| Dear Koen, by showing these... Dear Koen, by showing these images, I wanted to show various existing typologies. Single or multiple candles - fixed or mobile - wooden, plastic, ceramic, glass, metal candelsticks. They are zillion of different candlesticks. I am not a professional, but this is how I proceed before setting on the paper some ideas for new products. I first take note of all the objects that I know and I try to find the one that answers my needs as a user. If I do not find that object then I determine the aspects which I would like to see improve ... | |||||

| it is civility, not knowlege that should count here. i sat and read posts here for a very long time before i ever considered a post. i was very taken aback by some of the comments posted in different threads. when i post i am searching for knowelege or information or offering some. this implies that if i am fortunate, someone will correct me. however there is a large difference between being corrected with a tone of superiority or indignation and without it. it doesn seem to work in a printed forum like this to be heated like i might be with a friend in pers ... | |||||
| cont, Eames house | 1 Relevance | 19 years ago | LRF | General discussion | |
| cont, Eames house Architecturally, the greatest difference between the Eames and the Entenza houses is that the former is a frankly exposed structural cage while the latter conceals structure and is, instead, a play of flat vertical and horizontal planes. Where the Eames house, for example, emphasizes the "weightlessness" of the roof by exhibiting the delicate tracery of open-truss joists, the Entenza house has a continuous ceiling of narrow wood strips to hide the structure. The trick in the Eames house is to make the ceiling disappear; the trick in the Ent ... | |||||

| great article on Eames | 1 Relevance | 19 years ago | LRF | General discussion | |
| ... EAMES & EERO SAARINEN, Architects PAUL LAMPORT, General Contractor The most important point about his house for John Entenza is that it is so much like the Eames house next door (p. 90). The next most important point is that it is also very different. At first reading, the paragraph above may make very little sense. Yet, in reality, it does make sense: the two houses are technological twins but architectural opposites. Both were built from the same standardized building ingredients; but program, siting, orientation and esthetic preference have made them as ... | |||||

Vivienne and James, your posts are some of what I enjoy the most on this forum (Vivienne's exchange with girlygirl, with restraint and composure, very nice). Vivienne, I agree that the differences in opinion make this forum fun. The difference is, you handle a difference in opinion with good nature and composure. There just have been several recent threads where some have reacted to differences in op ... | |||||

| Hi dcwilson Before I go to bed...I am giving four conferences tomorrow, four times the same subject in four times i1/2 hour, but adapted to different age groups in the local school. The youngest ones are half a century younger than I am so I better be AWAKE! It might not come as a surprise to you but this is an old discussion. Designers, industrial designers that is, have always been quite clear on the difference between design and architecture.(See Arthur Pulos "American Design Ethics" tome 1&2, or any other designer for that matter. Architects seem to find ... | |||||
| P.S. | 1 Relevance | 20 years ago | NULL NULL | General discussion | |
| P.S. DO get samples from Kyson. I've found that the actual hides rarely look anything like the photos as far as color goes. I think it's because the sheen reflects whatever light is in the room. And maybe it's the difference in monitors. I usually request one or two that look good and then ask for whatever else they think might meet my needs; i.e., very dark brown, pebble or no pebble, low gloss, no two-tone, 50 sq ft minimum. Another P.S. I have done a chair/ottoman with 45 square feet but prefer to get 50. That usually allows enough for a mistake if t ... | |||||
| Paint vs Stain | 1 Relevance | 19 years ago | LuciferSum | General discussion | |
| Paint vs Stain SDR - There is a significant difference in the way that paints and dyes affect the color of wood. Paint is opaque pigment suspended in a fluid vehicle, which allows it to be spread. When it is applied the pigment sits on the surface and forms an opaque layer of color. Think about the dye as you would a dyed fabric. The color may fade over time, but it will never scratch off in the same manner that paint will. The aniline dye will work more like a stain, seeping into the wood and changing the actual color. Thus, as the wood wears over time, t ... | |||||

| ... to form an eutecticum, so I will haver to do a number of tests. (An eutecticum is when two or more materials together have a melting point that is lower than the melting point of each of the components. Typically cobalt and Silicium are highly refractory (resisting more than 1500 degrees C.) but together they melt at less than 1000 C.) These minerals usually colour the moulds so I will have to make a set for the white vases and a different one for the black version. In any case I would make several moulds (in the industry you can have hundreds of moulds of ... | |||||
| Enamel on steel | 1 Relevance | 19 years ago | koen | General discussion | |
| Enamel on steel is not very different from enamel or glaze on ceramics. The only difference is that the enamel on steel is fired at a lower temperature and the shrink of the enamel is adjusted to the shrink and expansion of steel. Mild steel sheet has been enameled for centuries, especially in central european countries but otherwise all over Europe. The low temperature allows for brighter colours but it was environmental regulations in Denmark that reduced Copco's vivid colour assortment (combined with white interiors) of the sixties to milder coulours in ... | |||||
| Aged and Destroyed | 1 Relevance | 20 years ago | LuciferSum | General discussion | |
| Aged and Destroyed I've heard that you can also use Simichrome polish to get the chrome bright and shiny. I just used steel wool with no additional polish or oil. I started slowly and lightly and worked over each speck of corrosion until it was bright and shiny. The finish is a brilliant mirror finish with no scuffs or dullness. I wouldnt go so far as to rechrome them. But there's a difference between a little age, and totally a mess. Mine were totally a mess and the cleanup was 100% worth it! I'll try to post photos of the before and after. | |||||
