Ekokook, the kitchen of the future


Ekokook is called, and is the kitchen of the future: it is an exciting new project by Faltazi design, which aims to bring ecology in the world of cooking home.
The theme of energy saving is particularly important in the kitchen: it is in fact the environment in which they retain the waste, food to burn, as well as energy expenditure, generating between 85 and 90% of junk family.
It 's a very high figure and if you add to this that often the collection is not conducted properly, it is understood that the waste is enormous.

This was the starting point of French designers Massimo and Victor Laurent Lebot, reflection from which is born then Ekokook, cooking label. The concept is the driving recycling and reuse of materials , from water to plastic: the environment is developed, because everyone can become self-sufficient at home, and especially in the kitchen.

Designers Victor Massip, Laurent Lebot, have designed a system where the water is recycled, for example for watering plants and gardens, while the waste is disposed of through the help of earthworms : The kitchen includes containers unused boxes, a tank under the sink to collect water for reuse and a container where the earthworms consume organic waste.

solid waste is compacted and pressed instead, assembled through the collection.
addition, the refrigerator is equipped with watertight compartments to avoid wasting energy.


To better understand, here are the words which is presented to the project:
" Our project is based on four essential elements of waste management, health food, reducing energy consumption and intelligent storage. We focus on materials that lie between the house and external resources: every wall, balcony, window, door or shutter can be used as support for environmentally-friendly installation. Each installation that interacts with external elements is capable of producing an immediate economic benefit. All air, water, wind and the sun reaching the house must be seen as valuable resources to capture and use .

Pesce, fish No: what to buy?


recent episode of The Report on tuna has created many questions about which fish are "right" to buy fresh or box.
The issue is not simple, because many species face extinction while for others the problem is caused by fishing techniques or breeding. But the role of the consumer is vital, because it can affect the choices on the state of the seas.

Slow Food has brought the campaign Fare's Fair, with the support of a small guide that provides a set of basic guidelines , which we summarize here.

The basic rules
1. Get more information (da dove proviene? È allevato o pescato?)
2. Preferire la produzione nazionale , ancora meglio se della propria zona
3. Orientarsi sul pesce azzurro (alici, sardine, sgombri, palamite, tombarelli, …) e sui frutti di mare: sono prodotti con molti pregi, sia ambientali che nutritivi
4. Evitare sempre pesce sotto taglia
5. Alle specie sovrasfruttate (tonno rosso, pescespada, cernia, salmone...) preferire quelle che subiscono una minore pressione di pesca, neglette per quel che riguarda il mercato, ma molto interessanti dal punto di vista gastronomico.
6. Prefer fish with a short-lived , that they reach adulthood within a year or two (red mullet, sole, anchovies, sea bream, ...)

neglected
Fish Species little known but are tasty and economical alternative to low impact our usual food choices. Alalunga, mackerel, bonito, dumpers, all of the family of tuna, mackerel and then, pilot fish, bluefish, zerri, dolphin fish, snapper bastard, scabbard fish, spearfish .


Seasonality Seasonality is not just a matter of taste but respect the natural balance. Sea urchins reproduce between May and June: it is forbidden to consume during these months, it would put at risk the preservation of the species. Avoid eating the juvenile amberjack (from August to November). We eat dolphin because winter is the period where it is most good and not reproductive stage.

What fish is it?
We always know what kind of fish consumed ? When we buy is called dogfish, blue shark, porbeagle, veal or seafood dogfish but we know that this is shark meat? Tens of millions of sharks are killed each year, intentionally or accidentally, el 'Italy is among the largest consumers in the world . Eliminate these important predators from the food chain is disrupting the balance of the entire marine ecosystem.

Interview with Alex Cerra


Alessandro Acerra is a river of ideas has gained fame thanks to its eco t-shirt, t-shirts made by hand one by one, with great care and with final finishing needle: each piece is designed, cut and sewn stitching fabrics different. Finally
a different idea, and more 'echo, because the tissues derived from waste materials and a project against the' mass approval, each t-shirt is different and has with him a certificate of authenticity that guarantees its uniqueness.
addition to eco t-shirt, here are the eco-toys : also unique pieces of cloth are cute little monsters recycled to help us keep the environment clean. In fact, depending on the size, they become special containers and baskets.
Alessandro Acerra, however, is not only that: it is an eclectic, which is pursuing the eco-challenge in many fields of art: leave to him the word!



