What The Heck is Responsive Web Design and Why You Should Care? @medianovak http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/dyt/~3/4KzMXpvYcK0/ http://designyoutrust.com/?p=441052
Whether you’re a beginner or a seasoned web professional, creating responsive designs can be confusing at first, mostly because of the radical change in thinking that’s required. As time goes on, responsive web design is drifting away from the pool of passing fads and rapidly entering the realm of standard practice. In fact, the magnitude of this paradigm shift feels as fundamental as the transition from table based layouts to CSS. Simply put, this is a very different way of designing websites and it represents the future.

The Aluminium Chair by Charles & Ray Eames http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/dyt/~3/9Wf7HpqlUHo/ http://designyoutrust.com/?p=440975
The Aluminium Chair is one of the greatest furniture designs of the twentieth century.
Originally designed for a private residence in the mid-1950s, this chair quickly reached a status of legend, making use of its innovative design and style. Charles and Ray Eames, the well know duo, abandoned the principle of the seat shell, instead stretching a panel of fabric or leather between two aluminium side members to creat an elastic and sleek seat. There are several versions of this classic mid-century design, making the Aluminium Chair Group, with a great focus on functionality, structure and ergonomics, resulting in a chair that adapts perfectly to the human body, conveying confort and beauty. The minimalistic and retro-futuristic style can fit any kind of interior and function, making it a great versatile solution. Read more…
This video shows parts of the production process, while highlighting the chair design, with a lot of details. It also includes some history about this iconic chair and shows how the human body adapts naturally to this seating

Lego House in Billund, Denmark by Bjarke Ingels Group http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/dyt/~3/sa3TmJ6IGsY/ http://designyoutrust.com/?p=440973
The LEGO Group revealed the design of the experience center “The LEGO House”. The center, which will be built in Denmark, illustrates the systematic creativity of LEGO bricks and is expected to attract 250,000 visitors annually.
The 7,600 square-meter building resembles “gigantic LEGO bricks” that are “combined and stacked in a creative way to create an imaginative experience both outside and inside.”
Bjarke Ingles, founder of BIG stated: “It’s going to be looking at LEGO from all its different aspects—LEGO as an art form, its cultural impact. When we were doing the research for it , we realized, if you would consider it just an art museum, you would be able to fill it with so much user content of such a high quality… it is one of our great dreams at BIG that we are now able to design a building for and with the LEGO group. I owe a huge personal debt to the LEGO brick, and I can see in my nephews that its role in developing the child as a creative, thinking, imaginative human being becomes ever stronger in a world in which creativity and innovation are key elements in virtually all aspects of society.”

ROZALYNN WOODS INTERIOR DESIGN – California Project http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/dyt/~3/0zaY4eC7ej4/ http://designyoutrust.com/?p=440972
The California Contemporary by Rozalynn Woods Interior Design:
“KTLA’s Gayle Anderson featured this Southern California contemporary home on her TV program. The choice to use simple and clean lines in the interior helps to soften the dramatic architecture. Ingenuity appears in all areas of the home from a custom backlit horizontal wood slat fireplace to the Master Bathroom’s opening to a small exterior garden.”
This Project from Rozalynn Woods Interior Design is located in Southern California. The main adjectives that come to our mind when we see the photos are style, chic and a minimal influence touch that gives the place a vibrant, fresh and clean ambience.
Do you feel the same way? What do you think about this project?
