Design is often like playing jazz. Lay down a structuring rhythm, find a snappy theme, and then improvise. This is especially true where time and budget are tight, as in this office fit-out for Danone Waters. Bottled water is the clients business, and so unsurprisingly water became the theme. Danone has two main product lines in Japan, Volvic and Evian. The basic plan arrangement picks up on this division, and the water theme unfolds from the elements and characteristics of these two products. Daikanyama, Tokyo 3.2005

The design with the circular cutouts lets you peek through to your credit cards, a very handy and appreciated feature that also adds a splash of funkiness to the wallet.

Encaustics originated in 18th century Europe and consisted of marble dust, cement and natural granite colors. Todays less expensive tiles are made by layering cement and then adding pigment. They may not hold up as well as the originals, but were talking a huge price difference! There are still companies that fabricate handmade encaustics to match historic tiles, but lets concentrate on affordability.

Do you have one zillion plastic drugstore and grocery bags under your sink, or perhaps smushed into a drawer? Ever wanted a cheap and easy use for them? One that leaves you with an intriguing and useful homemade craft supply? Do you have an iron? Why don't you fuse them together?
