Rechner: World’s first gesture based calculator app for Apple iOS by Berger & Föhr.

“solid state” by Simon Walker. 

"The trouble begins with a design philosophy that equates “more options” with “greater freedom.” Designers struggle endlessly with a problem that is almost nonexistent for users: “How do we pack the maximum number of options into the minimum space and price?” In my experience, the instruments and tools that endure (because they are loved by their users) have limited options."

Brian Eno, “The Revenge of the Intuitive,” (13 years ago!)

Even though this came out 13 years ago, this stuff was fairly obvious to anyone who followed Steve Jobs’s thoughts on the topic; he was saying this same thing about 30 years ago.

Designer of the Bullet train also designed a sauce dispenser, a really good sauce dispenser.

Just 16 and recently released from a naval academy, Kenji Ekuan witnessed Hiroshima’s devastation from the train taking him home. “Faced with that nothingness, I felt a great nostalgia for human culture,” he recalled from the offices of G. K. Design, the firm he co-founded in Tokyo in 1952. “I needed something to touch, to look at,” he added. “Right then I decided to be a maker of things.”

One of the most enduring objects in his 60-year design career — which includes the Akita bullet train and Yamaha motorbikes — is the Kikkoman soy-sauce dispenser. Introduced in 1961, it has been in continuous production ever since. Traditional in its grace yet modern in its materials, the bottle’s design drew on Ekuan’s experiences at war’s end. 

 

Beautiful.
