	                [i]WRITTEN ON THE WIND[/i]

A new collection of handmade clothes and accessories, by Hella Hernberg, pays homage to a legendary film by Douglas Sirk from 1956. 

Underlying the ideas and style of Written on the Wind, there are various influences and impressions of the cinema, with its nostalgia and dream realities, imaginary characters and their intertwining stories. Also the vintage fabrics used in the collection, bring in their own sense of storyline. The clothes, having been made by hand in small numbers, are all individual characters, with individual names. They are waiting for the user to step into the roles and continue the stories -- half real, half imagined.

Written on the Wind available at Lux Shop (Uudenmaankatu 26, Helsinki).

	                [i]BOL lampshade presented at Designpartners07[/i]

Bol lampshades are made by hand out of vintage fabrics. A simple structural idea is toned with a sense of old materials that creates stories and memories, and an atmospheric light. 

Each lampshade is identified by the details of different fabrics: curtains from the summerhouse, great-grandmother&#039;s embroidery, or old tablecloths saved from the attic. The character of each Bol therefore varies between pure and simple, fragile, graphic, dreamy, or sparkling. The use of vintage materials makes each piece not only unique but also environmentally friendly.

Handled with appropriate care, Bol is suitable for both home and public use. It comes in two sizes: Ø 38 cm and Ø 44 cm. Bol is currently available at Lux Shop (Uudenmaankatu 26, Helsinki). The lampshades can also be ordered custom made from the designer.

Option is a streamlined furniture concept for conference rooms. Fully upholstered, the stylish shape consists of parts that lend rhythm to the height of the backrest. The backrest can be adjusted to three heights. Urethane armrests provide a sculptural suppleness that contrasts with the strict businesslike appearance. The Option chair has several steel frame alternatives. Metalwork and detailing play key roles in the impressive frames of the Option tables.


Option on virtaviivainen kalustekonsepti neuvotteluympäristöön. Ympäriverhoillun tuoli yhtenäinen linjakas muoto koostuu osista, jotka ryhmittävät selkänojan korkeuden. Korkeusvaihtoehtoja on kolme. Tiukan asiallisuuden vastapainoksi suunnittelija on tuonut veistoksellista pehmeyttä uretaanista valmistetuilla käsinojilla. Option-tuolissa on useita teräsrunkovaihtoehtoja. Option-pöytien
näyttävissä ristikkojaloissa metallistyöstö ja yksityiskohdat ovat pääosassa.

Frame is literally a framed sofa system. It&#039;s clean-cut design and pure forms enhance the details and give a light look. Frame van be installed as an individual chair or as an endless sofa ensemble. Frame´s strong character articulates moderately as part of the surrounding architecture.


Frame on nimensä mukaisesti rungon kehystämä sohvajärjestelmä. Se on puhdaslinjainen kaluste, jossa rakenteen rehellinen muoto korostaa yksityiskohtia ja luo ilmavan kevyen ilmeen. Sen voi sijoittaa tilaan yksittäisenä lepotuolina tai rajattoman laajana sohvakokonaisuutena. Luonteeltaan voimakas Frame keskustelee hillitysti osana arkkitehtuuria.

         		<title>Tuulastuslyhty / Jahtilyysari / Spearfishing torch</title>
	         	<description>
	                <![CDATA[
	                Lyhty

Tuulastukseen käytettiin 1700-luvulla palavaa tervasta, jota poltettiin tuulaskourassa. Koura korvattiin myöhemmin öljylyhdyllä ja viimeisten vuosikymmenien aikana sähköisellä keinovalolla. Nykyään myös infrapunakiikareilla on omat käyttäjänsä, mutta vasta Jahtiseuran lyhty voidaan hyväksyä oikeana innovaationa.

Jahtiseuran kehittämä lyhty on osoitus huippumodernin teknologian astumisesta 
historialliseen kuvaan. 13 LEDin valo päihittää aikaisemmat lyhdyt valotehollaan ja suunnattavuudellaan. Se valaisee saaliin ja ympäröivän luonnon luonnollisena ja LED-lyhty on asennettavissa kaikkiin markkinoilla oleviin venemalleihin. Jahtiseuran LED-lyhty siirtää tuulastuksen uudelle vuosisadalle.


Tuulastaminen

Kaksi ihmistä, järvi, pimeys, vene, atrain ja lyhty. Nämä ovat tuulastuksen elementit.

Tuulastaminen on tunnetuista kalastusmuodoistamme kenties jaloin. Tämä 
historiallinen kalastusmuoto on säilynyt vuosisatoja lähes muuttumattomana ja 
välineetkin noudattavat perinteistä linjaa. Lajin hienous ei piile saaliin määrässä, vaan nyt mitataan kalastajan todelliset taidot: nopeus, tarkkuus, oveluus ja äärimmäinen rauhallisuus.

Tuulastus on tarkkuutta vaativa yölaji. Kellon kiertyessä yöhön ja auringon laskiessa horisonttiin lähtevät miehet hämärään. He hakevat vajasta välineensä, nousevat veneeseen, sytyttävät valon ja aloittavat jahdin. 

Vene lipuu hitaasti ja äänettömästi matalikossa toisen miehen huovatessa, 
toisen väijyessä saalista veneen perässä. Vain hiljalleen siirtyvä valopiste kertoo äärimmäisestä jännityksestä rannan tuntumassa. Soutaja aistii atrainmiehen eleistä ja asennoista milloin vene kulkee oikeaa vauhtia oikeaan paikkaan. Pimeydessä ei kuulu mitään ääniä kunnes saalistaja näkee saaliin. Vähävetinen ranta on ihanteellinen paikka hauelle yöpymiseen. Järviemme peto tuntuu leijuvan paikallaan ja nukkuvan. 

Atrain iskeytyy salamannopeasti veteen. Kala ei ehdi reagoimaan miehen iskuun, vaan peto muuttuu saaliiksi. Atraimen isku on niin luja, että kohde kuolee välittömästi.

Yön ensimmäinen kala tuntuu hienoimmalta, mutta saalistus jatkuu. Saalistajan on nopeasti saatava adrenaliinitaso palautumaan ja saavutettava rauhallinen 
sekä tarkkaavainen mielentila uutta iskua varten.

Tuulastaminen on hieno ja jalo taitomiesten kalastusmuoto. Tappavaa taidetta, jossa korostuvat miehen luonteenpiirteet ja lujaotteisuus palkitaan.
