The melding of Karim Rashid's brand and Sancal's was done carefully and deliberately. The decanters have a soft square base with angular forms and chamfered bases. The pouring element of the decanters is covered by a wooden closure keeping spirits clean and fresh.

Sent every Tuesday and containing a selection of the most important news highlights. Sent every Thursday and featuring a selection of the best reader comments and most talked-about stories. The raw materials – exposed structural steel, pine framing, white oak wall cladding, and acoustic felt surfaces – give the interiors a modest, natural feeling that flows between the three levels. On the interior, the existing wood trusses have been upgraded to hybrid wood and steel scissor trusses that extend beneath a linear skylight. A cantilevered addition juts out from the north side of the building to create a covered entry, and the eaves of the roof have been lifted for continuous clerestory windows that complement the fully glazed gabled ends.

I was inspired by Achille Castiglioni and George Nelson’s lamps and applied some of those ideas into a modern zeppelin form. I hope it has a warmth and neutrality that’s a calming presence in any kind of room. We applied the design language we developed for the “Vie” decanters and shaker to create a cohesive family for gifting.

Argo Navis School

Inspired by his daughter’s Lego and the soft, geometric shapes he’s returned to again and again, Chris began stacking 10cm cubes to form three friendly lights. The pipe is produced in hand-blown durable borosilicate glass with ultra-soft silicone covers (anti-static & UV treatment), the pipe comes in a giftable and protected package that includes an extra bowl. The modular design of the pipe allows the 5 components to be cleaned thoroughly and customized with the silicone parts and potential future parts. We also added a steel poker and integrated it into the design so it’s there when needed. Originally built in 1930, the church was converted into a 19,600-square foot (1,820 metre) flagship studio for Argodesign, a global product design office. Great companies entrust their product strategy and user experience design to argo.

When designing architectural components the aesthetics cannot be polarizing, they must be something that will compliment a multitude of interiors. At the same time, it's great to think of a design language that can be translated into complimentary products to be specified for projects. Many cats are...sprayers meaning they require high walled boxes without seams and liners that might leak. Many cats refuse to use an enclosed litter box because they can't sit without bumping their heads, or they don't allow light in, or they contain the smell inside too well. Most enclosed litter boxes are also too small inside and larger cats can't turn around upon entry, some entries are too high for older and younger cats, some entrances are too small for larger cats...and the list goes on. There aren’t any enclosed litter boxes available that can be proudly left out in a small space while also being inclusive to cats of all sizes, ages and behaviors.

Our design-build service includes meeting with the owner and architect to determine the scope and complexity of work for the design and building process. From healthcare space to education facilities, our latest projects have turned heads and made waves across the Southeast. Working closely with our clients team, we developed a family of TV stands and accessories with a mid-century feel. The project was a huge success not only in media attention, but also in helping shape PepsiCo's new internal culture while staying relevant to our consumer. We showed how a small investment combined with strategic design could bring the brand more attention than advertising. I managed the Industrial Design component sketching and developing the primary and secondary packaging for the US launch and also bottle/tumblers with integrated straws for some of our South American markets.

Weeday pipe

Married with the functional aspects of the bin, the goal was to create aesthetics that were not polarizing but complimentary to sit alongside NYC’s architectural landmarks. A collection of serveware utilizing acacia and brass elements inspired by a circle. The Staze jar has a ribbed detail inspired by mushrooms gills that add grip and a premium feel while creating a continuous transition from the jar to the cap, so it does not get caught on anything when stored. The 45ml gel squeeze version is produced in an ocean bound plastic bottle and closure/clip to attach to a belt loop or bag. There are two styles available, one for liquid mist sanitizer and the other for squeezable gel sanitizer.

Alta approached us to reimagine their Bliss line of home window automation controls. The home is a sacred place, and we strived to create something friendly with clean geometry while being effortless to use. This is no documentary, it’s a major studio motion picture, and a heck of a good one at that. Mendez is the CIA’s top man in exfiltration, an expert at the stealth removal of people from hostile territory, and because the time has come to get those six out of Iran his expertise is sorely needed. Convincingly scripted by debuting screenwriter Chris Terrio from the real-life exploits of retired agent Tony Mendez (played by Affleck), “Argo” is most impressive in the number of moods its director has casually mastered.

We added a video wall behind and above the desk for dynamic content to catch visitors eyes and it is flanked by 2 lit storage areas to showcase products. Developing a project for a global market involves many considerations, from our consumers and food service needs to production and filling. The “Zeppelin” lamp has a small footprint making it ideal for compact spaces while offering a warmth that spreads throughout the space. To keep the smell in, there is a carbon filter in the cap which allows air to pass through while creating an odor protective barrier.

Argo has pretty much doubled that time because of his “drive and love to go to work,” according to Schrader. He also was deployed for 105 building searches and used in more than 150 tracks, including one when he helped another agency locate a missing child, according to the proclamation. Argo was joined by his handler, CPD K9 Officer Branch Schrader, Police Chief Steve Norman, CPD officers and city officials on the steps of city hall to wish the 13 year-old German Shepard/Belgian Malinois mix well and thank him for his service.

In the research phase I identified multiple areas where we could improve the litter box experience for cats and people. We love design – for the technology, for the simple joy of craft, and ultimately for the experiences we create. Many manufacturers are jumping on the scooter's popularity, with varying degrees of design sophistication. The Austin, Texas studio has commissioned its Amsterdam arm to create a novel shared-scheme scooter concept focused on the fusion of safety and community. The result is Step, built on a respect for shared space and demonstrating a sensibility for ease-of-use and storage.

Winner of Mockett's annual design competition, the Dock-it was designed to charge your smartphone and tablet while keeping it visible and functional on the desk top. To bring them back to life, we looked at new ways to reuse them alongside 30 other design studios, the designs were then produced at the San Patrignano wood shop. An exercise in aesthetics, I worked on the Hellraiser collection based on a style of drawing I was doing at the time.

"The circular window was originally a stained glass window," the studio said. A large entry courtyard serves as an outdoor living room that connects to the main level and sits above a semi-underground lower level with training spaces, conference rooms and bike storage. "The structure is exposed, and the materials and framework perform while also operating as the finish," the studio said. "There are a range of collaborative and private spaces to accommodate different working styles and projects." I have authored several lifestyle books, including the critically acclaimed and commercially successful The Life Negroni, and I work as a content strategist and luxury brand consultant at Spinach. Read about some other progressive electric mobility ideas, including the Mizzi electric bus for Malta, the autonomous electric Muji bus in Iceland and Seat's eco Minimo quadricycle.
