<p>A writer looking for a quiet place to write and reflect bought a one-room studio and hired <a href="https://fischerarchitecture.com/" target="_blank" rel="noopener external noreferrer"><strong>Fischer Architecture</strong></a> to overhaul it. Located steps away from the Pacific Ocean in Stinson Beach, this compact home is now an open space, light-filled writer’s retreat that maximizes indoor-outdoor living. A set of tall folding glass doors at the entrance flood the inside with natural light while extending the usable space outside to a patio.</p>
<p><a href="https://design-milk.com/?attachment_id=465192" rel="attachment wp-att-465192"><img loading="lazy" class="alignnone wp-image-465192 size-large" src="https://design-milk.com/images/2021/11/Stinson-Beach-Writers-Studio-Fischer-Architecture-2-810x540.jpg" alt="modern interior of compact house in neutral tones" width="810" height="540" /></a></p>

<p>Inside, a neutral color palette presents a calm, distraction-free environment ready for working. A space-saving Murphy bed folds out for sleeping then hides away in the wall leaving plenty of floor space for other activities.</p>

<p>Stone floors throughout set the subdued tone of the space, while light, whitewashed oak cabinets add warmth. A quartzite counter and backsplash add texture to the minimalist kitchen and complement the floors.</p>

<h2>Gregory – Contributing Writer/Tech Editor | Cloth Napkins by Anchal Project</h2>
<div class="shop-list-item-description">
<p>“Cloth napkins aren’t usually something that rates highly on wish lists typically, but as an admittedly eager and occasionally haphazard eater, I found myself amusingly enthused upgrading from an older set of very durable, yet rough fabric napkins recently to something more pleasantly tactile and contemporary – a complementary set of <a href="https://shop.design-milk.com/products/graph-napkin-set" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Graph</a> and <a href="https://shop.design-milk.com/products/prism-napkin-set" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Prism</a> design napkins. Not only does the subtle dotted line geometric patterns appeal aesthetically – hinting both of quilt-like craft and modernist wireframe forms – but the organic cotton is supple, absorbent, and textured and hasn’t failed me yet when I need to wipe my face clean between bites. These would make a great gift for anyone who loves to eat, as much as they appreciate good design.”</p>

This design has remained largely unchanged since the company was founded in 2014 and for good reason. It fits in the hand like a perfectly rounded river rock and has a large hollow chamber for a smooth and even drag. And unlike a lot of the other high design options out there, it doesn’t draw attention to itself when not in use. This piece comes in a number of <a href="https://store.design-milk.com/collections/miwak-junior" target="_blank" rel="noopener external noreferrer">stoneware clay options</a>, but the Lincanabur Black Mountain Clay rendition is easily the most low key and will hide the gunk and stains that mar glass and other light-colored pipes.”</p>

<p>The oeuvre of auteur Wesley Wales Anderson – aka Wes Anderson – is immediately distinguishable at even a quick glance. The filmmaker’s impeccable, precise eye for composition, illuminated by a seemingly timeless palette of pastels paints his body of work with a uniquely nostalgic aura swimming with whimsy and wonder. Keyboard maker <strong>Angry Miao</strong> surprisingly has dipped into this unmistakable tonal range to tinge a trio of mechanical keyboards with “a sense of idiosyncraticness and exquisiteness” with their anachronistically named, <a href="https://www.angrymiao.com/cyberboard-r3/" target="_blank" rel="noopener external noreferrer"><strong>Cyberboard R3</strong></a> series.</p>
<p><a href="https://design-milk.com/?attachment_id=464715" rel="attachment wp-att-464715"><img loading="lazy" class="alignnone wp-image-464715 size-large" src="https://design-milk.com/images/2021/11/WesAnderson_Cyberboard-keyboard-2-810x591.jpg" alt="Pink mechanical keyboard with small gift boxes with blue ribbons stack in the background." width="810" height="591" /></a></p>
<p>Anderson’s latest film, <a href="https://www.searchlightpictures.com/thefrenchdispatch/" target="_blank" rel="noopener external noreferrer"><em>The French Dispatch</em></a>, has reignited interest and discussion of the director’s body of work, and the Cyberboard R3 arrives as an unexpected homage to his previous cinematic efforts including <em>The Grand Budapest Hotel</em> and <em>Isle of Dogs,</em> alongside the lesser known short film, <em>Come Together</em>. Each keyboard is tinted as a visual homage, electro-coated for durability and saturation, with a sharply angled keyboard housing.</p>
<p><a href="https://design-milk.com/?attachment_id=464717" rel="attachment wp-att-464717"><img loading="lazy" class="alignnone wp-image-464717 size-large" src="https://design-milk.com/images/2021/11/WesAnderson_Cyberboard-keyboard-4-810x519.jpg" alt="Aquatic green keyboard sitting on top of newspaper." width="810" height="519" /></a></p>

<p>The entire layout sits atop a gasket mount to produce a slightly more cushioned feel with every keystroke. Perhaps more curiously – and in the retro-spirit of Anderson films – each keyboard also sports a fairly large and low resolution LED matrix display.</p>

