It is a joint project between Stockholm Resilience Centre - an interdisciplinary research institute on sustainable development at the Stockholm University, Albaeco - a nonprofit organization that communicates science within the field of sustainability to the public, politicians and corporations, Mistra Urban Futures, SWEDESD, and Gotland University. Questions: How can the project be developed through strategy and concept design? How can you improve communication skills through design and communication? How can you create a graphic identity and platform that is flexible and can be expanded to include similar platforms? Project: I worked with Urban Planet through strategy and concept development, and created a graphic identity, developed the design of the website and printed materials for the Shanghai World Expo 2010. - Bakgrund: Urban Planet är en global webbaserad lärandeplattform, som ska visa på de interrelationella sambanden mellan forskning inom hållbar utveckling och projekt som agerar för att lösa de hållbarhetsutmaningar som världen står inför. Projektet är ett samarbete mellan Stockholm Resilience Centre - en tvärvetenskaplig forskningsinstitution inom hållbar utveckling på Stockholms Universitet, Albaeco - en icke-vinstgivande organisation som kommunicerar forskningen till bl.a. allmänheten, politiker och företag, Mistra Urban Futures, SWEDESD, and Gotland University. Frågeställning: Hur kan projektet utvecklas genom strategi och konceptdesign? Hur kan man öka den kommunikativa förmågan genom design och kommunikation? Hur kan man skapa en grafisk identitet och plattform som är flexibel och kan expanderas? Projekt: Jag arbetade med Urban Planet genom strategi och konceptutveckling, samt skapade en grafisk identitet, utveckling av designen av hemsida och trycksaker inför presentation av projektet på Shanghai World Expo 2010. http://www.erikrosin.com/4-The-Spare-Time http://www.erikrosin.com/following/erikrosin.com/4-The-Spare-Time Sat, 15 May 2010 20:09:01 +0000 Erik Rosin Studio 412907 <img src="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/0/26458/412907/smultron.jpg" border="0" width="670" height="418" width_o="676" height_o="422" src_o="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/0/26458/412907/smultron_o.jpg" align="left" /> <img src="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/0/26458/412907/1smultron.jpg" border="0" width="670" height="418" width_o="676" height_o="422" src_o="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/0/26458/412907/1smultron_o.jpg" align="left" /> <img src="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/0/26458/412907/4_peter.jpg" border="0" width="670" height="418" width_o="676" height_o="422" src_o="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/0/26458/412907/4_peter_o.jpg" align="left" /> <img src="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/0/26458/412907/4_peter1.jpg" border="0" width="670" height="418" width_o="676" height_o="422" src_o="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/0/26458/412907/4_peter1_o.jpg" align="left" /> <img src="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/0/26458/412907/5_peter.jpg" border="0" width="670" height="418" width_o="676" height_o="422" src_o="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/0/26458/412907/5_peter_o.jpg" align="left" /> <img src="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/0/26458/412907/6smultron.jpg" border="0" width="670" height="418" width_o="676" height_o="422" src_o="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/0/26458/412907/6smultron_o.jpg" align="left" /> <img src="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/0/26458/412907/7_martina.jpg" border="0" width="670" height="418" width_o="676" height_o="422" src_o="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/0/26458/412907/7_martina_o.jpg" align="left" /> <img src="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/0/26458/412907/8_martina.jpg" border="0" width="670" height="418" width_o="676" height_o="422" src_o="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/0/26458/412907/8_martina_o.jpg" align="left" /> <img src="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/0/26458/412907/9_martina.jpg" border="0" width="670" height="418" width_o="676" height_o="422" src_o="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/0/26458/412907/9_martina_o.jpg" align="left" /> <img src="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/0/26458/412907/10_plattan.jpg" border="0" width="670" height="418" width_o="676" height_o="422" src_o="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/0/26458/412907/10_plattan_o.jpg" align="left" /> <img src="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/0/26458/412907/11_martin.jpg" border="0" width="670" height="418" width_o="676" height_o="422" src_o="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/0/26458/412907/11_martin_o.jpg" align="left" /> <img