First, who is Alessandro Acerra?
My name is Alessandro Acerra and I was born in Avellino in 1980. I graduated at the 'Accademia di Belle Arti di Milano in 2005, address design as contemporary crafts, with a dissertation on eco-design entitled "Nothing is created, everything is recycled." While I finished my studies, I attended various training courses in 3D modeling and visual communication at the Politecnico di Milano.
Today, in addition to devote to the eco t-shirt, I carry my own innate drive towards art in general, eco design, paintings, installations, videos. I feel alive in this way.
Hibu is the name of my personal website, and is built around one word of which serves to give a landmark to locate my product.

You call yourself eco designer, but what does that mean exactly?
The fabric I use are gathered from the catwalks of Milan fashion, used clothing, textiles found or given. The eco t-shirts are a product of the idea that from the beginning until the spedizione curo personalmente, sia come giusto sia nella cucitura a macchina e nelle rifiniture ad ago di ogni singolo pezzo. In questo modo sono sicuro di rendere il prodotto con il tempo sempre più apprezzato e icona di qualità.

Non pensi che tutti i designers al giorno d'oggi dovrebbero essere un po' ecodesigners?
Il percorso di trasformazione è lungo ma non impossibile,sicuramete quelli della mia generazione nascono eco fin dall'inizio.



Quando è nata precisamente questa tua attenzione verso l'ambiente e le tematiche sociali?
Sicuramete il mio carattere e attenzione personale e sempre stato rivolto verso questo tema.
Gli studi in eco design mi hanno dato gli strumenti per operare e salvare il paziente e dargli le medicine giuste.

Ti sei laureato con una tesi in Ecodesign dal titolo "la sfida del nuovo millenio", ci riassumi in poche righe la tematica principale?
L’opera trasmette “il MESSAGGIO”che nel mio caso è quello di sensibilizzare e far riflettere anche sulle problematiche dello spreco di risorse e del rispetto dell'ambiente attraverso il servizio del riciclo che diventa strumento a servizio dell'arte.

Che progetti hai per il futuro?
Voglio spaziare in tutti i campi portando il mio messaggio eco, realizzando tutti i miei pensieri creativi.

Dove possono essere acquistati i tuoi prodotti?

Formulas Of Deferred Annuity

The coffee grounds become mobile


Chi ha detto che essere ecologici è un limite per la creatività? A guardare cosa è venuto fuori dalla collaborazione di Re-worked e Axion Polymers si direbbe esattamente il contrario!

Reinventare, sperimentare per trovare il modo di trasformare rifiuti tra i più insospettabili in qualcosa di utile e di nuovo: questa volta è il turno dei fondi del caffè , un prodotto che produciamo quotidianamente in grande quantità, e che queste aziende British exploited as the basis for some parts of furniture such as chairs and tables.

The coffee grounds are mixed together with recycled plastic and a mixture of beans, so that arose on the lastresomiglianti plastic. This new material, the typical color of coffee, has been named Curface .

The legs of tables and chairs, however, have been obtained from local trees that would have been killed anyway, so there was no waste of trees.

Konnex the bookcase Florian Gross


In our era we have oramai di tutte le tecnologie piu' avanzate: molti, però, continuano a preferire il piacere di un buon libro. Da qui, sono molte le proposte di soluzioni modulari per librerie: questa si chiama Konnex , ed è firmata dal giovane designer tedesco Florian Gross.

Presentata per la prima volta presso la fiera Ambient di Francoforte, Konnex è una libreria componibile composta di un set di cubi di dimensioni crescenti, i quali sono dotati ai lati di una serie di tagli: tali tagli permettono all'utente di assemblare i vari moduli e comporre la libreria in base al proprio gusto e alle esigenze di ogni singolo spazio.

Un' idea semplice, ma efficace: quella che si presenta come una serie di cubi, può diventare un particolare oggetto di design, in grado di arredare piacevolmente lo spazio circostante e, qualora si cambi idea, è possibile produrre una nuova composizione.

Inoltre, Konnex non è solo una libreria: assemblando i vari pezzi è possibile ricreare elementi d’arredo da affiancare magari ad una scrivania o delle vere e proprie pareti.

