The stores have to be competative and sell a barcelona for a few dollars above what you can get it on the internet.. but with heat, light and power factered in it makes it very difficult ...if a store makes 200 on tht chair they are making a killing . that is why if you see a really good reproduction at this store they are expensive . Euraway in Dallas sells the fakeiest looking Barcelonas I have ever seen they look like they wipped them up them self. There wassley chair ...

	While I had to do other things... dcwilson completed some of my thoughts. I am grateful for that becaus eit is so much more readable. Before continuing the discussion I would like to come back to my experience with focus groups as being unreliable. Some years ago, suspecting that too many factors influenced the outcome of a focus group, I repeated focus groups on the same subject, just altering the order in which the participants were seated, changing the balance between oral and written answers and changing the sequense of the questions. In doing that I was ...
	CAMP	1 Relevance	19 years ago	Gustavo	General discussion
	... closely related notion of kitsch, camp has traditionally been viewed as hard to define. The terms "camp" and "kitsch" are often used interchangeably; both may relate to art, literature, music, or any object that carries an aesthetic value. However, "kitsch" refers specifically to the object proper, whereas "camp" is a mode of performance. Thus, a person may consume kitsch intentionally or unintentionally. Camp, however, as Susan Sontag observed, is always a way of consuming or performing culture "in quotation marks." (link 1) Gerrit, you said there is an ex ...

	Reply from KDW like the last one you posted, although I would not put the extra curves in the conical shape...but that's a personal thing I guess. I wanted to show you an alternative that is based on the same idea but with double walls and less deep (depth is always more difficult)

	and why don't we let some... and why don't we let some creativity at the user? instead of making a freeform divider in plastic or ceramic; we could give them a steelwire that they can bend like they want (something like those tinny steelwires surrounded by plastic, i don't know the name for it but overhere we use that to close the garbagebags); or another idea make the base flat; it is then for dried flowers and we give a rope, then the user can use the rope to make some kind of hinges in the holes, pff difficult to explain; see the croquis.

	... with the vase, it will still be usable but not very attractive. If I have a bowl that breaks entirely it is an easy decision to try and fix it or throw it away. I think this would be difficult if this design is produced as a single piece object. I think rods hardwood/glass/ceramic should sit inside the vase inside individual depressions....this is my last idea, over to anyone else. http://messmate.blogspot.com/

	... enough to have a draft angle in each hole. Even than, shrink makes it difficult to produce. But on paper everything works so this was SDR's proposal of round holes. The fact that the lower holes are now formed by two walls creates small pockets that will be difficult to clean. The other detail I have to reveal is that I can only make one hexagone in the middle 6 hexagones around that one and 12 hexagones on the outside. The system does not allow me to make, as Gerrit rightfully reminded us of, an extra series of hexagones on the outer rim. If we want to inc ...
	Dear Heath	1 Relevance	20 years ago	koen	General discussion
	Dear Heath As far as production is concerned both proposals are equally difficult/easy to produce. The right one has a slight advantage in the way the top rim is finished, but even that is marginal. As far sa the reference to the Koolhaas terminal is concerned, I think it is very interesting but as Martin points out, there are a number of products like that, all more or less derived (Paulanna would say copied) from the Kartell umbrella stand, with round (easy to make) holes. Koolhaas' "windows" are not round and that would I think bring us too close to one o ...

	... curve like that would require some help with steam or hot water. But a three-ply is only 3-4 mm thick and not suitable for a backrest. It was not unusual at the time to laminate a few layers of three-ply together on the frame but even that is doubtful. For a moment I thought that because of the subsequrent involvement of Ernest Race in Isokon, he might have been chosen because a.o. things, his knowledge of bended wood...but the changes he mader to the bookshelf was to take out the bended wooden element... Technically spoken I can not see how this rather ele ...

	... Some have asked themselves why I would not be able to do a rather simple geometrical shape like the large loops proposed by Patrick, but have no problem with the complexity of his "random" string pattern. The answer is simply that I would not be able to un-mould a geometrical shape without getting deformations that would be seen right away as a production flaw. Whereas a random pattern would be equaly difficult to un-mould, if not more difficult, but nobody is able to see if some of the defromations are intentional or not. In other words every piece would b ...

	... interesting because it anticipates the reaction of the consumer which is precious. "And many of the design objects that likes to designers are not so - best seller -- to general public" this sentence is very important and I could often check it. Koen and Gerrit are right, it is time of specify and guide the project. I will try to do it synthetically: - Without a large approval and taking into account the relevant remarks of users, one should certainly not cling to my original proposal (which also has the inconvenience to be technically unrealizable). I will ...

	... offer us one of your famous solos? Your wish to live the discussion in real time and to be able to interact on the same drawing is tempting, but there are not only technological constraints that would make this exercise difficult. The contributors are mostly Australian, Canadian, American and European people who live at different time zones and are not able to get away for this exercise at the same time. In addition, even if some of you are very skilled, it is often necessary to take some time to think before reacting and making new proposals. And finally, ...

	... what is interesting in this exercise is that it shows the limiting factors that a designer has to take into account. Koen has precisely defined the possible materials for this vase (porcelain, stoneware or any other ceramic material), it is to us to find the solutions that take into account the requirements of these materials and their implementation. I find the last idea of Heath interesting and I suppose that wooden rods could enter the category of 'standard off the shelf parts' mentioned by Koen. However I have a small preference for a project which woul ...

	... coherence. I will have to come back with some technical aspects because as is, the vase would be extremely difficult (which is my take on impossible) to make in quantity. My hope is that we can at least produce it at reasonable cost so that everybody that has contributed to it and interested bystanders can buy one.
