Twenty-four Hours to Document the Human Condition of Our Cities
Sabrina Merolla Follow on Twitter 22 September 2015
Sabrina Merolla. Sept. 18, 2015: A blackboard announces the start of 24Hours Project's Exhibition, as people pass through the glass doors of Slash Gallery and Bar in Naples, Italy.
[B]orn in 2012 as a restricted collective mobile photo project, the 24Hour Project has quickly become a huge event, involving more than 2000 persons around the world only this year. In occasion of their exhibition and workshop in Naples (Italy), we have met Renzo Grande, one of the two creators of this brilliant street photo project.
Interview with Renzo Grande
Sabrina Merolla: Renzo Grande, you are a "street documentary photographer from Lima with a bed in New York", as you write on your Instagram account. What led you firstly to street photography and why, at a certain point in your career, did you chose to start using a mobile device?
Renzo Grande: I have always loved photography but, when I moved to New York, I found myself in a place where the city itself made me desire to constantly take pictures of it. It is always so very cinematic!
Back then I did not really know what type of photography I wanted to develop. I experimented with many types of photography: night events, fashion, products adv, even paparazzi. But I was always interested to people and portraits. So, we may say it all started with me trying to take portraits of human beings and that was also a kind of personal therapy. Because we all have different issues, different problems and I started taking my lunch break at work as a time for myself -as a way out of the routine of my own thoughts, a moment to go around and take photos of the new things I was experiencing on NY's streets. I tried to capture them. Moreover, I wanted to find a way to share them with the others, too.
But it is more difficult with a big equipment. Instead, at that very time – three or four years ago – it was already possible to shoot good pictures with mobiles. It actually became a discreet way to shoot without interrupting the flow of things around, being able to capture those emotions that I was feeling and seeing at the moment. But, of course, it was a way to express and rediscover myself – my own way to therapeutically deal with the personal problems I had at the moment, too.
How did you meet Sam Smootherman, cofounder with you of 24Hour Project?
Our project started four years ago, when we met through Instagram. We only met, physically, two years after the start of the 24Hour Project, when we finally organized an exhibition in Los Angeles. Then I went to Sam's house and we finally met. As many other people having a daily interaction on Instagram, there was something deeper between us. It was like meeting an old friend for the first time. Because the daily interaction with someone who shares your own passion can build bounds through the net. It is not all about looking at pictures saying "I like it", "I don't like it", "I really like it" or "I totally dislike it". It is more than that. Since people do not only share pictures, they share their feelings and, if someone else is touched from those emotions, many deep human bonds can be built.
The project probably started because I was always walking on the same streets – going from home to work and from work to home – and I was basically bored of it all. Then I posted a picture, asking if there was someone who wanted to show me his/her routine at the mean time. Then Sam, who is from Los Angeles, wrote to me asking to talk privately, because he seemed to have an idea. So we discussed it and, at first, we planned on doing a comparison between the streets of Los Angeles and New York for twenty-four hours. We kept on talking about it for more months and then we invited other close Instagram friends to do the same thing. It was 2012 and we were in sixty-five to experiment the project for the first time. With that basic group of sixty-five we had a base for the content of the project, which was: documenting the different human conditions of people in different cities, during the same twenty-four hours.
The following year we became 300 photographers, on 2014 we were 900 and this year there were more than 2000 persons documenting their daily routine in many cities around the world.
Sabrina Merolla. Sept. 18, 2015: Local Igers and the audience gather and chat during the exhibition.
You always talk about a street "documentary" project. So what is the next step for it? Now that there are so many persons taking part to the project, do you have any intention to edit it as a unitary documentary, or do you prefer to keep it scattered on, occasionally organizing traveling exhibitions?
The next step is still to be able to share what each photographer goes through, while discovering their city. Now we do not really organize a traveling exhibition, but multiple exhibitions in different locations and that will keep on going sure. But the experience that the participants go through is not being shared yet. We do not share if they are meeting new people or not, we are not showing whether they are going back to their old schools, whether they are walking the streets that they usually walk on, but at a different time. We still cannot show how they feel connected with the other participants, even if they are walking alone on an empty street in Poland, or a crowded street in the Philippines. So I am trying to find a way to tell that part of the story. Perhaps it could be a video documentary, having different persons filming the process in different cities. But for sure that's what is next: sharing the experience and feelings of all the participants.
