Fabio Novembre Updates Skull-Shaped Chair For Mexico's Day Of The Dead

To commemorate this year’s Day of the Dead, designer Fabio Novembre has updated his Jolly Roger armchair by covering it in a traditional sugar-skull pattern. Originally launched by Italian brand Gufram in 2013, Novembre’s skull chair appears minimal from the front, but its back is designed to resemble a human skull. The skull on the new edition – launched to coincide with Day of the Dead, or Dia de Los Muertos – is hand-painted to include bones and teeth, as well as traditional Mexican sugar-skull patterns such as lace and flowers. Inside, the skull chair features a map of the world, just like the original Jolly Roger.

Honda Sports EV Concept

Japanese manufacturer Honda, off of its recent Urban EV Concept which combined contemporary electric car tech with a retro compact style, now unveils the Sports EV Concept. The vehicle adapts new and old once again, with AI functionality and small traces of classic design cues from Honda’s ’70s-era visible throughout. Installed is Honda’s Automated Network Assistant, which handles navigation and a feature called “emotion engine” that gauges the feelings that influence your driving decisions in an effort to ”unite the driver and car.” The approach is similar to many automakers embracing electric cars; this concept in particular is similar to Volkswagen’s I.D. – a fusion of new tech and old models. And just like it, there’s no word on whether the concept will ever go into production. (hypebeast)