Where Can Get Mesprit In Pokemon Deluge

Interview with Angelo Bucci


Angelo Bucci è un designer abruzzese piuttosto eclettico: non solo interior, ma anche fashion design, designer of yachts and cars, all supported by a very important and valuable attention to research.
E 'starred Fuorisalone two creations fully in line with the sustainable approach: in fact, reflection of Angelo is much more' deep.
listen to what he tells us!

First of all, tell who is Angelo Bucci and what it does.
So, I am an architect specializing in Industrial Design, graduated here in Pescara where I live and work. I am a professional since 2000 and, in addition, do the teacher at the Universidad Europea of \u200b\u200bDesign in Pescara.
job and worked as a designer in many fields, always with great curiosity; this aspect of my job is what I like best. I like discovering new things, humble approach to areas that do not yet know to be able to question and learn.
This same spirit that leads me into the profession tries to return to the boys who follow my classes.

You took part in the Fuorisalone 2010, at the exhibition "Sustainability at full steam, with two products: what and why are they sustainable?
The two products presented at the 2010 Fuorisalone are chair and poltrOOn WALL. WALL
chair is a seat that easily transforms into a framework and vice versa. A new way to "hide" the chairs more ... show! WALL
chair is an environmentally friendly product because in materials (iron and aluminum) recyclable, designed to be easily disassembled and separated for recycling, and last but not least, accomplished through a very short chain. All companies involved are located within a few miles apart. WALL chair was the manifesto of a program, which we started, which is titled "deZign km0", aimed at enhancing regional capacities in the concept of glocalization (from local to global) that, in our opinion, to solve many potrbbe problems of today's markets, making people aware about the rediscovery of production capacity, planning and distribution of their local communities. Even
poltrOOn is part of "deZign km0": a chair with ottoman made entirely of cardboard sections, through joints simple, create a comfortable, durable and sustainable. By partnering with "ico", Corrugated Industry, Pianella (PE), we designed this (and other pieces of furniture belonging to the series cartoon) with the aim not to use adhesive hooks it strange to buy the decomposed product and then build it at home, but, above all, products that can be completely recycled and easily without having to separate anything.

Quale è stata la reazione della gente davanti ai tuoi prodotti?
La reazione davanti a WALL chair è sempre di stupore ed incredulità, è un prodotto che nessuno si aspetta e tutti si stupiscono della semplicità del movimento di apertura e chiusura. Dopo aver vinto un po' di paura, dovuta al sedersi su un disegno, è sempre giudicata anche molto comoda!
poltrOOn affascina molto le persone che, però, non si fidano della tenuta del cartone; di solito il passaggio è che io mi lancio sulla poltrona dimostrando la tenuta della struttura e dopo tutti ci si abbandonano su, soddisfatti e stupiti della inaspettata resistenza e comodità. Tutti reagiscono con stupore scoprendo le caratteristiche del cartone which until then had not understood.

What does it mean for you to be environmentally friendly design?
Eco-sustainability, like other major issues of design, it can be, unfortunately, easily offset by a superficial approach to the topic. A sustainable product is not only a product of cardboard, as a product "designed for all" is not a product for those who have a particular disability, and so I could go on citing the "design for recycling", etc. ..
I believe that environmental sustainability, as the other topics mentioned, should normally be contained in any product projects, eco-sustainability can be many things in one product: material, processing, finishing, recycling at the end of life, but most of all, it must be the message that sensitizes the viewer to that theme. Here
be eco-friendly design means making people aware, through the products, to the issues and reasons of environmental sustainability.


Do you think that environmental sustainability can limit the creativity of the designer?
Absolutely not, like all the other constraints under which the path planning (economic, ergonomic, technicians, etc..) Eco-sustainability is another moment of "applied creativity" that generates the product. The project brings se tutta la cultura del momento in cui viene fatto, quindi, oltre le informazioni sulla tecnica, sull’ergonomia, etc., porta anche informazioni sulla coscienza ecologica che abbiamo in quel momento storico.

Nei tuoi progetti, l'attenzione verso l'ambiente è un punto cardine oppure una condizione accessoria, ma non esseniziale?
E’ solo una cosa naturale, è normale come chiedersi con quale materiale posso fare una cosa, così come mi chiedo se quello che sto disegnando sarà comodo o si potrà impugnare, allo stesso modo mi chiedo come lo riciclo, quale materiale mi conviene usare etc.