So, could we say that, even if the topic stays the "human condition", it actually is a project about human connections?
Yes, that is true. This is the point: while people share those human conditions they are witnessing to in their own cities, it is an opportunity for them to tell about it in their own perspective. So people do not think anymore that Paris is only the Tour Eiffel and New York, suddenly, is not only Times Square. There is poverty, there is solitude and hunger, smiles, so people get to see and visually experience the real connection among the all of us, as humans. But yes, you are right, this is what creates a deeper connection between the participants. It is about a city being more human, beyond stereotypes, it is about going out there and feeling connected with whoever you will find on your way.
Did you ever follow any of the @Everyday Projects as @EverydayAfrica, @EverydayAsia, @EverydayEgypt, etc?
I think the EveryDay Projects started around two years ago in Africa and, yes, I think it is an amazing way to see the real life of real people from many remote places and it is being great to follow them. But there are differences between our projects. Because usually the persons posting through the Everyday Projects are journalists, professional photographers chosen to do it and they daily chose what they want to share. But in the 24hour Project, while you are discovering yourself by doing the project, there is no filter. (…) Everyone can spontaneously take part to the project and this is amazing to me. It is more amateur. Maybe this is the secret of the success of our project: keeping it humble and open to anyone who wants to share their own view on their city. For example, this year there was, in Jakarta, a kid that was only fifteen years old and she was sharing her day in school. She showed as she woke up, how she was taking her transportation to school, her doing her homework, her parents. So it was her own way to share her story.
Ours is a more personal and amateur way to show our own worlds. It is not only about showing, for example, that there is an injustice, somewhere in the world.
Let us step back to a more general topic: mobile photography. What the potentials and limits of it?
The potential is the possibility to share everything at every time of the day. Because in this particular time of human history we all are addicted to our phones. We need them, because those smart phones are part of our daily communications. So, potentially, using it we can share everything that we see, everywhere at every time. The limits of it all, to me, are just people. It is more about them thinking that their equipment is not enough, that smart phones have a lower quality, because they start to compare their phones with a professional DSLR camera. That is the time when all the problems have a start. So the only real problem with mobile photography is actually people, it has nothing to do with the actual mobile phone. There are so many stories and situations in which mobile photographies have been used on big magazines, for reportages or visual documentaries. As for the very start of the riots in Detroit, when a mobile picture made a cover on Times Magazine, because it showed a story, it witnessed how the policemen chased a black guy. And that one was one of the pictures of the year. It does not really matter with which camera or mobile camera it was taken. So, the real limit of mobile photography is people, who are restricting themselves from using it. (…)
More than that, I would like to point out that unnumbered professional photographers use their mobile phones to take pictures everyday. Because it is a good training, a good way to exercise the eyes' muscles and it helps them to improve on their daily job. And many of them have started to come to shoot and to come to social media to practice and share and test their work and its audience. So, to me, those photographers that are not using mobile phones… well, they are missing out so many ways in which to improve their work. This to say that I would highly recommend to any photographer to use a mobile phone, to practice and to take it to the next level. There are so many projects out there that use mobiles. There are even films made with mobiles… At this point of date, it is very hard to recognize what was taken with a mobile phone and what was not.

CLOUDKICKER TO TOUR WITH TESSERACT AND INTRONAUT!
Every once and a while I come across something so awesome, it causes my eyeballs to gouge themselves out of my head. This is one of those cases.
The underground legend Cloudkicker is rumored to be hitting the road! You heard right… Ben Sharp – businessman by day, musical genius by night – might actually be leaving the office to perform live music! Keep in mind, this isn't guaranteed to happen. But considering the sources, I'd bet that the chances are quite good (the news was broken by the legends over at The PRP).
Furthermore, if this is true, he won't be touring with just anyone. He'll be playing alongside headliner TesseracT and Intronaut on the "Altered State North America Tour 2014"! That's one helluva show (hopefully) waiting to happen.
