atelier ted noten: dior 001


'dior001' - medicine storage capsule


amsterdam-based atelier ted noten has designed the 'dior 001' gun that is part of a larger new series entitled
'7 necessities for a women to feel like a woman through the eyes of a man'. 

the weapon of beauty discreetly hides an antique hairpin, lipgloss, medicine, a USB stick with 'secret information',
a 100 gram sterling silver bar. other products in the '7 necessities...' series include sunglasses, a bag, bionic arm piece,
shawl and more. the firearm is made from a 3D printed nylon body with 18 carat gold details executed through
traditional goldsmithing methods.

the selection of new works are presented by ornamentum gallery on the occasion of design miami / basel 2011.

What is the prupose of the silver bar?

Wow putain ce que c naze !?
Edouard Diantre   05.26.11
Why does a woman need to feel like a woman "through the eyes of a man" ?
How insulting.

Also, while I'm complaining, the lip gloss would be impossible to apply.
The brush should be in the silencer bit that comes off, not the other way around.

... guns. They're so-o-o-o chic, aren't they?

arki   05.26.11
More true to the “weapon of beauty” theme, this gun should be loaded with diet pills, a cigarette, the morning after pill and a dose of botox that can be shot through the gun right between the eyes.

we try to create a peaceful atmosphere in the world, and this shape of weapon does not help to the purpose.. simply i don't like it!
designydays   05.27.11
yea..what would the silver bar be for?
msrae   05.28.11
This made me feel both angry and perplexed. Really? 'Weapon of Beauty'?? What a belittling and overly simplistic look at femininity.
Michelle   05.28.11
where does the antique hair pin come from?
