  • 5 Kooky Koozie Designs  By : Gabriel Adams -
    Koozies are sheaths designed to insulate a can or stubby bottle. The insulation helps keep the cold beverage from warming due to body heat or ambient temperature.

  • A Blank Canvas: A Brief Consideration Of Modern Design  By : dave (Author)
    Modern Design was born at the turn of the 20th century. But as design does, this movement acquired from its predecessors, namely the Bauhaus and International styles. Bauhaus was an architectural school founded in 1918. The faculty and students of the school would develop a style of architecture that favored simplicity and the integration of technology. International Style became the term used once the ideas of the Bauhaus began to catch on around the world. Swiss architect, Le Corbusier and his idea of an open interior became the basis of International and eventually Modern design.

    The philosophy of why the modern style was originated is open to a debate that will never be resolved. The advancements of the Industrial Revolution in mid 19th century brought about innovations in technology and new building materials. Sleek and clean lines were easily presented with the glass, steel, and concrete that became highly available through the mass production of the 20th century. Some insist on the direct correlation with the eclectic art movements of the time, Expressionism, Fauvism, and so on. The idea of progress and the socio-political revolutions of the early 20th century were surely making an impact as well. Whatever the foundation of this Modern movement, we know that it was a time of inspiration and change, remarkable enough to endure through to the present.

  • Abstract Art  By : Jonathon Hardcastle -
    Nonrepresentational or nonobjective art is not an invention of the twentieth century. A number of cultures, like the Islamic and Jewish, have developed over the centuries a high standard of decorative or non-figurative art forms. Today, abstract art is generally understood to be the form of art that does not depict objects in the natural world, but instead uses shapes and colors in a nonrepresentational or subjective way.

    According to art experts, in its purest form in Western art, an abstract art is one without a recognizable subject, one which does not relate to something external. This type of ornamental art, without figurative representation occurs today in many cultures. As the modern abstract movement in sculpture and paining emerged in Europe and North America between 1910 and 1920, two approaches have been generally accepted to produce different abstract styles: images that have been "abstracted" from nature to the point where they no longer reflect a conventional reality, and nonobjective, or "pure" art forms, which do not share any reference to reality. A further distinction tends to be made between abstract art which is geometric, such as the work of Piet Mondrian, and abstract art that is more fluid, such as in the works of Wassily Kandinsky. It was Kandinsky who once said that "of all arts, abstract painting is the most difficult. It demands that you know to draw well, that you have a heightened sensitivity for composition and of colors, and that you are a true poet; this last is essential."

  • Audio Book Stores Online  By : Andy West
    One of the best ways to take in a book and enjoy it virtually anywhere is through the exciting medium of audio books. The audio book stores that usually come to mind when one thinks of purchasing an audio book are the big chain book stores. For years people would have to find audio book stores in shopping centers and shopping malls. Typically these stores were paperback bookstores with a small audio book section. As the popularity of audio books increased, so did the availability. More and more publishers are putting audio books out onto the market as a way to attract new buyers, and provide yet another way for one to enjoy a book. For the past five or six years’ audio book stores online have provided users with a unique outlet to shop for their favorite audio books.

    Many audio book stores online offer visitors a fresh selection of audio books to choose from. In fact, most of these online stores offer the same new releases as the paperback, and hardcopy bookstores do, at the same time of release. Therefore, for those that are better listeners than they are readers, most every new major release title is available in audio book right away. The format of online audio book stores tends to differ per store. Some stores go with a mail order system that lets users purchase the right to rent out the audio book, like you would a video or book from a library, and return it via mail when you are finished. Another popular format for audio book stores online is the digital download format. This format is for those that want to collect audio books, or just enjoy the ease of having the ability to download the audio book whenever they want to listen to it.
