People should work on improving their foresight, because everyone’s hindsight is 20/20.

Quite so.

Definitely has some good points. Some may say it’s surprising to hear such words from Chaplin, considering that he was an actor, but keep in mind, everyone carries wisdom.

I just find it sad that people still do not realize a lot of the things that he states.

wildcat2030:

Traditionally, chairs that are designed to be easy to stack and store focus more on functionality than aesthetics. So thank you Calligaris for going a few extra miles with their stylish new Skin chairs providing some much needed comfort… for the eyes. But besides spending a bit more time on the chair’s physical design, Calligaris will also make the seats from a new composite biomaterial they developed called Liquid Wood. As the name implies, the material is made from plastic polymer and wood fibers. Meaning the raw materials are renewable, and the chairs can be completely recycled. The Skin chairs could even be mass produced on the cheap, since the Liquid Wood material can be injected into molds on an automated assembly line. And while the final product is technically made of wood, when the material hardens it retains the plastic’s flexibility and durability so they should stand up to a good amount of abuse. (via In the Future, Stacking Chairs Will Be Made From Liquid Wood and Look Fantastic)

I’m quite a fan of hedonistic sustainability, and this just fits. It’s appealing to the eye, it’s functional, and it’s practical.

A completely reasonable argument that I agree with wholeheartedly. Our intentions lead us to our results.