Avevi già preso parte a iniziative che si basano sulla sostenibilità environment?
Yes, as I told you, I've organized such initiatives (deZign km0) and I'm happy every time someone calls me or contact me on issues related to sustainability and to those themes, equally important, the design for all ", the" life-cycle design "and" design for recycling ". I am convinced that design has the ability to communicate intent beyond the single project, has the ability to raise public awareness in a gentle, bringing them closer to issues that otherwise seem increasingly distant and do not belong to your world.

plans for the future?
Many projects which, As always, I prefer not to speak for a kind of superstition. On the other hand manifest my many hopes for a future all aware, a design that is less "style" and more "design" a better economic and political situation worldwide e. .. the rest is private!

Want to add something?
addition to a duty to thank the interviewer for his interest, I would add only an appeal to young designers: work hard so that your products are more than just a fad, make sure that they become manifest an idea intellectual, critical project that represents you and the world in which you live, to resolve something that will make people think.

May 9: National Day of the International Cycling Week

Cycling is synonymous with health, simplicity and enthusiasm, as the primary means of locomotion that every child receives in their life, a symbol of eco contrast to the frenzy of urban life and thanks to pollution ' absence of toxic emissions to the air.

The Day of the Bicycle is an occasion for celebration and re-appropriation by the population of their cities, too often the prey of the chaotic traffic and pollution and from which you depart over the weekend to "get away", but also a time of revival of urban social space.

Pain During Ovulation

Interview with Bianca Cappello


Paper Fashion is an exciting project, conducted in collaboration with Comieco and some prestigious academies of fashion and design fashion and sustainability, and environmentally friendly fashion, here are two guidelines of this exhibition that, after Rome, arrives in Milan from April 29 at Palazzo Isimbardi.
The protagonist, as the name itself, is the paper, of all types, through strange and different techniques that are processed to give life to clothes, jewelry and objects entirely recyclable.

addition to the content, stands (structures in paper and / or cardboard, lightweight, portable, mountable, reusable and adaptable to any environment exhibition) will be in line with the underlying concept of the exhibition which aims to bring to light, developing in a very new and attractive, the current issues of eco-sustainability, recovery of cellulose-based materials and environmental compatibility. We talked with

Bianca Cappello, curator of the exhibition.

Six curator of the exhibition Fashion Paper, we explain in a nutshell is this?
Fashion Paper is a multi-project, was created to bring to the general public on the theme of the Charter as universal material. Using paper from all sources, the most valuable card to paper recycling, we tried to explain to the general public fontamentale echo the theme of sustainability while providing young talents of some of the major Italian cultural institutions the opportunity to become visible in a Featured exception.

Among the exhibits, a series of gray packing paper with the technique of quilling. What technique is it?
Quilling is an ancient technique, born in France in the eighteenth century and was used by nuns, often enclosed, to create beautiful ornaments for the sacred relics. The technique then spread and evolved in myriad of different applications, from African paper beads to design a wide variety of achievements.

Which, among the exhibits, you hit more 'and why? More
that my favorite opera, I would say and point out the fact that among the more than 120 works on display, all made exclusively in paper and cardboard, there is not a technique for color, shape and concept looks like another . They are all amazing creations and unique at the same time. The paper challenged the students and pulled out of each artist a unique, original and ingenious. Surely, however, was also critical of the work wise professors Angela Nocentini, Maria Teresa lighting, Edward Malagigi, Bruna Marchesan, Luisa and Roberto Zanon Boots that have been able, in their own way, interpret and direct the creative urges of its pupils.

In their learning process at school, students are heading to respect the environment?
certainly schools that have worked on the project AFOL Milan, Accademia di Belle Arti in Florence, Accademia di Brera in Milan, Accademia Albertina in Turin at a good level, but you can not make a speech because the general reality that we are talking about are the situations are many and varied. The eco design e le discipline volte all'ecologia e al riciclo sono un passo importante per portare gli studenti -gli adulti ed i genitori del futuro- a capire i materiali, la loro origine e la loro destinazione finale e divenire coscienti della realtà che ci circonda. Questo vale per la carta ma anche per la plastica, i metalli e ogni altro prodotto della nostra Società dei Consumi.
L'interesse che Fashion Paper ha suscitato è sicuramente un campanello importante per capire quanto il mondo contemporaneo abbia voglia di scoprire alternative per migliorare l'ambiente in cui viviamo.