src="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/0/26458/412907/12_martin.jpg" border="0" width="670" height="418" width_o="676" height_o="422" src_o="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/0/26458/412907/12_martin_o.jpg" align="left" /> <img src="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/0/26458/412907/13_martin.jpg" border="0" width="670" height="418" width_o="676" height_o="422" src_o="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/0/26458/412907/13_martin_o.jpg" align="left" /> <img src="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/0/26458/412907/smultron.jpg" border="0" width="670" height="418" width_o="676" height_o="422" src_o="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/0/26458/412907/smultron_o.jpg" align="left" /> <img src="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/0/26458/412907/14_gallerian.jpg" border="0" width="670" height="418" width_o="676" height_o="422" src_o="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/0/26458/412907/14_gallerian_o.jpg" align="left" /> <img src="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/0/26458/412907/15_hamid.jpg" border="0" width="670" height="418" width_o="676" height_o="422" src_o="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/0/26458/412907/15_hamid_o.jpg" align="left" /> <img src="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/0/26458/412907/16_hamid.jpg" border="0" width="670" height="418" width_o="676" height_o="422" src_o="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/0/26458/412907/16_hamid_o.jpg" align="left" /> Background: We can lower our total consumption rate by choosing to out pick some of our private welfare growth in more spare time, which would lower the stress on our environment and give us time to deepen our life. Question: How can you inspire people to choose more time off instead of consumption and to experience places in your nearby surroundings? Project: In “My favourite spot” you can swop your favourite spots for someone elses. I collected spots from my fellow students, and went out in town to swop them. - Bakgrund: Vi kan minska vår totala konsumtion genom att ta ut delar av den privata välfärdsökningen i mera fri tid, vilket skulle minska belastningen på miljön och ge oss tid att fördjupa livskänslan. Frågeställning: Hur kan jag inspirera till att välja fri tid före konsumtion och att upptäcka guldkornen i sin närmiljö? Projekt: Genom Smultronstället kan man byta sin favoritplats mot någon annans. Jag samlade smultronställen av vänner på skolan i forma av en kort text och en linjeteckning, och gav mig ut på stan för att byta dessa. http://www.erikrosin.com/3-The-Stuff http://www.erikrosin.com/following/erikrosin.com/3-The-Stuff Sat, 15 May 2010 20:07:30 +0000 Erik Rosin Studio 412897 <img src="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/0/26458/412897/0_alla.jpg" border="0" width="670" height="418" width_o="676" height_o="422" src_o="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/0/26458/412897/0_alla_o.jpg" align="left" /> <img src="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/0/26458/412897/1text.jpg" border="0" width="670" height="418" width_o="676" height_o="422" src_o="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/0/26458/412897/1text_o.jpg" align="left" /> <img src="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/0/26458/412897/2barn.jpg" border="0" width="670" height="418" width_o="676" height_o="422" src_o="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/0/26458/412897/2barn_o.jpg" align="left" /> <img src="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/0/26458/412897/3komm.jpg" border="0" width="670" height="418" width_o="676" height_o="422" src_o="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/0/26458/412897/3komm_o.jpg" align="left" /> <img src="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/0/26458/412897/4webb.jpg" border="0" width="670" height="418" width_o="676" height_o="422" src_o="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/0/26458/412897/4webb_o.jpg" align="left" /> <img src="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/0/26458/412897/5hyra.jpg" border="0" width="670" height="418" width_o="676" height_o="422" src_o="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/0/26458/412897/5hyra_o.jpg" align="left" /> <img src="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/0/26458/412897/6byta.jpg" border="0" width="670" height="418" width_o="676" height_o="422" src_o="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/0/26458/412897/6byta_o.jpg" align="left" /> <img src="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/0/26458/412897/7service.jpg" border="0" width="670" height="418" width_o="676" height_o="422" src_o="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/0/26458/412897/7service_o.jpg" align="left" /> Background: When having children, new needs are beeing created and one needs to acquire lots of products to fill these. Question: How can you inspire people to rent products for children, instead of