Tendenze design-artigianato 2016

I miei materiali preferiti sono legno, ceramica e ottone. Quest'anno l'ottone e il rame sono considerati i materiali più di tendenza. Questi colori caldi, che permettono per esempio all’ottone (o al rame) di risultare caldo, pur essendo metallicamente freddo, danno alla casa un tocco di eleganza minimal e un po' di varietà.

Lucie Rie and the paradox of Schrödinger’s pot

I don’t like pots. I just like some pots.  Lucie Rie The pots speak for themselves, but the intellectual side of Lucie is sometimes overlooked.  She preferred simple ideas and simple and spare explanations provoking some to see her as a simpleton. Her eye was not the only part of her that was first class. Lucie listened well, responded with few words and with wit. When asked what she did the day the Germans entered Vienna, she replied; “I read Gone with the Wind”.  When explaining her appreciation of English society, she said “I am so grateful to Hitler”…I dropped by to see Lucie one afternoon after dining with Prof. RM Dalitz, FRS.  “Ian, you seem very pleased with yourself”.  “Perhaps so” I...
