Built Festival, Chi Town

A major new art Initiative; BUILT;festival, is a city being created out of shipping containers this summer in Chicago’s Wicker Park Neighborhood. The shipping containers will be given over to Chicago’s contemporary artists and curators to transform into alternative or ‘ guerrilla’ venues.

 

BUILT is designed as a dynamic space for creative thinking and action, bringing together artists and participants in a cultural activation open to the public.

Ostrich

Ostrich offers a micro environment in which to take a warm and comfortable power nap at ease. It is neither a pillow nor a cushion, nor a bed, nor a garment, but a bit of each at the same time. (Source)

Solar Powered Laptop

The needs to go green, be mobile, and be productive collide in Andrea Ponti’s concept design for solar powered laptop, one that does not require a peripheral attachment to harness the power of the sun.
