Hi guys,
Here is a way to recycle old broken furniture found in the street or in antique shops.
It changes the shape completely.

Sam Baron is a pseudo-designer. I can’t even imagine why he’s at Fabrica!!!

I mean, I know we can’t ask for a Hayon everyday, but there are thousands and thousands of much ‘better’ designers to put at Fabrica instead of Sam Baron. I mean… Fabrica is experiencing one of the worst ideas/design period of its life!

Sam, do us all a favour and please leave.

Hey No curve’s work has infinite more appeal than this pretentious “me too” effort by Baron.

Lastly, I just have to ask, where is this so-called “system”? It’s rolls of tape, innit?

Hi to all, a dear friend(a designer) sent me this link.
We focus on works with adhesive tapes. Interesting comments here.
I must admit that I agree with you all,but only about these photos.. no art no design, look like a cheap way to do design…If someone want to do cool design with tapes, need to be more precise, giving a perfect pattern, trasform the concept of tape in a way that u cannot recognize it…this is the real “skin”. The product (the tapes of Baron) looks very nice..maybe put in a nicer way all will look different.

Baron said -“The idea is to create a covering system that create a second skin, and a second life to some old furniture that can be found in second hand market or in the street,” -“It’s design through re-design, basically.”-

ok. maybe he is right..doing nice tapes with old stylish colors or old textures could be cool..but why the object looks so silly? where is the strong “idea”? Do u want to do trasform old furniture? Do your best! ..its not enough to put your costumized adhesive tapes with nice-old-color on stuff. Maybe Im arrogant, i know, I’m not making nothing new..but i can show sample of my works to explain my ideas in a better way( how is possible use tape in more nicer way).

on myspace theres some sample of tapes over objects : http://www.myspace.com/nocurves

Sorry for the long reply. Thanks and have a nice day