Congratulations Tom!</p>
<p>Tom chats with Design Milk about her studio Tomma Bloom, the inspiration behind her work, and what she plans on taking on next:</p>
<div class="jetpack-video-wrapper"><iframe class="youtube-player" width="840" height="473" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/JBvLfmc0cFs?version=3&rel=1&showsearch=0&showinfo=1&iv_load_policy=1&fs=1&hl=en&autohide=2&wmode=transparent" allowfullscreen="true" style="border:0;" sandbox="allow-scripts allow-same-origin allow-popups allow-presentation"></iframe></div>
<p><strong>Can you tell us a little bit about your background? Who is Tom and how did Tomma Bloom come about?</strong></p>
<p>I’m a textile designer in passion and practice. I’m 31 (but celebrate 19 every year), I grew up in Israel and currently live in Boston, MA with my wife and gorgeous dog-daughter, Kai. I graduated from Shenkar College of Design with a bachelor’s degree in Textile Design (Cum Laude) and from Tel-Aviv University with a Master of Art in Interdisciplinary Arts.</p>
<p>As a kid, I was the odd girl out, never felt like I quite fit anywhere. Luckily, I have a strong mom that has always made sure that I stay true to myself, to who I am and to what I believe in, so evidently it became the core to my values. Pursuing a creative profession was my calling, so I am doing it with open heart and open mind.</p>
<p>My grandma’s studio was my favorite place on earth. She was a textile artist, so I was familiar with textile as an artistic medium from an early age. When I applied to design school, I felt like I knew what I was getting into but had no idea how this choice would be so meaningful. It turns out that my whole essence was wired to textiles. Textile as a practice, a method and a visual language works perfectly with my repetitive-anxious-OCD mind. Framing my practice within a pattern or a structure is the basis of how I think and act.</p>
<p>Since an early age my dream was to live in NYC and have a space where I could practice my art. My wife and I moved to the New York three years ago to pursue new adventures and professional development. I founded Tomma Bloom around then, and my work focuses on surface design for interior. Textile design is the basis of my creative practice and a guideline to my work, but I believe that there is so much more to it than designing fabrics. It can be used both as a visual language and as an object in creating tactile and playful spaces. Through ever-evolving material research, I work to redefine the tools of my trade – pattern and structure, along with form and color – into tangible, three-dimensional experiences, inspired and driven by an exploration of material culture and the interactions between object and folklore.</p>
<p><a href="https://design-milk.com/?attachment_id=465221" rel="attachment wp-att-465221"><img loading="lazy" class="alignnone size-large wp-image-465221" src="https://design-milk.com/images/2021/11/wanteddesign-launchpad-2021-tom-lerental-7-810x305.jpg" alt="textile design" width="810" height="305" /></a></p>
<p><a href="https://design-milk.com/?attachment_id=465220" rel="attachment wp-att-465220"><img loading="lazy" class="alignnone size-large wp-image-465220" src="https://design-milk.com/images/2021/11/wanteddesign-launchpad-2021-tom-lerental-6-810x1080.jpg" alt="textile design" width="810" height="1080" /></a></p>
<p><strong>What is so inspiring to you about Sonia Delaunay and Rene Lalique’s work?</strong></p>
<p>My approach to design thinking and my creative practice are deeply influenced by the late 19th, early 20th centuries Art History. I believe that this era is one of the most meaningful in the development of our material culture, one that allowed us to move forward by questioning our culture, perception, and medium.</p>
<p>Sonia Delaunay and Rene Lalique are two examples of artists that created groundbreaking work that allowed us to be forward thinkers. I find Sonia Delaunay approach to form and color fascinating. Using abstraction to depict forms was not a new approach at her time, but the rhythm and motion she created using color were unique to her. As for Rene Lalique, I admire his utmost use of details, building his work through repetition of forms, translating his style through various mediums.</p>
<p>Saying that, the thing that inspires me the most about their work is their dedication and uncompromising approach towards their practice, and the fact that they were able to keep their unique voice while transitioning from one medium to another.</p>

<p><strong>Who is your ideal customer?</strong></p>
<p>Interior designers, architects and people who are visionary, forward thinkers who are not afraid to step out of the box and utilize bold designs into their spaces.</p>
<p><strong>What were some of the challenges in creating your designs and how did you overcome them?</strong></p>
<p>Being a designer is an ever-evolving practice that requires being madly in love with what you do to keep doing it. A lot of effort and even struggle goes into developing an artwork, and just because you have the talent doesn’t mean that things come easy. I believe that raw talent is not enough. It should be nurtured and must go hand by hand with persistence and hard work. The challenge is to constantly balance this trio, which feels like feeding a hungry beast, especially when you’re a one woman show. I love every minute of it, but sometimes I wish I had someone on my shoulder that would say “everything is going to be ok.”</p>
<p>The “Sonia and Rene” collection was the first time I experimented with 3D structures. I was curious about the three-dimensional possibilities hidden in my practice and took a leap of faith into the world of 3D structure. Frankly, when I started, I knew absolutely nothing about it. As someone who used to work with soft materials like yarn and fabrics, working with 3D printing, molds and casting was a steep learning curve. I still have so much to learn and am grateful for Itai Miller, who is an amazing industrial designer and who I have been working with to bring this collection to life. I used to think that I can make it on my own, but I know now that the people around you are those who make the difference. I’m lucky enough to say that I have a great support group of colleagues (shout out to FDC) and friends that keep my sanity intact.</p>

<p><strong>How can you see your work being utilized by designers or manufacturers?</strong></p>
<p>I believe that when you join forces great things happen, so I would love to work with professionals from the A&D community to develop work for interior design – home and commercial spaces. Upholstery, rugs, wall covers and tiles. Anything that can transform a space. My dream is to have a commission space designed from top to bottom –floor to ceiling Tomma Bloom.</p>
<p><strong>Now that you’ve won WantedDesign Launch Pad, what do you plan on doing next?</strong></p>
<p>Being awarded the Best of Launch Pad is a great honor and I am forever grateful to the panel of judges that believed in my practice and most importantly – in me. Along with a pat on the back comes the hunger to push harder and do better. I’m constantly developing new ideas and currently working on my next collection of fabrics.</p>
<p>The “Sonia and Rene” collection is only the tip of iceberg when it comes to experimenting with 3D and textile design. I will present my new collection at the May 2022 Launch Pad, so stay tuned!</p>

<p>Back in 2020, we <a href="https://design-milk.com/tom-dixon-turns-a-dining-table-into-a-solid-brass-sculpture/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">featured</a> a massive dining table <a href="https://shop.design-milk.com/collections/tom-dixon" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer"><strong>Tom Dixon</strong></a> made from solid brass. Now, the British designer is rounding out the Mass collection with four new pieces: an updated dining table, console table, bookshelf, and coat stand. Tom Dixon makes the <strong>Mass 2.0</strong> pieces in the U.K. out of super polished solid brass in the shape of planks, the most often used unit in furniture construction. The results are everyday household archetypes transformed into captivating sculptures with lustrous, golden hued finishes.</p>

