明年今日

Retre 发表于 2006-12-31 23:29:06

去年今日,此时此刻与在北京的兄弟姐妹们正逛完后海,在钟楼前等待新年的钟声。一年时间就这样biu的一下过去了,去北京是因为一个梦想,后来那个梦想暂时没有实现,于是我一路向东杀到sh,在这里开始我的设计长征。
站在鼓楼前我许下的愿望是什么我已经忘记,不过以我这等粗俗之人,肯定是金钱、工作、美女之类的吧
总的来说,06年因该算是幸福美满的,虽然中间有很多曲折,好歹工作找到了,面包有了偶尔还能吃顿荤的,也算是一个happy ending。anyway,对于像我辈这种YY功能强大,目光“犀利窄小”的人来说,一切的困难和挫折在尝到一丁点的甜头之后便会被我抛掷到脑后,咂巴着嘴巴在阳光下,草地上YY它一下午。所以,我虔诚的在这里祈祷,在明年的这个时候,请让我能在这个时候,躺在舒服的地方幸福的咂巴着小嘴会心的微笑。祝福我吧,所有我爱的人和爱我的人们

再过,几分钟就要2007年了,窗外似乎有人在放焰火,在灿烂的夜空下,我祝福所有我认识的,喜欢的,讨厌的人们,2007大家都有个happy ending:)

PS:比较意外收到zw的电话和xzmm的祝福,在这个孤独寂寞的夜晚,这样的问候很温暖:)

设计大师-Naoto Fukasawa

Retre 发表于 2006-12-30 20:33:58

Naoto Fukasawa,更喜欢他的中文译名——深泽直人

忘记是什么时候开始喜欢上他的作品了,依稀记得是那款白色Muji的CDPlayer,朴实无华是我对它的评价,再之后便是在坛子里看到他为+-0设计的一系列产品,简单到无以复加,细处却又可以让你细细品味,有别于Starck的玩世幽默和Colani的自我,深泽直人的设计透多出一丝的禅味,他的设计给我一种宁静、平和、内敛和平衡的感觉。
之前我有点惊讶于他的设计出身——IDEO,从89—02年长达十几年服务于同一家公司这种作风是日本设计师的一个习惯(目前似乎这种习惯在被打破-一些年轻的设计师在国际舞台上开始展露头角——此乃后话),与印象中的美国设计大相径庭在IDEO日本的Fukasawa却很好的保留了日本的味道,这个问题值得我们玩味。我们可以发现在不同的设计领域,这种在国际化的同时对本土文化的继承与发展的本领值得我们的借鉴,比如安藤,比如三宅一生,当然还有深泽。

有人说这个男人似乎在50岁到来的时候才鲜艳绽放,其实他一直在那里绽放,只是人们现在才发现他罢了。今年的上海双年展的那个装置很深泽,我很喜欢

在google上搜索可以很容易的搜到一些关于他的资料,当然在这里我还是有必要将他们搬迁过来,以我的形式对大师致敬

原创是非

Retre 发表于 2006-12-29 22:33:58

在坛子里看到一个帖子,大意是某男L说某男D严重抄袭他的作品,长达2年时间,L最终忍无可忍而将“真相”大白于天下。其实这样的争论今年来在各大设计论坛里已经屡见不鲜,但某男D的作风好像有些过头了,不过这年头啥不能抄阿,抄一个红一个,看人家“花儿”自从抄一把之后,开得多么红。不过似乎这些都是圈外的事,我民也就看个热闹罢了,可这个某男D,说实话俺之前还是挺关注人家的博di,做的插画俺觉得还是不错di,结果这不是侮辱我民的智商么,偶尔抄抄也就算了,谁没有脑袋瓜子不灵,顺不过来的时候啊,合理的借鉴我民是可以理解di,可您这样就不对鸟。

原创是条不归路,要么拐个弯柳暗花明,要么撞到南墙头破血流。可柳暗花明的事不是天天能够有的,这不客户催得急么,没等看见柳树就被掐死在路边了,所以咱的口号是,di liu个水壶,给路边的野花多浇浇水动动土啥的,怎么遭看着好歹也是多花啊。咳,说到底多少好点子不是被钱给逼死的哇,所以等咱有了钱,不饿了不慌了,蹲在那边慢慢搞原创哇。有此可以推测为什么人家发达资本主义国家人民的点子多鸟

PS:这几天公司培训solidworks,一个bt的软件,好久没有这样刻苦的专研过软件问题鸟,有些枯燥却比较轻松,数据建模就像是做数学题,怀念那些做题的日子,想想都不相信竟过去这么久了,用zhu的话说真是how time flies!阿

我欣赏的设计大师们之marc newson

Retre 发表于 2006-12-24 23:34:06

刚才回头看了一圈,发现除了开始的几天俺,还会偶尔提及与专业相关的话语,剩下的大多是满腹的牢骚与流水的记账,完全没有设计师的影子。恩,决定从今开始做个系列大师推荐和优秀设计作品推荐的专题。既能理清记忆又能起到资料备份的作用。

