A Thread for Fine Design

Accomadates all types of Medias ?

great design. . .not so great English.

[pbacot]

I just wondered how official the image is. Where did it come from?
How are those big cartridges to move back and forth (no room), or are there separate print heads?

I'd want one, just to be cool.

I stumbled across it here http://www.behance.net/gallery/Retractable-Concept-Printer/5113515
But a subsequent search of The Lexmark site came up blank. It does say conceptual printer, and it certainly seems feasible, but no confirmation of its development or existence.
really too bad.

As someone who love concrete and its potential, I really fell in love with this residence.

Interesting volumes Dale but I don't share your love of concrete for interior finish ..... maybe its because I live in a climate that tends to be a bit on the cold and wet side

Fine Design? . . .I don't know. . .but pretty clever. I always wondered what could be done with these with the advent of the flash drive!

I imagine a dinner table out of Bernouli or Iomega discs...

I had my IOmega Zip Drive converted into a toaster.

[pbacot]

That's a geeky piece of furniture. I still have Teva boxes full of those Zip floppies. Actually they started to become old with re-writable CDs and DVDs. Not using those anymore either.

Now all I use to backup is TimeMachine (Mac) to HD's.

Dont know if this is the right thread for this. . .Good Design? Great Photography! Check out these amazing 360's of my beautiful state. . ..UTAH!

[david_h]

I think I would enjoy a bookshelf like this . . .if I had had a large empty white room with a wood floor to put it in and no other furniture around it.

Great turntable! I saw this amp in my head when I looked at it. Quick rough model and I am still coming to terms with render settings (obviously)but I thought they would look cool together. Could even be Mono's so there would be two of them. I think that would look sweeet! The knobs are above the feet volume on off etc

[dale]

That's perfect. Now I really do want to spin some vinyl.
Got any Ideas for speakers?

Those images and an overview article in your link reminded me of Gaudi, and a book about him in which were some photographs of his inverted catenary studies using weights and fabrics as visualization models. I believe they were used in design of Familia Sagrada.
