A great concept project from student of Hyper Island in Sweden, made for the module Advanced Interface Design. Using Aussie streetwear brand WESC, they created this interactive shopping window where online users can upload their video, create their background and choose in which city they want it to showcase.
Love it!

And here’s an other Nike sportswear post on inspirationspam, and I’m not even sponsored by them! :-) Well, it’s to cool to not write about it. I gues they’ve got their marketing right.
This time it’s about the recycled magazines shoes. I like the concept, althoug I doubt it’s the next big step to a 100% sustainable shoe.

Last week the Fifa announced the 2 country’s that will host the World Cup football in 2018 and 2022. Surrounded with controversy Russia and Quatar came out as winners. I’m sure the promise of Russia of an enormous profit for the Fifa helped the decision for 2018.
We, as the Netherlands also entered the bidding but didn’t make it. I guess we’re not as willing as the winners to let the Fifa take over the country and change the laws for 4 weeks and we weren’t as good for the Fifa wallet.

This is a quote of Lonneke Gordijn at the TEDxAmsterdam event today (30th of november). She’s the (co)founder, together with Ralph Nauta, of Design Drift, a design company that has practicing vision of creating design that reacts to and questions human behavior.
They’re curious about the future, not only the new technologies that are changing design, but also the evolutionary developments in nature and human culture.

Cleaning and detergent products; how exiting is that? Not very, you’d expect from the design point of view. But in the household and personal care industry a lot has been happening over the years and design rules are changing.
Once one of the dirtiest industries, is now becoming clean. The big guy’s are catching up on the small pioneers and now health and the environment has become an important issue in big brands future strategies. Continue reading ‘Clean cleaner design’
Made me :-)

The Professional Passionates foundation is initiating a rally for electrical cars in 2011. And I was fortunate enough to be asked to make the introduction clip.

DDB China Group took over a busy pedestrian crossing and placed a large canvas featuring a leafless tree on the road. On either side of the crossing were sponge cushions soaked in green environmentally-friendly washable and quick dry paint.
As pedestrians walked towards the crossing they stepped on the sponges and the soles of their feet made footprints on the tree. Each green footprint added to the canvas like leaves growing on a bare tree. By walking they could create a greener environment.
Nice way of re-language carbon footprint to green footprint ;-)

BP stated in their 2005 Environmental Statement: Gelsenkirchen‘s commitment to health, safety, environmental protection and quality as the nr.1 priority:
“No accidents, no harm to our employees or our neighbours, no damage to the environment, high product quality for our customers”.
Before that in 2000 BP introduced the new logo. The logo was designed by Landor and featured as a blossoming flower reflecting the company’s environmental responsibility. Bright and bold, the identity evokes natural forms and energy that represent, respectively, BP’s position as an environmental leader and its goal of moving beyond the petroleum sector. British Petrol was transformed into Beyond Petrolium.
Painful to see that non of the above seems to pass the test of reality.
Reason for Greenpeace to start a online campaign, a design competition to redesign the BP brand. The competition was originally initiated as a protest to BP’s plans to invest in Alberta Tar Sands (the dirtiest oil form), wrecking the Canadian boreal forest. But with Gulf of Mexico oil spill disaster, the competition got a lot more attention and response. And, as you could expect, the result are pretty indiscriminating, if not to say radical. The tag lines show anger with: ‘Broken Promises’, ‘British Poison’, ‘Bloody Planet’ and ‘Biological Pathogen’.
It’s also a nice example of crowd sourcing
