People Made - Nokia products that changed the world // Design Museum

Vilma — Fri, 28 Oct 2011 23:33:08 +0000

I think to most of us Nokia associates with nostalgia. First phone, first sms… Today Design Museum is opening its door and invites its visitor to a journey back and to a coming future. By the way , the first mass-market phone Nokia 1011 is celebrating its 20th anniversary! Happy birthday!
Few shots from the exhibition opening night + New Lumia 800 phone.

Manau nesuklysiu, kad daugumai is musu, Nokia dvelkia nostalgija.

Beje pirmas plataus vartojamo mobilus telefonas Nokia 1011 svencia savo 20 metu jubilieju. Su gimtadieniu!

Typo London 2011 Places - JOKER WILD CARD

Vilma — Mon, 24 Oct 2011 23:36:08 +0000

Last week one of the biggest design talks - Typo London 2011 Places was storming the capital of England. With the most impressive speakers list - it was a total temptation that was difficult to resist. Unfortunately, due to last minute change of plans, I’ve managed to see only 1 speaker - Morag Myerscough, who was as always - brilliant!

Imaginary Menagerie @ Text Gallery

Vilma — Fri, 21 Oct 2011 20:57:31 +0000

Last evening, small Text gallery based in WC1 was completely packed with people who came to the opening of Imaginary Menageries exhibition, where 19 designers from all around the world were exhibiting their tongue-twisting interpretations. It was very sweet to to watch and listen to people trying to read the tongue twisters in perfection, not just in English, but in Russian, Spanish and other languages as well.

Yesterday I was there to support Morag Myerscough (neon installation / Where She Shines) and Cartlidge Levene ( lamp shades/ Five Palindromes* [*Palindromes are phrases of words which read the same backwards as they do forwards.). I really really liked Ryan Dixon's (poster / Pistols Packing Punks) piece, unfortunately it was exhibited so close to the bar (which was overcrowded) that I didn't manage to photograph it. The exhibition is open until 19th November 2011. For more info please click here.

Lat. fictio, f. – creation, shaping, inventing
Lat. factio, f. – action

“For the last hundred years, human body has changed like never before. Research shows that we are taller, we weigh more, our bodies have different build. This way, human organism has adjusted to a variety of changes which we have been exposed to during the last century. Where biology still has to work on something, designers get involved. Mobile mini-devices, temporary prostheses and active implants are their response to the technological progress. These are also examples showing how much design itself has changed. A wide spectrum of 2D and 3D planning has been joined by creation of alternative scenarios and speculative solutions which run far into the future. Design is also a critical commentary on contemporariness – our lifestyle, ambitions and desires. At the same time, it disturbs our comfort of being a user, making us wonder if what we witness is design fiction or another step in the technological evolution.”

Wim Crouwel - A Graphic Odyssey @ London Design Museum

Vilma — Tue, 29 Mar 2011 13:33:10 +0000

Wim Crouwel is called one of the leading graphic designers of the twentieth century, and I think, this name is given to him for a reason.
Last night I had a great opportunity to attend the opening of this graphic odyssey, that was spread over a second floor of the Design Museum. The work on display was so good, that sometimes it was difficult to believe that it was completed 40-50 years ago, as it was the same edgy, the same modern as our-day print. Here are few snaps from the evening.

Last night we (the studio) went to the launch of Nokia Pure typeface at Tramshed, Rivington Street, where Morag Myerscough alongside other great designers, such as Alex Trouchet, Bond, Build, Cartlidge Levene, DesignStudio, HelloVon, Nokia Design, Non-Format, North, Practise, Value & Service & Z.A.K were exhibiting her installation of 20 PURE stools.
The night was soooo good (won’t mention free Finlandia’s cocktail bar), that on the next day we didn’t have to find an excuse to go home earlier.

On 12 November Kin Design was celebrating studio’s second birthday party. I popped in there to congratulate Matt and Kevin (I’ve met them, when we were doing a joint project, while I was still studding at Goldsmiths), and to say hello to my course friends: Avril, Clair and Max who work there. hahahaha funny enough, I’ve managed to park my bike in ’somebody’s’ private yard, and when it was time to head home, I found the gates – locked :))))))) and I walked all way home, while Mindaugas was slowly cycling alongside of me :)))) What a silly cow…
PS. On Saturday – I was re-united with my Madame Pakamuka and doing circles around the city.

Yesterday I went to the private view of Drawing Fashion exhibition at London Design Museum,where Chanel, Dior, Comme des Garçons and Poiret as well as Viktor & Rolf, Lacroix and McQueen were exhibiting pieces from their collections. Nicely designed sinuous walk was taking us around the exhibition , where fashion illustrations hanged on the walls were taking us to the journey of drawing. It was very nice to follow the history and compare how the drawing has changed through out the century and how fragile and neat become strong, dramatic and modern.

Anish Kapoor – Turning The World Upside Down – Hyde Park

Vilma — Sun, 17 Oct 2010 17:23:40 +0000

This mid-autumn morning has met us with warm weather and a lot of sunshine. An amazing day to spend outdoors, especially to cycle in Hyde Park. We stopped by Anish Kapoo r’s installation and had few pictures done there. This installations has brought me back to my childhood, to times when almost every Sunday my parents were taking me and my sister to children theme park in Klaipeda. One of the attractions there – was a mirror room full of different mirrors which were distorting our images. Today I was playing again, like I used to do it when I was little.

