Although ill, I was a martyr and managed to do the Pecha Kucha talk last night.
You can see my best impression of David Bellamy and the Kung Fu Tiger Style on the Pecha Kucha flickr book.
It seems like the feedback was positive, and although I tried to do a ridiculous thing (2000 years in 20 chairs) it seemed to go rather well.
You can link to Pecha Kucha NZ here.
I am going to put some new and relevant design posts up over the weekend. Until then, anyone who knows me will tell you I like Star Wars.
.... and it was a great trip, the highlights of which were seeing Michele De Luchi in conversation with Paola Antonelli at the seminar space to the back of my booth, and going to FAO Schwatz to the the Wot Not workshop and making my own muppet in my personal image!
I am going to update with images and links as soon as I can, but you can visit apartment therapy, PSFK, inhabitat, designboom and Blueprint Magazine sites to see the Pythagoras in all it's glory, and how we presented it.
The show was a great success, and although slower than previous years, definately a positive outlook on the current economic climate within the design industry.
Thanks to all that came and visited us, took us out for drinks and joined us for dinner!
SO, swine flu allowing - we will be in New York in two weeks (YAY!) showing our new stool / side table Pythagoras.
We will have a small number of first runs - which we will be getting rid of at the end of the show at a very reasonable price.
If you are interested in buying one, or would even like to reserve one (there are only 9!), then send us a mail for further details.
Look forward to seeing you in the Big Apple!
So, I've been super busy packing off some work for the ICFF next month, so not many updates.
Here is some nice animation out takes from lakai final flare.
So I did that over the weekend at The New Dowse,and it was great fun with the kids taking a lot away from it - and getting some free stuff. You can see a few images on the northwards design site, and a few more on the the Manual site.
So there is a series of videos on Marc Newson on Youtube form the BBC series 'Imagine' with Allan Yentob.
Although I am not a huge Newson fan, (I prefer his interiors and product work to his furniture) I do have more respect for him through this insight, which I found fascinating.
If you havent watched this or this then you should take some time out of your day.
