One Shot laser sintered stool

MOSS MOSS: THE DAILY NEW
  Aug 1, 2011

One Shot
laser sintered
stool


manufacturer:
.MGX by Materialise, Belgium

designer:
Patrick Jouin
design year:
2006

notes:
This stool can be collapsed, like an umbrella, or opened into a stool by simply pulling or pushing the handle on the seat of the stool. Jouin's One Shot stool is named as such because it is "grown" all at once. All of the moving mechanical parts are created in one print and the stool emerges from the printing machine complete; there is no assembly. This phenomena is unique to three dimensional printing. The One Shot stool is part of the permanent collections of the Museum of Modern Art and the Smithsonian Cooper-Hewitt, National Design Museum, New York.

materials:
nylon (built through Stereolithography)

dimensions:
Ø 12.5", height: 15.75" folded dimensions: Ø 4.3", height: 25.5"

price:
$3,200

Fontessa customizable shoes by Gaetano Pesce

MOSS MOSS: THE DAILY NEW

Fontessa
customizable shoes
by Gaetano Pesce


manufacturer:
Melissa Shoes, Brazil

designer:
Gaetano Pesce
design year:
2010

notes:
Artist/Designer and Architect Gaetano Pesce (USA/Italy/Brazil), driven by the idea that the future will be customizable, has embarked on a new collaboration with the Brazilian shoe producer, Melissa, who since the late 1980's has collaborated with artists, including Jean Paul Gaultier, Zaha Hadid, Vivienne Westwood, and Fernando and Humberto Campana, to create major innovations in footwear. Moss now introduces Gaetano Pesce's customizable shoe, "Fontessa". Constructed of fused-yet-individual plastic 'droplets' which are intended to be cut away at will, to one's own design. Pesce declares, "You can wear the original shape a couple of times and then start cutting and recreating as time goes by". He continues, "Shape comes into play only at the end of a process and is merely opportunistic. It's the outcome of the original idea. It's imponderable". The shoes - comfortable, durable, recyclable, and water proof - are made of 'Melflex', a PVC which is proprietary to Melissa.

materials:
'Melflex', Melissa’s proprietary PVC

dimensions:
available in women’s sizes 5-10 (note: half sizes are not available)

price:
$120
