Sony Qualia, we mean Bravia NX800

There will be no Ipad news from us at all, sorry no inspiration in that one (so far, we hope for some of it to come with some apps may be) :) What we want to write about however is a new (well few months old and on shelves near you already) Sony Bravia tv, finally a model with design and picture quality so good that instantly remind us of Qualia and passion behind that long forgotten line of products.

Designer of the week - Noritaka Tatehana

What we adore the most in the works of Noritaka Tatehana, is not one but two things (much more to tell the truth), first is a very clearly communicated wafuku feeling, and when we say wafuku we do not mean Japanese classical clothing we mean much more, an essence behind, a warm feeling and the taste of a bitter tea if you wish. Second is the perfect balance in colors and patterns, we haven’t seen such beautiful combination for quite some time. We strictly recommend checking flickr for some nice resolution photos.

Masatsugu Nagasoe for DoCoMo

Inspirations are timeless as well as the good design is. In this particular case we are looking at NTT DoCoMo Direct Menu UI design from 2008 – a collaboration with Masatsugu Nagasoe, mainly known as a Video director with some exiting music videos like this one. As you can see from the video clip above (may take some time to open) this collaboration brings a very graphically stunning design to the phones interface, at the end it all comes to the links list, which is not very exiting but we would still love to see graphics like those to appear more often on the phones of manufacturers like Nokia or Samsung.