<p>Not all timepieces are created equal. In fact, most failed to accommodate those who are visually impaired, and the alternatives that sprung up in their place – talking and delicate tactile watches – fell short on quality and design. That is until modern watch brand <strong><a href="https://shop.design-milk.com/collections/eone-timepieces" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Eone</a></strong> came to be, anyway. When founder Hyungsoo Kim learned of the watch world’s inaccessibility through a friend who is blind, he set out to create an inclusively designed timepiece that serves everyone – and delivers on next-level design in the process. Kim’s thoughtful collaboration with designers and people with vision impairments led to the engineering of a watch unlike anything else out there – a modern and iconic timepiece designed to communicate time through touch rather than only sight. Newly added to the <a href="https://shop.design-milk.com/collections/eone-timepieces" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Design Milk Shop</a>, there’s plenty to admire about this trailblazing watch brand, so let’s dive in.</p>
<div id="attachment_465124" class="wp-caption alignnone"><img loading="lazy" class="wp-image-465124 size-large" src="https://design-milk.com/images/2021/11/eone-bradleysnyder-designmilkshop-newness-810x618.jpg" alt="veteran and olympic athlete bradley snyder with his dog sitting on a stoop" width="810" height="618" />
<p class="wp-caption-text">Eone’s best-selling model, <a href="https://shop.design-milk.com/collections/eone-timepieces/products/bradley-apex-leather-black" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">The Bradley</a>, is named after veteran turned Paralympic athlete and gold-medalist Bradley Snyder – who became blind while defusing bombs in the line of duty.</p>
</div>
<p>The hero of the Eone catalog is the <a href="https://design-milk.com/search/?query=eone+bradley&search=shop" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Bradley</a> model. Named after veteran turned Paralympic athlete and gold-medalist Bradley Snyder – who became blind while defusing bombs in the line of duty – this line of watches champions the needs of the visually impaired and can be enjoyed by everyone, blind and sighted alike. The best-selling watch collection lets users feel the time thanks to their unique three-dimensional form. Raised lines in varied widths denote the hours and ticking watch hands are reimagined with an innovative magnetic ball bearing system that circles the watch face on a track for minutes and another for the hour. Pretty cool right?</p>
<p>Being able to tell the time in a way that’s accessible and convenient, while core to Eone’s ethos, isn’t enough – the brand wants blind and sighted users to experience ultra-modern design and have options to choose from. The Bradley comes in a variety of styles and finishes, all befit with architectural details and minimalist aesthetic that have become synonymous with Eone. Their newest model, The Switch even has a <a href="https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/eone/switch-inclusion-style-and-choice-in-one-sleek-timepiece?ref=68gf48" target="_blank" rel="noopener external noreferrer">Kickstarter</a> community rallying behind it and is slated to join the DM shop soon.</p>

<p>Tested by Tech Editor Gregory Han (find his full review <a href="https://design-milk.com/bradley-element-eone/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">here</a>), the <a href="https://shop.design-milk.com/collections/eone-timepieces/products/bradley-element" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Bradley Element</a> is unique from others on the Eone line up due to the architectural planes that lead up to the raised hour lines, creating alternating high and low impressions across the watch face. Made with a durable, scratch-resistant ceramic and PVD coated – the materials are carefully considered for texture and resilience. The Element’s matte black finish and black stainless steel mesh strap give the watch a sleek and modern edge that’s as stylish as it is functional.</p>

<p>A collaboration based on elevated aesthetics with everyday function has resulted in the <strong><a href="https://www.unionwoodco.com/pages/slab-collection" target="_blank" rel="noopener external noreferrer">Slab Collection</a></strong> of minimal seating. <a href="https://shop.design-milk.com/collections/furniture" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Furniture</a> studio <strong><a href="https://www.unionwoodco.com/" target="_blank" rel="noopener external noreferrer">Union Wood Co</a></strong> and designer Alyssa Lewis of <strong><a href="https://www.studio-block.com/" target="_blank" rel="noopener external noreferrer">Studio Block</a></strong> have created three pieces – dining chair, counter stool, and bar stool – that intentionally reduce the details of a chair’s structure. These pieces are a true celebration of form and the natural beauty of wood.</p>
<p><a href="https://design-milk.com/?attachment_id=458381" rel="attachment wp-att-458381"><img loading="lazy" class="alignnone size-large wp-image-458381" src="https://design-milk.com/images/2021/08/Union-Wood-Co-Slab-Collection-6-810x1085.png" alt="three primitive wood chairs on concrete floor in front of white wall" width="810" height="1085" /></a></p>
<p>The Slab Collection is the first collaboration between the two studios, who met while working closely together during the 2019 Interior Design Show Vancouver. It was an easy match thanks to their individual design approaches. Studio Block uses a minimalist’s eye to create serene living spaces: “I find there is a lot of visual noise that surrounds us every day, so I like to simplify things in my design work to quiet the world around us,” said Lewis. Union Wood Co crafts furniture that will stand the test of time in both design and construction.</p>

<p class="wp-caption-text">Slab Dining Chair</p>
</div>
<p>The seating’s name comes from the raw material used to make each piece, hand-selected ash slabs. The hardwood is ideal for furniture for its durability, shock-resistence, and light weight. The Slab Collection allows you to choose from natural, whitewashed, or blackened finishes. Each piece is then coated with a matte commercial grade finish for a softened look that will last through a variety of living and working environments.</p>

<h2><strong>1. Designing Motherhood</strong></h2>
<p><em><a href="https://mitpress.mit.edu/books/designing-motherhood" target="_blank" rel="noopener external noreferrer">Designing Motherhood</a></em>, by Michelle Millar Fisher and Amber Winick, was released in September from MIT Press. Their <a href="http://Instagram:%20https://www.instagram.com/designingmotherhood/?hl=en" target="_blank" rel="noopener external noreferrer">Instagram</a> account showcases an incredible mix of work centered on human reproduction and design, and the politics and conversations that entails. I love that their work and advocacy speak so poignantly to pressing societal issues, while feeling personal as I go through my own journey, merging motherhood and design work.</p>

<h2><strong>3. Design Studio for Social Intervention / Ideas, Arrangements, Effects</strong></h2>
<p>Boston-based <a href="https://www.ds4si.org/" target="_blank" rel="noopener external noreferrer">DS4Si</a> released Ideas, Arrangements, Effects last year and generously held a reading group last Summer along with the University of Orange. This book was an incredible resource for getting my graduate and undergraduate students to help talk about the real dimensions of design work that addresses social justice in the built realm. The core premise is that “ideas are embedded in social arrangements, which in turn produce effects.” DS4Si explores this through accessible descriptions and incredible examples of their own work that help redefine our agency and impact in the material world.</p>

