Humidifiers = big, ugly, noisy, cesspool of bacteria, right?.
Not anymore!
Designed by Shin Okada, Mast is a minimalist wood based humidifier that requires no electricity nor a fan… just capillary action.
Crafted by Masuya Koubou out of Japanese cypress > “Known for its high-quality timber, rot-resistant qualities and lemony scent, the thinly sliced Hinoki mast absorbs water from the hull and diffuses it, and its intrinsic aroma, into the room.”

Powers Of Ten from VILLA on Vimeo.

Powers of Ten is a 1968 short documentary film written and directed by Charles Eames and Ray Eames. The film depicts the relative scale of the Universe in factors of ten (see also logarithmic scale and order of magnitude). The film is an adaptation of the 1957 book Cosmic View by Kees Boeke, and more recently is the basis of a new book version. Both adaptations, film and book, follow the form of the Boeke original, adding color and photography to the black and white drawings employed by Boeke in his seminal work.

Where else but in the Netherlands can a power plant become a landscape sculpture.
To increase the capacity of two existing power stations on the Uithof in Utrecht, a new building (6000m3) appeared. The size and construction of the building are largely determined by the technical requirements. A skin of self-supporting Cor-ten steel is folded over the machinery and the giant filters and dampers and keeps the noise pollution to a minimum. Its silhouette differs according to one’s perspective, lending the building a sculptural force in the landscape.
