"Free Your Skin" Advertising Campaign for Schick


Beards have been trendy for a while nowю But like with every fashion, it comes and it goes. So it’s good timing for razor company Schick to launch a “Free Your Skin” campaign. Advertising agency Y&R New Zealand has created a humorous ad campaign that features men who have unfortunate animal beards. It carries the message that men need to shave their facial hair before it turns into an animal, and the Schick brand can “Free Your Skin”. Photographs for the ads are taken by Troy Goodall and Stephen Stewart, and are retouched by Electric Art.


happy christmas!

Bee’ah’s Sharjah Headquarters by Zaha Hadid Architects

After the 2013 international competition, Bee’ah has finally commissioned Zaha Hadid Architects to build the new Bee’ah’s Sharjah Headquarters that will rise in the Emirati desert. This Middle East’s leading fully integrated environmental and waste management company has invested in many infrastructures to transform attitudes and behaviors in individual, communities, business, and cities in order to achieve their environmental goals, and this project is one of them.


The new headquarters is hoped to enable this company to manage and deliver further advancements in environmental services such as better and greater operational of Waste Management Center, Material Recovery Facility, Construction & Demolition Waste Recycling Facility, Tyre Recycling Facility that uses eco-friendly cryogenic processes, Compost Plant, and other recycling and material processing facilities.

Since this building will be standing in the desert, the design should respond to its natural environment, providing ultimate comfort for visitors and staff while minimizing the consumption of energy and resource. The intersecting dunes are optimized to overcome Shamal winds, the interiors utilize high quality daylight and views while limiting the quantity of glazing exposed to the harsh sun. The 2 primary dunes are used for public & management section from entrance lobby, auditorium, education center, gallery, and management offices, also the administrative section. These two dunes intersect and are connected through a central courtyard that forms an oasis inside the building, optimizing natural ventilation and maximizing indirect sunlight for spaces within.

Teamed up with Atelier Ten, the building system has been developed to minimize energy required for cooling and water consumption. During milder months, the façade is operable to allow natural ventilation but when conditioning is required, it’ll be optimized for energy conservation through the use of ventilation energy recovery. Any waste heat would be rejected from the chiller into atmosphere where it can be harvested for free pre-heating of domestic hot water supplies. Individual elements of this building structure and skin are standard orthogonal dimensions, giving significant portions to be constructed using materials recovered from local construction and demolition waste streams, minimizing the use for new materials. Bee’ah’s Sharjah Headquarters will be constructed using the same principles which are the foundation of the company’s mission in order to be integrated with its environment and better waste management services.

Electric Kettle Design by Iain McLean

Stylish electric water kettle has been designed to do everything a standard kettle will do, but also make the job of boiling a single cup of water extremely easy, quick and inexpensive. The innovative and patented lid system can be flipped out of the way like normal for large volume fills, or filled directly with one cup of water. On placement of the kettle on the base a siphon within the lid then transfers the water into to the main vessel.


The design recognizes that most energy wastage comes from overfilling the kettle, and the key to avoiding this is to make it super easy for the user to fill with the right quantity, avoiding the overfill. People do not intentionally create waste, and will do the efficient thing as long as it is also the convenient thing. This kettle allows the user to fill the easy-to-see lid vessel through a large, permanently open, aperture and at an ergonomic angle. No more than placement on the base is then required to ensure that the lid empties into the heating chamber.

The kettle integrates the operation of the siphon into the typical operations of the user when filling the kettle, so there are no new skills to learn.


This particular design takes its lead from art deco of cruise ships from the 30’s, the spout jutting outwards and upwards with a chromed rail running around the top. Porthole styled water windows allow the user to gauge the water level within the kettle.
