Weightlessness in Nature by Cornelia Konrads

Cornelia’s outdoor installations seem to give Mother Nature the finger with their brazen defiance of gravity. Suspended in time, her works often seem to be in caught in the middle of construction themselves, an act we were never supposed to witness.

I just think that these pieces are amazing and nothing like I have seen before. the mix of the natural elements and the carefully designed and thought out structure is amazing. On some of these images I think it is a shame you can see the wires but I don’t think it really takes away from the actually images and structures themselves.

I just love this. The subtly work the faded words and the composition all just works brilliantly. Just plain and simple but with a bit of a twist and some humor.

Brilliant package design by Pedrita, alongside Água de Luso.

“The bottle’s 17 faces – five square and 12 identical hexagonal faces – allow for an endless number of bottles to be regularly grouped together in several configurations that suppress empty space between them. Each of these three-dimensional space-filling modules significantly optimizes the processes of storage and transportation, reduces the amount of material used in the bottle and creates a greater impact in the final product’s display.”

Just a really cool packaging idea which has a good concept behind it in terms of stacking which also looks really interesting.
