DMVA Architect the ones who were responsible for the mobile Blob VB3 design were asked to add an extension to this A-framed house.  The owner wanted to reconvert his holiday home into a more comfortable, contemporary house.  So they came up with a floating volume, a tunnel built with trapezoidal wooden constructions. The new extension on the house connects the old and the new parts and creates the basis for the dimensions of the library, new bathroom and entrance. The homes back and front-side are fully glazed but on the street view side you can get some privacy by moving the partition wall that was built in if you want. Overall this A-frame got an A style design extension added into the all ready interesting styled home.

The Impossible Project has launched the Impossible Instant Lab on Kickstarter. It transforms any digital image via an iPhone into an instant photo that is exposed by using the light from the display, then it's processed and developed by chemicals. This device makes an image that can be view without the use of a phone anymore.

Pretty neat huh? Would you get one of these to turn your images from digital back to analog?

We all know that lately it has been about how big and how slim can we make TV's. So Sony has taken it a step further and has created the  84" Sony XBR 4K TV ($24,999). This new flagship set offers a 3840 x 2160, LED-backlit LCD panel, the 4K X-Reality PRO picture engine to seamlessly upscale lower-resolution content, 3D capabilities, a 10 Unit Live Speaker system cranking out virtual 5.1 surround sound, and built-in Wi-Fi for accessing online content.

I'm sure I will not be seeing this TV in my house for a couple of years, however, that doesn't mean I can't go to a Sony store and mess around with one. Check out Sony's website to get more information on this 4K TV.

The XX have opened up and shared their new album "Coexist" with us a week before their physical album comes out on Sept. 11th on Young Turks.

Don't forget to also visit their site and share the album with friends, they put some serious time in making a visual mapping of the shared album and how it is globally being shared.  That is some sweet marketing right there. Enjoy!