We'll keep you in the loop on this one. In the meantime, enjoy the music! And if you haven't heard of Cloudkicker before, click HERE. All of his music is available for a "name your price" download! And yes, FREE is a price.
THIS IS LEGITIMATELY HAPPENING. I don't have time to write more at the moment.

Keiner da - Canada podcast!
CBC Radio did a podcast about "The Art and Commerce of Fan Love" mentioning the Jemma movement. Listen to a wonderful and hilarious Jemma fan talk about her experience with Jemma while she recounts the events that took place over the last month. Also there is an interesting bit about how the broadcasters react and what possibilities there could be.
So Emma alluded to it in an episode before - Keiner da - aka Canada is Jemmaaddicted, too. But wait, it's quite the opposite of 'Keiner da' - (No one there) - we're all here boosting the train of fanlove to break through the laws of the usual constrictions put upon us by space, time and most importantly the broadcasts.
"The Art and Commerce of Fan Love"
"What happens when you bring together the internet, a niche international fan base, and an obscure German soap opera? Quite possibly, the future of television. Hand aufs Herz fan Clare Lawlor and digital strategist Xiaochang Li tell us all about the world of fan subbers – people who painstakingly do their own translations and subtitles on programs they love, and then put them up on the Web on places like YouTube. It sounds harmless and probably good for publicity, right? Well, the broadcasters aren't always so keen. Copyright, dontcha know. But could it make good business sense to allow your fans to do it? (Runs 16:14)"
Thank you Clare and CBC for bringing us this really cool podcast which gives a lot of inside in the ongoings of the gap between fans and broadcasts.
Well, since my first langage is French, I will write this in French and I hope you don't mind. It's Jemma International, after all :-) D'abord merci pour ce podcast avec Clare que j'aime beaucoup. Ce phénomène que nous vivons présentement est effectivement très spécial. Mais si le lien entre commerce et fanlove est intéressant, je trouve qu'on devrait davantage se préoccuper du lien entre l'art et le "Fanlove". Je suis une grande fan de Jemma, mais je me demande parfois si on ne mets pas trop de pression sur les writers et sur Lucy et Kasia. Les artistes ont besoin d'espace pour créer. Bien sûr, ils ont besoin de l'amour du public mais en même temps, cela peut devenir lourd. Enfin, je crois que notre plus grande responsabilité en tant que fan n'est pas pour le broadcaster mais pour ces artistes à qui nous devons beaucoup. Voilà, c'est ce que je voulais dire. Merci et à bientôt.
I love the title of the Podcast! Our Canadian friends were having lots of fun with that on one of the forums :) I also appreciate the post from Marie-Helene. In all the hype it can sometimes be forgotten the pressure on the actors and writers. I am sure it is a double edged sword of feeling great about their success and the love of fans but then there is the pressure that goes along with that.
I also have to say that being from Arkansas and hearing that on the podcast was pretty funny because I had communicated with her and wondered what's the chance that I am sitting in Arkansas USA on some forum from who knows where reading about a German Soap Opera and someone suggests a Canadian podcast and I hear her mention Arkansas! The possibility of that makes me just go wow how great is it with all these people from all over getting together in harmony to chat and talk about two fictional lesbian high school students! Just crazy actually LOL!
Thanks again for ALL you guys do here!


Oceanographic processes at coastal scales present a number of differences with respect to deep water oceanography, which result in higher prediction errors. In shallow water coastal domains the bottom topography, via the sea-bed boundary condition, exerts a strong control on the resulting wave and current fields. In addition to this, other factors need to be accounted for, such as the relevance of the tidal influence, stratification and mixing effects, land boundary condition (affecting the wind fields), the presence of distributed run off and point-wise river mouths.
Moreover, the coupling between wind, waves, currents and sediments at limited scales, or even the choice of the numerical strategy (including the option between nested meshes or a variable grid) may also play a critical role in the quality of the predictions.
Coastal observations are therefore necessary to drive numerical models, combining point-wise data from multi variable buoys, and high frequency radar images and a number of satellite images, the accuracy of which however tends to degrade as we get closer to the shoreline border.
