If you can’t own a great jewel, design it. It can be a great satisfaction, explains Inesa Kovalova. However, in addition to drawing them with delicate brushes and tempera colors, she creates real jewels. The Ukrainian designer Inesa Kivalova alternates the production of jewels with an innovative shape and made with equally tech methods, with teaching.

She graduated in architecture, she followed a learning path at Central St. Martins in London and at the Creative Academy, the private design school of the Richemont group in Milan. There she worked on real projects for Richemont brands such as Van Cleef and Arpels, Vacheron Constantine, Roger Dubuis and others, followed by an internship in the design department of Van Cleef and Arpels in Paris.

Since 2016 Inesa has been teaching all over the world. For her masterclasses she has collaborated with various art and design institutions, including the Victoria and Albert Museum in London, or for the Antwerp World Diamond Centre. In addition, she offers online jewelry design courses. Her jewels are full of personality: they have a geometric, modern design, created thanks to the use of 3D printing. Like the titanium brooch, with beryl and diamonds that she wears herself.

The 10 fundamental steps in the history of jewelry that you need to know. The first is… ♦ ︎
Long ago the Financial Times published an article which identified the 10 milestones of jewelery over the past two hundred years or so. The article starts from innovation in diamond cutting, with the introduction of fashion to bright, up to 3D printing. It is interesting the analysis, to don’t forget the history of the jewel.
1 Brilliant Cut
Round or brilliant cut diamonds were introduced at the end of the 17th century, after the brilliance of the stones had become predominant in Baroque jewelry. The brilliant cut developed in the laboratories of Paris, Amsterdam and Antwerp, which produced the precursor of the contemporary cut, which today is the one chosen for 75 percent of the diamonds.

2 Electroplating
How do you make gold if you have not? Nothing philosopher’s stone: since 1840 gold and silver are applied using an electrolytic process, which has become a pillar of the production of affordable jewelry. It was the goal of a Birmingham surgeon, John Wright, who developed galvanic baths with potassium cyanide. Wright and his partners George and Henry Elkington, patented electroplating process, allowing you to apply a thin film of gold or silver on a regular jewel of other material , such as steel.

3 Tiffany setting
In 1886 Tiffany invented the most popular ring among women: it elevates the diamond above the ring rim by four or six prongs, instead of being set in the metal. In this way the diamond is seen much more. Since then, the solitaire ring remains alone for a very short time: everyone wants it. Before Tiffany, diamond ring settings were much lower on the finger—the stones were usually set in a gold band or held with shorter prongs, so the stones had a low profile. The Tiffany setting enhances the diamond.

4 Platinum
At the end of the 19th century, the use of platinum spread, a metal that is more difficult to work with, but much more resistant than gold. Thanks to the new platinum treatment techniques, Cartier can create a refined jewel like the tiara with a garland design. Platinum has a remarkable resistance to corrosion, and does not deform even at high temperatures: it is considered a noble metal which ensures a long life to the jewel.

5 Cultured pearls
Until the early twentieth century pearls were very rare, because only those produced naturally by oysters could be found. From the Akoya variety, Kokichi Mikimoto has instead managed to obtain man-induced pearls. But it is also thanks to his wife. On July 11, 1893, Mikimoto’s wife examined a basket of freshly caught oysters and saw the first hemispherical cultured pearl as beautiful as a natural pearl. Three years later, in 1896, Mikimoto obtained his first patent for cultured pearls.

6 Clip Earrings
In the thirties have spread earrings held by a small spring, as the use of the reaction in the ear hole, considered barbarous (it seems that it is no longer the case now). Clip-on earrings can be worn by everyone, while pierced earrings are reserved for those with pierced ears. In the 1970s, however, pierced ears came back into fashion, and not only that.

7 Serti Mystérieux
It is an innovation of Van Cleef & Arpels: it use the technique to placed stones on the jewel without showing claws or other devices to immobilize the individual elements. Thin and invisible rails lead the stone into the desired position. Needless to add that it is not a simple task, though it has since been imitated by many other Maison.

