Thomas Heatherwick: the new Da Vinci of design | Art and design | The Guardian
7 days ago by ohskylab
"As to how he finds design solutions, he says the process is almost the opposite of having a "Eureka" moment. "It is more like solving a crime. The answer is there, and your job is to find it. So we go off and do bits of research that essentially eliminate suspects from the enquiry. And then you follow up leads and gradually narrow down the potential solutions. Ultimately what you're left with is the answer. Even if you'd thought of it at the beginning of the process, you could never know it was right until the end."

The Shard: the view from Europe's tallest building | Art and design | The Observer
5 weeks ago by ohskylab
"You can see, in other words, the whole of London, until now an unencompassable splodge that could last have been captured in a single view perhaps 200 years ago, to its perimeter and beyond. Close to, familiar and not-small objects, such as the Gherkin and HMS Belfast, look like large toys. It is both implausible and real, something well-known seen from an unprecedented place. It's hard to know what to do except gawp." Open the public viewing galleries already!

FT.com / FT Magazine - Caff culture
january 2011 by ohskylab
The caffs are the spaces of the everyday, of the ordinary, yet they distil extraordinary stories of immigration and ambition, faded hopes and fashions, of class and business; they embody the values of a different world in which corporations didn’t yet control consumption and places aimed at the working class could happily accommodate City boys and dustmen, gents and tramps. Yet if most of the caffs seem as busy as ever, how come they’re dying out?

The Kernel Brewery
october 2010 by ohskylab
"The brewery springs from the need to have more good beer. Beer deserving of a certain attention. Beer that forces you to confront and consider what you are drinking. Upfront hops, lingering bitternesses, warming alcohols, bodies of malt. Lengths and depths of flavour. We make Pale Ales, India Pale Ales and old school London Porters towards these ends. Bottled alive, to give them time to grow."