Because of the above mentioned reasons, it is timely to discuss the recent advances in integrated ocean-atmosphere-sediment modeling approach, in the physics of coupling mechanisms and coastal in-situ observations.

Multi-mode infinitely variable transmission, with electromechanical power split and electric power generation , allowing its use in the tractor itself (onboarding) or by electrified implements (offboarding). John Deere and Joskin have worked together to come up with a highly productive solution based on a traction assist system for liquid manure application. The eAutoPower infinitely variable transmission replaces hydrostatic modules with an electromechanical module that delivers up to 100kW of electric power in the form of 700 V direct current (DC) or three-phase 480 V alternating current (AC) for several applications and implements.
SAME DEUTZ-FAHR IBÉRICA, S.A. – SAME
Frutteto CVT ActiveStee rear wheel steering system for tractors
2+2 RM type vineyard tractor with CVT and four-wheel drive. With the steering control in the usual position it acts like a conventional tractor turning the front axle wheels. It allows a proportional position in which instead of turning the front axle wheels it also turns the rear axle wheels in the opposite direction which reduces the turning radius; it permits a delayed proportionality of a few seconds on the rear axle wheels (for working with towed implements) and steering with the front and rear axle wheels turning in the same direction for lateral movement. It has a simplified CVT for compact tractors (hydro-mechanical/summing planetary) and the front axle is suspended with independent wheels

KUHN IBÉRICA, S.A.U. (RAUCH)
MultiRate small-scale metering and distribution system for pneumatic fertilizer spreaders
The MultiRate metering system allows separate control for each individual outlet manifold. With a working width of 36 m and 30 outlet manifolds, it can control the fertilizer amount separately for each individual outlet. Each manifold can also be turned on and off individually. The air flow required to convey the fertilizer is provided by two turbines. The distributing and metering devices are in 30 separate sections, 15 on the left and 15 on the right of the machine so that the fertilizer can be metered separately in each of the air ducts and transfer from there to the 30 individual outlet manifolds.Each measuring shaft is driven individually by a 48V BLDC motor with 50 W rated power and 100 W maximum power. Exact control of speed in a range of 5-100 rev/min and of mass flow rate in a range of 0.5-10 kg/min. With a driving speed of 16 km/h and working width of 1-1.2 m per outlet manifold, a fertilizer mass flow rate of 0.5-10 kg/min allows spreading quantities of 1.5-30 g/m² to be measured
SmartshiftTMintermediate gearbox for start up of high-density Bigbaler
The transmission of movement from the power take-off includes the SmartShift™ intermediate gearbox: with two-speed start-up, overload protection and smart brake system, large diameter flywheel: rotates at great speed (1440 rev/min). Two gears move the output shaft at 48 rev/min with arms that prolong the piston stroke to 748 mm. The start-up process connects and adjusts the tractor power take-off to 850 rev/min and the start-up process is activated from the monitor. The SmartShift™ gearbox connects 1st gear smoothly and then engages the 2nd gear. Finally the operator receives a message on the monitor to adjust the tractor PTO to 1000 rev/min; at that moment the flywheel will reach 1440 rev/min
AG-GROUP
DmaX AI-Sense mechatronic modular system for rotary harrow control
AI-Sense is an additional feature of the IA (Alpego Intelligence) control system comprised by 2 modules:AI-Guard, to check vital machine and maintenance parameters. AI-Move for centralized management of all machine movements. There is a direct relationship between the refining obtained when working with a rotary harrow and changing certain of its parameters : 1. rotation speed of rotors / 2. work speed / 3. working depth / 4. work load on levelling bar. It is always possible to act on the first 2 parameters (no. 1 and 2) but the AI-Sense system also enables the other 2 parameters (no. 3 and 4) to be changed, significantly optimizing the work experience, preventing unnecessary consumption and simplifiying adjustment manoeuvres
ARCUSIN, S.A.
Articulated device for collecting silage bales on ground
New loading device to pick up square silage bales from the ground and raise them to the platform of a self-loading machine with greater precision and better control. The system enables bales to be collected with greater precision and better control thanks to an articulated system that brings the terminal to ground level, reducing the step by means of a damping system that eliminates bale impact. Bales can be picked up at a higher travelling speed than that in current systems and collected more easily, reducing damage to bales caused by friction against the ground
BELLOTA AGRISOLUTIONS, S.L.U.
