ORGANIC DWELLING:
“biomimicry in design & architecture”
State Museum of Architecture (MUAR), Moscow
(exhibition continues until November 30th, 2011)

This exhibition will explore how designers and architects have embraced a more organic language,
welcoming technology while not letting go of our more primal instincts. The installation will
investigate the following 9 architectural concepts from nature:

MY HOME IS MY NEST
MY HOME IS MY EARTH
MY HOME IS MY LANDSCAPE
MY HOME IS MY HIDE-OUT
MY HOME IS MY COCOON
MY HOME IS MY HIVE
MY HOME IS MY WEB
MY HOME IS MY ARMOUR
MY HOME IS MY MASTERPIECE

Marta Herford Museum

The exhibition takes a humorous and critical look at a theme that is ever present beneath the surface of our everyday lives. Contemporary design appears as a multifaceted medium equally skilled at negotiating a number of different arenas – postmodern consumer culture and art, seduction and self-referential presentation.

“Lucifearse” at Design Miami/Basel 2011 BSL Galerie

admin — Thu, 30 Jun 2011 14:58:56 +0000

New pieces of “Luciferase” edited exclusively by Galerie BSL, for Design Basel 2011.A
collection which is above all a set of living organisms capable of surprising us by their
colours, textures and demeanor.

So, abissology, mineralogy, vegetology or genetic manipulation…? A little of each as well
as humour, tenderness and poetry. For if in spite of its strangeness, Nacho Carbonell’s design
succeeds in imposing its own evidence, recognisable among all, it is also because he
knows from the start to prompt a dialogue, an emotional connection which appeals to
everyone’s imagination, sensibility and capacity to dream.

For this edition of Design Miami/Basel , Galleria Rossana Orlandi will present the new collection of Nacho : Playground closes at dusk. As the name already suggests, this outdoor large-scale installation will be a playground, a series of five objects to climb, smell, hear and touch designed for visitors that look for an introspective trip.

Senses and memory, a research over the consciousness; the intricate connections between the senses and our sorrounding enviroment is the main aim of this collection.

Confrontation,Opposition and Equality @ Groninger Museum, NL

admin — Wed, 04 May 2011 15:34:25 +0000

From 28 May to 28 August 2011, the Groninger Museum presents the exhibition Material World. Art, design, fashion. It shows work of eight artists, designers and fashion designers in whose work the use of materials as well as the experimental study of materials plays a major role. Commissioned directly by the Groninger Museum, Nacho will show three new pieces belonging to the already known Evolution Collection.

Opposition, Confrontation and Equality are the unequivocal names attributable to those pieces that have as main aim the one of explaining the intricate social relationships between human beings.

It’s a materialistic representation of the vision that two individuals have, regarding their living enviroment and the events that involve them.
