The second coming: Pedrali's Remind chair goes 100% recycled | News | Architonic

The sound of birds tweeting is so remarkably clear, it's as if I'm there. But it's not only the flawless audio of my WhatsApp call with Eugeni Quitllet that's delivering this quasi-out-of-body experience. So evocative, so poetic is the award-winning, Ibizan-born industrial designer's description of the Provence countryside as he walks and talks, it's like I'm listening to a spot of expertly produced BBC nature programming. 'This is what it's all about,' Quitllet says of France's picture-perfect Lubéron region, where he and his family have been installed since the start of the pandemic. 'This is what I want people to have at the end of the day.

For a variety of reasons – from the sardine-tin train-rides and at-desk sandwiches, to the watchful boss and strong-armed post-5pm pub visits – they're happy to stay in their comfortable caves. Others, however, are eager to get back. Home workspaces can be too distracting, too small, or too uncomfortable, but it's the in-person interaction, the coffee breaks, and the after-work social events they really miss. By combining the two workplaces into one flexible lifestyle, employees get the best of both worlds. Companies can seduce both newcomers and incumbents, not with ping pong, monthly movie nights or an in-office beer garden, but with perks that actually matter, like an instant commute, school-run freedom and full control of the thermostat.

The 2021 edition of Fuorisalone will take place in two phases | Architecture | Architonic

Posted: 11 Apr 2021 03:00 PM PDT

A space at the service of companies and brands that want to get in touch with the Fuorisalone design community, openly and at any time of the day. Fuorisalone Digital creates a single universe where the essence of the event can be relieved, connecting design with people. To give continuity to the 2020 edition, Fuorisalone Digital Edition 2021 will take place from 12 to 18 April. Companies will be able to take advantage of our year-round digital platform and, if provisions will permit, organise in-person events. This first moment of exchange will anticipate the next edition of Fuorisalone, in conjunction with the Salone del Mobile.Milano, from 4 to 10 September 2021. "Forms of Living" will be the central theme that will guide Fuorisalone throughout the year, where projects in collaboration with different partners will alternate during the two editions, but also through a dedicated editorial plan that can find applications in the various tools offered by the platform. The new project, Fu… continue