8 Titanium
In the early sixties he comes in titanium. Even in this case is the technology that has allowed the most innovative jewelers like Jar of work this lightweight and durable metal, which allows you to make jewelry with bold shapes, impossible with more traditional alloys such as those with gold and silver.

9 3D Design
For the uninitiated, despite the films of the major brands continue to show artists with pen and colors and draw their own collections, the vast majority of jewelry is designed to the computer. This is due to the introduction, in the eighties, of 3D design, with a software called Cad. It’s a less poetic system of colored pencils, but much more efficient.

10 3D Print
For some years the border is 3D printing. Most initially it was made of plastic, but now you can also use the metal. After designing the jewelry, the path leads to the realization through special printers that instead of churning out the vacation photos, build by subtraction (ie carve the excess material), or by aggregation (adding gold dust or silver, kneaded) for rings, necklaces or bracelets.

Who said that in the world of jewelry there is no room for invention? Perhaps thanks to technology, if combined with a good dose of creativity. An example of this is Yael Kaduri, a 3D jewelry designer who boasts a very personal path halfway between art and goldsmithing. Although, in truth, her focus is not centered on precious materials, but on the possibilities that 3D printing offers when combined with traditional craftsmanship. Yael also teaches at the Bezalel Academy of Arts & Design in Jerusalem, holds degrees in jewelry and fashion, and teaches as an assistant professor at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem. In short, an eclectic creativity, also testified by the passion for the connection between music and visual arts.

Jewels are a world apart. According to the Yael, jewels combine concentration, accuracy, enigmatic essence and delicacy with communication and body awareness. “The main sources of my inspiration are the natural worlds and aesthetic ideals of traditional Japanese craftsmanship,” she adds. Yael Kaduri’s work is focused, according to her description, on product development in an attempt to come up with some new craft skills to design jewelery using 3D printed polymers, combined with cast metal and traditional goldsmithing. A hybrid object, which she calls digital precious. But even more precious are her innovative ideas.

Varily’s 3D jewels

Published on October 7, 2022

Printing jewels in 3D, obviously with a special device capable of building three-dimensional objects, has been the dream of many designers for some years. This is why some have taken this path, such as Valeria D’Annibale, who has always been fascinated by new technologies, but also by jewelry. The result is called Varily, a brand that offers bijoux made of nylon. A material that is not precious, of course, but which offers creativity as an added value. So much so that the designer chose this material after starting to work silver, enthused by the ductility offered by the resistance and flexibility.

Before launching on the market with her own brand, Valeria D ‘Annibale studied Jewelery and Object Design in Sydney, Australia, where she met and married her husband. Then, the couple moved to Holland where, together with two twins, Varily’s business was also born, in an environment conducive to Nordic minimalist design. And to 3D printing.

Create your gold ring with 3D

Published on October 4, 2022

news

The Internet offers many possibilities: for example, to design and make jewelry in silver, gold, bronze or titanium in 3D ♦

If you have ever dreamed of creating a gold, silver or bronze ring, know that now it is possible, without leaving home. All you need is a computer and an internet connection. The idea comes from Jweel, a start-up that has launched its first website dedicated to the creation and printing of 3D jewelry. They are jewelry made of metal, not plastic. They can be gold, silver, brass, titanium or steel. You can create a ring with a design of your choice, even a fantasy one, with a personalization. Maybe linked to the date of a birthday, a name, an anniversary.

Or you can choose and modify one of the many models proposed (there are dozens). But you can also look at and choose the creations of other users of the site. With the web browser you can design the jewel in 3D in a very simple way. You choose the look and the material, then you order. Skimlab proposes the creation of jewels online and 3D printing through the Jweel website. Furthermore, Skimlab can directly print the steel jewels or prepare a mold for your trusted goldsmith’s shop. It really is that easy.

