Revolution Stoves: Curve, Menta, and Skin by Jerome Olivet
The collection of pellet stoves designed for the company Bodart and Gonay comes in 3 versions: Curve, Menta and Skin. Each design magnifies the art of fire by creating design in three dimensions with gentle curves and lights that run on their metallic skin. By the playing the shapes and colors, Jerome Olivet merges technology with architecture.
Curve Stove: Techno curved belt wraps around a black monolith.
Menta Stove: An 3D oval unifies the flame to this new technology.
Skin Stove: Levitation appears by the vertical circulation and these bright curve.

Insects That Are Very Freaky (27 pics)
Botflies: These bugs kind of resemble a little bumblebee, but they are far more horrifying. Their larvae are parasitic, injected into unsuspecting hosts by infected misquitos. They burrow under an animals skin or yours until they painfully crawl out.
Japanese Giant Hornets: These suckers can grow to be 2 inches long and their stingers can be a quarter-inch long. Not only are they GIANT, but they are extremely aggressive and fearless.
Africanized Honey Bee: These are killer bees. Their ancestors were European honey bees crossed with African honey bees. Theyre aggressive and extremely protective of their hives. Being swarmed by these bees can kill you, or result in so many stings your organs shut down.
Bullet Ants: Found in rainforests throughout Central America, their bite is so painful, youll feel like youve been shot. Plus, the pain lasts for 24 hours. An indigenous Brazilian tribe use gloves filled with these ants as a painful initiation ceremony.
Assassin Bugs: There are different species of these bugs they attack their prey quickly and violently. They kill other insects by stabbing them with their sharp beaks and then inject enzymes into the prey. The enzymes soften the insides, allowing them to slurp it out.
Jewel Wasps: This parasitoid wasp use cockroaches as a live food supply for its developing larvae. It attacks the cockroach, paralyzing it. Then, it injects venom into the roachs head, preventing it from trying to walk. The wasp then turns it into a zombie nursery, by laying its eggs into its abdomen. Yikes
Cicadas: These tree crickets live underground and then, as they mature, make their way to the surface. They can produce sounds up to 120 decibels louder than a concert. They hang out in, and die in, extremely large numbersswarms
Stink Bugs: They may not bother humans they prefer vegetation, but they will make you smell if you bother them too much. Even if you smash one, youll be plagued by his or her stink
Saddleback Caterpillars: Although they are cute they have their own little saddles!, these bright bugs are venomous. Contact with their hairs causes a painful, swollen rash and sometimes nausea. The sting can feel like an electric shock.
Cockroaches: These guys are extremely common and can carry 33 types of bacteria, 6 kinds of parasites and 7 pathogens. They can go 45 minutes without breathing, live a month without food and they will eat hair, toenails, eyelashes and eyebrows.
Japanese Mountain Leeches: Youd think most leeches live in water, but this one can hunt you on land. They are typically slow, but can somersault after any prey pretty quickly, or drop down from trees. They can chew through your clothing and the numbing agent they can inject you with will ensure you dont feel them sucking on your blood.
House Centipedes: Thats right, as in, YOUR HOUSE. They are harmless, but you can find them underneath cabinets, in closets and basically everywhere you wouldnt want to find a disgusting centipede.
Giant Centipedes: These awful creatures can grow to be up to 15 inches long. Even better? Its also poisonous. It cant kill you, but you will need to go to the doctor. The solution is to just avoid these nightmares entirely.
Huntsman Spiders: These spiders are big. And, depending on where you live in the world, you can find them in your own home. It doesnt use a web to catch its prey, itll actually use its unreasonably huge legs to chase down its food. Thankfully, its not poisonous.
Joro Spiders: Unfortunately, this scary spider is poisonous. Its bite is similar to that of a black widow spider. They are so awful, they have existed in Japanese folklore as evil seducing demons.
Giant Wetas: Found in New Zealand, this oversized bug is one of the largest and heaviest in the world. They typically dont bother humans, aside from haunting our dreams.
Giant Orb-Weaving Spiders: This family of spiders is particularly terrifying. Many are poisonous and some are SO BIG, they can hunt and kill a snake for a snack.
Or a bird. There is no reason why you should go near one if you see it in the wild. You should, in fact, run.
Giant Katydids: Although these bugs can make you cringe in every way possible, the hamster-sized katydids arent harmful to humans. You can even keep them as pets if youre brave like that. Theyre more active at night and create songs, like crickets do.
Dobsonflies: Both males and females can grow to be up to 5 inches long. The males mandibles are actually so big, they are unable to harm humans. The females, however, can bite you and even draw blood. Adults can generally be found from late spring into the middle of summer, remaining near bodies of water. Where you will be on vacation
Titan Beetles: These giant bugs can be around 7 inches long and their pincers can snap a pencil in half but they usually leave humans alone. If you bother it, though, it will attack you. The worlds largest beetle WILL attack you
Brahmin Caterpillar: You dont think living nightmares exist? Well, youre WRONG. These caterpillars look like a creation of Tim Burton, like tiny terrors, but they cant harm you.
Youd think that their appearance is for camouflaging purposes, but they may just want to make sure you never sleep soundly again.
Puss Caterpillars: It may look cute, but this fuzzball is actually quite venemous. They are high in protein and slow moving, so they needed a defense mechanism: serious toxins. Do. Not. Pet. Them
If you do touch one: You will experience intense throbbing pain develops within five minutes of contact, with pain extending up the affected arm. Other symptoms may include headaches, nausea, vomiting, intense abdominal distress, lymphadenopathy, lymphadenitis, and sometimes shock or respiratory stress.
Giant Silkworm Moth Caterpillars: This terrifying caterpillar is actually responsible for several deaths a year. The tiny, fragile hairs it is covered with are full of potent toxins. Grangrene-like symptoms and internal hemorrhaging can occur as a result of this sting.
Giant Isopods: This isnt from a science fiction movie. These giant isopods, although technically a crustacean, are still terrifying. They live in the oceans but that doesnt mean youre safe.
Japanese Giant Hornets: These suckers can grow to be 2 inches long and their stingers can be a quarter-inch long. Not only are they GIANT, but they are extremely aggressive and fearless.
Africanized Honey Bee: These are killer bees. Their ancestors were European honey bees crossed with African honey bees. Theyre aggressive and extremely protective of their hives. Being swarmed by these bees can kill you, or result in so many stings your organs shut down.