<h2><strong>4. Bodies and Textiles, Specifically Emilie Flöge’s Dresses</strong></h2>
<p>I keep returning to my own relationship to clothing and identity. Emilie Flöge’s work is an incredible example of the freeing of volumetric textiles that helps us rethink bodies in space. History paints her as Klimt’s muse, but a show a decade ago at the Leopold in Vienna proved through postcards and exchanges that Flöge was collaborator and confidant in the Secessionist movement. My own practice is drawn to historical and contemporary textile work that shifts and remolds gender and identity.</p>

<h2><strong>5. Siblings<br /></strong></h2>
<p>Now, more than ever, I am so aware of how strange and lucky it is to run a practice with my sister. Sibling creative pairs are always fascinating to us – The Mulleavy Sisters, Haas Brothers, Leong Leong, Hariri and Hariri, the Bouroullec Brothers… We are proto-collectives: the place where we first learn to share and collaborate without judgement, but with the productive frictions that arise from knowing each other too well.</p>

<p>In Ramat Gan, Israel, a family tasked Israeli interior designer <a href="http://shadmi-design.com" target="_blank" rel="external noopener noreferrer"><strong>Chen Shadmi</strong></a> to renovate their 1980s house into a modern tri-level home that’s inspired by the wife’s work as a historian specializing in Old Jerusalem. The family requested that the home celebrate Armenian art in Jerusalem, as well as integrate a more contemporary floor plan that was adaptable to different needs.</p>
<p><a href="https://design-milk.com/?attachment_id=464920" rel="attachment wp-att-464920"><img loading="lazy" class="alignnone size-large wp-image-464920" src="https://design-milk.com/images/2021/11/shen-chadmi-jerusalem-historian-home-8-810x540.jpg" alt="modern home in Israel" width="810" height="540" /></a></p>

<p>Shadmi and the family began the design process with a tour to Old Jerusalem to visit the wife’s favorite places and reacquaint themselves with materials that are customary in Eastern European homes. They asked Armean Darian, an Armenian ceramic artist based in Jerusalem, to hand-paint the illustrations on the tiles seen on the pillar on the ground floor and the stairs leading to the first floor.</p>

<p>If you or someone in your life is a bibliophile, then the <a href="http://27.kickto.link/pV05o2v/" target="_blank" rel="noopener sponsored external noreferrer"><strong>Author Clock</strong></a> is sure to pique your interest. Without question a statement piece, it uses thousands of quotes from books written across six centuries to spell out the current time every minute of the day. Checking the time becomes a whimsical moment that transports you through literature with every glance.</p>
<p><a href="https://design-milk.com/?attachment_id=464972" rel="attachment wp-att-464972"><img loading="lazy" class="alignnone size-large wp-image-464972" src="https://design-milk.com/images/2021/11/Author-Clock-2-810x505.jpg" alt="two sizes of digital screen devices on white background" width="810" height="505" /></a></p>
<p>With $300,000 raised on Kickstarter in less than 36 hours, the Author Clock is already fully funded and will begin shipping April 2022. “We’re thrilled with the early response to Author, and hope that it will help readers discover new books, authors, and even genres,” says founder Jose Cardona. “We’re hopeful that displaying the Author Clock will spark conversations about literature between friends, family, and coworkers.”</p>
<p><a href="https://design-milk.com/?attachment_id=464973" rel="attachment wp-att-464973"><img loading="lazy" class="alignnone size-large wp-image-464973" src="https://design-milk.com/images/2021/11/Author-Clock-3-810x456.jpg" alt="digital screen device sitting on wood surface" width="810" height="456" /></a></p>
<p>It comes available in two sizes: a small 4″ display that’s ideal for a desk or bedside table, and a large 7.5″ display with a removable base perfect for a bookshelf or wall mount. The elegant wood housing of the clock uses white oak sourced from sustainable forests. <a href="http://27.kickto.link/pV05o2v/" target="_blank" rel="noopener sponsored external noreferrer">Mechanical Design Labs</a>, who create products that add moments of inspiration to everyday life, have partnered with <a href="https://onetreeplanted.org/" target="_blank" rel="noopener sponsored external noreferrer">OneTreePlanted</a> to plant a tree for every Author Clock sold. Launch prices start at $99 for the small and $199 for the large, with limited discounts of over 30% off MSRP for the first Author Clock backers.</p>
<p><a href="https://design-milk.com/?attachment_id=464974" rel="attachment wp-att-464974"><img loading="lazy" class="alignnone size-large wp-image-464974" src="https://design-milk.com/images/2021/11/Author-Clock-4-810x540.jpg" alt="digital screen device sitting on stack of books" width="810" height="540" /></a></p>
<p>The creators are also excited to involve their Kickstarter community in further development of the Author Clock. Besides raising funds, during the campaign they’ll be crowdsourcing even more quotes that mention the time. “It will come as no surprise that our backers are avid readers,” says Cardona. “They’ve already begun finding new quotes for Author that will help us deliver an even better product.” <strong>There are still a few days left to get on board with the Author Clock Kickstarter, so <a href="http://27.kickto.link/pV05o2v/" target="_blank" rel="noopener sponsored external noreferrer">back them now</a>!</strong></p>

<p><a href="https://www.thefutureperfect.com/" target="_blank" rel="external noopener noreferrer"><strong>The Future Perfect</strong></a>, a contemporary gallery founded by David Alhadeff, has just unveiled its latest exhibition at Casa Perfect, its Los Angeles outpost in Beverly Hills. Featuring new works by designer and sculptor <a href="https://www.chriswolston.com/" target="_blank" rel="external noopener noreferrer"><strong>Chris Wolston</strong></a>, <em>Temperature’s Rising</em> is a fantasy come to life, a compilation of 21 original works that explore materiality and abstraction through chairs, tables, loungers, and other furniture pieces. Wolson continues to expand his unique style of using fiber materials to weave anthropomorphic forms and silhouettes while also experimenting with metallurgy using bronze, brass, and copper metals.</p>
<p><a href="https://design-milk.com/?attachment_id=464779" rel="attachment wp-att-464779"><img loading="lazy" class="alignnone size-large wp-image-464779" src="https://design-milk.com/images/2021/11/chris-wolston-temperatures-rising-exhibition-7-810x810.jpg" alt="metal table" width="810" height="810" /></a></p>