The hi-tech gold of Nuovi Gioielli

In 1985, in Mussolente, a small town in the province of Vicenza, Ivano Torresan and Giovanni Berton founded Nuovi Gioielli. It is a goldsmith company that produces high quality jewelry also for third parties. And that aims to use technology to get the best out of it. Of course, the image of the craftsman who creates an elaborate jewel on his own remains fascinating. But if a month of work is needed to obtain a jewel, that piece will also be unique in cost. Nuovi Gioielli has sought an intermediate way: to maintain quality by adopting new production systems.

Gold, colored stones and diamonds are used with the same imagination as a DIY jeweler, but made with innovative tools. An example? Laser Metal Fusion, that is metal 3D printing, which according to Nuovi Gioielli has the greatest potential for development and growth. The device is based on a high intensity laser, which selectively melts the metal powders according to a path defined by the Cad design and creates three-dimensional metal objects, from steel to bronze, or gold and platinum. Technology like this joins other more traditional ones or always with advanced systems, such as numerical control machines, which allow you to produce perfect jewels, without errors during the realization phase.

In Vienna the 3D jewels of Boltenstern

Published on August 12, 2022

bracciale/Showroom/COLLANE

Is 3D printing really the future of jewelry? There are those who, like the historic Viennese Maison Boltenstern, think so. And it is not a new jewelry start-up: the company takes its name from Sven Boltenstern, goldsmith and sculptor of the sixties and seventies. But it is his daughter Marie who founded the jewelry company. And, alongside traditional jewelery, in 18-karat gold (we have already talked about it here), it has also introduced jewelery made with the most modern 3D printers.

The line of jewelry produced in this way is called Fabnora and includes necklaces, earrings and bracelets, such as those inspired by the Amalfi Coast. How come this choice? According to Boltenstern, 3D printing is more sustainable, as it reduces waste by using only the necessary material and keeping excess waste to an absolute minimum. Each jewel is however designed and coded by a designer and then applied with a complex algorithm that can take months and even years to develop. Furthermore, a unique case in the world of jewelry, Boltenstern jewels are printed directly by applying a fine metal powder, layer by layer, to use recycled yellow gold, 18-carat rose or silver. But the metal is used only for a small part of the jewel, the rest is colored polyamide and fixed to a handmade pin in silver or gold, yellow or pink plated. An advantage is that despite the size, the earrings are very light and can be worn for a long time.

In the jewelery every so often overlook new ideas, both as regards the materials, which for the techniques adopted. Today we don’t produce more jewels as they did a century ago, and probably about in one hundred years’ time rings, bracelets and necklaces will be made with still different systems. So do not be surprised to experiments like that of Nervous System, a design studio based in Massachusetts, who has decided to use the new 3D printing technologies and laser cutting with biology. The result is Corollaria collection. It is a set of jewelry that is not noted for its precious workmanship, but because it provides an idea of what could be a part of the future jewelry.

The shape of these jewelry is inspired by the microscopic cellular structures, reconstructed through the use of a special algorithm. The materials used are brass and a special plastic. The jewelry then have a shape that resembles that of a lace, the cells that form in the human body and biological system. You unromantic? Maybe. But these jewels have an advantage in terms of who sells them: are printed to order, so there are not likely to remain in the drawer. And then, perhaps, they can are loved by Millenials.

Valeria D’Annibale, hi-tech designer but without giving up the personal touch with her Varily Jewelry ♦

From Rome (Italy) to Sidney (Australia) to design and produce bijoux with 3D printer technology. Valeria D’Annibale studied Jewelery and Object Design at the Enmore Design Center and goldsmithing in Italy: the synthesis of her work is the computer creation of earrings, rings, necklaces, bracelets and then translating them into objects with the use of nylon powder through a special printer. Varily Jewelry’s hi-tech jewels are sold directly online on her site.

