IDEA Award 2007

IDEA (International Design Excellence Award)
one of the most important design award (especially in the usa)

the different taste (derection) between IDEA , IF or Red-Dot, i think, we can betoken it as the difference between us-design and euro-design.

if u look at the idea, u will find, their design is not as clean, as perfect as european design,
HOWEVER there are more new, breakthrough ideas behind the design.
they try to be more progressive...(maybe it is just the us-character...i dont know)

anyway, it is very interesting to view it ;DDD

Want+Waste

If u ever cooked, u will like it ;D
while cooking i always produce a lot of waste.
how can i keep every thing clean, is alway my target.
waste+want simple, but it helps (i guess)

cheer to all hobby cooks

we cooked, drank, sang, celebrated

this was the first trial of the designer "jamie oliver" (me ;P)

yesterday we have celebrated for our first master ( kristin ) and the birthday of grit at merian and uli's apartment.(it is really a coooool apartment ) i have cooked super hot spicy chicken curry... see the photo below...well at least it was delicious XD. i think, i have raised the drink consuming in my town...




.....and delicious ice ;D...i love sweeties


then we sang the whole night...let's rock...viva singstars XD


take that... back for good


nirvana...



it was super fuuuuuuun ;D

Red Dot design award selection : Ipod for water proof

many people like to listen to music in the bathroom. the idea here is to bring a simple ipod docking into the bathroom. i guess this one is just a design concept from nova design.

nova is a taiwan based design firm, which designs from idea to engineering and production.

a new scenario created a new product. not bad

Reddot design award 2007

once a year, red-dot design award (one of the most important design awards) nominates remarkable designs of the year. the winners of 2007 are already online now.

as usaul i would like to designate some remarkble products of me.
the first one is : sony pcm-d1 portable linear recorder


the design is not really a milestone. the reason why i chose it is it's character. if we look at the whole market, we'll see, the simpilicity dominates the design of a digital media product.

but this one shows the beauty of complexity and professional. u feel, this guy is something different. i like it!

if u ask me, who is my favor designer.
u will get this answer :
"Jamie oliver is absolut one of my favor designers!" no kidding XD

u see it, smell it, touch it, taste it. all of the sences are comming together.

i am a person, who really like to eat and try.
to share food and eat with friends is really gret.

Shoji Computer Concept by ZIBA

people asked me, why i like shoji. "it is nothing special."

well, it is really special for me. if u image, u are a designer, how would u design a desktop?
normally a designer will pick a box-like volume to design the shape.

but this concept, shoji, has brocken the box.

that's why i like it.

well done, meral and daniel (ziba)

Flexible OLED

this is a extreme thin flexible display from Sony

this technology is really amazing! if this OLED mature enough,
there will be a revolution for CT industry.

2 big News in Design Branch

there are really 2 big surpricing News in german (european) design world:

the first one:

Nico Michler (37), Gerd Helmreich (50), Michael Lanz (41) and Claude Toussaint (37), 4 long term employees of designafairs, just bought the once biggest industrial design firm from siemens.

in 2005 i have worked for designafairs as intern. at that time, designafairs was full of power, energy and especially sucess. nomberous design awards, big clients, good salary. but since siemens mobile was sold, designairs suffered the most difficult time they ever had.

but now i am more confident for it's future. as Mr. Lanz said, from now on, they have more flexibility. they can work for any customers. Specially, Nico, ist really a excellent designer in this area. u can hardly find a better one.

i wish designafairs good luck.


The second big news is:

from now on, ziba design europe, calls SIGNCE!!!!!

as i read it, my face is just like this -> O.O"
i was so surprised, that they decided to go their own way.

ziba europe was always the best "hourse power" for ziba portland.their relationship was very close. sometimes they even share their projects with each other. i know many designers from both sides. they all do their job very well, good ideas, precise design language. and especially, they are all nice guys and enjoy their life very much ;D.
now the munich company desided to develope their own future.

i wish all friends there , good luck, too

cheers
