HRUSKA SET

I would like to show of the pictures from development process behind the HRUSKA GLASS SET. I think it is essential also for general public to have an idea what is behind each product that is available in the shops, how much energy designers and manufactures have to put in the project to bring it successfully to the market.

I have to make a note that following process could take 3-9 month from first sketch until you see the product on the shelves. You would be very lucky if you could make this in 3 months :-)

On a personal note I completely agree sympathise with this, people generally have no idea what a designer has to compete with.. the sometimes frustrating but necessary R&D that we go through, hate it at the time but certainly worth it to see the outcome.. also these workshop photos make me miss times slaving away on developments.. I need to get back in to some workshops!

Heart of Glass: The Art of Medical Models

(a) This model shows the main arteries of the brain, including the Circle of Willis and Basilar artery. The measurements of a cadaver casting were used to make this model.

(b) This model includes the trachea and the detailed branches of the bronchial tree. The bronchial rings were added using the measurements from a cadaver casting to make the model look and feel anatomical.

We don’t know much about this artist but after reading the article about how he teamed up with Coca Cola on Design Boom we were impressed and excited to see more.