Notched discs for seed drilling and fertilizing
Discs with recessed perimeter with notching. With the latest trends, such as increased working speeds, minimum ploughing and direct seed drilling, it has been found that the seed drill discs can begin to skid in furrows, spoiling the seedbed . This skidding means that instead of cutting up debris they move it causing obstructions and/or clogging. The notches give the discs better traction, reducing skidding and keeping the seedbed even. The sharp part of the notch helps cut up debris more effectively. The blade edge has a small notch and on the other side a deeper recess with a very sharp edge
CIMA SpA
DosA anti-drift diffuser with manual control on pneumatic sprayer
The anti-drift diffuser limits the drift effect by producing, when necessary, larger droplets, without modifying either volume, air speed or the quantity of litres/hectare delivered and not altering the "low-volume" principles that are a guarantee of the effectiveness of pneumatic spraying equipment. Adjustment of the level of liquid spray is controlled directly by the operator from the cab, taking into account the prevailing environmental conditions (wind and/or proximity to areas where extra care is required)
COMPONENTES AGRÍCOLAS GENERAL, S.L.
Atomizer with direct dosing system, mixing and injection of phytosanitary product at the pressure outlet
A system for direct injection of the pure phytosanitary product (Arag) is mounted on the water pressure outlet circuit, just in front of the nozzles, allowing 1 to 4 solid, soluble or liquid products to be dosed without any loss of the phytosanitary product and oing away with the need for operators to handle or mix the products inside the main tank as it only holds clean water. In the main tank and pump there is only water. The dosing interface for each product is carried out separately, as required, and controlled via a screen in the driver's cab, along with a variable dosing computer that can continuously adapt applications

Longitudinal vibration damping system when working with big balers
In big balers, periodic variations in power and torque cause considerable vibrations that in turn are transmitted to the tractor and significantly affect the operator. Thanks to the smart control of the transmission, the active suspension system almost totally eliminates these uncomfortable movements, increasing comfort and safeguarding the operator's health and working capacity. Based on prior knowledge of the vibrations transmitted to the tractor, the tractor's transmission is used to absorb these vibrations. This is carried out totally electronically, without the need for any additional hardware, using the smart control of the transmission components via a self-learning control algorithm
ExactApply dual application system with RGB image sensors
This system recognizes rows of plants and the weeds between the rows, allowing the timely application of herbicides at a speed of up to 25 km/h. The spray solution is supplied in very small quantities depending on consumption. A second automatic application can be carried out simultaneously, either in a precise manner on each row or over the whole of the area. The rows and between-row zones can be treated separately and selectively. RGB camera sensors along the sprayer boom are used to capture all of the green parts of the plant. Digital image processing is used to determine the rows and the weeds between rows, in order to apply treatments precisely The multi-nozzle spray gun with pulsing width adjustment can be used to carry out a separate, automatic second treatment with variable quantities and optimum droplet size
Hillcontrol system for AXIS and AXENT twin-disc fertilizer spreaders for working on steep slopes
The system is a joint development by Rauch and IRSTEA. Using DEM (Discrete Elements Method) simulation, a calculation model has been developed that, depending on the flight characteristics of the fertilizer, the working width and slope, calculates optimal machine adjustments in terms of the location of the falling point of the fertilizer, the amount metered out and travel speed. On each side of the spreader, the effect of the slope on the spreading pattern, depending on the working width and type of fertilizer, is analyzed and the readjustment of the doser, the point of application and, if necessary the disc rotation speed is calculated. Depending on the type of fertilizer and the working speed on the slope, the point of application of the fertilizer on the disc and, as a result, the fertilizer spreading pattern can be changed

Big baler control system for damping longitudinal vibrations with T7 tractors
Large square balers that allow transport and storage of a high density of plant material have gained increasing importance in agriculture. However, due to their high inertia and pressure they cause vibrations that subject the tractor cab to unpleasant pitching movements which in turn exerts pressure on the driver. The T7 tractor series detects when a baler is attached and activates the "baler" mode which manages control of front axle suspension, modifying stiffness in line with the bale compression in the baler. This prevents oscillations of the tractor-implement assembly, reducing cab movement on average by 15%, increasing comfort and reducing operator fatigue
Loop Master ™ double knot system for binding bales in Big Balers
The loop-knotting process eliminates offcuts left loose on bale and in the field (reducing the environmental impact): in 10,000 bales produced, it is estimated that 6 km worth of twine offcuts per season are eliminated, that otherwise would normally be left to pollute the ground and crop. Loop Master ™ allows knots to withstand a 15% higher tensile strength and this translates into efficient baling and considerable benefits for productivity. Furthermore it reduces the twine cost for the same quantity of bales. It substantially reduces the risk of the twine snapping or knots untying with a higher bale density and lower knotting strain
PULVERIZADORES FEDE, S.L.