There is also a phase two, because the objects are then finished by hand. In short, an activity between technology and craftsmanship, so much so that Valeria D’Annibale was long ago invited to participate in the Make Fair, an event dedicated to the world of new digital artisans that takes place in Rome. She, who explained that she had a passion for jewelry since she was a child, created her own jewelry brand in 2015. Hers is a very personal way, a bridge between hi-tech and tradition: in addition to 3D printing, in fact, he also uses silver and steel, before concluding the processing of the pieces by adding textures and finishes to make each piece something different.

High jewelry designed also thanks to 3D printers: it is Jaubalet’s idea to create custom necklaces, rings or bracelets ♦ ︎

London, 1 Berkeley Street, but also Place Vendôme, Paris, the home of luxury jewelers like Dior, Chanel, and Jaubalet. But the latter stands out from all the others: the jeweler based in London and Paris, in fact, has taken the road of bespoke jewels. The most surprising aspect is that it does so even with the help of 3D printing. For the uninitiated, 3D machines are printers that reproduce an entire object, rather than just drawing or photography. There are also bijoux made in 3D, but usually it is plastic.

Now, however, this technology is also used in the temple of jewelry, Place Vendôme. Of course, the jewels are not made of plastic: the 3D printer is used to create the models on which the craftsmen then make the real jewel. But it is a quantum leap in design. The jewels can be made to measure, or more simply personalized through the choice of different options directly on the internet, for example you can choose the type of stone or the gold color of a ring or a pair of earrings.

“I could not sign a check simply after looking at a picture on the internet,” explained a client of Jaubalet, Carine Pichon. «And if I buy something and then it’s not the size I want? If it is too big or too small? So I think that having something that is not the final product, but similar, when it comes to choosing size and shape, it is important to reassure customers that they are making the right choice “. Result: the customer, a month after her appointment with the 3D prototype, returned to take the finished jewelery and seemed satisfied. He bought a 6,000 euro diamond ring.

Thanks to a careful pricing policy, it seems that Jaubalet’s prices are up to 50% lower than the other big names who flock to the same square. “We have no showroom costs, all our products are made to order, so our prices are lower, more accessible, and we offer exceptional quality,” said Jaubalet’s commercial director Patrick Barruel a while ago to Euronews.

Digital design and more shapes of nature: between Los Angeles and Italy, this is is the Flowen mix ♦
Flowen is a digitally grown jewelry in Los Angeles. What does it mean? Simple: it is a hi-tech jewelery Maison, which design with inspiration by the strange primordial forms of natural elements and at the same time with the use of high-tech systems. In this case, in short, craftsmanship is the designer who is at the computer: jewels are instead produced using a metal powder in gold, silver or alloy, transformed into separate pieces without by-products, with a technique similar to 3D printing. The pieces are then assembled by goldsmiths in Italy. Jewelry prices vary between 1500 and 2,000 euros.

Orecchino in argento sterling placcato oro rosa

Biology and geology, in particular, are the sources of inspiration: Flowen is also recognizable through the Phi mark, that is, the Greek letter that in mathematics is used as a symbol of the golden section. It was chosen because it is the initials of the name, in Greek, of the sculptor and architect Fidia (the one who designed the Parthenon), who found perfect proportions in his works. And so: the inspirational models of these jewels are nature, technology and a bit of ancient culture. Who would have guessed it? Giulia Netrese

It is already time to think about the New Year’s Eve on December 31st. In Italy, and not only, for the last day of the year red is the mandatory color: but do you know why? It is a long story that we now explain to you. But for jewelry, just wear a ring on your finger, a necklace or an earring to respect the tradition that wants to wear something vermilion in color to enter the new year. But of course, nothing prevents you from wearing red jewels even for the rest of the year.

Orecchini in oro rosa, piccoli diamanti e rubini

So, do you know why the tradition of wearing a red garment or a red jewel on the last day of the year was born?

