Please touch this

While in Jackson, Mississippi, we stopped at
NunoErin, a new company founded by Nuno and Erin.
They design and produce furniture and installations that promote interactions between people and objects. If you're re-working your space, redesigning a client's space or looking for something really unique to get people talking about your space or event, you
need to see this.
Their products include:
+ Wall panels that react to human touch (like those
80's t-shirts times TEN.)
+ Stools, lounges and other furniture that react to body temperature, sunlight and touch
+ Pillows that promote human interaction and touch
They've also created a system for sustainable lighting of outdoor surfaces like concrete and pavement using bio luminescent organisms. These
don't require power and could be used for temporary or permanent installations. Possibilities include:
+ Lighting streets and sidewalks for events, with custom colors and design
+ Way-finding graphics for flood-prone areas (like New Orleans) that don't require power or structures (imagine roads that glow in the dark to help trapped citizens find their way to safety.)
We fell in love with Nuno & Erin, their incredible studio and the possibilities that their work bring to the architectural, interior design and event industries. We think you will, too.
See video of Nuno, Erin and the NunoErin products in action on the wrapup video for Jackson, Mississippi. Definitely needs to be seen to be believed!