buying them? Project: I have made a visualization of a service, a library for children products, where a housing company offers the tenants products like strollers, car safety seats, bicycles and toys, amongst others. - Bakgrund: När man skaffar barn skapas nya behov och man behöver skaffa sig många nya saker för att fylla dessa. Frågeställning: Hur kan man inspirera till att hyra istället för att köpa barnsaker? Projekt: Barnsaksbiblioteket är en visualisering av en tjänst där ett bostadsbolag erbjuder de boende att hyra barnsaker såsom barnvagnar, bilbarnstolar, cyklar, leksaker med mera. http://www.erikrosin.com/2-The-Steak http://www.erikrosin.com/following/erikrosin.com/2-The-Steak Sat, 15 May 2010 20:03:30 +0000 Erik Rosin Studio 412893 <img src="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/0/26458/412893/mfm1.jpg" border="0" width="670" height="418" width_o="676" height_o="422" src_o="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/0/26458/412893/mfm1_o.jpg" align="left" /> <img src="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/0/26458/412893/mfm2_2.jpg" border="0" width="670" height="418" width_o="676" height_o="422" src_o="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/0/26458/412893/mfm2_2_o.jpg" align="left" /> <img src="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/0/26458/412893/mfm3.jpg" border="0" width="670" height="418" width_o="676" height_o="422" src_o="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/0/26458/412893/mfm3_o.jpg" align="left" /> <img src="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/0/26458/412893/mfm4.jpg" border="0" width="670" height="418" width_o="676" height_o="422" src_o="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/0/26458/412893/mfm4_o.jpg" align="left" /> <img src="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/0/26458/412893/mfm5.jpg" border="0" width="670" height="418" width_o="676" height_o="422" src_o="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/0/26458/412893/mfm5_o.jpg" align="left" /> <img src="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/0/26458/412893/mfm6.jpg" border="0" width="670" height="418" width_o="676" height_o="422" src_o="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/0/26458/412893/mfm6_o.jpg" align="left" /> <img src="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/0/26458/412893/mfm7.jpg" border="0" width="670" height="418" width_o="676" height_o="422" src_o="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/0/26458/412893/mfm7_o.jpg" align="left" /> Background: Today, 30% of our personal carbon footprint comes from food, the meat industry is responsible for 20% of our global emissions.

To me, being a designer comes with the question: How do we meet our needs in the best and most resource-effective way? In today’s market economy, we often create problems that nobody is really in need of solving. Our role has to a large extent come to resemble a kind of trafficker of consumerism. I want the role of the designer to be responsible, from an ecological, an economical as well as a humanistic perspective. The creation of sustainable development is the most important issue in society today. I want to work in projects where the role of the designer can be an inspiration to others to see the possibilities in a more sustainable world. - Designerrollen innefattar för mig frågan: Hur möter vi bäst och mest resurseffektivt våra behov? I dagens marknadsekonomi skapar vi dock ofta problem som ingen egentligen har behov av att lösa. Vår roll har till stor del blivit som konsumismens langare. Jag vill att designerrollen ska vara ansvarstagande utifrån ett ekologiskt, ekonomiskt och humanistiskt perspektiv. Skapandet av hållbar utveckling är samtidens viktigaste fråga. Jag har arbetat med fyra projekt som visar hur designerrollen kan inspirera andra till att se möjligheterna med en mer hållbar värld. http://www.erikrosin.com/Swop-Art http://www.erikrosin.com/following/erikrosin.com/Swop-Art Sat, 10 Apr 2010 12:45:38 +0000 Erik Rosin Studio 352356 <img src="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/0/26458/352356/swopart-symbol.png" border="0" width="670" height="418" width_o="676" height_o="422" src_o="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/0/26458/352356/swopart-symbol_o.png" align="left" /> <img src="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/0/26458/352356/swopart-logo-text-white.png" border="0" width="670" height="418" width_o="676" height_o="422" src_o="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/0/26458/352356/swopart-logo-text-white_o.png" align="left" /> <img src="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/0/26458/352356/swopart-identitet-grey.png" border="0" width="670" height="418" width_o="676" height_o="422" src_o="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/0/26458/352356/swopart-identitet-grey_o.png" align="left" /> <img