“The house begins to be a home. The unfamiliar places are beginning to fold the familiar objects into their keeping and to cozy them down. Objects that swore at each other when the movers heaved them into the new rooms have subsided into corners and sit to lick their feet and wash their faces like cats accepting a new home.” HomeFacesHouseRoomsAcceptingFeetObjectsCatCornersFamiliarFoldsUnfamiliarCozyNew HomeInanimate Objects Author:Emily Carr
“I think time is a constraint to destroy and then reinvent. If you give me a constraint, I'll accept it. But I always try to move it around, or to readapt it. Ecco! If you lock me in a room, well I'll go out through the window! I always remember Achille Castiglioni, one of my mentors, and he always said that in industrial design you have the idea, the fantasy, the concepts - that's the marmalade! - but the constraint of the brief is the bread. You need both in order to find structure for your ideas.” IfsThinkingNeedsGivingTryingWellsSaidIdeasRememberMovingOrderRoomsAcceptingFantasyDesignConceptsWindowGive MeStructureBreadMentorLocksConstraintsAchillesIndustrial DesignMarmalade Author:Patricia Urquiola
