3-D Printing Demo

3-D printing technology was once only in the domain of professional designers, but thanks to Cubify's new at-home device, it's entered the home realm. Far from just another of-the-moment gizmo, this innovation opens the door for democratizing manufacturing. On Sunday, June 23, at 2:00 p.m. on the Demonstration Stage, join 3D Systems senior researcher Scott Turner as he demonstrates how the award-winning product works, creates an object from start to finish in real time, and chats about 3-D printing's potential.

Like its peer, the Nest, it takes into account information like bedtimes and the sunrise to use heating and cooling systems efficiently. Honeywell expects that you will control it mainly through the app itself, which lets you change the temperature from any location, or set it to a timer so the house gets warmed or cooled according to your expected arrival time.

Celebrated architect Frank Gehry designed an innovative furniture collection for Heller in 2004. The collection, which features several cubes, a bench, table, chair, and sofa, is characterized by its striking resemblance to sculpture. Although the pieces are suited for daily use, they also look quite lovely on their own—the sleek surfaces, coupled with the gentle curves and flowing lines, allow the collection to be admired for its beauty, as much as it is utilized for function. Crafted from molded polymer, the furniture is comfortable as well as versatile—it can be used indoors and out.

Beaded iPhone Cover by Vukile BatyiIt takes Durban-based designer Vukile Batyi two days to hand stitch all the beads on one of his unique Afro-bling cell phone covers. "I want to push them to the next level,” he says. “I don't want any to look similar.” Batyi collaborates with his mentor and friend Laduma Ngxokolo, whose Xhosa-inspired knitware has similar motifs. The Emerging Creatives program, in which Batyi participated, had a breakout year, collectively showing much stronger and more developed work than before.
