Fifty years ago, Verner Panton designed the first single mold plastic chair with a curvaceous profile called the Panton chair. Since then it has become one of the most recognizable and classic designs to date. To celebrate the 50th anniversary of the iconic design, Vitra UK held a design competition among its clients to customize a Panton chair. The only criteria was that the finished product must be movable by one man.

The idea behind the Resin Fossil Table is almost as cool as its look, which in this case is saying a lot. The Resin Fossil Table comes from Nucleo and the idea behind is is to design the furniture of its objects, making them fossils of themselves. Like archaeologists find the imprint of an original item in a fossil, this table is handmade using fiberglass and pigment and consists of a single empty block that traces the object from which it takes its shape. Cool right?
The Resin Fossil Table is currently on display at the Gabrielle Ammann Gallery. More from Nucleo here.

Resinite is the new experimental research from studio Nucleo , who plays on the presumption to design the future of its objects making them fossils of themselves. As with the trace fossils where we find the imprint of the original item, in the same way the implementation process that creates the object leads to the destruction of its original. The first object of the Resinite collection is “Resin Fossil Table,” handmade using fiberglass and pigment, the table consists of a single empty block that accurately traces the object from which it takes shape. © 2010 Design Milk | Posted by Jaime in Home Furnishings | Permalink | No comments | Tweet This | Share on Facebook

Materials: 4×2 Expedit shelf, 2 Expedit doors inlays, 4 extra strong brackets, screws Description: I was looking for a solution to wall mount my video projector, together with a computer and hide all cabeling, so I came accros the solution to wall mount a heavy expedit shelf with some extra strong brackets. Because the Expedit doors inlays does not fit together with the brackets I just screwed the doors directly to the shelf. With the old inlay stuff I build a angel adjustment for the video projector, a cable hideout for the computer and a hideout for my DVB-T amplifier. ~ Marcus Carl, Germany CAUTION! Unless you know what you are doing, please DO NOT attempt to mount heavy furniture on the wall.