RIS IBERIA, S.L.
Cloud Irrigation platform based on wireless autonomous two-way valves
IoT management device that allows two-way connection of control valves in agricultural facilities with the platform that is hosted in an external server ("cloud"). The differentiating aspect of this device consists in it not requiring a local communication gateway (communications node) but rather it can connect independently from anywhere with 4G coverage. Information flows in two directions: towards the platform (cloud) and back to the valve itself. This has enabled the design of a management platform in which, thanks to inputs from other sources (NDVI indexes or field sensors), recommended irrigation algorithms can be modelled that can establish communications with the valve and automatically launch orders. Valves can therefore be monitored and controlled without the need of a mains connection or the availability of a prior wireless connection

What happens when people return to the land of their birth after decades away? The migrants' journey is a well-told story but much less is known about those who return. Why do they go back? What is it like to be back home?
Home Again is a collection of contemporary real-life stories by men and women who have returned to Dominica. Their feelings and experiences, expressed in their own words, link the challenges of the past to both the positive aspects of return – a sense of belonging and well-being – and also to its difficulties – of rejection and frustration.
Compelling, moving and intensely personal, Home Again, compiled for the Dominica UK Asssociation, is a revealing insight into the lives of these pioneering migrants.
Home Again was featured on BBC Radio 4, while the Guardian's Gary Younge wrote a long article based on the contributors' stories for the newspaper's Saturday magazine.
It's wonderful to be able to read these stories that sound and feel so very familiar. I really do believe these are stories that should be told, after all they are a crucial and important part of our history as African-Caribbeans in Europe.

With less than a month to go for TEDxHyderabad's flagship 2500 curated attendee event of the year, themed "DO" and being held at the majestic Gachibowli indoor stadium it's time to pause and look back at the journey it has been and how far we have come.
It all started with a social media post where TEDxHyderabad licensee Anthony Vipin Das called out for applications for a team that would bring together perspective altering experiences for the citizens of Hyderabad starting with the very first event – TEDxHyderabad Live .
In 2015 as TEDxHyderabad dug in it's grassroots – it build up a community of thinkers, enablers and doers having a diverse group of people through it's events – TEDxHyderabad Women and TEDxHyderabad Youth .
2015 also had Hyderabad's first ever city wide TEDx event – TEDxHyderabad 2015 – "Unfolding Journeys " which had 500 curated attendees come together to experience the TEDx format.
In 2016, TEDxHyderabad scaled higher by being recognised as the as one of the most innovative TEDx in the world – holding the world's first ever TEDx Salon on a bus. 5 such salons were held on topics ranging from Technology and Innovation to Civic Responsibility. These salons acted as a catalyst for change and have lead to initiatives such as Live the Lakes and 10k First Responders.
With the 2016 flagship event – TEDxHyderabad 2016 – Crafting Our Future , TEDxHyderabad became one of the biggest TEDxs in India with 1500 curated attendees.
This year after having had a fun TEDxHyderabad Live 2017 and 4 amazing salons we walk towards another milestone.
18 events. 4000 attendees. 3 years.
It's been one amazing ride. At the very essence of what we do is the team working day in and day out to design mind altering experiences. Our team is an eclectic bunch from architects to doctors,from engineers to event managers.