Anello con diamanti e rubino taglio cuscino

According to some, it is a tradition that dates back to the time of the ancient Romans. During the era of Emperor Octavian Augustus (31 BC) for the Roman New Year it was customary to wear a deep red garment, the color of the garment of the senators. Red was considered a symbol of power, fertility, health and wealth. Later it also became the symbol of passion and love. At the end, a color brings luck.

That’s why wearing something red, like a ring with ruby, or earrings with rubellite or garnet, in Italy is considered a way to get 12 months of luck.

But, be careful, not everyone agrees with this reconstruction. According to others, in fact, the idea of the lucky red comes from China: in the East, in fact, this color is considered auspicious. So much so that red is used, for example, for weddings, to wish luck and fertility. An ancient Chinese tradition also confirms this: the red color was used to drive away an evil dragon, Nian, a demon who eats men. And precisely because it is able to drive away evil spirits, red is considered a good luck charm. All that remains is to immediately look for a jewel with a red stone.

Bracelets, rings and necklaces in gold made with a 3D printer: the innovation of Nuovi Gioielli di Vicenza ♦

Continue the tradition by breaking the tradition. It seems impossible, but not to Nuovi Gioielli, a goldsmith company from Vicenza founded in 1985, which has managed to overcome the contradiction. Nuovi Gioielli, in fact, makes rings, bracelets and earrings according to the classic traditional method, but also 3D printed. It is a real innovation, because 3D printing is usually used to obtain wax molds, which are used to obtain the casings used for gold fusion.

Nuovi Gioielli, instead, with the 3D printer manages to directly produce gold jewelry, adding small metal particles. In this way, thanks to special printers built for this purpose, new shapes and designs are obtained, with a special use of volumes. It is a step into the future of jewelry. Alongside this surprising production activity, the Vicenza-based company also produces the classic handmade gold jewelry with the addition of diamonds and colored gems. Alessia Mongrando

Gold or silver jewelery created with a 3D printer and with the design you prefer. By Spring and Wonder, a service of Shapeways ♦

3D Jewelry made in gold 14 carat? This is what Shapeways offers its customers (only in U.S.) by Spring and Wonder. And it does so through a process that is a mix of old and new techniques combined together. How it works: as for all other materials, namely silver, brass, bronze and steel, we start from the drawing. Which takes the form of wax with a 3D printer with high resolution. The next step is to put the model in a container where it is poured liquid plaster. When the plaster settles, the wax is dissolved with heat and remains a mold which is subsequently filled with molten gold. Once cooled and hardened, just break the chalk and then wipe and polish by hand the object to give it that sheen typical of gold jewelery. Where is the news? In the material. In fact, if the 3D technology has now become a habit for jewelers and designers to prototype, design complex shapes with geometries that are not possible through the traditional molds, now this option is also extended to the most precious metal. With some adjustments in the printing process. So did Nervous System, an art and design firm based in Somerville specialized in jewelry and accessories, to produce a bracelet in 18k gold.The process is based on interlocking components.

It is a system, called Kinematics, for printing 4D that creates complex foldable shapes, composed of a minimum of ten up to a thousand articulated modules that fit together to construct mechanical and dynamics structures. Each component is rigid, but the aggregate becomes a flexible set. But the assembly is not manual: hinge mechanisms are directly connected and printed in the 3D machine. The use of gold has been made possible by the Direct Metal Laser Sintering technology of Cooksongold, which transforms the metal powder in indivisible compounds. There remains a problem: cost. For example, a pendant Shapeways 2.5 cm x 2.5 cm x 2.5 cm will spend about a thousand dollars. Not exactly cheap. Then you can settle for a 24-carat gold plating as that of Shootdigital, which produces 3D prints in nickel, black nickel, silver, copper and rhodium (platinum) and gold.