<p><em>Temperature’s Rising</em> is an amalgamation of different inspirational sources, from the Andes Mountains in Western Colombia to Spanish modernism. The human elements of his pieces gives a sense of familiarity while reframing your perspective of the whimsical possibilities of furniture. Wolston explains:</p>
<blockquote>
<p>I’m fascinated by the large-scale, gestural patterns that make up our world. The past year has thrown the beauty and fragility of our lives into sharp relief. <em>Temperature’s Rising</em> dually celebrates the essential elements of our world and encourages you to think differently about the objects you see everyday.</p>

<p>The collection includes Wolston’s first-ever standing mirror, seating woven from ethically sourced 100% Colombian wicker, a rattan sofa that upcycles animal hides, and a one-of-a-kind vessel that combines wicker and metal.</p>

<p><strong><a href="https://typ.land/" rel="external noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">TYP</a></strong> is a recently launched furniture design brand bringing timeless modern classics to the masses. The inaugural collection includes a curated selection of contemporary designs aimed at bringing design history into the future, all made with sustainable, high-quality materials.</p>
<p><a href="https://design-milk.com/?attachment_id=464461" rel="attachment wp-att-464461"><img loading="lazy" class="alignnone size-large wp-image-464461" src="https://design-milk.com/images/2021/10/typ_helenthonet_florianlambl_00001-810x540.jpg" alt="" width="810" height="540" /></a></p>
<p>Notable designers include Klemens Schillinger – who created an aluminum chair out of the highest grade aluminum – and Jasper Morrison, bringing forth a redesigned tubular steel chair exclusive to TYP named PEL, originally manufactured by Practical Equipment Ltd in the 1930s.</p>
<p>“Our vision and ambition is to bring products to the market that will have substantial relevance,” says Helen Thonet, TYP CEO and co-Founder. “We know the demands set on products for modern interior collections today. More than just adjusting colors and fabrics season after season, we want to create a new standard within the design industry that revolves around great design, competitive pricing and sustainable manufacturing.”</p>

<p>With the majority of press surrounding <strong>Microsoft’s</strong> recent Surface event focused upon the company’s intriguing more-than-meets-the-eye flagship laptop, the <a href="https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/d/surface-laptop-studio/8SRDF62SWKPF?icid=mscom_marcom_CPH1a_SurfaceLaptopStudio" target="_blank" rel="noopener external noreferrer">Surface Laptop Studio</a>, alongside other 2-in-1 form factors reflective of the company’s commitment to convertible computing devices it was easy to miss the reveal of a smaller accessory – an eco-design conceived to reuse plastic detritus collected from the ocean and turn it into a point and click peripheral, the <strong><a href="https://www.microsoft.com/en-ww/accessories/sustainability/ocean-plastic-mouse" target="_blank" rel="noopener external noreferrer">Ocean Plastic Mouse</a></strong>.</p>
<p><a href="https://design-milk.com/?attachment_id=462571" rel="attachment wp-att-462571"><img loading="lazy" class="alignnone size-large wp-image-462571" src="https://design-milk.com/images/2021/10/Microsoft-Ocean_Plastic_Mouse-7-810x709.jpg" alt="" width="810" height="709" /></a></p>
<p>“The team wondered, why couldn’t we make a resin out of plastic in the ocean and make a dent there?” said Patrick Gaule, senior designer on the Windows & Devices design team. “We started formalizing this idea. What type of resin? What kind of product? We came up with a plan to look into it. We were sure it was going to be very hard. We weren’t sure it was going to work.”</p>
<p>And thus Microsoft set out to conceive a scalable method for converting gathered plastic bottles, bottle caps, packaging and other discarded waste polluting waterways and coastlines, breaking them down into raw polymer resin pellets to form the external shell of their new mouse.</p>
<div class="jetpack-video-wrapper"><iframe class="youtube-player" width="840" height="473" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/D_mFSryNlC4?version=3&rel=1&showsearch=0&showinfo=1&iv_load_policy=1&fs=1&hl=en&autohide=2&wmode=transparent" allowfullscreen="true" style="border:0;" sandbox="allow-scripts allow-same-origin allow-popups allow-presentation"></iframe></div>
<p>Because ocean plastic tends to already exhibit signs of molecular degradation caused by heat, ultraviolet light, moisture and salt exposure (left long enough to churn in the ocean, these plastics degrade into the minuscule nightmare known as microplastics now found in nearly every water source and ecosystem), the Microsoft team needed to discover new methods ensuring the polyethylene terephthalate (PET) commonly used to make water bottles into a material suitable for a consumer electronic device.</p>
<p>“The resin used is polyester, which is good for water bottle applications but not a common material used for consumer electronics,” said Tony Li, a principal mechanical engineer for Surface devices. “That’s the challenge. All plastics have different behavior. Polyester has higher mold shrinkage, lower heat deflection and the material has higher moisture absorption than other resins more commonly used for hardware enclosures.”</p>
<p><a href="https://design-milk.com/?attachment_id=462575" rel="attachment wp-att-462575"><img loading="lazy" class="alignnone size-large wp-image-462575" src="https://design-milk.com/images/2021/10/Microsoft-Ocean_Plastic_Mouse-12-810x371.jpg" alt="" width="810" height="371" /></a></p>
<p><a href="https://design-milk.com/?attachment_id=462573" rel="attachment wp-att-462573"><img loading="lazy" class="alignnone size-large wp-image-462573" src="https://design-milk.com/images/2021/10/Microsoft-Ocean_Plastic_Mouse-8-810x456.jpg" alt="" width="810" height="456" /></a></p>
<p>The resulting design isn’t made entirely of recycled plastic, just 20 percent. Microsoft says their original goal was to use half that, 10 percent recycled ocean plastic for their Ocean Plastic Mouse. But in the process of developing the resin, the team was able to eke an additional 10 percent more of the recycled ocean plastic by weight – the equivalent of half of a 16-ounce water bottle. The resulting mouse is covered in speckled plastic reminiscent of vanilla ice cream, complemented by a blue tinted scroll wheel.</p>
<p><a href="https://design-milk.com/?attachment_id=462574" rel="attachment wp-att-462574"><img loading="lazy" class="alignnone size-large wp-image-462574" src="https://design-milk.com/images/2021/10/Microsoft-Ocean_Plastic_Mouse-11-810x521.jpg" alt="" width="810" height="521" /></a></p>
<p><a href="https://design-milk.com/?attachment_id=462572" rel="attachment wp-att-462572"><img loading="lazy" class="alignnone size-large wp-image-462572" src="https://design-milk.com/images/2021/10/Microsoft-Ocean_Plastic_Mouse-10.jpg" alt="" width="798" height="493" /></a></p>
<p>But you may be wondering, “Why not 100% recycled plastic?”. The chemical composition of their proprietary recycled PET plastic proved a roadblock toward this ideal goal; a mouse made entirely of recycled resin sourced from water bottles “would not meet mechanical and reliability specifications” according to Microsoft’s engineering team. Instead, a resin blend combining PET and polycarbonate (PC) plastic was found to offer a balance between durability, comfort and aesthetics.</p>
<p><a href="https://design-milk.com/?attachment_id=462570" rel="attachment wp-att-462570"><img loading="lazy" class="alignnone size-large wp-image-462570" src="https://design-milk.com/images/2021/10/Microsoft-Ocean_Plastic_Mouse-6-810x546.jpg" alt="" width="810" height="546" /></a></p>
<p>Microsoft notes the Ocean Plastic Mouse represents an early effort to integrate recycled ocean plastic as a rule rather than an exception. “This isn’t the be-all, end-all,” says Patrick Gaule, senior designer on the Windows & Devices design team. “This is one example, and we want to do more of this. What I really look forward to is the kind of dialogue with our customers who buy these. I want to hear why they did it, what was interesting about it to them. Because that’s only going to help us going forward.”</p>
<p>The Ocean Plastic Mouse is available now for <a href="https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/d/microsoft-ocean-plastic-mouse/8xh06gbzm3nd" target="_blank" rel="noopener external noreferrer">$24.99 via Microsoft.com</a>.</p>