Among them were two very good friends – Morag Myerscough with her scribble neon saying Cunts and Luke Morgan with his typographic skull – Not Collin. Of course they were the best! But alongside of them I really liked: Tracey Emin’s – I woke up wanting to kiss you neon, Polly Morgan’s – Receiver, Marcus Mitchell’s – Dead Tit, Douglas Gordon’sneon saying – I’m a designer of my own catastrophy, Franko B – Boy, Dean Whatmuff’s – Ace of Spades.

Urban Dolls // Concept

Vilma — Sun, 06 Jun 2010 22:36:53 +0000

It is getting more and more difficult to define a concept of contemporary beauty. In urban society, where the hunt for perfection begins at an early age and modified ‘plastic beauties’ wave from the covers of glossy magazines, humanity’s struggle for perfection appears almost limitless.

This project is an explorative journey in search of alternatives that could replace plastic or aesthetic surgery. Design becomes a mediator between humans and existing body modification processes; static, permanent procedures are transformed into flexible, temporary prosthetics.

Urban Dolls Contextual Report / Mum who am I?

Vilma — Mon, 25 Jan 2010 00:16:40 +0000

This is my Contextual Report for my final year project. In this paper, I propose that there is no need to undergo expensive, psychologically and physically painful procedures in finding your perfect look. Essential parts of the human psyche - confidence and self-esteem - could be easily lifted and ‘healed’ not just by a few cuts and stitches made by the surgeon, but also by through various design contexts and practises.

Throughout my research I have developed two areas of interest, which are conflicting. I do like this idea of creating designs for people who feel a ‘need’ to fit into constraining stereotypes, as well as the idea - to create new objects, new forms by applying surgical procedures (taking away or adding) to already existing practises or designs.

Sandra Kit
Plastic, metal and mixed materials,
USA , Europe and Japan, 2020

Sandra plastic surgery kit was a revolutionary example
of domestic surgery. It became popular with large
numbers of ordinary people who were interested in building
self-confidence. It was, however, always controversial in
medicine circles, as people could perform procedures
( Abdominoplasty, Blepharoplasty, Mammoplasty, Labiaplasty,
Rhinoplasty, Otoplasty, Rhytidectomy, Suction-assisted
lipectomy, Chin augmentation, Cheek augmentation
and etc. ) without consulting with a specialist.
As a consequence a lot of deaths occurred.

A kit consists of : a mirror, face/body sanding, grating,
buffing, measuring, stretching, blade and laser
cutting, suction and filling equipment.

Wake up. Shower. Wardrobe.

Dark circles on the top of smiling faces.
Scared / Shattered.
No mirrors. No looking at reflection .
Leaving.

Wind plays in my hair.
I look like I am on fire.
Falling leaves.
I am grey. Grey like a winged bat.
Grey like a rat searching in the scrap-heap.
I am not here.
I am scared. Not looking at the passers by.
I am different. I am ugly.

Eyes are counting gaps between the
pavement tiles.
Wow… Said almost out loud.
Pupils have expanded after spotting a little
brown box standing by the taxi rank.
Sandra…
Heart is shaking. I am feeling sick.
Slowly.
She is in my hands.
Safe.
By my ear.
Shake.
There is something inside.
By my chest.
Heart is beating louder and louder.
Echo.

Cannot remember.
I am at home.
I am not scared of the mirror!
He is not going to bite me.
Not any more!

Bravely.
Lid is opened.
Shaky hands take Sandra out.
Start / On.
Cutting, sanding, shaping and re-shaping.
My ugly face.
Measuring my body…

I am in control and I am pretty!

The Archaeology of Futures. Workshop by El Ultimo Grito

Vilma — Sun, 22 Nov 2009 01:34:27 +0000

The aim of this workshop is to create both objects and narrative contexts as one single outcome. During the development process the first would feed the second and one vice versa in order to achieve new kinds of product typology that would talk about possible futures and the way we picture and interpret them right now.

Starting from three or more objects from the 1 pound shop around the corner and then joining them togehter these objects, or just a part of them, through an intuitive exploration of shapes and the language of objects, would lead to ‘bizare’ and ‘imaginary’ constructs that are able to talk abstract uses away from more known typologies of use.

All the objects are painted white in order to erase, on one side, their ‘past lives’, as these are not meant to be understood as ready-mades but as objects in their own right.

Design Is Dead, Long Live Design

Vilma — Mon, 09 Nov 2009 20:41:25 +0000

This projects was one week joint project , where second & third year students had a chance to meet and design together. I was working alongside of: Brittany Gragham (3rd year) and Danny Morgan, Alice B., Nicolette (2nd year). As a group we had to create 30 copies of A5 size leaflet promoting our topic :Design is Pollution. Promoting our ideas, instead of 30 copies we made 110.Being a ‘bit cheeky’, playing with closed cards, without revealing our main arguments to our opponents: Design is NOT Pollution, we had few strong arguments ready for the big day: Friday 13 November.
