The Design of Japanese Houses
Traditional designs tend to think of the inside and outside of a house as a continuous element, not two separate environments.
In spite of modernization, Japanese traditions have not been eradicated. As with most Asian countries, removal of the shoes before entering a house is customary and in even Westernized homes, a room can be found with a tatami (Japanese mat) covering it.

And straight from the design forums someone is looking for an iPhone app creator.
"I am looking for a designer who can quickly build a prototype of an iPhone App for major U.S. publishing houses and bestselling authors. If the App is bought by my clients, and I expect it will be, it will be a lucrative payment. Please email me at jason(AT)precedentonline.com if you are interested in more information."

Nature helping indoors
Thursday, July 17, 2008
The well known international beer, Becks, have recently run a contest in the UK to find a set of new artistic designs for their beer bottles. Design Shack has an exclusive preview of the winning bottle designs.And in other design related news...
Now for a design that both freaks me out and amuses me all at the same time. The birds.
The birds are coming out and going into a wall, waiting for you to carry your things. Japanese designer Naoko Kanehira's clever quip is, "You will have a chat with the birds when you use them, "Oh, thank you."
Some of the showcase photos emphasizing the birds show them flying through doors and walls, but there is one photo which also shows it through a window and I think that is the one which freaks me out the most.
To further add naturesque elements to your indoor decor he cast a real branch in brass to give an ornamental look, and strength as a hook.