Our partners are hand-picked by the Design Milk team because they represent the best in design.</em></p>
<p><a href="https://design-milk.com/meet-revol-the-dog-crate-that-combines-form-function/diggs-revol-dog-crate-photo-bart-fish-featured-image/"><img src="https://design-milk.com/images/2021/10/Diggs-Revol-Dog-Crate-Photo-Bart-Fish-Featured-Image-810x540.png" alt="Meet Revol: The Dog Crate That Combines Form + Function" /></a></p>
<p>Your dog is part of your family and their crate is part of your home. But, let’s face it: traditional wire dog crates can be an eyesore. The team at <a href="https://bit.ly/3FoF0fm" target="_blank" rel="noopener sponsored external noreferrer"><strong>Diggs</strong></a> set out to reimagine the crate training experience with products that are stylish for pet parents and safer for pets.</p>
<p>While searching for products for his own dog, Diggs’ founder Zel Crampton found that existing crates on the market were clunky, difficult to use and unattractive. To create a better crate, the Diggs team embarked on a design process that incorporated ethnographic research, customer feedback and thorough safety testing. The result is revolutionary: the <a href="https://bit.ly/3FoF0fm" target="_blank" rel="noopener sponsored external noreferrer"><strong>Revol Dog Crate</strong></a>.</p>
<p><a href="https://design-milk.com/?attachment_id=463096" rel="attachment wp-att-463096"><img loading="lazy" class="alignnone size-large wp-image-463096" src="https://design-milk.com/images/2021/10/Diggs-Revol-Dog-Crate-Photo-Bart-Fish-2-810x540.png" alt="three different size dog crates on white background" width="810" height="540" /></a></p>
<blockquote>
<p>Safety was our top consideration at every point in the design process. Because the pet industry isn’t widely regulated, we utilize standards for toys and juvenile products to design Revol. All of the materials used in our products meet these stringent standards for known toxins and our products are designed to prevent hazardous conditions to pet parents and their pets.</p>
</blockquote>
<p><em>– Greg Walker, Head of Pet Safety at Diggs</em></p>
<p>Revol is as functional as it is beautiful – a design lover’s dream. A reimagined take on the pet supply staple, Revol features a sleek profile and modern colorways that look great in any space. The attractive exterior complements your existing decor, so you don’t have to sacrifice style for your dog’s safety. Diamond-shaped wire mesh reduces the risk of your pup’s paws or mouth getting stuck, while ergonomic, easy-to-use doors make the crate extremely user-friendly.</p>
<p><a href="https://design-milk.com/?attachment_id=463097" rel="attachment wp-att-463097"><img loading="lazy" class="alignnone size-large wp-image-463097" src="https://design-milk.com/images/2021/10/Diggs-Revol-Dog-Crate-Photo-Bart-Fish-3-810x540.png" alt="large brown dog laying inside dog crate on white background" width="810" height="540" /></a></p>
<p>This month, Diggs released the Large size of their Revol Dog Crate. With a waitlist of over 35,000 eager pet parents, it was the brand’s most anticipated launch yet. Built for dogs up to 90 lbs, the Large Revol is a popular choice for Doodles, Golden Retrievers, Labradors and other large breeds.</p>
<p>“The Large Revol is the culmination of three years of R&D and feedback from our Pet Parents, which makes it something really special in the world of products,” said Courtney Armstrong, Head of Product Development at Diggs. “We were able to tackle some really significant challenges with this design, all while striving to enhance the forms and features people have come to know and love about our products.”</p>
<p><a href="https://design-milk.com/?attachment_id=463098" rel="attachment wp-att-463098"><img loading="lazy" class="alignnone size-large wp-image-463098" src="https://design-milk.com/images/2021/10/Diggs-Revol-Dog-Crate-Photo-Bart-Fish-4-810x540.png" alt="person wearing all back moving collapsed dog crate" width="810" height="540" /></a></p>
<p>Revol is a smart choice for dogs of all ages, from puppies to senior pets. The garage-style side door is handy for crate training and makes it more easily accessible for dogs with mobility issues. The included puppy divider allows you to resize the crate’s interior as your pup grows. Apartment dwellers will appreciate the collapsible frame for compact storage, while pet parents on the go can use the wheels for easy transport.</p>
<p>It’s an example of good design solving real problems. Diggs’ growing array of products seeks to help pets and their parents live better, together. The Revol Dog Crate is available in three sizes and three colors, and pairs well with Diggs’ crate accessories, including the Snooz Crate Pad and the first-of-its-kind Groov Training Aid. <strong>To learn more about Diggs, visit <a href="http://diggs.pet" target="_blank" rel="noopener sponsored external noreferrer">diggs.pet</a>.</strong></p>

