| @waldorf, Perhaps I'm ignorant because I avoid the stuff, but aren't all vodkas fundamentally the same? I understand that there are differences in proportions of alcohol to water, but... When it comes to honoring our dear old Auntie, a Quaalude (or four) or a bong hit (or four) seems somehow more appropriate. | |||||

| I certainly did not intend... I certainly did not intend to stir the emotions I tapped into with the music reference. I agree that there are both legal and practical differences with product design and music. My only point was that one small distinction with non-liscensed products (which as Koen pointed out are not illegal like most downloaded music) is that the designer, or his or her hiers, does not receive a liscensing fee. This is an issue that is rarely raised in the liscensed/non-liscensed debate on this page. I feel that since this forum is dedica ... | |||||

Many religions, including Christianity (although not to the degree of Hinduism), are pretty broad confederations. Christians don't all know each other, nor is there a licensing board to determine who can call himself a Christian. (Off the top of my head, I can think of two groups that may or may not be Christian: Mormons and Unitarians.) * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * Well, I don't perso ... | |||||

| Part 1 Re: crankyd. - "...does anyone hate poinsettias as much as I do?" I guess that depends on how much you hate them, but I can't imagine that I'm too far behind. - "There is no "last group" out there free of being disparaged." That's a good strawman you've set up there, but it's not what I wrote. I've enclosed in asterisks the important differences: I advanced the *notion* (by which I mean it's a throwaway comment designed to get people thinking) that there were 2 groups that it was still *socially acceptable* to mock, *regardless of truth*. Now, you can ... | |||||
| Scandinavian Wing-back armchair identification. | 1 Relevance | 5 years ago | jbjonboy | Identification | |
| I need help to identify this chair bought in Australia. It is well made with nice wool fabric and teak and maybe Danish oak. I can't find any makers mark on it. The back is cantilevered from the base and is not connected to the armrest. The only similar chair I can find on google is by Louis van Teeffelen but this has differences. Thanks in advance.

| ... differences. Some are deleted enirely, some are substituted with incorrect ones. "?"'s are most often inserted for commas which does confuse the flow of text. This cannot be helped though. Spelling errors must also be forgiven as we have no spell-checker function and not everyone speaks English as a first language. Finally some folks appear to be abysmal typists. So can we get on with it and just accept that the quality of our prose will forever be lacking? | |||||

| cont. The differences can be described in terms of specific gravity, viscosity, erosion of the form as a result of abrasive characteristics of the material, need for repetitivity of the process etc. etc. In doing so, the designer learns to think about and to use technology in a more integrated way leaving "space" for his own or other innovations. He or she also learns to consider technologies that were not traditionally part of the transformation technics of one particular group of materials. I know I am stating the obvious. Extrusion for instance is as comm ... | |||||

| ... welded on. The small angle on the floor and on the seat requires a stiffness that can't be reached with ordinary steel. It is all consistent with the fact that only two were required for the original use: to seat the king an queen of Spain when they visited the Mies designed German pavilion at the Barcelona world fair. Although more recent design icons do not have that excuse, they often have in common that they were not designed in function of mass production technologies. It often makes them un-necessary expensive. Cost in this case is not the result of q ... | |||||

| Salamander: nice to see someo... Salamander: nice to see someone in the same boat 🙂 However, from my so far limited knowledge, I'd certainly steer clear of something with differences so obvious that you can see them even on a brochure photo... I'm surprised the shop is claiming this is Vitra. I think the most convincing case so far to be made for a company that has tried to stick to the original concept is probably Steelform. As mentioned, I was impressed that they've gone even to the lengths to produce the matte sand-moulded pedestal; this gives me some h ... | |||||

| authenticity It was somewhat intentionally that I overlooked HP's question: "...can a designer disengage from his culture..." I did it for two reasons: First of all I have been made aware a few times that my lengthy answers are an abuse of the hospitality so generously given by DA. Secondly I would not be able to give a better answer than the ones given by Michael Baxendall in "Patterns of intention" more specifically the seven page chapter called: Truth and other cultures (Yale University Press, New haven 1985)....and than came Azurechicken and answered on ... | |||||

It's a matter of definition of design and as far as I can remember (and I can go back to the Bruges congress and the adoption of Thomas Maldonado's definition by ICSID) I have never seen a definition of design that would exclude surgical instruments... Furthermore, and I think that this is the core of the question. Whenever all the known functional criteria, the efficiency of material use, the technology, the distribution and packaging, in short, ... | |||||

I can't quote him literally because I would not know where to find it but I am sure it was Aaron Copland (yes, jewish and gay!...so much for my germanistic (sic.) mind) who discribed the ideal musical audience as: "Having the knowledge of a professional but the curiosity and openness of an amateur". Apart from problems related to trash-talk which, I agree are as un-pleasant as a bad smell, but as easy to get rid of (just open the window and let it blow away), I think that the main problem in discussing design is the lack of common langu ... | |||||