Virtual 3D world in jewelry with Marlù

The virtual world enters jewelry with the first store of Marlù ♦ ︎

The world of jewelry is largely linked to traditions. And this applies above all to the last part of the journey of a jewel, that is, sale. There is no place less tied to the time of a jewelry store, with its soft armchairs and soft lighting. Probably it will remain so for a long time, also because a certain type of clientele seeks precisely that sense of exclusivity that that get with this kind of furnitures.
But the times they are changing, not all customers are the same, not all jewels are created for the same type of audience. Here, then, that are coming ways of selling in tune with the times and, especially with the tastes of younger buyers, accustomed to live in the digital age. This news, in short, should not be taken lightly: the case of Marlù may, instead, be the first experiment of a long series.
Basically the novelty is this: in conjunction with the opening of the first monobrand in Rome of Marlù, in the Romaest shopping center, the Romagna brand of the Fabbri sisters inaugurates its first virtual boutique. You use it by downloading a free app on your smartphone (from the app stores for iPhone or Android). The app allows you to navigate in interactive mode, even in 3D, inside the store, discovering the products. Thanks to VR Experience technology, each collection «refers to dreamlike journeys that enhance its spirit and imagination, making it live in the round of the visitor. Also wanting in a three-dimensional dimension, thanks to the glasses that are available to the public in the Roman store “. It will be interesting to verify the impact, but it is a novelty for the world of jewelry.

Platinum printed in 3D

Published on March 19, 2016

news

The 3D printing has long been used for jewelry. But in most cases the jewels are of plastic, even though of good quality. Now, however, you can create platinum jewelry with the Cooksongold printer, British company that has developed a device in degrees to realize jewelry, starting from powder of the precious metal. The system offers the possibility of complex platinum jewelry production: it’s a fairly difficult metal to work with because of its resistance is brilliant, malleable, hypoallergenic and is a very strong material and even more durable than gold. The metal, say jewelers, it is prone to cracking or shrinkage during the milling process. Create jewelry with a 3D printer may solve the problem. The platinum powder can be printed in 3D and then the jewel can be milled and polished. No need for tools and dies, and prototypes can be made in a few hours. The printer, which can also be used to create jewelry in gold or silver, was presented at Baselworld. To demonstrate the effectiveness of the new method, Cooksongold and Platinum Guild International also commissioned two British designers to design and produce some test jewelry, as seen in the movie on this page.

Aquilaes, your jewelry in 3D

Published on October 11, 2015

Are you a designer which is looking to accomplish your work? Are you a fan of jewelry product that wants to see his idea? Would you like to show your creation in a virtual storefront? Technology can give you a hand. Or, rather, it may be useful to use Aquilaes technology. It pays to read this story. Aquilaes was founded in 2013 in Nice, France, by a diamond dealer, Sami De Hantsetters, and an experienced jeweler, Eric Tonin. The company offers an innovative experience of creating a jewel, with a marriage of craftsmanship and the digital world. In short, you can turn an idea into reality through the combination with new technologies. Here’s how: Aquilaes is formed by a team of specialists that realize the drawing. There is a jeweler and setter of precious stones, a diamond dealer, two graphic designers and a marketing and communication manager. “The company way, the modus operandi of the traditional jewelry, are revolutionized,” explain to Aquilaes, “as the traditional hand-carved wax molds are replaced by 3DM file format on computer. Starting from the creative project of any precious (wedding rings, rings, earrings, pendants, bracelets), Aquilaes realizes, for a private or a jeweler, a technical drawing and a prototype in 3D. ” Thanks to the technical design 3D you can watch the jewel in all its dimensions before it is actually realized. Thanks to 3D image (see http://www.aquilaes.it/immagini-foto-video-3D-gioielli), therefore, the customer can give the ok.
Another important advantage, they says from Nice, is saving time and money, since one .3dm file, you can create endless prints and jewel unlimited changes to the initial prototype. Additionally, the file is not only used for the production in any type of metal (four types of gold, silver and platinum), but also for the realization of images and video. “Think about the usefulness of being able to create virtual storefronts in jewelry (on any electronic device: computer, tablet, or smartphone) reducing huge storage costs and the risks of theft,” they says from Aquilaes. Not missing, however, the craft work: the human hand is not replaceable. “Our jeweler is responsible for all stages after 3D printing: casting in metal, modeling, embedding and polishing of jewelery”, say in the company.

