how about the oneonta o’reillys for the loofah league?
Toaster thinks the “Oneonta Olbermanns” has a nice ring to it. Now that Bwana has the big new contract with MSNBC maybe he’ll buy Toaster a baseball team. It’s important to keep Toaster busy. You know what they say: An idle toaster is the devil’s workplace.
Blue Velvet contributes:
This toaster looks like it just got out of bed. Friend of Mattress? Hard to use markers here!
Boy, he sure does look pretty sleepy. Toaster hopes the lumpy chrome doesn’t hurt.
From Olivier Gregoire.com, the designer’s Web site:
Hot paper:
Nowadays, the kitchen gets purity of lines and openable spaces. Dishes do not hide anymore!
Far from the industrial plastic toaster, I wanted to create something more unique by a contemporary approach of material. As for the design, I wanted something which disregarded the product itself by puting forward the visual impact. I used 2 white thermoformed patches of corian suggesting paper that would have been creased by heat. Their thin thickness shows a game of shadows and lights while underlining lines fold in a sensual way . This micro-architecture then becomes an ornamental element ; an image, a unique work…
Game of shadows? Isn’t that the Barry Bonds book?
“ … underlining lines fold in a sensual way …” This sounds like an R-rated toaster. Our Toaster is most definitely a G-rated little fellow.
