This time the designer came back with a very interesting concept, by using three thousand translucent drinking straws he constructed a

. Straws are such a funky and playful material, I guess the reason most of us like them is because it takes us back to our childhood constructions. The three thousand translucent straws have been interwoven to form a dense, spherical lampshade. The use of translucent straws is surprisingly beautiful despite the plastic clutter. I guess what makes it so appealing is the transparency of the straws, as well as its size. In any other case size wouldn’t be an issue, however, in order to construct this lampshade and interconnect the straws, it takes Fishlock seven days with a total diameter of 80cm.

There is no loss of material (except from the drilled holes), it is not supported with wood or metal or other. The Structure is self-supporting, the flax rope contracts the chair and finishes the chair aesthetically. The shell and base are not separated from the sheet but remain connected. Starting from a square surface, the felt sheet is twisted and twisted again, just like a scarf, ending in a symmetric and but also an asymmetric object, this is literally forms follows function. more

SONY | Eye Candy

eXthemaX — Thu, 04 Mar 2010 12:05:12 +0000

Superfad’s new in-store campaign for Sony is a startlingly beautiful and surreal homage to Sony’s global brand message of “make.believe” and a tribute to the pleasure of “Eye Candy”. Unfolding in three parts, “Birth of Color,” “Explosion of Color,” and “Release of Color,” the project was directed and produced by Superfad and will be seen in stores and trade shows throughout the world.

The concept was inspired by the idea that from one’s imagination anything is possible. Drawing from the theatrical world of fashion photography, Superfad chose moments of visual drama and magic, with spherical objects representing the dot in “make.believe” as a connecting through-line.

Superfad Director/Executive Creative Director Will Hyde captured a live action, slow motion narrative with imagery that would showcase the picture value of Sony BRAVIA high definition televisions including color fidelity and detail. The project’s effects and animation, completed in just under three weeks, was creative directed by Carlos Stevens.

The project keenly represents Superfad’s methodology; one that eschews a singular signature style in favor of applying project-specific creative approaches to reveal the unexpected. With Sony’s “Eye Candy,” the blending of live action and animation comes together in a seamless marriage of visual intensity and wonder.
