Cold War Modern
Ross sent an interesting Christmas present over from London – an exquisitely tiny Busch Automodelle from the Victoria and Albert Museum‘s current exhibition Cold War Modern: Design 1945-1970. It’s important to surround ourselves with design objects and creative work if we need to be fresh and creative. The Busch is like a small window into someone else’s perspective. Also, if you’re on their site, check out the random videos page. It’s interesting to note that Dieter Rams has been cited by Jonathon Ive at Apple as a major design influence.
Ross Langdon is an architect with an interesting architecture and design based blog called Urban Explorer which fluctuates a little as he gets more deeply involved in projects. He’s also one of my partner Linden‘s talented offspring – Craig is an industrial plumber / project manager, Amy is a performing artist who has been a part of the Edinburgh Festival and worked extensively through Europe, Abi is an artist and designer and photographer and anything else creative you could imagine, and Anthony is a qualified painter and decorator.
Thanks for the Busch Automodelle Ross. Excellent.