<p><strong>1. Colorful Artwork</strong><br />
I’ve recently started investing more in original artwork for my home. When it comes to collecting art, I find myself drawn to bold, saturated works – art that feels very different from my own. My partner and I recently bought this painting from Rithika Merchant, an Indian artist in Barcelona (she’s also a cousin of mine). I love her rich, lush exploration of mythological narratives. We also just bought an exuberant, colorful piece from Travis Weller, a local Bay Area artist who layers cut paper into looping, swirling motifs. Buying original art can be so special – it’s so personal and vulnerable to invite someone else’s craft and vision into one’s home. I love being on both sides of this interaction: It’s an honor to make work for other people’s homes, and it’s also deeply fulfilling to invest in artists whose work I feel connected to.</p>

</div>
<p><strong>2. Audiobooks</strong><br />
It took me a while to get on the audiobook bandwagon, but now that I’m on it, I’m hooked. I listen while I’m making art, doing dishes or walking my dog. In an effort to give less money to Amazon, I recently switched my audiobook subscription from Audible to Libro.fm. They’re independently owned and give a portion of your subscription fee to the local bookstore of your choice. I can’t help but plug a few of my recent favorites. For witty linguistics books that you’ll surely end up quoting to friends, <em>Because Internet</em> by Gretchen McCulloch and <em>Wordslut</em> by Amanda Montell are clever and entertaining. If you’re open to having your views challenged, I found that both <em>Caste</em> by Isabel Wilkerson and <em>What We Don’t Talk About When We Talk About Fat</em> by Aubrey Gordon fundamentally changed the way I understand facets of American society. For characters that you’ll fall in love with and won’t want to say goodbye to, dive into <em>A Fine Balance</em> by Rohinton Mistry and <em>A Little Life</em> by Hanya Yanagihara.</p>
<div id="attachment_462793" class="wp-caption alignnone"><a href="https://design-milk.com/?attachment_id=462793" rel="attachment wp-att-462793"><img loading="lazy" class="size-large wp-image-462793" src="https://design-milk.com/images/2021/10/F5-Zai-Devecha-Fog-Photo-Zai-Divecha-810x540.jpg" alt="open water covered in fog" width="810" height="540" /></a>

</div>
<p><strong>3. Fog</strong><br />
I’m obsessed with fog. As a San Francisco resident and Bay Area native, I take a lot of pride in our city’s most iconic type of weather. I love the way it turns any scene or vista into quiet, subtle ombré, a gradient that ends in a whiteout. I especially love when it’s layered thick over the city, like a cozy, familiar blanket. It also makes for beautiful lighting for outdoor portraits – “nature’s softbox,” a photographer friend recently joked. Because of San Francisco’s hilly topography, the city has lots of little microclimates, and the weather varies quite a bit from neighborhood to neighborhood. When my partner and I moved a year ago, fogginess was actually one of our main search criteria. We picked a neighborhood that’s known to be especially foggy!</p>

<p class="wp-caption-text">Photo: Zai Divecha</p>

<p><strong>4. Houseplants</strong><br />
I have houseplants in every room of my home, and all over my studio as well. They’re weirdly entertaining – my fellow plant-lovers will know what I’m talking about. For instance, the cactuses pictured here have been growing so fast that I’ve taken to marking their height on the wall monthly, the way my parents would measure our heights on our kitchen door frame when we were kids. (I’m currently fostering those cactuses – along with about 15 other plants – for a friend who’s on the East Coast for a year. I’m honored she entrusted me to care for her babies!) My extensive houseplant collection also serves as a source of inspiration for organic patterns, forms and textures. Nature has so much to offer artists.</p>

<p><strong>5. Cycling</strong><br />
Biking meets so many of my core needs as a human: It gets me out into nature, it gives me long stretches of quality time with friends, it gets my heart rate up and it always makes me feel emotionally and mentally refreshed. My intensity around cycling ebbs and flows, though. Some years, I really push myself, like the time I did the Death Ride: 5,000 feet of elevation over 124 miles in one day, which required some serious training. But most of the time, I just go out on joy rides. Lately, I’ve been experimenting with sports photography. I’ll sling a camera over my shoulder and try to get action shots of my friends while we’re on the move. I’ve really enjoyed layering a creative hobby on top of an athletic hobby.</p>

<p>Designed by Norwegian architect and professor <a href="https://espensurnevik.no/" target="_blank" rel="external noopener noreferrer"><strong>Espen Surnevik</strong></a>, the <a href="https://panhytter.no/" target="_blank" rel="external noopener noreferrer"><strong>PAN Cabins</strong></a> in Gjesåsen at Åsnes in the district of Hedmark, Norway give modern travelers the experience of living up in the treetops of Finnskogen (Finnish forests). With expansive views in every direction, visitors will get the experience of camping but with the comfortable amenities of a hotel.</p>

<p>There are currently two A-frame cabins on site, with one more opening later this fall. Both are set on slender steel structures eight meters off from the forest floor and are 40 square meters. Both cabins also include six beds, a bathroom, kitchen and living room with a fireplace. Electricity and floor heating will keep you warm as you take in the sights. PAN 1 will give you a birds eye view of the forest and the nature reserve of Lake Gjesåssjøen while PAN 2 shows off more of the Finnskogen.</p>

