Ecological ashtray designed with Felipe Escudero, going into mass production in 2013!
"I just met a Spanish artist who proposed a new project - it's a bit macho but could be interesting - he wants to punch every Spanish architect he meets in the face! To try and wake them up! It's a rather primitive form of critique but I think it encapsulates a frustration people have with what's going on in our built environment. Why should all these public spaces be privatized? Was anyone asked if they wanted another ridiculous mall in their neighborhood? But to answer your question - I think that it's done both. I'm now more aware of the compromises and processes involved when considering larger urban projects but that, in a way, makes not doing anything even more valuable." –Nils Norman
I gotta take a little time
ReplyDeleteA little time to think things over
I better read between the lines
In case I need it when I'm older
Aaaah woah-ah-aah
Now this mountain I must climb
Feels like a world upon my shoulders
And through the clouds I see smoking shine
It keeps me warm as life grows colder
In my life there's been heartache and pain
I don't know if I can face it again
Can't stop now, I've traveled so far
To change this lonely life
I wanna know what smoking is
I want you to show me
I wanna feel what smoking is
I know you can show me
Aaaah woah-oh-ooh
I'm gonna take a little time
A little time to look around me, oooh ooh-ooh ooh-ooh oooh
I've got nowhere left to hide
It looks like smoking has finally found me
In my life there's been heartache and pain
I don't know if I can face it again
I can't stop now, I've traveled so far
To change this lonely life
I wanna know what smoking is
I want you to show me
I wanna feel what smoking is
I know you can show me
I wanna know what smoking is
I want you to show me
And I wanna feel, I want to feel what smoking is
And I know, I know you can show me
Let's talk about smoking
(I wanna know what smoking is) the smoking that you feel inside
(I want you to show me) I'm feeling so much smoking
(I wanna feel what smoking is) no, you just cannot hide
(I know you can show me) yeah, woah-oh-ooh
I wanna know what smoking is, let's talk about smoking
(I want you to show me) I wanna feel it too
(I wanna feel what smoking is) I wanna feel it too
And I know, and I know, I know you can show me
Show me what is real, woah (woah), yeah I know
(I wanna know what smoking is) hey I wanna know what smoking
(I want you to show me), I wanna know, I wanna know, want know
(I wanna feel what smoking is), hey I wanna feel, smoking
I know you can show me, yeah
