Vitra Summit 2020: Virtual exchange and discussions about the working world of tomorrow On October 22 and 23, the design institution Vitra invites to its first global (and virtual!) Summit: In a streaming format, guests such as Stefano Boeri, Virgil Abloh, Joseph Grima or Esther Perel will discuss the working world of the future - how it will have to adapt in the long term, face a new reality. The speakers come from a wide variety of fields: from design to architecture and museums to yoga and psychotherapy. And they all address the question of how work and life can be designed safely in the future without neglecting social as well as individual well-being. On October 22 and 23, the Vitra Summit will discuss spaces in the broadest sense. The Swiss design company is hosting its first global streaming summit: a two-day virtual event with panels and workshops on the topic of "working environments." It will shed light on how this is changing significantly - and how it can be o...

Sit down! - All Plastic Chair WERBUNG| As you make your bed, so you sleep. But the same is true for sitting á la how you sit, so you throne. On average, we spend up to eight hours or more sitting each day. So it's time to look at the most beautiful, interesting and comfortable places to sit. We start our new series "Sit down!" with the All Plastic Chair by Jasper Morrison from Vitra. Jasper Morrison / Source: Vitra At first, a chair made of solid plastic sounds rather like the common stacking variants from the local hardware store. Outdoor pool, allotment and permanent campers say hello. Far from it! Not so with the design by Jasper Morrisson. Vitra has been producing his design since 2016 and has been conquering the hearts of design lovers ever since. Ours too! Jasper Morrison grew up in New York and studied, among other places, at the Royal College of Art in London and at the Hochschule für Bildende Künste in Berlin. His designs are characterized by reduced and grace...

Door #3 Sorry, the requested sweepstakes has already expired! Prize Opening door #3 reveals a real work of art. Because today we are giving away a tapestry by designer Jaime Hayon for Nanimarquina. Door #3 of the Advent calendar by AD The "Silhouette" collection is Spanish company Nanimarquina's second collaboration with designer Jaime Hayon and includes five indoor and outdoor rugs. Each model is adorned with Hayon's signature filigree brushstrokes, the arrangement of which results in nine figures. They can all be seen from different angles, making it possible to place the rug individually in the room. In addition to the design, it is also worth highlighting the manufacturing technique and meticulous craftsmanship, for which the family company Nanimarquina is particularly known. Because the combination of both factors ensures that the robust carpets can also be used in public areas. Would you also like to decorate your walls with pure wool? The tapestry that y...

A real home: This is how Maggie Gyllenhaal and Peter Sarsgaard live in Brooklyn In the middle of Park Slope, actress Maggie Gyllenhaal and director Peter Sarsgaard live in a magical townhouse - that could easily star in one of the creative couple's movies. "14 million fireplaces" - that's how many there are in the Brooklyn townhouse that Maggie Gyllenhaal calls home with her husband Peter Sarsgaard. "Fourteen million!" the actress repeats with a laugh. It's not quite that many, of course - but even if the Gyllenhaal-Sarsgaards didn't have a single fireplace in their four-story home, the rooms would radiate enough warmth. "There are lots of places here to cozy up with a book," says director Sarsgaard. On a sleepy street in Park Slope (a Brooklyn neighborhood known for its high stroller density and laid-back restaurants), the house the two bought in 2006, with its high ceilings and southern exposure, was a bull's-eye for the creative...

Germany, your creatives: Filmmaker Jovana Reisinger from Munich I prefer to be Donna €€€ and make movies, I also have talent as a writer, currently I can't do that 24/7 yet, the rest are prostitution jobs or I support my lover with his projects. I'm in Munich and not thinking about moving away from here all the time. Athens is my new hot spot. "Anyone who has a smartphone can become a filmmaker" 2.) How did you get into it? Let's face it, anyone who has a smartphone can become a filmmaker. The difference is that I also write good scripts and can edit movies above average, although I'm not a fan of dialogue. After all, many people want to be in a movie, so the budget questions don't arise. My goal is to make the film shoot more of a happening, where people drink, shoot, parrot my lines, slip into costumes and roles, etc. I've noticed that I like to write good scripts. I've realized that I like being a director because things have to go my way, ...

Digital is better: new control for the bathroom from Dornbracht The digitalization of our everyday lives is a reality that can hardly be reversed. The central question is therefore how user-friendly the technologies are and how naturally we can use them. And whether they really meet our needs. Today, at the ISH 2013 trade fair in Frankfurt, the German company Dornbracht is presenting the answer for the bathroom: Smart Water technology. Smart Water integrates numerous options for digitalization in the bathroom. It is an intelligent system that interconnects components and conveniently facilitates and individualizes applications. The core of Smart Water is a control element that combines the advantages of digital and analog worlds with a display switch and two rotary controls. The controls can be operated as usual with a single hand movement, while the display offers intuitive operation at the touch of a finger, but without complicated menu navigation. The display is a kind of elec...
