      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 😄

                  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.

                          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

                                  That's perfect. Now I really do want to spin some vinyl.

                                      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.

                                          Ah Yes Gaudi.
                                          Here is a photo of one of his string models. I read somewhere once that the models were 1:10 scale, and the weight placed on the strings was 1/10,000 the load they would carry.
