...mission as devoutly and who has served it as ably. In just the past six years, Ed has been instrumental in changing our publication date to Friday, in igniting TIME International's explosive growth, in developing TIME.com into a must-read destination and in launching Time's Style & Design luxury supplement. More than all of that, Ed was a vocal champion of the great journalism that we do every week in the magazine and every day on TIME.com We will miss his good humor and fierce loyalty, but his impact will live on in what we do every...
Apple specializes in mini-malist design that simply works better. Each MacBook, for instance, is carved out of a single block of aluminum, and this unibody construction creates a stronger, lighter chassis that looks like a work...
...always dominated by warm colors (think camel, winter white), so this season's abundance of purple--and a chilly blue one at that--is "very unusual," says Leatrice Eiseman, psychologist and executive director of the Pantone Color Institute. The New Jersey--based company, which provides universal color standards for design industries and manufacturers worldwide, predicted two years ago that purple would be everywhere this fall. Eiseman sees the hybrid color as a reflection of "discontent and desire for change," a quarrel between cool blue (peace, hope) and warm red (passion, anger, turmoil...
...most complicated colors. It traces its roots back to kings and cardinals, in the days when thousands of mollusks had to be crushed to make a single drop of purple dye, a process only those with servants could afford. Douglas Lloyd of Lloyd & Co., the New York City design firm that recently created a violet-hued ad campaign for Estée Lauder's fragrance Sensuous, says he chose the color for its "royal connotations, a richness that conjures the idea of religion and incense." But, he says, "at the end of the day, it's just a great, poppy color...
...Wood is now developing an apparatus that would simultaneously measure the forces, as well as the aero-elastic properties, generated by the motion of the robotic fly. By running the tests with different types of wings and different trajectories, Wood hopes to correlate the movements and forces with the design space. “Our goals are to uncover patterns in the design space which lead to a particular performance and come up with simplified models of the fluid mechanics interactions, and to come up with design rules,” Wood said. Wood’s research...
