the adventures of the famous naturalist and explorer. too soon to bring to clicks on the from the blogs to $250.00. morning on the floor of the discovery. expedition boy. you. just saw it on a catcher in a come friday i'm an architect and designer and i make uncomfortable objects. everyday objects that if you can be sure don't work but i'm using just one of our topics on to these so let's see what else we have for you. during those i know

street fashion inspired by fox and. puzzles me of course are eco friendly and fall in trends. 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 done it has photo series break fast. despite his photographer 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 on his. particular basically said. the efforts result in sue real compositions like an egg being shocked with i mean ition. pancakes cooked with a minor rather than a frying pan. today is taking photos to advertise a shopping mall in madrid as the campaign is created by rector she has to produce for images that will grace posters and appear on social media. because photos have little in common with plastic food photography. by until one day ok sit up straight and show how much you like the shoe.

bag you know i have in my head i mean the food usually looks a little out of playing sports though as you've never seen it before in a way yes. they got enough around what it's been taken out of context and they say it overtly staged. for you know what here we have a model i you know i know fashion 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 full 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 starved for the 2nd photo. goes in search of a prop for her next shot

a perfectly friday. as the photo studio has no cooking facilities she gets some from a cafe nearby. was that it was leave the us a big trouble with friday is. they try and foster you see the fish here i can take one with me right off the bat fry you are the most i mean i don't know what i should be able to work with them for now i'm maximum you know if not i'll have to come but. it's only a matter of improvisation. like that where i have the eggs out with some luck i won't drop them on the way i'm going. back at the studio tests against the friday before it's close up the main focus is on the old guild which she tweaks with such a cool precision. and

then a lot of went for a photo of the perfect one that shines as a nice color and isn't overcooked. of course we edit the pictures later but in general the glossy and fuller the better. or just photographing the sandwich would be too simple instead the yolk is transformed into nail polish because unusual stories are guaranteed to attract attention. $850.00 s. i have static azing pictures are a dime a dozen are the incidents one of them then is that you know they are so alive again and today everyone has a smartphone and takes photos but it got so it's become harder to tell a funny story or set yourself apart from the crowd around. whether it's brick 1st lunch or dinner or don't like those photos will leave you hungry for more.

this year germany has celebrated 100 years of bauhaus but a copious found of the world famous school and gathered together some of the most creative minds of his time the idea has had a lasting influence on the design in architecture worldwide even though the school was closed down and 933 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. my into. my approach is more minimal and uniform definitely symmetrical clean straight lines right angles. and that's my thing that's. the final designer gets her inspiration from powerhouse principles such as

minimalism and functionality her line is called our housemate 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 project. doesn't. there's an app you go far as your street signs here's a turn arrow this is a stop sign and here's a city marker for a vine article because. 'd the graphic artist came up with them without my input or 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 sweatshirts 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 gorka bauhaus isn't just a cultural movement from the past it's still relevant today. it's a growth with a following complex the world is getting more crowded and more complex for all of us i think for some it's easier to be surrounded by things that are more straightforward and clear to. you than to the. and to me it's a kind of return to simple things simpler. minimalist design and living out geometric shapes the fashion creations by jennifer brahmana also follow design principles laid down by the bow house architects brockman spolin label brings together her 2 passions of architecture and fashion 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 them in the new she always she's a regular at the pressure portent shows in paris. and of gorkha founded her high fashion label in 2012 she regularly designs and for a sense 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 powerhouse. she avoids the pressure to present a new collection every season instead smaller lines appear at a regular intervals. it's kind friend says 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 access. to few.

it's a philosophy that starts with the 1st design right through to the handmade completion and places importance on eco friendly methods and sustainable materials as well as fair work conditions i think this is both of us as if you know me too i think this is also something that connects to buy a house put in it as many of the that you take into consideration the fabrics and printing process as you use. they seem to prefer coming. so movies things are intertwined this and getting ready to go in and my car. is carrying powerhouse principles into the 21st century with fashion designs that reflect functionality minimalism and sustainability. design is of course a major topic on our you tube channel and let's see what else you can find there.

how can you take a pot off the stove with both handles on one side. or heat with this fork catarina 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 to according to certain rules some long miss and oh you break these rules too you learn to appreciate them again they want to believe 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 tooth brush. that has a can of m's must have appeared what's most important is to pick a suitable object now it 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 from the north of there not think about how i use this object and i sabotage one aspect of this using my. small business 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 developed having about the knobs here as well in the kitchen left in the paper what i'll. 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 dancing certain objects at home 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 guy. that arena has exhibited her designs all around europe. our workshops are also small exhibitions of her uncomfortable collection. 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. beyond comfortable project continues this culture in the 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 them 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 ace 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 because you rock came up with the idea. with the help of

a small team she began developing the game in 28 teen after a workshop in warsaw. the basic idea is so inspire little girls and show them that they can do anything they want with real stories of 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 wins you ask questions about everything about any information that's going to find on the board so about 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 like. to chat with months and months i like look how he's like 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. she considered the biographies of around $400.00 women while designing the game she wanted the final choice to include a variety of cultures air. and occupations. a woman from her native poland made it into the game nobel prize winner maria curie better known as marie curie to 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. to watercolor portraits were painted by real go home.

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 painting will look but also all the expression though and it will have some of them are smiling some of them show their teeth some are like in more. serious pose so just deciding. which one should look how which on should look very friendly with john harder to approach for example. part of like deciding on how exactly to bring them . 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. the 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 well because if they don't see them as equal if boys don't see girls as equal. in the competition and never 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 has left 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 5 a bottle cork is a very versatile material and now an entire house in england has been built from at the great thing as it is 100 percent natural and totally a cycle. you can use cork for one bottles 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 housing so you know concrete blocks cement based mortar plastic foam insulation and a whole collection of things which and up being quite sort of negative impacts on on resources to miss muffet helen thomas team experimented for almost 20 years cutting interlocking cork blocks until they found the best structural solution that's $168.00 blocks or slotted together without mortar and. gravity alone holds them together and no one dish no 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 my house. that does have a smell all of its own a bit like inside a cigar box. 44 square meters of comfort 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 permits 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 the habitat of the cork oak. time has left its mark on this house. course and chilling with the environment moves in changes color that's exactly what vasco magali likes about it. as it's rained. and it's wet here in this one is behaving just as we expected.

these sharks want to brown color it's the color of the reaction to the. went most of the atmosphere it's very central material it follows the seasons it changes through and through and through the year. a tribute to portugal's national pride. it has the world's largest korku forest it's a paradise of biodiversity and a boon to the climate. is one of privilege because the cork has a unique system for each dawn of course we retain $73.00. to and in the 3 species that we don't cut we just peel the bark of the tree. the trees can be up to 200 years old

the core can be harvested every 9 years but the buck grows thick enough to be carefully cut. as bottle courts are increasingly replaced by metal and plastic stoppers the oak is in decline. so the rediscovery of cork as a building material is welcome. it's not there's 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. vasco is a true pioneer in this field as has introduced many architects the deputy of cork its insulating qualities against noise and cold resistance the fire in total recyclability is a revolution. also born in japan to canada and while we wish it was

a good material. now hundreds of constructions use in court 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 helen displeased with the result and is even moved in. project source 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 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
