No call to Kelly Wearstler from "Top Design" appears to have been made.
His latest – strange, haunting, hyperreal – is set in Stockport too, a place that in Anna Fleischle's design appears to have been entirely concreted over, as if someone wants to hide a terrible secret.
The number of young women -- beautiful, multinamed and transcontinental -- who have taken up jewelry design appears to be expanding at the same pace as Californians becoming nutritionally dependent on wheat grass.
As it happens, she said, design appears to be moving in the wrong direction – thinner phones are harder to open and repair, and tend to be held together with glue, not screws, making them more difficult to disassemble.
So the Explorer's design appears to cost about 100 extra lives a year -- almost as many deaths each year as in tire-related crashes of Explorers over the entire decade.
She and her fiance threw together a page in "a few hours" and called it Occupy Together, and the design appears to have been emulated by others trying to organize in dozens of cities, including Boston, Seattle and Portland, Ore.
Even so, the new design appears to keep alive Moore's law -- the 1965 observation by a co-founder of Intel that the number of transistors etchable on a chip will tend to double every two years.
The studio design appears to have been inspired by a high-street optician, with Derbyshire standing at a clinical white counter and members of the public sitting sipping hot drinks at plastic tables while they wait to have their views tested.
Grants were forthcoming from government local and national – no private finance initiative, thank you – and the design appears to have helped inspire staff and children to what the latest Ofsted report called a combination of "achievement, extremely high standards of care and lots of fun".
