Growing vegetables in the backyard or in front of the house is always a common and enthusiastic hobby among a range of people. Many people find this hobby an appreciable one, and others consider this as a total waste of time and energy. But now, its time to rethink.
The most crucial problem the future civilization is going to face is the scarcity of food. Meat and fish would probably be forgotten lot before due to the global environmental disaster and fruits and vegetables are the only food alternative mankind can rely which would also become hard to be produced due to the shortage of cultivating land and the unstable weather condition. Origin, an indoor farm concept, has been designed to tackle such condition by being able to produce vegetables and fruits and lessen the massive storage requirement for those. This compact and stylish capsule resembles a lot with our existing storage water purifier which can take seeds and substrates of the user’s preference as inputs and cultivate the particular item they want.
Designers : Arthur Kenzo and François Hurtaud

Hardcore gamers have far outrun the geeky glasses and suspenders image, and become a proud and powerful trend-starting group of consumers. Gamers have been known to display their love for new favorites through tattoos and gear, but for this generation brought up with a video game system in their home, nostalgic homages to old favorites have spread to murals and home decorations. Here are some of the highest scoring decorative video game homages:

Wall decorations can be classy and still have a video game flair. Pac Man has always been a favorite for decorating, most likely because of it’s both subtle when integrated into house decorations, but recognizable enough to grab any visitor’s attention. Don’t forget the old classic Donkey Kong, though, as this wacky shelf demonstrates it’s still living on in some gamer homes.

Old school games are easily replicated because of their characteristically pixellated shapes and blocky features. One common and effective tool to adding these video game staples to your community is to pick a brick wall and start filling in pixels! Tiles are also easily used to accomplish this task.

Full blown murals of modern and classic games are hard to come by, but they do exist, and they are awesome. If you’ve ever wanted to feel like you were in a game, sidle up to a side scroller and you become one of the characters, or visit Activision headquarters and check out their mural that showcases one of their racing games, “Blur”.

It’s hard not to be a fan of old school Mario, as his games clearly dominated the early video game wars. Since his debut in Donket Kong, Mario has been hopping his way from console to console, and now onto graffiti covered walls in urban centers. Any mario, even a spray-painted one, is fine in my book.

Video game homages don’t have to remain tagged on brick walls outside, they can be proudly displayed across bedroom walls. These home owners have added touches of video game flair that are far from hesitant, and make their living rooms a much more interesting place to hang out.

“This is the PEN Story in stop motion. We shot 60.000 pictures, developed 9.600 prints and shot over 1.800 pictures again. No post production! Thanks to all the stop motion artists who inspired us.
Some of the comments we have read here suggest that we should mention the creator of “A wolf loves pork”, Mr Taijin Takeuchi.
While we were looking for a way to realise a story describing “a journey through time” based on printed images, we were inspired by Mr Takeuchi’s brilliant work. For this reason we intentionally quoted his work in our little movie while showing full respect to his original idea.”
Thanks to Lloyda Valencia for showing me the video!!