TEDxHyderabad has been a part of many amazing journeys, we were honored to have the 2017 PadmaShri awardee Chintakindi Mallesham on our stage last year along with the sureshot Gagan Narang and our very own attendee turned speaker and India's first ever woman blade runner Kiran Kanojia. Our social impact initiatives such as Live the Lake have been applauded and supported by the government. Ideas that impact lives lead to action and action leads to change, as a team we aim to do that one idea at a time.
TEDxHyderabad 2017 -"DO" which will be held at the beautiful Gachibowli Indoor Stadium with an audience of 2500 curated attendees.

How incredible is this paper art by illustrator and paper artist, Yulia Brodskaya!
Wishing you all a Merry Christmas and a happy holidays from the team at de Fiddes Design.
Music like art can often influence our mood and have a positive effect on our well-being.
This incredible piece by Debra Hurd perfectly captures the sounds and movement of Jazz with its bright strokes and strong textures.
Creativity can be found everywhere. Even in a library through the placement of book spines to create an image!
We always strive to include libraries and or reading nooks in each project for those to enjoy some time away to relax with a good book!
As designers we know art can often affect our mood and create ambience within a space.
Colour, technique and placement encourage different reactions and emotions. Lively colours will often give a feeling of generally having more energy, while darker colours can bring a sense of melancholy along with a calming, reassuring effect.
This mesmerising shot reminds us to always explore our curiosity. Children have a beautiful way of doing just that, seeing the world in a magical, extraordinary way.
We love working with colour and texture particularly when you find that perfect paint shade! Paint can be such a simple way to change things up and this calming Dulux Light Leaf green is perfect for lifting the mood in these mid winter days.
Ethereal scattered light at dusk can influence our mood and wellbeing. These moments of beauty are sometimes overlooked but can be a reminder for us to take a time to capture the moment and breathe it all in.
As another Anzac Day passes by its a reminder to us all to take a moment to reflect.
Capturing our imaginations during this time is of course the red poppy a tribute to those who have served and a symbol to many of hope and regeneration in the face of loss.
Visiting the Marimekko Exhibit anytime soon? You are in for a treat!
Being immersed in the wonderful bold and bright patterns reflective of the Marimekko signature style showcased a fantastic evolution of the Marimekko brand hosted at Victoria's Bendigo Art Gallery. This particular piece 'Siirtolapuutarha' was a personal favourite for it's intricate detail and fine form.
The exhibition is a true delight and one which leaves you empowered and inspired!
As designers we often find it helpful to look at things from a new perspective. Our incredible Hyde Park is a great example shot by @liamfboland. We can't help but be mesmerised by it's beauty, our own little Central Park. It's a reminder to us all to take a moment to reflect, look up and experience the world around us.
How fantastic are these botanical prints by Materialised Fabrics and Sparkk Studio!
Wallpaper has the ability to transform a space before your eyes. With a broad range of patterns the design options are endless as print technologies continue to push the boundaries and forego the less traditional for interesting new applications of decorative designs that aid in wayfinding and can be a poignant talking point!
Happy Holidays.. Time for a Break!
After such a busy year we are embracing the end of year with open arms as we take a break and rejuvenate.
Photographer Tadao Cern captures the essence of this flawlessly with his endearing photographs capturing a 'less- than-perfect' but beautifully content beachgoers.
Who doesn't love a Bali escape? Being immersed in the rural Balinese landscape surrounded by paddy fields for a couple of days is an assault to the senses in the best possible way.
Everyday was a changing backdrop of beauty.
These lotus flowers revealed their full glory on our last day, a fitting end to a sensory experience.
Food can be a great source of joy in our lives particularly when shared with friends and loved ones. We recently come across Maggie Beers latest cook book 'Maggie's Recipe for Life' written in collaboration with Professor Ralph Martins with the suggestion that good food can reduce your chances of Alzheimer's and other lifestyle diseases. Informative and packed with delicious recipes to enjoy and within our four seasons, this book could heal your body and your soul.