今天首先推荐设计师Marc Newson
我可以负责任说Marc是当今世界设计最具有影响力的设计师之一,他成名于自己设计并手工打造的富有未来气息的Lockheed Lounge以及Pod of Drawers柜子,他涉及的领域极为宽泛,从室内设计到概念汽车,飞机的设计,他设计的产品为各大品牌融入了新的气息和销量,他喜欢organic的形态语言,产品大多圆润简洁,未来感十足。
他的个人简介:

Marc Newson is one of the most accomplished and influential designers of his generation. At 42, he has already worked across a wide range of disciplines to create everything from chairs, household objects, a bicycle and a concept car to restaurants, a recording studio and interiors of private and commercial jets, for clients based in Europe, North America, Asia and Australia.

Born in Sydney, Australia, Newson spent his childhood travelling in Europe and Asia, before studying jewellery and sculpture at Sydney College of the Arts. He started experimenting with furniture design as a student and, after graduating in 1984, was awarded a grant from the Australian Crafts Council, and staged an exhibition - featuring the Lockheed Lounge - at the Roslyn Oxley Gallery in Sydney.

When the Japanese entrepreneur, Teruo Kurosaki, offered to put his designs into production, Newson moved to Tokyo, where he lived and worked from 1987 to 1991. Kurosaki's company, Idée, manufactured such pieces as the OOrgone Lounge, Black Hole Table and Felt Chair, which were widely exhibited in Asia and Europe.

Newson set up a studio in Paris in 1991, and won commissions from prestigious European manufacturers including Flos for lighting, Cappellini and Moroso for furniture. He formed a joint venture, the Ikepod Watch Company, to manufacture the watches he designed, and produced limited editions of aluminium furniture including the Event Horizon Table and Orgone Chair. During the mid-late 1990s, Newson also designed a series of restaurants - Coast in London, Manchester's Mash & Air, Osman in Cologne and Canteen in Manhattan - the interior of Syn, a Tokyo recording studio and a retail system for Belgian designer, Walter Von Beirendonck's W.&L.T. street wear label.

In 1997, Newson moved to London, where he set up Marc Newson Ltd as a larger studio capable of tackling more ambitious industrial projects. He has since designed mass manufactured glassware for Iittala, kitchen and bathroom accessories for Alessi, furniture, lighting and household objects for Magis, B&B Italia, Idée and Dupont Corian. Newson has also designed vehicles such as a bicycles, the MN01, for Denmark's Biomega, a concept car, the 021C for Ford, and the interiors of a Falcon 900B private jet. In 2002-3 he designed the Lever House Restaurant in the famous Lever House Building in Manhattan, New York, a Business Class seat, Skybed for Qantas, a cookware range for Tefal and a bathroom range, The Newson Suite, for Ideal Standard. He opened a second studio in Paris.

In 2004/5 Newson received the commission to design entire aircraft interiors including airport lounges for the new A380 fleet for Qantas. He designed Talby, a mobile telephone for Japan's KDDI, the uniforms worn by the Australian Olympic team (in collaboration with Richard Allan), and worn at the 2004 Athens Olympic Games, a shoe, Zvezdochka, for Nike, collections of clothing for G-Star, and 'Scope' a range of luggage for Samsonite. He designed the bar and the sixth floor of the Hotel Puerta America in Madrid. In April 2005, Marc Newson was named as one of Time magazine's Top 100 most influential people in the world.

In 2006, Marc is appointed Creative Director of Qantas Airways, and continues working on the A380 interiors and airport lounges. He designs the Marie-Hélène de Taillac (MHT) jewellery store in Tokyo and the Azzedine Alaia shoe boutique in Paris. He creates a presentation magnum champagne bottle in a strictly limited edition set for Dom Perignon.

As well as winning numerous awards, including five Good Design Awards from the Chicago Atheneum, Newson has exhibited extensively. He created Bucky, a sculptural installation for the Fondation Cartier pour l'art contemporain in Paris in 1995, and a major retrospective of his work was held at the Powerhouse Museum in Sydney (August 2001 - February 2002).

In 2003, Newson was commissioned by the Fondation Cartier to design a piece of his choosing, coinciding with his 40th birthday. The result was Kelvin40, a concept jet, exhibited at the Fondation Cartier in Paris (January - May 2004) and included in Marc's first major European retrospective originally staged at the Groninger Museum, Holland (May - September 2004) and consequently at London's Design Museum (October 2004 - January 2005). An exhibition of Marc Newson new limited edition pieces will be presented by the Gagosian gallery, New York, in January 2007.

Newson's designs are present in most major permanent museum collections including the Museum of Modern Art in New York, London's Design Museum, Mus閑 national d'Art moderne - Centre Georges Pompidou and the Vitra Design Museum. A book on Marc Newson's work was published by Booth-Clibborn Editions in 1999, and one by Thames & Hudson in 2001. A DVD was released in January 2005, and a monograph for Phaidon is planned.
Marc Newson is Adjunct Professor in Design at Sydney College of the Arts.