src="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/0/26458/352356/swopart-web.png" border="0" width="670" height="418" width_o="676" height_o="422" src_o="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/0/26458/352356/swopart-web_o.png" align="left" /> <img src="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/0/26458/352356/swopart-visitkort.png" border="0" width="670" height="418" width_o="676" height_o="422" src_o="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/0/26458/352356/swopart-visitkort_o.png" align="left" /> <img src="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/0/26458/352356/swopart-poster.png" border="0" width="670" height="418" width_o="676" height_o="422" src_o="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/0/26458/352356/swopart-poster_o.png" align="left" /> <img src="http://www.erikrosin.com/media_temp/1/0/26458/352356/swopart-åvc.jpg" border="0" width="670" height="418" width_o="676" height_o="422" src_o="http://www.erikrosin.com/media_temp/1/0/26458/352356/swopart-åvc_o.jpg" align="left" /> <img src="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/0/26458/352356/swopart-taklampan.jpg" border="0" width="670" height="418" width_o="676" height_o="422" src_o="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/0/26458/352356/swopart-taklampan_o.jpg" align="left" /> To visit the webpage, please press here. Background: Swop art is a newly opened gallery/swopshop/studio for creatives who find value in things other people consider beeing waste. The ambition is to upcycle waste into art, jewelry, clothing and design - giving it a new life. Prior to their opening they needed a graphic identity, webpage and interior design. Question: How can you make a graphic identity which communicates the ambitions of the gallery? How can you fill the need of flexible interior design by reusing materials? Project: The graphic identity includes a logo, business cards, flyers, posters and a webpage, with the ambition to express progressivity, positivity and creativity. To create the interior design, we engaged in a workshop where we spent a day at Vanadisbergets recycling central, asking people for their soon-to-be thrown away materials and objects. Then we redesigned them and gave them a new life as an interior in the gallery. Relight is one of the resulted objects, which now can be seen at Roslagsgatan 60 in Stockholm. The interior was made in a collaboration with Fredrik Ohlén and Oscar Andersson. - Bakgrund: Swop art är ett nyöppnat galleri/swopshop/kontor för kreatörer som genom konst och design förhöjer värdet på sådant som andra kallar skräp. De hade innan sin öppning behov av både inredning och en grafisk profil. Frågeställning: Hur kan man skapa en grafisk identitet som kommunicerar galleriets ambitioner? Hur kan man fylla behovet av inredning genom att enbart använda sig av återanvänt material? Projekt: Den grafiska identiteten innefattar logotyp, visitkort, flyers, posters och hemsida och vill uttrycka progressivitet, positivitet och kreativitet. Till inredningen skapade vi en workshop, då vi spenderade en dag på Vanadisbergets återvinningscentral och samlade in människors bortkastade material och objekt.

They have also played a large part in creating a disposable-culture around interior design, similar to the fashion industry. Question: How can Ikea evolve to become a responsible and credible actor in the sustainability discourse, and how could this practically be reflected in their external communication and catalog? Project: By using a system of Life Cycle Assessment, Ikea can find out the impact of their products throughout their life, and communicate this to customers who can then make an active choice when purchasing. At the same time, by starting to produce for example the bookshelf Billy at local woodworks to order, Ikea can take a step from disposable to a more sustainable product. To investigate the cost of this, a number of Billy drawings were sent to local woodwork with answers in the form of quotations for approximate cost of production. - Bakgrund: Ikea är en av globaliseringens stora vinnare, deras affärsmodell har varit framgångsrik i att skapa tillväxt under 1900-talets ekonomiska struktur. De har också haft en stor del i att skapa en slit och släng-kultur kring inredning, som liknar den i modebranschen. Frågeställning: Hur kan Ikea utvecklas till att bli en ansvarstagande och trovärdig aktör i hållbarhetsdiskursen, och hur skulle detta praktiskt kunna ta sig uttryck i deras externa kommunikation och sortiment? Projekt: Genom att använda ett system för Livscykelanalys kan Ikea ta reda på vilken påverkan deras produkter har under hela sin livstid, och kommunicera detta för kunder som då kan göra ett aktivt val vid köp. Samtidigt genom att börja producera exempelvis bokhyllan Billy lokalt på snickerier på beställning, så kan Ikea ta ett steg från slit och släng till ett mer hållbart produktsortiment. För att undersöka kostnaden för detta skickades ett antal Billy-ritningar ut till lokala snickerier med svar i form av offerter på ungefärlig