設計的思考

觀看以下的百大設計,挑出你認為最好的三個設計,並說明選取的理由。

oTime雜誌選擇的百大設計

(1)Tzuni Tea

A centuries-old tradition in China, "blossoming" tea is still a relative rarity

Stateside. Tzuni's tea pearls are made of jasmine, lilies and other flowers

grown in China. Each pearl is hand sewn with cotton thread, which loosens

whenimm ersed in hot water, allowing the buds (eight for $10) to blossom

into flowers—making Tzuni's glass teapot ($26) a necessity.

在瓶子裡加入熱水後,瓶中的花就會綻放,這樣的設計我在之前就已經看過

了,我覺得這是一個相當不錯的設計,當消費者一面加著熱水,一面看著花

朵慢慢綻放,心情也會跟著放鬆、愉悅了起來,不但讓身心同時都得到了滿

足,更讓泡茶這件事添增了趣味性。


(2)Nordpark Cable Railway


Innsbruck, Austria

It's difficult to say what's more breathtaking: the four railway stations that

Zaha Hadid designed, which climb from the Innsbruck city center up the

Nordkette mountain, or the Alpine landscapes along the route.

The stations—double-curvature glass shells that seem to hover above co

ncrete platforms—were conceived with particular care toward the specific

topography and surroundings of each location. To achieve each one's un

ique appearance of a flowing ice formation frozen in place, Hadid studied

glacial moraines and ice movements.

一開始看到這個設計還以為可能是水族館之類的建築,在看了文字內容之後

才了解,原來這是一個車站,而它不同於一般直角造型的車站,整體呼應了

當地的環境,採用了冰河的概念,使用了曲線以及曲面,讓建築看起來更加

優美。

(3)Le 2 de Guerlain


For its new Le 2 de Guerlain mascara, Guerlain teamed with Danish desi

gner Helle Damkjaer to create a refined, fluid and utterly clas pable doub

le-brush shape.

不同於一般睫毛膏採用較正規的外殼造型,它的商品所希望傳達的是精煉、

流動的感覺,因此採用了曲面以及流線型來傳達出流動的效果,而整體色彩

使用了金色,給人高貴、精鍊以及時尚感。