Che risultati vuole raggiungere questa iniziativa?
Grazie anche alla Provincia di Milano e alla Provincia di Firenze che da subito hanno sostenuto il progetto, sentiamo di aver fatto un buon lavoro nel momento in cui il messaggio che passa al pubblico riesce ad avere una ripercussione positiva sull'ambiente in cui viviamo, creando sempre nuova e più profonda consapevolezza nella percezione del mondo e dei materiali che ci circondano.

Nel mondo della moda, l'ecosostenibilità è già un punto cardine oppure c'è ancora molto da lavorare?
Sicuramente l'eco sostenibilità è un campo di applicazione che si rende sempre più necessario, non solo nel campo della moda. Per portare le coscienze a comprendere e ad apprendere l'importanza del rispetto ambientale ci sono molti mezzi di comunicazione e forse quello dell'arte and fashion are the most attractive and immediately acceptable. In Germany, the paper is a popular material for many decades and used for purposes the most diverse in Italy excellent artists and designers are working on for several years and the interest in paper and paperboard has been growing exponentially especially in recent times. We must thank the pioneers of this research if we can now enjoy the benefit of a broad audience.

Strip Club What To Expect

Karimoku New Standard, eco-design wood


Furniture Japanese and European design, the winning combination, carried on stage by the Japanese Karimoku to Fuorisalone 2010, to design a collection chesposa and technology, and achieves admirable results in terms of comfort and sophistication of products, quality and environmental sustainability.

In order to promote the maintenance and conservation of forests and increase biodiversity in the long run, for all the products in the collection Karimoku New Standard has been used wood from thinning of the forests of Japan, a common waste product forestry. The vanguard of

Karimoku leading Japanese manufacturer of wooden furniture certainly has not forgotten the tradition of Japan's wood processing company, in fact, from the Edo period, carries on the centuries-old art of carpentry, combining it with today's technology tools more 'advanced, from timber cut crowding the small forest undergrowth of Japan were born: the original design and eco-friendly, ideal for homes lit and ventilated, like open spaces.



Under the artistic direction of Teruhiro Yanagihara, Karimoku brings together some of European design talent of the caliber of Scholten & Baijings , Sylvain Willenz and Big-Game , asking use their skills to make a contribution to the history of Japanese mobile, creating original furniture and very contemporary. It 's the first step, leading to the birth of the collection presented to the New Standard gallery Suzy Shammah, within the Fuorisalone 2010.



The pieces in the collection are designed to take advantage of the limited space of existing homes and adapt to individual styles of city dwellers. They are made to last and fill the hearts of those who possess them, faithful to the credo " if you use a 100 year old tree, creating a mobile worthy of his age."

Here are some examples: 'Nook coat, designed by Yanagihara, is modular and fits the needs of different living spaces; Addison is the single piece to be positioned in a corner, to the set of four, more space for 'large. The chair-sofa Halfway , spacious and comfortable for a, more 'close to two, but allows the couple to feel close. The stool-table Stools, two floors, is versatile for different needs: it is precisely the stool, but can also be table if you support something above. Signs is instead the polyhedral coat of Big Game, whose arms can rotate in and out from the stem to form the signs of an archaic alphabet, and a hidden magnetic mechanism allows the arm to return to its original position when not in use.


bears the signature of the Scholten & Baijings Color Wood tables that combine the tradition of Japanese wood pattern printed and Design Team has created the Torii chair, inspired by the sacred ground of the traditional bow Shinto and the chair Ren, back down to keep a straight posture according to the custom in Japan.


Inspired by the cartoon is instead sitting Homerun , designed by Belgian designer Sylvain Willenz, halfway between craftsmanship and simple lines with a refined and elegant design.

Infine, Pile converte una icona industriale, il pallet, in mobili modulari basic che si adattano ai bisogni individuali. In piedi, sdraiato o impilato, assume differenti funzioni, da scaffale a tavolo basso.
