Floater is a chaise longue designed together with Mathias Bernhard at the Chair for CAAD, ETH Zurich and was produced in close collaboration with Kläusler Acrylstein AG.
The elegant sinuous design is based on the distinctive material properties of acrylic stone combined with advanced digital design and fabrication techniques. Generative modeling and analyzation tools were used to maximize the available area on each sheet of 12mm “HI-MACS solid surface” and minimize stress due to bending. The design was adopted according to these parameters and split in three parts to be manufacturable from standard sheet dimensions. The 2D-CNC cut flat pieces were then vacuum formed on 3-axis CNC milled MDF molds and afterwards seamlessly glue-joint to form a single monolithic shell. The wings on each side appear to hardly touch the ground and emphasize the floating appearance of the chaise. They also enable the user to gently rock back and forth while relaxing on the smooth and durable surface.
Four prototypes have so far been realized in Alpine White, Fiery Red and Black. The project is still under development but different colors are available on demand.

We are building an art float with friends and neighbors for this year’s Mill Valley Memorial Day Parade.
Our float for this parade features the Bamboodu Theater, a mobile puppet stage I created for civic events and art shows. Our first show stars Lady Liberty and Mr. Trump. As music plays, a Mr. Trump’s recent tweets and alternative facts appear on a news ticker. Each time Trump says something wrong, Liberty hits him on his thick, bobbing head.
As we march, we will invite parade watchers to sing along the inspiring poem by Emma Lazarus about the Statue of Liberty (“Give me your tired, your poor …”). Through this interactive art experience, we hope to engage people of all ages to change the world through civic action.
I am making this float in my front yard with a wonderful team at the Mill Valley Community Action Network (MVCAN), a local political group which I recently joined to resist the conservative takeover of our country.
In this photo session, we were joined by journalist Paul Liberatore and photographer James Cacciatore, who are reporting about this float for the Independent Journal, Marin County’s main newspaper. It was a pleasure to welcome them both and introduce them to our team.
I’m very grateful to all our friends and neighbors who are helping bring it to life: Danny Altman, Laura Boles, Phyllis Florin, David Glad, Peter Graumann, Edward Janne, Suz Lipman, Charlene Lundgren, Jean Marie Murphy and Mark Petrakis and Martha Roush, to name but a few.
Our Bamboodu Float is coming along beautifully, and we can’t wait to show it off at the parade on Monday, May 29, 2017.
Join your neighbors to keep democracy alive!

Meet Float! Think... a tasty strawberry soda float! Mmmmm... (Once you see her wig that'll make more sense... )
I was explaining to a friend at work how I came to buy only the head of a doll... because a friend of mine was selling off her floating heads... And I thought Float sounded like a tasty name for my Shushu. :D I'm not sure if the name will stick. We'll see after I get all her parts and some clothes. But for now this is Float.
Thank you so much Xhanthi! I love her!
Float planes are are a vital part of life in the north. You can fly out to an outpost camp or a full service fly-in lodge in a float plane. Take a tour of the town you are visiting for a different perspective.
When there were no Mardi Gras parades in 2021, the people of New Orleans stepped up, creating "house floats" for people to walk or drive around and see! It was SO much fun!
Mardi Gras is like Christmas- even if there are no parades, Mardi Gras will still come! It will arrive even if the Grinch tries to steal it! :)

(I have promised myself to finish getting the rest of the house floats pics posted, but OMG- I seem to have taken quite a few!)
"Already we'll all float on
Now don't you worry we'll all float on
Alright already we'll all float on
Alright don't worry we'll all float on".

In December 2012 I visited the Dallas Arboretum for Chihuly Nights, the night time exhibition of the world famous glass artist, Dale Chihuly. You could purchase a ticket either for a daytime visit, or one of the illuminated night visits called Chihuly Nights. These works of art were scattered over the 65 acres of the Dallas Arboretum. You had to purchase your ticket in advance online and no refunds were given for inclement weather. I was fortunate. The weather was fantastic on my chosen night, right before a big cold front moved through the area.
Emergency Service crews were called to the Hudson River at 23rd Street when a body was found floating near shore.