<p>Future-forward mobility vehicles are a favorite subject matter when it comes to designers imagining a more sustainable and economical transportation system, especially in the form of electric scooters. Speculative concepts like the angular <a href="https://akira.fandom.com/wiki/Shotaro_Kaneda%27s_Bike?file=Kanedabike.jpg" target="_blank" rel="noopener external noreferrer">Akira-esque</a> <a href="https://www.bmwmotorcycles.com/en/discover/stories/urban-mobility/definition-ce04.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener external noreferrer">BMW Motorrad Definition CE 04</a> forecast the global adoption of affordable and efficient electric-powered rapid commuting vehicles beyond automobiles, noting the entry point is far lower when it comes to purchasing two wheels rather than four. Following this forecast, Hong Kong design studio Oneobject’s curvilinear <strong><a href="https://www.oneobjectdesign.com/project/nebula/" target="_blank" rel="noopener external noreferrer">Nebula Alpha and Beta</a></strong> scooters propose a softer technological approach when it comes to Point A to Point B commutes.</p>

<p>Designed for “mid and long distance urban travel” the sleek curving silhouette of the Nebula Alpha is primarily defined by a sweeping 3D-knitted footrest section emerging upward into a seat. A water/dirt resistant application coats the entirety of the Alpha’s purple to pink ombré interior, accentuating the upturn motion toward the e-scooter’s stool-like seat and also hiding a small compartment.</p>

<p>Underneath this scooter’s seat houses the the Alpha’s battery compartment, accessible with an easy to lift loop for quick charge change outs.</p>

<p>And as the name implies, Nebula is paired with a secondary and smaller kick-board e-scooter concept counterpart, one intended for short distance travel. The Beta’s slim, lightweight design mirrors many of the same design features of its larger sibling, one optimized to deliver riders across the final mile(s) of their daily urban commute.</p>

<p>Inspired by the soft yet powerful force of water, founder Victoria Yakusha of <a href="https://faina.design/" target="_blank" rel="external noopener noreferrer"><strong>FAINA</strong></a> designed the <strong>PLYN</strong> sofa to bring a natural calmness to the spaces in which it sits. PLYN, which means fluidity in Ukrainian, is reminiscent of coastal stones that are formed and naturally polished by water. The PLYN soft range also includes a bed, small sofa, armchair and bench.</p>
<p><a href="https://design-milk.com/?attachment_id=456835" rel="attachment wp-att-456835"><img loading="lazy" class="alignnone size-large wp-image-456835" src="https://design-milk.com/images/2021/08/jean-sport-aviation-center-810x1218.jpg" alt="green sofa" width="810" height="1218" /></a></p>
<p><a href="https://design-milk.com/?attachment_id=456836" rel="attachment wp-att-456836"><img loading="lazy" class="alignnone size-large wp-image-456836" src="https://design-milk.com/images/2021/08/water-810x1218.jpg" alt="green sofa" width="810" height="1218" /></a></p>
<p>When speaking about the inspiration behind PLYN, Yakusha notes:</p>
<blockquote>
<p>I started thinking about acceptance and fluidity after the pandemic when we all felt on our own skin that we couldn’t affect some things. In today’s world, acceptance is often equated with weakness, vulnerability. But it has its own, hidden power. Water moves stones with its softness.</p>
</blockquote>
<p><a href="https://design-milk.com/?attachment_id=456831" rel="attachment wp-att-456831"><img loading="lazy" class="alignnone size-large wp-image-456831" src="https://design-milk.com/images/2021/08/culture-810x1218.jpg" alt="green sofa" width="810" height="1218" /></a></p>
<p><a href="https://design-milk.com/?attachment_id=456830" rel="attachment wp-att-456830"><img loading="lazy" class="alignnone wp-image-456830 size-large" src="https://design-milk.com/images/2021/08/brand-810x1218.jpg" alt="green sofa" width="810" height="1218" /></a></p>
<p>In presenting PLYN to the world, Yakusha also created an art series of photos depicting the parallel between the PLYN sofa and a human; both are consonant in their fluid lines while keeping the soft power inside. She expands:</p>
<blockquote>
<p>We have to learn from Water. Flexible and accepting, it changes the forms, but never lose its essence. Accepting the outer world and interacting with it, we’ll reveal our own soft power.</p>
</blockquote>

<p>The Cloud White pipes are in keeping with Session Goods’ preferred shape and body and feature a frosted white finish that takes the already stylish glassware to a new level of polished elegance. The company describes the color as one that’s “imbued with a sense of luxury, balance and harmony,” and these pipes are the perfect example. There is something inherently calming about its minimalist modern design and sleek shape that makes it an ideal companion for peaceful sessions of your own.</p>
<p>Not only does Session Goods create beautiful smoking accessories, but they also consider every stage of their products’ lifecycle and provide <a href="https://sessiongoods.com/pages/tutorials?utm_source=Design+Milk&utm_medium=Editorial&utm_campaign=Session_Designer_Series&utm_id=Designer+Series" target="_blank" rel="noopener external noreferrer">endless resources</a> on how to best care for your pipe, so you can enjoy it for many more sessions to come. All pieces in the Designer Series are thoughtfully designed using a durable 4mm thick borosilicate glass, and like any smoking accessory, will require cleaning and maintenance. Each pipe includes a set of cleaning caps to make deep cleaning easy and effortless – so you can get back to your next session.</p>

<p><a href="https://mystique.gr/" target="_blank" rel="noopener external noreferrer"><strong>Mystique</strong></a> is a Luxury Collection Hotel located in Santorini, Greece, designed by architect <strong>Mary Kavagia</strong> and interior designer <strong>Frank Lefebvre</strong>. Boasting panoramic views to the active volcano and the Aegean sea, 41 villas and suites are carved into the Caldera cliffs of Oia.</p>
<p><a href="https://design-milk.com/?attachment_id=461520" rel="attachment wp-att-461520"><img loading="lazy" class="alignnone size-large wp-image-461520" src="https://design-milk.com/images/2021/10/mystique_franklefebvre_00012-810x540.jpg" alt="" width="810" height="540" /></a></p>
<p>Following the emblematic Cycladic architecture, gentle curves and sculpted arches blend with a muted color palette. Traditional regional charm and natural materials are coupled with a contemporary context using the latest technology for the hotel’s facilities.</p>
<p>The largest of the suites, Holistic Villa, is located at the highest point of Mystique with an open living and dining area. Two bedrooms each feature en-suite bathrooms with accompanying rain showers. A panoramic terrace with infinity pool are topped off with sunbeds and an open-air dining area.</p>
