the collection includes a console, a low table, and a divider inspired by the japanese craft that assembles wooden geometric patterns without nails. The post traditional japanese woodworking technique adds dimension to forêt furniture series by ODS appeared first on designboom | architecture & design magazine.
Portuguese woodworking specialist Madeiguincho recently completed a new model that once again showcases the firm's expertise with all things wood. Named the Morena, it features an eye-catching timber exterior made using a traditional Japanese charring technique plus a spacious and open interior that sleeps up to two people in comfort.Continue ReadingCategory: Tiny Houses, LifestyleTags: Timber, B
Microplastics. We've found them in the Arctic sea and even frozen into the ice. The Mariana Trench, the deepest part of all our oceans, is polluted with plastic debris. Mount Everest has microplastic contamination. Our drinking water and food, especially processed foods in single-use packaging, are contaminated with microplastics. Recent studies have found microplastics in our blood, lungs, liver
Lithium is a finite resource, and the more we lock inside rechargeable batteries, the less we have to use. A new speedy method to free the element from such sources could be a game changer in terms of the material's availability.Continue ReadingCategory: Energy, ScienceTags: Batteries, Battery, Battery Technology, Lithium-ion, Lithium metal, Rice University, Green+Energy, Recycling
In a breakthrough that isn't at all creepy, scientists have devised a method of anchoring living human skin to robots' faces. The technology could actually have some valuable applications, beyond making Westworld-like scenarios a reality.Continue ReadingCategory: Robotics, TechnologyTags: University of Tokyo, Facial, Skin
the MIT researchers also built a machine that can melt the aluminum and hold the liquid metal before 3D printing large-scale objects. The post MIT researchers’ new technique can 3D print furniture in a few minutes using liquid metal appeared first on designboom | architecture & design magazine.
Researchers are claiming a breakthrough in quantum communications, thanks to a new diamond-stretching technique they say greatly increases the temperatures at which qubits remain entangled, while also making them microwave-controllable.Continue ReadingCategory: Quantum Computing, ScienceTags: Diamonds, Argonne National Laboratory, University of Chicago, University of Cambridge, Quantum, Qubit
A great deal of peel, pulp and stone waste is constantly being generated in the production of olive oil. And while that waste is often just dumped or incinerated, it could soon be used as a source of valuable antioxidants.Continue ReadingCategory: Good Thinking, LifestyleTags: ETH Zurich, Olive, Agri-waste, Antioxidant
Researchers have developed a new technique to better detect extraterrestrial radio signals by weeding out the interference caused by Earth-based devices. It’s hoped that the technique will lead to the discovery of the first evidence of life outside our planet.Continue ReadingCategory: Space, ScienceTags: SETI, Extraterrestrial, Radio Waves, Signal, University of California Berkeley
Using old insurance fire maps, researchers have enabled a machine-learning system to recreate 3D models of neighborhoods that no longer exist. Not only could the technique lead to VR tours of the 'hoods, but it could help study the economic impact of urbanization.Continue ReadingCategory: ScienceTags: Mapping, Maps, Ohio State University, Urban Planning, Machine Learning
