designer but with the economic crisis in greece that was uneasy so i decided to become an uncomfortable designer of the project was an expression of my situation.

be uncomfortable project continues as caterina company constantly finds new inspiration for unusable i.d.'s. when you think off the great heroes in the history of mankind who do you have in mind probably a man and of course there are some women to a game developer from poland wanted to celebrate and has adapted a classic game to do so now girls and young women can use a game to get to know female role models and heroes. author j.k. rowling artist frida kahlo and tennis serena williams. in the game. they share the board with 25 other women. these include famous and not so well known figures from the past to the present. polish designers are

going to run came up with the idea. with the help of a small team she began developing the game in 28 teen at her workshop in warsaw. the basic idea is so inspire little girls and show them that they can do anything they want with real star is a real women from all the time. it's a game for 2 players they ask questions in turn and try to guess which woman their opponent has chosen the 1st player to guess correctly when you ask questions about everything about any information that's going right on the board so i doubt their accomplishments about their life about where they come from about anything that you can see there you cannot ask about their looks so there is something it's forbidden . that rule was important for zosia as

a mother she has found that even her young daughter is often judge solely by her appearance. i was on the playground with her and i was like what's going on here because i can see other boys playing and the other. to chat with months and months i like look how he's how his he's making this and make things and i what's up with is that we are talking more about him and so both . on girls we are only about there. she considered the biographies of around $400.00 women while designing the game she wanted the final choice to include a variety of cultures era. and occupations. a woman from her native poland made it into the game nobel prize winner maria curie better known as marie curie cherie present. problems. the difficulty that women can have in

science for me so i think that it's important to know her story in order to see that you can overcome those obstacles. the watercolor portraits were painted by. the challenge for the polish artist was to make the women look realistic not idealized and immediately recognizable it's not just the way the findings will look but also the expression the women will have because some of them are smiling some of them show their teeth some are like more. serious. so just deciding. which one should look how should look very friendly were drawn harder to approach for example so that was part of like deciding on how exactly to find. who she is available in 6 different languages including english german and spanish. the board is made of birchwood but

a cheaper cardboard one is also available to designer hopes to make her game available to as many children as possible and not just girls. i think that it's important for boys as well to see women as hearings as well because if they don't see them as equal if boys don't see girls as equal. in the competition then ever it won't work. believes that the more strong female role models girls have the more they'll try to emulate them who she is her way of showing girls they can achieve anything. now who lets open the bottle. even though it's the holidays today where not so much interested in the bubbly but the cork that keeps it in fight the bottle cork is a very versatile material and now an entire house in england has been built from it

the great thing is it is 100 percent natural and totally less likable. you can use cork for one bottles or to build an entire house. this one in eastern england is actually made completely of cork and it's entirely sustainable i've always been slightly dissatisfied with things that we typically build with especially in a housing so you know concrete block cement based mortar plastic foam insulation and a whole collection of things which and up being quite so the negative impacts on resources to miss muffet helen thomas team experimented for almost 20 years cutting interlocking cork blocks until they found the best structural solution the $1268.00 blocks are slotted together without mortar. gravity alone holds them together and no additional insulation is needed. it's slightly warm to the touch

it's got some texture visually in it and it's got a lovely smile so it's great for creating a very rich sensory experience in the house. that does have a smell all of its own a bit like inside a cigar box. 44 square meters of conflict and security modern in a cave could once rather like in an ancient mayan temple. because there's no linings in the space you're going to be looking at the role structure of the building so you get a very strong sense underneath the pyramids of loads of weights actually coming down towards you and around you and that's quite a powerful architectural feeling. has long been used some building facades. this holiday home was built in 2007 in northern portugal that's the cork oak. time has left its mark on this house. with the environment moves in changes color that's

exactly what. likes about it. as it rains. when it's wet here in this one is behaving just as we expected so these sharks want brown color it's the color of the reaction to the. wetness of the atmosphere it's very sensual material it follows the seasons it changes through and through and through the year. a tribute to portugal's national pride. because the world's largest korku forest it's a paradise of biodiversity and a boon to the climates. orchard is one of privilege because the cork has a unique system for each dawn of course we retain

$73.00. to and in that 3 species that we don't cut we just feel the bark of the tree. the trees can be up to 200 years old the core can be harvested every 9 years when the bark grows thick enough to be kerf cuts. as bottle course are increasingly replaced by metal and plastic stoppers the oak is in decline. so the rediscovery of cork as a building material is welcome. its office also online but current trends. you don't get to put something on the outside of your house if you don't like so people 1st have a visual and aesthetic satisfaction with the product it is at the same time a roost the contemporary visual. basket was a true pioneer in this field as has introduced many architects to the beauty of cork its insulating qualities against noise and cold resistance the fire in total

recyclability is a revolution. was born in japan to canada why we wish it was a good thing to go. now hundreds of constructions using cork have been built private homes doctors practices schools. but there's never been a building made exclusively of cork like the house in eaton. matthew hell i'm just pleased with the result and it's even moved in. project exhaustion at the moment but it is it is much you know it is a very calm space i think too much martin architecture perhaps he is interested in huge windows and smooths flat white walls and i really like it here that this sort of much more atmospheric feeling. and given the almost 0 carbon

footprint he'll certainly be able to sleep with a clear conscience. pretty cool 2020 will see the 250th birthday off a genius composer lute big fun beethoven and to mark the occasion we would like you to send us your version of his composition here iliza on a musical instrument of your choice my colleagues have already had a go. as you can hear it doesn't always have to sound perfect the main thing is that we can still recognize it you can upload the video directly to our website and your m.p. will take part in our draw to win a trip for 2 to beethoven's birthplace on the river rhine and because i already
