Core77 Designer Shopping Guide Core77 Designer Shopping Guide

Call us weak, but we can't help but want everything that comes out of the Madrid based Kawamura-Ganjavian studio.

Having swooned over their fold-up felt "Oyster" chairs late last year, we're now hurriedly rearranging our studios to make way for their newest concept "Giraffe"— a wonderfully distinctive space divider, with a definite look of their "Caterpillar" trestles, and clearly continuing something of a zoological theme in their portfolio.

"Giraffe" is intended to strike the balance between privacy and open-plan and, on top of its dashing good looks, also acts as power and ethernet hub. It even looks like its got a lamp in it!

Whether any of the design duo's creations will ever be available for purchase is another question entirely. For the time being you can window shop on the kg-studio site.

    An example of the perfect instructional video

    I've sat through a lot of "How-To" videos, and I wish all of them were edited like this one: Fast-moving, absent any filler, adequately lit and focused, accompanied by intelligent and helpful graphic aids, and with articulate voice instructions provided in a British accent. Oh yeah, and the object of...

    Sure this will seem ridiculous to current youth, but when we witnessed the original airings of Sony's Super Walkman commercial, it seemed miraculous:Industrious mix-tapers could forego the standard 60-minute cassettes and buy mind-blowing 120-minute blanks. That's like, at least 35 songs in your pocket! And it would only take you...
