Lixeira inteligente e ecológica



Pensando em… lixeira!?

Sacolas plásticas vem causando polêmica nos últimos meses, pelo menos na cidade de São Paulo onde, desde de janeiro, é proibido distribuir estas em supermercados. Mas e aí, como substituir? Sacolas retornáveis fazem bem seu trabalho ao levar os produtos para casa, mas e o que usar na lixeira? Veja só essa cesta de lixo: são 40 sacos descartáveis feitos de papel reciclado. Encheu? Apenas retire o saco e o jogue fora, abaixo já haverá outro pronto para ser utilizado! Design de Riccardo Nannini e Domenico Orefice inteligente e prático. Sustentável não sei, o que você acha?

contemporary concrete furniture


'concrete bench' by tejo remy and rené veenhuizen



an industrial mundane material generally associated with building construction, concrete is known for its solidity, strength and durability.
often used to create large monolithic forms, designers have started to manipulate the cold, rigid medium,
forming it into organic and fluid furniture pieces expressing more movement and softer lines with concrete which
usually seems static.

dutch designers tejo remy and rené veenhuizen have developed a series of concrete pieces - a bench, table and chairs -
which offers the look of inflated furniture. each one is cast as a single object in plastic sheeting or waterproof PVC
with metal fibers mixed into the material compound and steel rods embedded within the legs and for reinforcement.
