| I wanted to send my | 1 Relevance | 19 years ago | koen | General discussion | |
| I wanted to send my contribution, wrote an extensive reply and by making a typo mistake in my password I lost everything...and it's a little bit too late to start all over again. Maybe I should say this: Each time this subject comes up there seems to be a lot of confusion about the different legislations that regulate teh protection of intellectual property. I am sorry barrympls, but you are wrong in assuming that there is a similar protection for product design as there is for Pink Floyd (protected under the copyright law 50 years after the last day of the ... | |||||

| ... states -- from clothing to stereo equipment to handtools -- we were once a culture of high quality, long-lasting goods available to the working man. One noteworthy example might be in how the Japanese rabidly covet what were once very pedestrian everyday articles here in the West. The Japanese emulate the old designs, even going so far as to buy up the old tooling and dies etc, but it does not seem to sate their appetite for the original articles. There were designers behind these goods, too -- though far more anonymous than Arne Jacobsen. So is it about in ... | |||||

| ... cycle, it is exposed to a few, or to many environmental insults deform it and alter its trajectory of development. Vulgar (blank)ism. You fill in the -ism and I think you will see what I am talking about. If the -ism has a very short life, i.e., if it dies in youth, it changes very little until its sudden expiration. If it has a long life and survives lots of traumatic contextual events, it can become a rather bizarre caricature of itself along the way. Think of Elizabethan Tragedy from whence Shakespeare sprang. It was an unself-conscious -ism; that is, Sh ... | |||||

| Size and quantity.... | 1 Relevance | 21 years ago | koen | General discussion | |
| Size and quantity.... or quantity and size in order of importance. dies are expensive and can only be amortized over large quantities, so if you only need small quantities... Size might be an issue. A full casting of the commander in chief on his horse would take a huge die... More seriously are questions about temperature resistance (aluminum. bronze, zinc alloys etc cast well in steel dies, but what about stainless steel and steel? disa (a prominent Danish manufacturer of casting equipement (Disamatics) makes machines that press automatically sand moulds, ... | |||||

| ... of time=money spent to create dies for all the steel and plastic parts that go into all the models of autos made each year, with frequent re-stylings and new model lines. (GM must have set some sort of record in 1959, when for the third year in a row they replaced the entire model line-up with new bodies for all five makes! Even after allowing for shared body shells and other components, this still seems like an extravagant investment.) I'm hoping to find references filling in the history of, say, American auto body design and construction 1930-1965, the ... | |||||
| I cannot justify Knoll´s price... | 1 Relevance | 22 years ago | NULL NULL | General discussion | |
| ... of you are pretty ignorant, considering that not everyone has your budget to buy Knoll, Rolex etc. I like to see some reflections and thoughts on the following: Why should people with a certain budget, not have the same right to enjoy classic design furniture? Is design only for a few so-called immortals? Should not everyone have the same right to enjoy quality products and in general quality life? I somehow find it sarcastic: we're talking about design furniture and the other half of the world dies due to wars, hunger and all kinds of diseases. Think about ... | |||||

| A+ homework Damn Olive that is a thorough and extremely well thought out approach. You have done your homework. All homes shold be built to this standard. I am very efficient but not off the grid and while I respect the environment and it's resources during difficult moments (utility failure) I use a Caterpillar diesel power generation system. I also prefer "defensive plants" in landscaping that have the potential to cause serious bodily injury (puncture wounds from large thorns) to undesirables. I should always be comfortable, even when others are not. | |||||

| ... that don't have a worthless drawer underneath, substitute a goofy pizza oven in its place, or a goofy small oven on the side, thus destroying any chance one has of having an oven large enough to put a truly huge paella pan with a long handle inside it? To their credit, designers have figured out recently, after, what is it, a century, that the grates ought to span the entire top of the range, so pots and pans and skillets can be slid about the way the god of cooking always intended cooks should. So why does every oven have to look either like a phoney resta ... | |||||
| The ascent of smallness... | 1 Relevance | 19 years ago | dcwilson | General discussion | |
| ... small again, even though in comparison it is really only stunningly inefficient, not small. The BMW Mini was designed to look small, while the Honda Fit was designed, like Sir Alec's Mini, to be vastly small; i.e., as small as possible outside and big as possible inside. Now the Mini is a small car. Some engineer just chopped the legroom out of a small car with room. But it is a small car made to look like a Mini, or micro car. Same for the Fiat 500. Small, but made to look micro. It seems the car companies have discovered something. People would rather se ... | |||||
