Melbourne design label, Accessory Emergency, news, events, happenings, pop up markets, melbourne design markets, design process.

Accessory Emergency in a multidisciplinary industrial design company, and revels in the side project like these gorgeous tiki style self watering plant pots.

Sarah Cole

With a love of gardening and cookery, we crave fresh herbs no matter the apartment size and this new range of plant pots aims to create thriving herbaceous pots that can be freshly plucked from the kitchen window sill without using allot of precious floor or sill space. The accessory emergency studio is small and has allot of multitasking functionality and so these extra tall self watering plant pots are being developed to maximise small window spaces. The Genoa basil is really thriving at the moment, and we are excited by our extra tall cherry tomato pots. These are all 3d printed designs which will enable incremental improvements to be made. The Bambu labs x1 carbon prints effortlessly and unique faceted topology creates a support free design that also seems to be working well for root system development.

Spring has sprung and i am messing around with some experimental lighting installations

Sarah Cole

I love indulging in a little of the beaten path experimentation. The following designs are completely accidental, and i’m not sure where this is headed but i look forward to the unfolding effect.

These lighting installations have been printed in a wafer thin congregation’s (0.4 mm wall sections) this gives them a light and crispy feel and beautiful light diffusion. The origins of the process is 3d printing, and this is actually support structure from another design salvaged from the process, this is normally discarded as a waste product of 3D printing, when i removed these little support wafers i knew they were destined for greater things. Printed in irresistibly subtle pink PLA a plant based printing filament by Bambu Labs called PLA Pink Glow (yes it does glow in the dark). My natural response was to start messing around with them under my numerous light sources and i was delighted by the results, and incidentally have the perfect spring energy.

Initial play time under raw bulb exposure, hidden behind the digital SLS Twigs (a different type of 3d printing called selective laser sintering), and using stands made from the colour and layer swatch that is printed on a multi material print on the Bambu X1 carbon 3d printer.

Final arrangement, the light source is a halogen globe under a large vintage spherical milk glass light shade.

Giving beautiful Showa Retro Japan vibes. Cherry Blossom is in full effect at the moment in Victoria, such a fragile and dramatic moment. Blossoms only for a limited time, NOW!!!

Finally experiencing the glowing decay of the pink PLA, there are no interior light sources, just a little bit of ambient street light, everything else is coming from the glow in dark material. Just gorgeous and for anyone with the Bambu Lab Printer, here is a link to the product page

CONTEMPORARY Y2K JEWELLERY DIRECT FROM THE ACCESSORY EMERGENCY ARCHIVE

Sarah Cole

FROM THE ACCESSORY EMERGENCY ARCHIVE - Y2K CONTEMPORARY JEWELLERY

Accessory Emergency has been designing pieces since the early 2000’s, and while on trend is always a purer cut of style that is timeless.

This Ginko Bib circa 2006 was a forerunner of the bib style, it features a removable fine silver hand cut decal with a bib constructed from the finest Italian cotton drill. A fine Statement Accessory of its time, crisp vector silhouettes and an instilled sense of contemporary luxury that truly breaks from tradition

GORGEOUS FINDS - VINTAGE POCKET WATCH CONVERSION

Sarah Cole

Circa post World War 1 sterling case with intricate flower etchings, a women’s pocket watch converted to a man’s wrist watch, or might be for a lady? Hall marks are for London post 1907, in 925, this conversion likely occurred due to the high demand for wrist watches post World War One…. Plans for this beauty are a few restorative tweaks including glass and strap replacement, otherwise this stunner is in perfect order and keeps time after winding. We hope to have this restored with bezel and available before December 2022. The perfect unique eco luxury vintage Christmas gift.

UP COMING LISTINGS
