Everyone’s talking about air quality, but most people just ignore the daily noise we are surrounded by.
Crossing a busy street is a test of how many sounds your brain can process.
Notice it next time you’re waiting for the light to change.

Most of the energy we use today comes from harnessed pressure and explosions, which means loud sounds.

I see a day when noise will be seen just as second-hand smoke is seen today.
A nuisance.

Gears and bearings will be replaced by liquids and gels.
Internal combustion will be replaced by solar, wave and wind energy.
Active noise reduction will be incorporated into all devices.

Whisper quiet will have a new meaning.
Conversations, birds, wind, your own breath and your gurgling stomach.

But, I sure hope that rock shows still rock.

Shaped like a rainy cloud, Coatrain will hold your clothes.
The hooks are made made of rubber, and the front is a mirror so you can see yourself before going out…

I’m looking for a manufacturer to produce it.

Any horizontal mirrored shape will look awesome as a mirror.
As with the Rorschach Test, people will assign a likeness to the shapes.

The Salone is finally over…
I’m back to my reality and feel like changing it.

I’m starting my own furniture/accessories company.
Limited edition pieces made by the hands of angels.
No detail left untouched.
Quality above all else.
Materials to drool over.
Embedded secrets, all poetry, no filler.
Ohh, and the shoe has nothing to do with it.

I’ll tell you all about it as we go along…

I got back to Milano just as the circus is arriving.
The Salone del Mobile is here so posting will be sporadic/nonexistent until next week.
Chill.

My most sincere and heartfelt congratulations to Vanessa and Fernando.
The wedding was awesome, the food delicious, and the time spent in LA memorable.
Thanks again for everything, both of you guys rock!

I’m off to L.A. for my sister’s wedding.
Be cool.

If you want to meet, write.

Thirty spokes meet in the hub,
but the empty space between them
is the essence of the wheel.

Walls with windows and doors form the house,
but the empty space within it
is the essence of the house.

Cut up stickers make great futurist paintings.