Raceline 26-foot Powerboat by Pietro Russomanno
Pietro Russomanno has submitted his latest design, Raceline. It’s an elegant 26-foot boat that features wooden surface.
Raceline is a 26-foot concept powerboat where the design resembles a car type configuration, with four independent seats in a race boat layout.
The juxtaposition of classic materials and aggressive lines reveal racing characteristics of the boat. All details of prestige and a graceful treatment of surfaces, combined with cutting edge performances, make Raceline an authentic Granturismo of the sea. Moreover, the compact size and easy access through the open top, allow it to be even an efficient tender for gigayacht. The length overall is 26′ and the maximum beam is 9′. Estimated displacement is around 2 tons and maximum speed over 70 miles per hour.

House in Kings Cross by BORTOLOTTO
Toronto architecture firm BORTOLOTTO designed a contemporary home in King City, Canada.
Project description
Just north of Toronto, Kings Cross is an idyllic rural community with rolling streets with architecturally distinct houses dating back to the 1960s. This new house sits low amid lush greenery, occupying the footprint of a previous house, but replacing it with a building whose style is thoroughly modern in both design and performance. Bold and direct, the house takes design cues from the unusual typography of the area and from the ranch style mansard roofs of some of the neighbouring houses. Dramatically horizontal and filled with light, and at the same time protective and sheltering, it eschews all kinds of popular and mass-produced contemporary design features. What is remarkable about this house is that nothing is ordinary – its materials, form, and systems create both a house and an environmental artwork.
The distinctive facades of the imaginative form poetically and functionally respond to the scenery in the front and back. Stepped landscaping naturally connects the driveway to the bold sloping front façade and creates a gentle transition between the home and the 2.3-acre property. In contrast to the privacy provided by the front façade, the glazed and undulating rear façade opens the home to a mature forest. The lower level takes advantage of the sloped yard to provide a direct walkout to the ravine.
The sinuous curve of the glass wall establishes the sculptural language of the interior. Rather than conceiving of the house in straightforward planes, split-levels naturally expand and contract creating movement and intimacy. The soaring ceiling of the ‘Great Room’ gracefully sweeps down to carve out the second floor that holds the bedrooms; this gentle curve is reiterated as the floor spills into the kitchen. This playful scooping and carving creates an internal landscape that parallels the rolling hills of the spectacular ravine, visible from each light-filled room in the house.
The materials, chosen for their natural properties and ability to endure the regional climate, reinforce the ethereal quality of the home. The front façade is clad in triple layered slate supported by stainless steel clips (system to last 100 years), complimented by wood framed windows. The unblemished white interiors create fields to catch light. Marble, stone, glass and wood finishes add warmth and provide a neutral stage from which to view the changing seasonal colours.
By situating the new house on the footprint of its predecessor, the design minimized the disturbance of the surrounding landscape. Orienting 7.61 RSI insulation on the north and west façades and roof and operable glazing on the south and east facades maximizes natural daylight, passive heating, cooling and ventilation. Radiant flooring, ground source heating and photovoltaic technologies further reduce dependency on non-renewable energy. VOC free materials ensure high indoor air quality. The house has a remarkable Energy Efficiency Rating of 80, achieving an Energy Star rating and surpassing the R2000 requirements.
The undulating curves and lightness of this unique home shape sight-lines with great care, while also quietly breaking from conventional residential design. The result demonstrates how the art of building can give us new ways of seeing and experiencing.
