| There seems to be a way.... because soem people did it. Whenever it happened the founders of D.A. did not explain how it could be done, so I assume that it is not part of their intentions. In design, the normal process of trying to know "what people think" is to produce it and put it on the market. I know it sound a little bit harsh, but that's reality. As you can read in the different "Barcelona" threads, availability, price, quality etc. have a big influence on the product. To find out if someone "likes" what you have to offer, you will have to know these ... | |||||

| ... the shape of the break with the shape of the chip, in your excellent photos.) The problem with laminate is that it is a layered material -- think of slate, or plywood -- and when it breaks, some of the layers are torn out at different lengths, and have to be "rewoven" to fit perfectly back together. This, in part, is what makes it difficult or impossible to have the re-glued piece fit flush with the original surface. The solution is to selectively remove and discard some of the under-layers from one or both sides of the break, wherever this flaky layering ... | |||||
| Replacement parts... | 1 Relevance | 22 years ago | blake | General discussion | |
| Replacement parts... Joe, I searched pretty extensively without success for a below-retail source for the LC4. (Though in the end, the MOMA holiday sale enabled me to get it for hundreds under list.) All that said, I suspect you'll have a difficult time locating replacement parts (made by Cassina) for below list price. | |||||

| cont. Very Euclidian in the beginning, and dominated by what was seen as the "language of the machine", but slowly moving into a more elaborate and a more diversified form vocabulary. The result as we see it today has very few links with the arts of today. As been pointed out in this forum several times, some designers were or became successful sculptures and some minimalist artist became excellent designers. Another link are the hybrid works very well exemplified by the "sun-machine" of Ray and Charles Eames, a combination of design inspired by both Calder, ... | |||||

| ... months. Although, I feel that Alessi does a much better job at introducing objects that have a longer shelf life. Part of this perception may only be attributed to their higher price point. What I do enjoy about these products is that it is a market still in the infant stages. I enjoy the unique forms, simple functionality and most important.......the personalization these products offer to the user. It is extremely difficult for a company to design this type of product (niche market) and remain profitable. In the future, I see companies like Alessi/ Ko ... | |||||
| wearing | 1 Relevance | 22 years ago | koen | General discussion | |
| wearing ..is probably one of the most overlooked qualities of product design. Some products seem to gain so much through use were others prepare themselves for the dump. Especially plastics seem to have a difficult time when aging. Sometimes it is simply ignorance by the designers. In the late sixties when I went to designschool radii between two flat plastic surfaces were a obvious no-no. We went to great technological challenges at these pre-CNC times to make the transition parabolic. The only reason was that a parabolic edge wears so much better than a se ... | |||||

| Thanks Koen, a lot to think... Thanks Koen, a lot to think about. As a designer in this time do you feel dislocated? Could you describe your ideology? Should finding this common ground be an act of intuition or ( my finger DO NOT want to type these words)...market research.I've tried these questions on myself and find them difficult to answer. | |||||
