The Shapely Things To Come
Posted by: Keech on 25th Jun 2009 in Inspiration
NASA's X-48B Blended Wing Body aircraft passed a milestone when the experimental aircraft made its 50th flight in April this year.
Potential benefits of the aircraft include increased volume for carrying capacity, efficient aerodynamics for reduced fuel burn and possibly significant reductions in noise due to propulsion integration options.

Yes, But Is It Art?

Of course it is. And industrial design and architecture too. Eric Parry's new door handles for izé are exhibited at the Royal Academy Summer Exhibition, the first door handles ever to appear there. (The RA summer show runs until 16th August 2009)
The genesis of the Z handle, from concept drawings in Parry’s sketchbook to working models, and a cast prototype are used to address curator Will Allsop's theme of illustrating the process through working models.
The Z handle, which comes in three sizes, is part of izé's growing portfolio of creative collaboration in the field of architectural ironmongery.
