    SKULTUNA 1607 - THE ANCIENT TRADITION OF MODERNITY For over 400 years the lustre of Skultuna brass has illuminated the world. With classic designs from the time of our found- er King Karl IX of Sweden, as well as with ground breaking antiquities of tomorrow by leading international designers like GamFratesi, Lara Bohinc, Luca Nichetto, Monica Förster, Richard Hutten and Claesson Koivisto Rune to name a few. And herein lies the formula to why today Skultuna can be found at leading department stores all around the world, has won a number of international design awards and regularly exhibits at the leading international design fairs - we have always been, and will always be, one part traditional craftsmanship and one part modernity. The result can be seen in the following pages and at skultuna.com THE DESIGNER In the latest few years I developed a series of everyday objects for Skultuna, which are openly informed by the modern Italian design legacy; by merging this cultural heritage with that of the prestigious Swedish design company, I tried to high- light diversity, dialogue and exchange as key elements for the definition of a truly contemporary material culture. I’m writing this text from Milan. Other designers are probably doing the same from other cities around Europe. Skilled craftsmen are then working with our objects at the historic factory in Skultuna, while probably someone from the other side of the world is purchasing these objects on the web. We have elements to think that this amazing collaborative and multi-disciplinary network will continue to evolve, spreading Skultuna history and tradition to an even broader audience, hopefully passing its knowledge to future generations.

  • A Chair to Look to the Moon What We Can Learn from Irrational Design History for Contemporary Design Practice
    Paper draft – for DesignIX conference in Berlin, 15-17 februari. Version 10 November 2008 A chair to look to the moon What we can learn from irrational design history for contemporary design practice. Introduction The focus of product design is shifting from primarily offering functionality, towards experience and emotion driven product characteristics (Green, 2002). According to the theory of product phases (Eger, 2007), products will end in a phase characterized by individualization or awareness. Where the affective, emotional and abstract product values, become more and more important (Desmet, 2002; Norman, 2004). Individualization and awareness are, not accidently, also high up in Maslow’s hierarchy of needs. Different authors have different ideas about how to implement this emotion and affection in product design. Some of them even argue that affectivity is not influenced by the design at all, but only through the meaning that the user attaches to the product (Csikszentmihalyi, 1991/2007). That this idea is not new, or even from the last decades, is illustrated by a Chinese chair design dating from the Ming-period (illustration 1). This chair type is referred to as a ‘chair to look to the moon’ instead of as a ‘reclining chair’. In this way the chair is defined by the thing that you have to do with it, rather than by its functioning. And with this title the design opens up a whole of poetic associations like quiet nights on a veranda, clear skies, twinkling stars or even howling werewolves. By dreaming away with these associations you might even forget that the chair is actually not very comfortable.

ECOPIXEL is a manufacturing company that recycles mono-polymer plastic typol- ogy, made from 100% shredded waste material. The material is usually made with industrial thermoplastic waste but more and more also with collected material from any other field including household-waste. Recycling a mono-polymer means the material can be melted and re-melted an infinite number of times resulting in a forever circular material and creating this way a true “cycle” in material-use. As long as a material stays “clean” (read mono-polymer) it can be transformed at the exact temperature of the polymer involved and so, the material will never “burn” and deteriorate. Keeping polymers separate is thinking also about what happens after the recycled cycle.

  • THE DESIGN PRIZE Another Design Award? Yes
    THE DESIGN PRIZE Another Design Award? Yes. Unlike any other, it is the crowd-sourcing of nominations and fluid award categories that make THE DESIGN PRIZE stand apart as an initiative built by and for the creative backstage. THE DESIGN PRIZE was co-founded by Abitare Magazine and Designboom, and is an international award: although intrinsically linked to the city of Milan — the global epicentre of design. THE DESIGN PRIZE goes behind the scenes of the industry, recognizing design culture ‘from within’ by consulting a broad network of creative practitioners on which projects, initiatives, concepts and accomplishments — realized over the past 12 months — most deserve to be honored. A network of over 150 acclaimed professionals presented a ‘longlist’ of more than 750 nominations. Experts in their respective fields, these voices combine to create an essential litmus test of the industry at large. This network, in the recently concluded selection process, included such vital creative figures as Baranowitz Kronenberg (architects, Israel), Barber & Osgerby (designers, UK), Fernando & Humberto Campana (designers, Brazil) Claesson Koivisto Rune (architects, Sweden), Matali Crasset (designer, France), Guta Moura Guedes (ExperimentaDesign, Portugal), Massimiliando and Dorians Fuksas (architects, Italy), Ron Gilad (artist/designer, Israel), Richard Hutten (designer, The Netherlands), Deniz Ova + Bahar Turkay (Istanbul Foundation for Culture and Arts, Turkey), Marcio Kogan (Studio mk27, Brazil), Jin Kuramoto (designer, Japan), Daniel Libeskind (architect, USA), Alberto Meda (designer, Italy), Jasper Morrison (designer, UK), Jo Nagasaka (architect, Japan), Nina Yashar (Galleria Nilufar, Milano, Italy), and Carlo Ratti (MIT Senseable City Lab, USA). Their selections are then distributed across 10 distinct categories, flexible in their definitions and open to interpretation.

  • News 2018 Furniture with a Mission
    News Furniture with 2018 a mission. At a time when the line between public and private, work and leisure, away and at home, tends to become blurred, Offecct seeks to create a more sustainable balance in people’s lives. One that has positive repercussions in the broader perspective, that is, on the state of the earth. This is our mission. We call it Offecct Lifecircle. Offecct furniture is focused on soft meetings and can be found and appreciated in public places and at social venues, such as hotels, restaurants, universities, galleries... And, in particular, in offices – an environment that, to say the least, is undergoing major changes considering how people work today and in the future. Our design primarily aims at being a creative tool for the architect to decorate and create inspiring and activity-based environments that meet the needs of today and the future. Our furniture is created in Sweden in collaboration with selected architects and designers around the world. Based on our Lifecircle philosophy, it is manufactured in elaborate, often pioneering materials. It often has a unique twist, frequently meeting a previously unknown need. It allows people to relax or, indeed, have more energy. It allows individuals to start talking to each other, yielding ideas that will change the world for the better. This year’s news is no exception.