tillverkningskostnad. http://www.erikrosin.com/1-The-Space http://www.erikrosin.com/following/erikrosin.com/1-The-Space Sat, 10 Apr 2010 11:57:01 +0000 Erik Rosin Studio 352331 <img src="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/0/26458/352331/blue_fwd_web.jpg" border="0" width="670" height="418" width_o="676" height_o="422" src_o="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/0/26458/352331/blue_fwd_web_o.jpg" align="left" /> <img src="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/0/26458/352331/gran_fram_web.jpg" border="0" width="670" height="418" width_o="676" height_o="422" src_o="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/0/26458/352331/gran_fram_web_o.jpg" align="left" /> <img src="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/0/26458/352331/gran_web.jpg" border="0" width="670" height="418" width_o="676" height_o="422" src_o="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/0/26458/352331/gran_web_o.jpg" align="left" /> <img src="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/0/26458/352331/blue_web.jpg" border="0" width="670" height="418" width_o="676" height_o="422" src_o="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/0/26458/352331/blue_web_o.jpg" align="left" /> <img src="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/0/26458/352331/staplade_web.jpg" border="0" width="670" height="418" width_o="676" height_o="422" src_o="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/0/26458/352331/staplade_web_o.jpg" align="left" /> <img src="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/0/26458/352331/expo1_web.jpg" border="0" width="670" height="418" width_o="676" height_o="422" src_o="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/0/26458/352331/expo1_web_o.jpg" align="left" /> <img src="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/0/26458/352331/skruvar_web.jpg" border="0" width="670" height="418" width_o="676" height_o="422" src_o="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/0/26458/352331/skruvar_web_o.jpg" align="left" /> <img src="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/0/26458/352331/verkstad1_web.jpg" border="0" width="670" height="418" width_o="676" height_o="422" src_o="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/0/26458/352331/verkstad1_web_o.jpg" align="left" /> <img src="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/0/26458/352331/verkstad2_web.jpg" border="0" width="670" height="418" width_o="676" height_o="422" src_o="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/0/26458/352331/verkstad2_web_o.jpg" align="left" /> <img src="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/0/26458/352331/lim_web.jpg" border="0" width="670" height="418" width_o="676" height_o="422" src_o="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/0/26458/352331/lim_web_o.jpg" align="left" /> <img src="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/0/26458/352331/people.jpg" border="0" width="670" height="418" width_o="676" height_o="422" src_o="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/0/26458/352331/people_o.jpg" align="left" /> Background: The value of interior design is decreasing and is being consumed in a faster and faster cycle. Question: How can you inspire people to use the cradle to cradle-principles, and at the same time raise the value of the materials used and highlight the working time spent in making interior design. Project: Interior design of high quality which is based on a systematic reuse of materials. - Bakgrund: Värdet av inredning sjunker och börjar konsumeras i en allt snabbare cykel. Frågeställning: Hur kan jag inspirera till att använda vagga till vagga-principen och samtidigt förhöja materialens värde och belysa den bakomliggande arbetstiden? Projekt: Högkvalitativ inredning som bygger på systematisk återanvändning av material, såsom reglar och dörrar. http://www.erikrosin.com/Origami-Nemuro http://www.erikrosin.com/following/erikrosin.com/Origami-Nemuro Tue, 16 Mar 2010 20:36:44 +0000 Erik Rosin Studio 313950 <img src="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/0/26458/313950/origaminemuro-closeup.jpg" border="0" width="670" height="418" width_o="676" height_o="422" src_o="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/0/26458/313950/origaminemuro-closeup_o.jpg" align="left" /> <img src="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/0/26458/313950/fuji1.jpg" border="0" width="670" height="418" width_o="676" height_o="422" src_o="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/0/26458/313950/fuji1_o.jpg" align="left" /> <img src="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/0/26458/313950/kamisamebut.jpg" border="0" width="670" height="418" width_o="676" height_o="422" src_o="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/0/26458/313950/kamisamebut_o.jpg" align="left" /> Background: During my research to create a sleeping place for an urban young couple, I found an absence in the market of an affordable more environmentally-friendly