    Nemo 33 is the deepest pool in the world, located in Brussels, Belgium, contains 2.5 million liters of non-Chlorinated, filtered and clean water.
    In the early 90 traveler John Beernaerts used a table mat to sketch his idea of a friend during dinner, a lovely pool to practice diving; diving conditions so be very close to Bora Bora.

    Diving differences between a normal pool and this diving pool which it’s specially designed are very large, so the designer wanted to instill a love for diving close to those who are unable to travel around to places that allow diving. By creating Nemo 33 in Belgium has brought a whole underwater world.

    The deepest level reaching 133 feet deep, making it 33 nemo the deepest indoor pool in the world, the deepest pool encountered simulated caves, platforms and more than 33 meters deep pit.
    Nemo is designed to provide conditions of immersion for everyone from beginners to the more advanced persons in diving sport, so has a place inside pool for beginners, where they can enjoy and exploit an underwater world very different.

    The plant is used for this extravagant pool and multi-purpose, recreational use, and various military training dive packages, but also it’s used for movie productions.

    Pool still shows visitors different windows through which they can admire the persons that are in deep water at different levels.

  • Next Generation Tennis Table by Robert Lindström

    Next Generation Tennis Table by Robert Lindström

    How does it sounds a tennis table that sees, feels and hears the game you play with your friends? Well, maybe these kind of ideas and products are worth of a SF movie , but could you think that they will not be part of the near future? We recognize we haven’t thought until now to such an intelligent new generation tennis table with which practically you can discuss to improve your tennis skills or tell your point of view about the game. The idea and concept of a smart ping-pong table belongs to Robert Lindström, a designer passionate about product design and new technologies and what can be made using the combination of the two.

    This amazing modern tennis table will display a quite simple minimalist design which integrates an advanced computer system integration, that allows a never-seen before features to be available for future users. “Waldner”, as it was named, in Robert Lindström’s vision the table will be equipped with Siri voice recognition that monitors the game along with a Mac Pro 12-core computer, with two 2.4GHz Quad-Core Intel Xeon E5620 “Westmere” processors and an ATI Radeon HD 5870 graphic cards, a Wi-Fi connection and 12 Bose micro speakers under the touch-sensitive surface which acts as a huge screen from Samsung made of soft acrylic.

    Due to this material, the table’s surface will have the correct smooth, low-friction coating and will have embedded touch sensors which shows all kind of statistics and information about the balls’ speed and trajectory during the game that is stored and can be visualized as real time 3D on devices as iPad and iPhones. Moreover, the surface will feature clean, thin and straight digits that come along with the rest of the design. Although this striking tennis table is perhaps expensive to put in production today, we subscribe to designer’s opinion which thinks the ever-accelerating technology will have such an impact on simple products. Do you think we will see such tennis table in real life one day?

  • Los Molles House by Max Núñez Arquitectos

    Los Molles House by Max Núñez Arquitectos

    Los Molles, a beautiful house designed by Max Núñez Arquitectos architecture office based in Santiago, Chile, the Los Molles house does not have a direct view of the ocean, but it’s a beach house,with a great part of a landscape, Open Pacific Panorama  was replaced with an orientation towards a group of trees and hills after the east coast.


    To keep away from the life on the beach this house with a secluded courtyard is ideal.
    The land is divided into 5 parallel strips, occupying the place in total length, neighbor distances are given by local rules as we see a neighbor to the north and one on the south, it’s because this place has two strips of gardens.

    In the interior we see two bars separated by a strip of garden four feet wide. This combination, home-garden-house-garden alternates both inside and outside of the house., these are placed at different topographic levels, as part of the roof can be used as a terrace, in this aspect the roof become part of this whole ensemble of gardens. These ingenious combinations of interior and exterior by combining elements produce an equivalence between interior and exterior spaces. Parallel inside and outside external links encourages more outdoor life.
    In winter we observe a decrease of the visitor number, temperatures become lower house adopts a more introverted lifestyle. The house is equipped with the ability to close the inferior levels used in the summer, so it remains open only the second floor. The two floors of the house are constructed to provide a strong contrast between the floor and the bright roof structure . The roof is made of steel and wood, thus obtaining a lighter structure.

  • De-Cluttering your Home Office

    De-Cluttering your Home Office

    Working from home is a must for many entrepreneurs or freelancers, but creating a constructive work environment at home is essential – and more difficult than many expect.

    Life’s distractions have a way of butting in, whether that means you find yourself doing laundry instead of creating a document, or watching daytime TV instead of replying to emails. Work and home time blur together, meaning that you may do the dishes in the middle of the day but write client presentations at 10pm. This is a particular problem for those with families – you don’t want to be work in a cluttered living/kitchen area while the kids race about and your partner wants to spend time together as a family.

    One of the first questions to ask yourself when designing a home office is whether you will have to hold any meetings. Many people feel unsafe bringing clients to their home, so finding a cheap virtual office service may be one of the first steps to getting your home office in order and keeping the clutter under control.

    Virtual offices eliminate the need for many trappings of a home office, meaning you can concentrate your limited space on what matters. Virtual office services assign a professional business address, protecting your family’s privacy and making you look bigger than you are; this often comes along with a mail forwarding service to have any business mail forwarded on to your own address. Another benefit is telephone answering – a small business owner may not be able to pay for a
    full-time receptionist, let alone having a separate business mobile phone line. Instead, a virtual receptionist may be used, who can answer all calls with their company name. The virtual receptionist can then put the call through to them if necessary.

    After you know what you won’t need (another phone line, a professional meeting space), you can focus on what you will need to have in the home. Some further tips for creating a successfully de-cluttered home office include keeping the design simple and giving it a light feel. Use neutral colours and consider adding storage units to one wall; this allows one area to become a feature where the eye is drawn, as well as providing a functional aspect where you can arrange filing and keep clutter to a minimum in the rest of the space.

    The biggest design tip for keeping your home office under control is understanding what you don’t actually need – after this, the rest is down to corralling your things in a proscribed area and arranging a system that will keep it organized. After this, it’s smooth sailing to business success and,
    someday, a business office of your own outside the home.
