Luis Porem; Industrial and Furniture Designer – The Trico Chair


Following my earlier post on the RGB glasses, I have been in contact with design Luis Porem and have some more of his impressive work to show,

In particular Porem’s newest addition to his already impressive folio, the Trico Chair

Wood, metal and textile, in three different colours, are the caracteristic that lift the Trico Chair. Joining the three materials it is possible to get a distinguishable simplicity and harmony.
The fact of being able of pile the chair and work with different materials make the Trico chair a functional, versatile object, with is own character.

DT: What’s the best and worst parts of being a full time, working designer?

LP: The best thing of being a designer is to be able to create and explore your creativity. Design objects that can improve the life of the users.

The worst thing is the difficult that exist on giving life to the creation.

 

DT: Any advice to up and coming artists/designers?

LP: To believe in the work they do, and make the best they can in everything they do. That’s the best attitude to have in relation with all areas.

    Generally, you were laid within the coffin; people walk through the streets in a procession carrying this coffin, while the
    vendors watching this toss fruits, flowers and
    candies on top of the casket. Essentially essentially the most complicated thing about acquiring cameras has become the camera extras.

    I’ve been surfing online greater than three hours today,
    yet I never found any fascinating article like yours.
    It is beautiful worth enough for me. Personally, if all webmasters and bloggers made good content material as you probably did, the net will be
    a lot more useful than ever before.

  42. Appreciating the time and effort you put into your blog and in depth information you
    present. It’s awesome to come across a blog
    every once in a while that isn’t the same out of date
    rehashed information. Wonderful read! I’ve bookmarked your site and I’m including your RSS feeds to my Google account.

  43. Informative article, exactly what I was looking for.

  44. What’s up all, here every one is sharing these knowledge, thus
    it’s fastidious to read this web site, and I used
    to pay a quick visit this blog all the time.

  45. I was curious if you ever thought of changing the
    page layout of your website? Its very well written; I love what
    youve got to say. But maybe you could a little more in the
    way of content so people could connect with
    it better. Youve got an awful lot of text for only having one or two pictures.
    Maybe you could space it out better?

  46. All in all I see Horrible Bosses, you could do a lot worst, if you抮e one of the people who the films?content appeals to see it, it would be a safe choice.

felineship

Captain Feline employs anthropomorphism to blend pop culture with cats. The results are a collection of fun t-shirts and limited edition art prints – purr-fect for displaying a combined love of cats and cult movie characters! Whilst the debut t-shirt illustrations by Dave are inspired by cult and classic movie characters, the team plan to increase the range to feature other pop culture icons as they grow and expand.
