Picture Eco Design Process from Picture Organic Clothing on Vimeo.

The impact of a product starts way before the extraction of raw materials. It is during the design process that our designers choose materials to use, their quantity, their quality and their performance.

We are not perfect; working to continuously improve, and look for permanent solutions; always aiming to be more environmentaly-friendly. It is important for us that our products have strong environmentally friendly values and at the same time are financially accessible to everybody.

L’impact d’un produit se définit bien avant la phase d’extraction des matières premières. C’est lors de la phase de conception que nos designers choisissent les matériaux utilisés, leur quantité, leur qualité et leur performance.

Nous ne sommes pas parfaits, nous nous inscrivons dans une démarche de progrès continu, et recherchons en permanence des solutions toujours plus respectueuses de l’environnement. Nous nous attachons à ce que nos produits à forte valeur environnementale soient accessibles financièrement à tous.

ONZA, the new temptation by MUT Design from MUT design on Vimeo.

Inspired by chocolate, this irresistible collection of ceramic tiles is a minimalist and conceptual project

ONZA (ounce)

(From lat. uncia) a. A unit of weight in the US Customary System, an avoirdupois unit equal to 437.5 grains (28.5 grams). b. Each of the parts or equal squares into which the chocolate bar is divided.

c. New collection of ceramic tiles created by MUT Design for Harmony, the Spanish group Peronda’s most irresistible line

MUT Design surprises again the ceramic sector with an absolutely irresistible collection. Because the latest design by the Valencian study smells like chocolate. After that first collaboration that gave birth to the mythical collection named Scales, MUT Design and Harmony by Peronda Group come together again to present Onza, MUT’s most tempting work. Inspired by chocolate bars, in its texture, production process and how these melt down with heat, MUT Design’s new collection for Harmony wants to be the most minimalist, conceptual and masculine design devised by the studio up to now. Onza is composed by just three ceramic pieces with invisible joints, allowing infinite compositions when assembled thanks to their modularity. It is possible either combining repeatedly one of the pieces or playing with the three options. Each and every one of MUT Design’s ceramic tiles misses a tiny bit so when they get together, both pieces fuse one into another shaping a wholly new and unique element.

Developed through careful and rigorous innovative methods, Onza is an ample and versatile collection, suitable for any space. It comes in three different colors: Grey,Terracotta and White Ceramic to evoke different sensations.

Weaving Shibusa, The World Premiere presented by Self Edge from Weaving Shibusa on Vimeo.

Weaving Shibusa is the story of Japanese craftsmanship and dedication, shown through their love and fascination of denim. The film gives unprecedented access to the mysterious and storied industry of Japanese denim, told by the only people who can; world-renowned vintage denim experts, the highly regarded "Osaka 5", responsible for Japan's denim revival, as well as passionate innovators who's unparalleled work has made "Japanese Denim" synonymous with the highest quality possible.

What makes Japanese denim special is not only the materials, machinery, and techniques, but also the people and ideas behind the process. This film reveals the intense passion and insight behind Japanese denim, but also poses the question; what is the future of these garments that are so deeply rooted in the past?

A film by Devin Leisher, Erik Motta, and Mehdi Ahmadi. Premiering at The Castro Theatre in San Francisco, August 6th, 2016.

How to Make a Tennis Ball from Benedict Redgrove on Vimeo.

I was commissioned to make a film and shoot a set of images by ESPN for Wilson, to show the manufacturing process of their tennis balls for the US Open. We flew to the factory, shot the film and stills in one day then flew home. Its an amazingly complex manufacture, requiring 24 different processes to make the final ball. It was hot, loud and the people who worked there, worked fast. So much beauty in each stage. I love the mechanics of how things are made, it fills me with great pleasure. I hope you enjoy the film.

Preservation // DTS x Knickerbocker from Death to Stock on Vimeo.

As most brands move toward what’s fast, cheap, and easy, Knickerbocker Manufacturing Co. reminds us the value of the opposite — away from speed, away from mass, away from thoughtless consumption.

When we heard about what Knickerbocker was doing we decided to spend some time with them in their studio — watching them produce their incredible pieces and hearing about their work/creative/consumption philosophies. We decided to partner up on this photo pack (video pack for Premium subscribers) and we couldn’t be prouder to share a slice of their story.

Cilllia - 3D Printed Hair Structures for Surface Texture, Actuation and Sensing from Tangible Media Group on Vimeo.

Looking into the Nature, hair has numerous functions such as to provide warmth, adhesion, locomotion, sensing, a sense of touch, as well as it’s well known aesthetic qualities. This work presents a computational method of 3D printing hair structures. It allows us to design and generate hair geometry at 50 micrometer resolution and assign various functionalities to the hair. The ability to fabricate customized hair structures enables us to create super fine surface texture; mechanical adhesion property; new passive actuators and touch sensors on a 3D printed artifact. We also present several applications to show how the 3D-printed hair can be used for designing everyday interactive objects.