In her jewelry shop Orolo, in San Giovanni Valdarno, in the heart of Aretino country, one of the Italian goldsmith circuits, Fiorella Cappelli strives to combine 3D technology with the desire to create something new. “In my youth I start working in the jewellery business. I soon loved jewels and since then I never changed. All my life has been in the jewellery. During all these past years I have seen so many changes: fashion,increase and decrease of gold and silver price, technologies, way of marketing, new opening for exporting countries, crises”, says the designer himself. “Every time is like to start all over again but background, more acknowledge, the experience acquired makes possible more development, if you have an open mind.Nowadays to develop and produce in 3D gives a great opportunity to make designs come true; you almost have no limit to your fantasy”. Her experience led then the designer to develop and produce 3D. The result is jewellery in gold or silver made, like this necklace or bracelet, made with elaborate production technique, with rich embroidery and decorations. Scrolls and floral shapes intertwine with a studied art jewelry.

La collana che raddrizza la schiena

PosturAroma, la collana che raddrizza la schiena. Progettata da un team di studenti del MediaLab dell’Università di Amsterdam, la collana realizzata con una stampante 3D è in grado di rilevare il movimento e l’angolo della schiena di chi la indossa. Se la colonna dorsale è inclinata, con le spalle giù e con una postura scorretta, un dispositivo interno rilascia un profumo, che ricorda alla persona di stare dritta per assumere una posizione più sicura di sé e meno nociva. L’idea parte da una ricerca dove si evidenzia come gli aggressori cercano vittime distratte che guardano verso il basso o hanno un’andatura curva mentre camminano. Sovvenzionato da Cisco, il colosso americano di tecnologia per le telecomunicazioni, il progetto ha una valenza sociale perché se da un lato indaga sulle connessioni tra emozioni e profumi, sono gli 11 aromi testati tra cui fragola, citronella, cappuccino, neroli, menta, buccia di mandarino, alcool, vaniglia, mela e feromoni, dall’altro porta un beneficio terapeutico, e può influenzare positivamente le donne migliorando il loro umore e l’autostima. Certo, il disegno deve essere migliorato e anche l’analisi sulle reazioni individuali agli odori ulteriormente approfondita, magari in un ambiente naturale ossia all’esterno del laboratorio e di notte. Ma se da sempre il gioiello rappresenta una gratificazione e ora più che mai anche un’espressione dei sentimenti, in futuro è possibile sia pure uno strumento per sentirsi meno vulnerabili.

The necklace that straightens your back

PosturAroma, the necklace that straightens your back. Designed by a team of students from University of Amsterdam MediaLab, the bulky necklace is made with a 3D printer and detect movement as well as the angle of the wearer’s back. If they are slouching, an internal device releases a scent that that is supposed to inspire them to keep their backs straight. The idea is based on a research which highlights how criminals seek victims less confident or looking down while walk. Comissioned by Cisco, the giant American telecommunications technology, the project has a social value because while it investigates the connections between emotions and fragrances, are been tested 11 aromas including strawberry, lemon grass, cappuccino, neroli, mint, mandarin peel, alcohol, vanilla, apple and pheromones, on the other hand brings a therapeutic benefit, and can positively affect women by improving their mood and self-esteem. Sure, the design should be improved and also the analysis on the individual reactions to odors further investigated, perhaps in a natural environment, outside the laboratory and at night. But if the jewelry is always a gratification and now more than ever an expression of feelings, in the future it is possible will be a tool to feel less vulnerable.

