Design in motion

Performance Design

FRONT, the Swedish design group has developed a new technology from Japan that translates motion into product.  Pen strokes are recorded onto 3D files and actualized through the process of rapid photography… WHAT!!!

I saw a demonstration of this process at the MOMA design show in New York in April.  It took me a while to figure out what was going on.  Designers can draw anything they want and create an actual 3D prorotype.

These designers are drawing their products that will become solid 3D objects like the chair below.

In the future, I wonder if we can apply this technology to the oven and have it make a 3D dinner?  Now that would be awsome!
