Can good design save the newspaper?

It just might.

Just like the title says, now you have a way to look cool while cooking, even if you don't really know what you're doing.

 

 

Each Steltonn Pure Black knife, is made of a single steel piece and coated in a special matte black material. They're not yet available in the market and there's not a set price for the pack (that includes two chef and a bread knife). But one thing is certain, these knifes will be a part of many oool kitchens around the world.

A year ago I saw, at the Louisiana Museum of Modern Art, in Copenhagen, an exhibition about the city of the future.

 

Guess what: it is being built in Abu Dhabi! 

 

As being part of the Portuguese entourage that is at Abu Dhabi with the Portuguese Prime Minister, for the opening of the World Future Energy Summit, I was amazed with the info on Masdar City, the project that I saw a year ago as something that would only happen in a long time.

 

They are in an advanced stage of the project, and I can't wait to visit it.

 

The project is really incredible, and is a part of the local strategy for facing the energy problems that we all know about.
