Schönes Fundstück (via Dezeen): Der Südkoreanische Designer Jinil Park bastelt Tische, Stühle und Lampen aus Stahldrähten, die so aussehen wie Strichzeichnungen.
Im vergangenen Jahr habe ich meinen Blog wiederbelebt. Was ich in den Jahren 2003-2005 angefangen hatte (und dann ruhen liess) sollte sich nun von Reiseerfahrungen hin zu etwas Hintergründigerem bewegen.

We arrived perfectly right in the Beaujolais region in France for a special weekend: Selected farmers open their gates to the public to show their love for the food they produce. It's called "De ferme en ferme" - meaning "From farm to farm" and a great chance to get an insight on how they work... Continue Reading →
Getting everything set up for April 26th meant a new challenge for our team. We had rolled out 8 cities before, but with 1000 smart vehicles, the fleet was more than double the size of any other car2go city before. Everything was prepared perfectly by the rollout team, people from every department supported the tight... Continue Reading →
