I’m Very excited to present you with the Zaishu by designers Matthew Butler and Helen Punton. The Zaishu isn’t just a stool or piece of furniture, behind it’s lovingly painted slot together sides is an underlying philosophy. The Zaishu represents and reinforces a social understanding and awareness of cultures, how? well it’s designers have travelled the world and have approached over a thousand different people, to hand paint their design.. keeping the ever changing panels fresh and unique. Supplying buyers with their own individualized design.
The fundamentals principles for their design is simple,
“Creativity, participation, responsibility (environment and society) and evolution.”
So, What is a Zaishu?
The Zaishu was designed from the ground up to be a product that responsibly addressed environmental issues whilst encouraging social interaction and creates awareness of other cultures.
This is achieved by using plantation grown pine, water based inks and varnish and the way it flat packs for distribution. We host socially interactive painting workshops around the world to unite creative people and to exchange and evolve ideas.
The name Zaishu actually comes from a mistake in translation. What was meant to be Zaisu a name for a traditional Japanese seat, but an accidental ‘h’ was added. However, this says Butler, “sets a good tone for the organic way we run the company – relying on feeling and instinct rather than what is technically correct.”
The core of Zaishus success revolves around the very fact that it is a collaborative project, rather than a designed product.
Matthew and Helen have worked with over 1000 different people over the last 4 years from many different countries and cultures to create the artwork that adorn the Zaishus slot together sides.
“We find that collaboration helps us to grow ideas and expand possibilities rather than thinking my idea is better than someone elses or that I can do everything.”
Hand painted Zaishus are created by artists as diverse as stencil artists from Melbourne, tribal artists from India and Fiji and street poster artists from Berlin. “We currently have an exhibition in Amsterdam with Zaishus painted by a group of Dutch artists. A lot of these projects are not for profit and support a worthy cause such as a school in Fiji or children affected by war in Uganda.
Also available are commercially made Zaishus that are hand printed in small batches at Matthew and Helen’s coastal studio. The designs and patterns have been created by textile designers and artists that the pair work with.
Who Developed the Zaishu?
As noted earlier, the Zaishu is by Australian based designers, (not far from Byron Bay for the aussies tuning in) Matthew Butler and Helen Punton, a little about the duo –
Matthew Butler – born in Australia, currently living and working from Yamba – a quiet little town on the coast near Byron Bay NSW. Trained in Architecture, Industrial Design, sculpture and gained experience as production manager for Tom Dixon in London during mid 1990’s.
Helen Punton – studied Graphic Design in Australia and designed the signage for Melbourne’s ‘Metlink’ public transport system and exhibit design for the Melbourne zoo. Helen has lived and worked in Berlin for several years writing and directing short films and curating exhibitions such as the Australian Design Exhibition ‘Modernwhite’ and ‘Sharpies’ photography at the Australian embassy in Berlin in 2005.
and just to give you a bit of an insight into the lives of these two, how’s this for an adventure, in the next couple months Matthew “will be cycling around Patagonia and visiting craftspeople along the way, [Whilst]Helen is climbing the Inca trail in Peru. We hope to see some innovative techniques and ideas that we can work with.”
To up and coming designers Matthew offers this, “Forget the rules, create your own context to work within. ie: don’t design a ‘chair’ but design a ‘platform to support the human body’.”
A huge thanks to Matthew for and Helen for sharing with us their obviously very personal and special design, the zaishu.
Cheers from the Design Tavern!

The Androl that viewers saw during her argument with Frank Lombardi was clearly
completely different from the usually composed Androl in the
previous episodes. s child was handed a $1,200 bedding set,
a $1,300 chandelier and a $6,200 gold necklace, among all kinds of other presents.
These girls had developed within the projects of Detroit and
formed the group like a female version of The Primes that included Eddie Kendricks and Paul Williams.

Hi there, I enjoy reading all of your article post.
I like to write a little commnent to support you.
Did you know that Google identifies all around ten,000 malware-contaminated sites, out of
which virtually 50 % of them are the types compromised
by hackers? Even though it really is commonly considered that big
enterprises are the principal targets for cyber crimes, little enterprise web-sites run the optimum chance of
being hacked mainly because they generally do not commit as considerably in strengthening their protection units
as huge makes would.
Regretably, most victims detect the hacks at the identical time when their readers
start out spotting risk warnings from research engines and browsers.
Now that is much too late, as their internet websites have by now been blacklisted by then. The demanding recovery
process is made up of cleansing all one-way links, rebuilding the server, and updating the
articles administration software program. Even following all these measures, there is certainly no promise that look for engines will eliminate the cautionary message.
What’s the way out? Properly, how about having a leaf out of what grandpa has always been stating?
Prevention is far better than overcome. Squander no time
and make certain that your internet site safety is at its
the best possible level. Below are five approaches that can help
you save your website from being hacked:
Use robust passwords and continue to keep them harmless
You usually realized this, but hardly ever bothered to choose it very seriously,
is it? Qualified hackers are already mindful of the common, default and predictable passwords.
Prevent utilizing noticeable passwords that incorporate the title,
phone amount, avenue handle of your company or birth dates.
An antivirus plugin may well also occur handy in defending your site
from virus assaults and thus stall hackers from thieving passwords and planting malware.
Update CMS to its latest model
Anytime a articles administration method (CMS) launches
a new update, it is made up of stability enhancements even if it were in the
slightest sum. More mature versions of a CMS, in particular WordPress, are vulnerable to very
invasive attacks. Hence, the safest remedy is to update the CMS each time there is
a new variation introduced by the developers. You also need to have to halt
hackers from understanding the most current version of your CMS.
Consult with your site owners, the fellas who maintain your web page, and get rid
of the suitable hook that shows the edition.
Sign up with Google’s Webmaster Applications
As soon as a web-site is thought of destructive and blacklisted, day-to-day targeted traffic stream by natural means gets lessened.
If you happen to be registered with Google’s Webmaster Equipment, it’ll notify
you the second there is a malware an infection. This will
make it much easier to get rid of the menace prior to the blacklisting
takes place.
Install advert-administration plugins to shield AdSense
Ads are a good source of revenue, but they are prone to hacks, far too.
Some popular hacking assaults are click on-bombing
to overload and shut down an AdSense account, and swapping
the ‘real’ ads for some thing irrelevant. Investigation really extensively, and
discover out the greatest performing stability plugins that can management your advert displays.
Apply encryption to safeguard your data
In purchase to steer clear of data interception all through a transmission, make absolutely sure you use an encryption strategy like
Safe Socket Layer (SSL). Speak to your webmasters to
discover out the most ideal encryption for your web-site.
The moment you are completed, inquire them
to established the correct encryption in position.
Have you ever thought about publishing an ebook or guest authoring on other blogs?
I have a blog centered on the same subjects you discuss and would really
like to have you share some stories/information. I know
my audience would appreciate your work. If you are even remotely interested, feel free to send me an email.
Incredible story there. What occurred after? Take care!
Hi Dear, are you really visiting this web site regularly, if so after
that you will definitely take pleasant know-how.
