Summerwind
The Summerwind armchair is an outdoor piece of furniture that you can use as usually in the garden, on the terrace, and you can also use it in your swimming pool, in the water. Indeed it uses the same technique of manufacturing as the maritime buoys, that is to say roto molding.
The armrests of the chair help for the flotation and for the balance of it on the water. Also, the small holes at the back allows water to come inside the seat to get the whole set stable.
Designer: John Nouanesing (France)
Material: HD polyethylene

CeramiX
CeramiX = (East + West)ceramics
China has a long tradition in the production of ceramics and especially porcelain while Europe has for many centuries tried to copy the Chinese in that field. Nowadays our world is invaded by Chinese products that in most cases attempt to imitate those Europeans… CeramiX is a reflection upon the irony of history through the world of ceramics.

Manufacturer: (Italy)

Augmented Sculpture
The core of the installation is a 2,5m tall wooden sculpture that builds the screen for a 360° projection with virtual content. The projection constantly augments the sculptures outside within a 2:32 min. long, dramaturgically structured edit of video content to a track by musician Jon Hopkins.
The sculpture becomes a mirror of changing realities. As a result, a kind of real virtuality arises to confront virtual reality.
Designer: LICHTFRONT (Germany)

EREBUS by Georgios Cherouvim
There once used to be a small but beautiful blue rock somewhere within the vast void of the universe. Life appeared on its crust relatively fast and as usual through out the evolution, one of the species dominated the rest, by forming complex societies to overcome its primordial survival needs.