option. Question: How can you make a place to sleep which is sustainable, flexible and affordable? Idea: A sleeping place is often static in both its expression and function, even though the need for sleep is everything but static when you live together. One wants to read whilst the other wants to sleep. One rises early whilst the other has a lie-in. The soft module Kuro transforms the bed according to the user’s needs. Make a blackout, a headboard, a silencer or just a decoration of an unmade bed. The bed Kami has a bedding that is foldable according to needs and the bedside table Fuji has the shape of an extended tetrahedron. The shapes of the three units are inspired by origami, geometry and the golden ratio. The choice of materials, where life cycle thinking is central, is influenced by the Japanese philosophy Wabi-Sabi. What nature has created can be decomposed by nature. In collaboration with: Bozzolo beds, Bogesunds Väveri, Fredells Byggvaruhus, and Seng Shui: silk wadding quilts and pillows. - Bakgrund: Under min research för att skapa en sovplats för ett ungt par i en storstad, så fann jag en avsaknad på marknaden av ett prisvärt miljövänligt alternativ för en yngre målgrupp. Frågeställning: Hur kan man skapa en sovplats som är hållbar, flexibel och prisvärd? Projekt: En sovplats är ofta statisk i både uttryck och funktion, trots att behovet av sömn är allt annat än statiskt när man bor tillsammans. Den ena vill läsa när den andra vill sova. En går upp tidigt medan den andra har sovmorgon. Den mjuka modulen Kuro transformerar sängen efter användarens önskan. Man kan mörklägga, bygga en sänggavel, dämpa ljud eller utsmycka en obäddad säng. Sängen Kami har en klädsel som går att vika efter behov och sängbordet Fuji har formen av en utvikt tetraeder. Formspråket i de tre enheterna är inspirerat av origami, geometri och det gyllene snittet. Valet av material, där kretsloppstänkande är centralt, är influerat av den japanska filosofin Wabi-Sabi. Det som naturen skapat kan naturen också bryta ner. http://www.erikrosin.com/Unfolded http://www.erikrosin.com/following/erikrosin.com/Unfolded Tue, 16 Mar 2010 20:14:54 +0000 Erik Rosin Studio 313886 <img src="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/0/26458/313886/unfolded-web.jpg" border="0" width="670" height="418" width_o="676" height_o="422" src_o="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/0/26458/313886/unfolded-web_o.jpg" align="left" /> <img src="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/0/26458/313886/1234---web.jpg" border="0" width="670" height="418" width_o="676" height_o="422" src_o="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/0/26458/313886/1234---web_o.jpg" align="left" /> Second prize winner in a competition held by Barnens Bokklubb, to design a bookend for members of bokstödet.se, which is a website for children and young adults with reading and writing difficulties. Background: Dyslexia is a learning disorder that manifests itself as a difficulty with reading decoding, reading comprehension and/or reading fluency. It concerns approximitely 4 to 8 percent of the population. In my research I found parents and teachers of dyslexic children emphasizing the importance of daily reading, to enhance the learning. They talked about motivation through the setting of goals, and rewarding when the goals were met. Question: How can you make a bookend which inspires and motivates dyslexic children and parents to read, which is easy to distribute via mail? Project: My idea is based on a "motivational bookmark", which is to be used in the daily reading. The parent and child together creates a goal and reward, which the child is beeing reminded of every day. This makes it easy to adapt according to the childs age and interests, making the goal and reward very personal. The shape of the bookend was inspired by origami and how you fold "dog-ears" in books. The importance was to make it take up as little space in the postal service as possible, to make it sustainable, easy to produce and playful. The ambition is to use a recyclable material in production, preferrably a stronger version of paper. - Bakgrund: Barnens Bokklubbs utlyste en tävling att formge ett bokstöd åt dyslektiska barn. Mitt förslag är inspirerat av tips från föräldrar och pedagoger till dyslektiska barn, som poängterade vikten av att läsa dagligen, samt hur man kunde motivera barnet till detta genom att sätta upp mål och ge belöningar. Frågeställning: Hur kan man skapa ett bokstöd som inspirerar dyslektiska barn och föräldrar att läsa, och enkelt kan skickas via post? Projekt: Genom ett “motivationsbokmärke” som används som en morot i läsningen, sätter man gemensamt upp ett mål och belöning. Det kan lätt anpassas efter barnets ålder och intressen, och tillsammans skapas något väldigt personligt. Formen till bokstödet utgår från att ta så lite plats i posten som möjligt, vara enkelt att producera, hållbart och lekfullt. Jag inspirerades av origami samt hur man viker “hundöron” i böcker.
