“SCANDINAVIAN”DESIGN

•Comparatively late industrialisation at the end of the nineteenth century, not eroding the craft skills base

•Strong tradition of craftsman’s Guilds.

•Close interaction between designer and craftsman to produce high quality products suitable for industrial production.

• Ellen Key (1849-1926) : “Beauty for all”, “when the beautiful is as cheap as the ugly, only then can beauty for all become a reality.’ —-> Linking beauty and moral good.

•1919 Gregor Paulsson: Vackrare Vardagsvara (“More Beautiful Things for Everyday Use”), ——> IKEA!

Before the 1950s:

•Viking age: Looking for better land

•Close to the sea

•Close proximity of the most dynamic nations of sixteenth-century Europe (UK, Netherlands, Germany)

•Turn of the century: High rate of literacy helps development and spread of technology

•Agriculture based until the 1950s, where it transitioned to industrial exports

DANISH DESIGN: IT ’S THE ECONOMY STUPID.

From 1950s to today:

• 5,5 million people

•No“Resource curse” and “Dutch disease”in Denmark

•1960s: welfare state (The worlds largest public sector (30% of the entire workforce on a full-time basis) is financed by the world's highest taxes.)

•Membership of unions in Denmark is very common, comprising around 80 percent of the work-force.

•industrial production/manufactured goods 73.3%

•3.1% of its gross domestic product from renewable (clean) energy technology and energy efficiency

•oil and natural gas in the North Sea developed in the 70s -80s , ranked 32th the world among net exporters of crude oil (Canada is 5th).

1. To express the purity, freshness, simplicity and ethics we wish to associate with our region. 2. To reflect the changing of the seasons in the meals we make. 3. To base our cooking on ingredients and produce whose characteristics are particularly excellent in our climates, landscapes and waters. 4. To combine the demand for good taste with modern knowledge of health and well-being. 5. To promote Nordic products and the variety of Nordic producers – and to spread the word about their underlying cultures. 6. To promote animal welfare and a sound production process in our seas, on our farmland and in the wild. 7. To develop potentially new applications of traditional Nordic food products. 8. To combine the best in Nordic cookery and culinary traditions with impulses from abroad. 9. To combine local self-sufficiency with regional sharing of high-quality products. 10. To join forces with consumer representatives, other cooking craftsmen, agriculture, the fishing, food , retail and wholesale industries, researchers, teachers, politicians and authorities on this project for the benefit and advantage of everyone in the Nordic countries.

This celebrated Virtual Reality experience puts the user inside Patrick Watson's private studio while he sits at his piano and sings his latest release. We collaborated

with filmmakers Felix & Paul after getting our hands on an early OR prototype to create the immersive VR experience. We devised the 360° Binaural Sound which

recreates the way the human ear hears sound.
