‘Holey poley’, a modular daybed concept designed by australian-born, copenhagen-based furniture design student clinton stewart, is composed solely of wooden poles and interchangeable cushions, adaptable to a range of seating configurations. A primary wool mattress is gridded with a series of holes, into which short and long poles are inserted to function as legs for the unit. Atop the the longer poles, users can place one of a series of cushion models to create armrests or seating divisions.

ford EVOS concept car
31 AugThe EVOS concept car introduces a new design direction for the global car manufacturer ford. debuting at the 2011 frankfurt motor show, the vehicle is an interpretation of a fastback bodystyle design, featuring four gull-wing doors which open to reveal a four-seat layout. The concept offers a bold red driver’s seat and the vision of unprecedented driver interface. the two rear seat passengers host dedicated touch-screen displays to interact with the vehicle and individually adjustable sports seats.

The concept’s technology experience embraces a new generation of driver interaction and awareness, in which the seamless connectivity between the vehicle and the driver’s ‘personal cloud’ of information is the heart of the vision for its capabilities. with information from the cloud, the vehicle is able to provide the same connected lifestyle the driver experiences at home or the office. the car knows the driver, automatically adapting its handling, steering and engine control to deliver a dynamic driving experience. drawing from a detailed understanding of the driver’s preferences and habits, the EVOS concept car combines this personal information with additional data from the could, such as the individual’s work schedule and local traffic or weather conditions. this information provides a personalized and seamless sophistication as the driver transitions in and out of the car. 
Outfitted with advanced air quality sensors and filtration systems to help allergies, the ford EVOS concept car is location aware, and can access air quality from the could, proactively suggesting a healthier route to the driver’s end destination. The vehicle can even intuitively simplify the appearance of the instrument panel to display only necessary gauge information and switch the driver’s connected smartphone to ‘do not disturb’ mode in order to keep their focus on the road. The vision for the care is a state-of-the-art lithium-ion plug-in hybrid (PHEV) powertrain providing the same next-generation performance and fuel economy. ford’s ‘powersplit’ hybrid architecture allows the electric motor and petrol engine to work together or separately to maximize efficiency. Overall, the concept car measures 4.50m (177in) long, 1.97m (77in) wide and 1.36m (53in) high, with a wheelbase of 2.74m (108in).
The ford EVOS concept car won’t officially be seen driving on the road, but many of the design ideas will be utilized in upcoming ford products.

Parasite farm
15 Aug

Parasite farm’ by Charlotte Dieckmann and Nils Ferber parasite farm is a indoor compost system that can be integrated into your living space.
Designers’ own words:
“Today 88% of germany’s population lives in cities and only 5.8% of the country’s cultivated land is farmed ecologically. While most fruits and vegetables have become available all year round we are loosing touch with how it was grown, harvested and transported. the expensive, highly compacted urban area doesn’t leave much room for agricultural practices and not everybody has access to a balcony or garden. our answer to that question is the ‘parasite farm’, a system that enables you to compost your biological waste, produce humus soil and to grow your own vegetables and herbs – all within your apartment! to integrate with your interior and your habits both the vermicompost system and the plant boxes use existing furniture as infrastructure. The parasitic objects are fed by your food scraps and provide you – in turn – with fresh vegetables. we hope that this small-scale nutrient cycle makes people discover the fascination of growing you own food and evokes questions about the current industrial food production and possible alternatives”.
