Milano Design Week 2012


...moving to Milano during the Design Week was pretty
hardcore. 
In a good way: parties, exhibitions, aperitives, cool people,
and WORK WORK WORK. 
So, this is my 
point of view, 
exploring the thin boundary between 
past 
and future.  

PAST
artisanal'700 Florence inspiration design of TERME FIRENZE

FUTURE
ANOTHER TERRA/HOME AWAY FROM HOME, eco kit for hand luggage with all is necessary to move to another planet

PAST
barriques barrels from S.Patrignano community have been recycled (giving them a new life) by more than 30 famous designers: names like Fiorucci, Pininfarina, De Lucchi, Cerri, Sigini, Rota...
Chaise-longue Michele by Erasmo Figini

the FUTURE of PAST 
Benjamin Hubert, class of 1984, the enfant prodige of international design, has created Juliet: the armchair that symbolises Poltrona Frau's one hundred anniversary.

sustainable index of The Happiest Countries in the World


I receive a quantity of emails with questions like: 
Where are you going to go? 
WELL, 
AT THE MOMENT, 
I'M GOOGLEING IT. 
The Happy Planet Index (HPI) 
is an index of human well-being and environmental impact 
that was introduced by the New Economics Foundation (NEF) in July 2006. 
COMPETITORS: well-established indices of countries’ development, 
what's new in Happy Planet Index (HPI) 
-sustainability 
-the usual ultimate aim of most people is not to be rich, but to be happy and healthy. 
-the notion of sustainable development requires a measure of the environmental costs of pursuing those  goals. 

You can get further info here
Me? 
What do I think? 
I like the simple attitude of this graphic, 
where the "shit life" has a shit colour, 
and the happy life has a green colour.