Le collier qui redresse le dos

PosturAroma, le collier qui redresse le dos. Conçu par une équipe d’étudiants a MediaLab de l’Université d’Amsterdam, le collier volumineux est fait avec une imprimante 3D et détecter les mouvements ainsi que l’angle du dos de l’utilisateur. Si la colonne vertébrale est inclinée, avec les épaules vers le bas et une mauvaise posture, un dispositif interne libère un parfum qui est censé les inciter à garder le dos droit. L’idée est basée sur une recherche qui met en lumière la façon dont les criminels cherchent des victimes qui ont moins confiance ou regardant vers le bas tout en marche. Comissioned par Cisco, le géant de la technologie de télécommunications américain, le projet a une valeur sociale parce que, si elle enquête sur les liens entre les émotions et les parfums, sont été testé 11 arômes, y compris la fraise, de la citronnelle, cappuccino, néroli, menthe, écorce de mandarine, de l’alcool, de la vanille , de pomme et de phéromones, d’autre part apporte un bénéfice thérapeutique, et peuvent influer positivement sur les femmes en améliorant leur humeur et l’estime de soi. Bien sûr, la conception doit être améliorée et aussi l’analyse sur les réactions individuelles à des odeurs enquête plus approfondie, peut-être dans un environnement naturel, en dehors du laboratoire et pendant la nuit. Mais si le bijou est toujours un plaisir, et maintenant plus que jamais l’expression de sentiments, dans l’avenir, il est possible sera un outil pour se sentir moins vulnérables.

Wenn sie krumm sind, gibt ein interner Geräte ein Duft, das soll sie inspirieren, ihren Rücken gerade zu halten. Die Idee basiert auf einer Forschung, die unterstreicht, wie Kriminelle suchen Opfer weniger zuversichtlich oder auf der Suche nach unten, während Spaziergang basiert. Von Cisco, dem riesigen amerikanischen Telekommunikationstechnik in Auftrag gegeben, hat das Projekt einen sozialen Wert, denn während es die Verbindungen zwischen Emotionen und Duftstoffe untersucht, getestet wurde 11 Aromen auch Erdbeere, Zitronengras, Cappuccino, Neroli, Minze, Mandarine schälen, Alkohol, Vanille , Apfel und Pheromone, auf der anderen Seite bringt einen therapeutischen Nutzen und positiv beeinflussen können Frauen durch die Verbesserung ihrer Stimmung und Selbstwertgefühl. Klar, sollte das Design verbessert werden und auch die Analyse auf die einzelnen Reaktionen auf Gerüche weiter untersucht, vielleicht in einer natürlichen Umgebung, außerhalb des Labors und in der Nacht. Aber wenn der Schmuck ist immer eine Befriedigung und heute mehr denn je ein Ausdruck von Gefühlen, die in der Zukunft ist es möglich, ein Werkzeug, um weniger anfällig fühlen.

Если они сутулый, внутреннее устройство выпускает аромат, который, что, как предполагается, вдохновить их, чтобы держать их спиной прямо. Идея основана на исследовании, которое показывает, как преступники стремятся жертв менее уверенно или глядя вниз в то время ходьбы. Приглашенные Cisco, гигантской американской технологии телекоммуникаций, проект имеет социальное значение, так как в то время она исследует связи между эмоциями и ароматов, которые были протестированы 11 ароматы включая клубники, лимонной травы, капучино, нероли, мяты, мандарина корки, алкоголя, ваниль , яблоко и феромоны, с другой стороны приносит терапевтический эффект, и может положительно повлиять на женщин путем улучшения их настроение и самооценку. Конечно, дизайн должен быть улучшена, а также анализ на отдельных реакций на запахи дальнейшее расследование, возможно, в естественной среде, за пределами лаборатории и ночью. Но если ювелирные изделия всегда удовлетворение и сейчас, как никогда выражение чувств, в будущем можно будет инструментом, чтобы чувствовать себя менее уязвимыми.

La idea se basa en una investigación que pone de relieve cómo los criminales buscan víctimas menos seguros o mirando hacia abajo mientras camina.
