Mano

Another idea is a cell phone-glove or a glove-cell phone... to take pictures, just move your hand. This cell phone-glove is designed to be easy to use in a more natural way. It is more integrated to the body but is still an accessory. I think I’m imagining the products I’ll love to have and to use... right now!

BBaG

Another idea is a jacket that works as a small backpack to allow packing small items very quickly at the supermarket cashier (!). The user doesn’t need to take away the jacket to packing the items. Here in Plymouth it would be very useful for me (!)…

GreenGlo

Last week I was watching the BBC series ‘Design for Life’ – the Philippe Starck’s School of Design. … and started drawing some ideas on my sketchbook…

The first idea is a glove made of neoprene and Scotch-Brite greener clean natural fiber (like a cover that could be changed several times) to do the dishes without using conventional scrubbers. Having the hands protected it’s possible, for instance, to avoid the use of hot water in the winter times. The glove was conceived to be a sustainable alternative that allows more precision, safety and efficiency to do the dishes.

UnderGrad

Two weeks ago I used this sketch to explain all the things I was doing since under grad... from the Tunnel (that was quite an organic train cabin) with three mixed reality environments inside (my final undergrad project), to my master theses on Complexity and Design Processes in Architecture and to the PhD research on Visual Arts, using systemic measures of complexity and organization to study mixed reality interactive digital art installations. Everything to find ways to think about Architecture more as a system than an object... focusing on interactions, trans-actions, and not on the materiality... at this moment I realized I’m still finishing my undergrad project… or...1970s is here and now...
