gravity stool_concept_ winner of the german design award @ DMY

the dmy international design festival was once again amazing: here is my personal highlight and winners of the festival price. with more than 35700 visitors, the 10th edition of the dmy festival as well as the exhibition of the german design award »designpreis der bundesrepublik deutschland« have been a great success.

„gravity stool“ by jólan van der wiel (the netherlands) was one of the 3 winning concepts_magnetic fields in the machine, in opposition to one another, determines the final shape of the gravity stool:

…lineapelle bologna_highlights and impressions

the summer 13 lineapelle  edition in bologna was very positive….and highly inspiring, even in a time of rising raw hide prices. as we did a research for clients on the fair, we can`t publish a full report here. but as usual we would like to share some ideas and innovation news from the fair.

in general it was visible that italy had a very tough winter season in the retail business. as in all european fashion centers, also in bologna and verona the high streets are more and more the same: same brands, similar products….concerning trend spotting you have to invest some extra time to find the „hidden gems“. two examples are the amazing stores MACONDO and the amazing new concept store WOODEN ( via fama 15) both in the back streets of verona.


especially the WOODEN store offers a great japanese meets italian craftsmen-ship orientated selection of up and coming brands plus a in house collection. great and friendly guys with a sense for minimalism and style without chichi !!! check them out on facebook: WOODEN