We also came across some remarkable images by Hargreaves Levin & Caitlin Levin and we thought the pears, potatoes, sage, rosemary, brussel sprouts, persimmons, shallots, nutmeg, mandarins & cranberries was an appropriate way to celebrate Maggie's idea of the beauty of good food for life.
As an all girl design team we are always inspired by strong creative women who love style and colour. Meet Ilona Royce Smithkin at 97 years young she is an artist, teacher, author and a model for Ari Seth Cohen @advancedstyle. She is truly inspiring for the way she completely embraces her own individuality and we totally love the fact that she makes her gorgeous lashes from her own hair. Woo!


It may be troublesome to decorate a basement because you can not probably think about what you possibly can do in such a dark and gloomy place. Should you use some brighter colours and materials, you'll be able to turn your darkish, damp, depressing basement into a place where you will want to spend time with your loved ones. When pondering of what shade to paint your bedroom, do not forget that the bedroom is a spot for relaxation and tranquility. Vivid colors, like pinks and purples, do not give off a feeling of rest. Instead, it is best to try to stick to extra neutral colours, like beiges, whites, grays and lightweight browns.
Choose colours of the identical hue. Whenever you do this, even when the colors seem to be they'd not "match," they're in the same colour household. That makes them blend in a manner that's pleasing to the attention. While you get color swatches from a store, check out the colours in the same position on every card. Those are the ones with comparable hue values. Strive putting mirrors on walls reverse home windows to make rooms look larger. A great dimension mirror will mirror the sunshine from the window onto the room, making a two window effect. You'll create the looks of a brighter and larger area.
Paint or varnish old furniture earlier than replacing it. That facet table that you simply need to toss out? Try a silver varnish on it first and see if you happen to like it better. Generally all you could create a new look is a quick varnish or paint. Get creative, and even think about using a stencil. You may find you like the brand new look of that previous furnishings! If you happen to plan to sell your house sooner or later in the future, attempt to use bland colours when redecorating. Vibrant colors might be offensive to some individuals, so if your own home's inside is full of radiant colour schemes, some property buyers may be turned off by your property's interior design.
Since you have got invested plenty of time to learn by way of this article about inside design you're going to want to write your concepts down. If anything pops up in your head make sure that you write it down and see what you can make for your self in the future as you progress as an inside designer. Even when you love your exterior landscaping, give your trees and bushes a trimming now and again. Overgrown out of doors vegetation and timber can block light from entering your property, resulting in boring trying interior design. Simply with a minimal quantity of trimming, you'll be able to actually brighten up the rooms in your house.
If what the interior designer suggests does not fit your objectives, inform them.
Have a look online and at magazines. There are all sorts of publications that can provide you nice concepts. Before you start planning, get inspired. Have a look at as many various options as you possibly can and weigh your selections. Save the things you like. Combine and match ideas and determine what's doable. The entire lighting of any room relies on the curtains you put up. Darker colours, like black, brown, and dark, purple or blue, don't permit sufficient natural mild to enter the room, causing it to be dark. Attempt to get lighter-coloured curtains, like tan, white, peach, beige and taupe.
All of your cautious inside-design decisions shall be missed if the room you create is no longer useful. Issues like traffic movement, upkeep and your private comfort, as well as the room's meant function, need to be taken into consideration earlier than any design selections are made for essentially the most satisfying outcomes. In case you have shabby, old-fashioned wanting kitchen appliances, consider portray them. There are new equipment paints available on the market that may change white to silver or silver to black, relying on your style. You will discover them in most hardware shops. This is a straightforward approach to update your kitchen without spending quite a bit on new appliances.
Keep your inside design mission price-effective through the use of top quality equivalents you purchase from mass retailers. Excessive-finish decor is real expensive, however in case you look around and are resourceful, you will find one thing similar at a much cheaper value. Select designer manufacturers if you're unable to find related objects at a lesser worth. Just remember to decide the theme of your lounge before you begin the challenge. You can choose to have a very playful living room with an entertainment system and toys if in case you have kids or a peaceable front room with a hearth in case you are a newly married couple.
An excellent interior-design tip is not to buy too much into the hype of current traits. Generally people just should have what someone else has, even though it prices a fortune.
