I could not find my measuring tape when I first started WW and then half of the time I'd forget to look for it. So I went ahead and bought a new one last week. I love the results! <3
I've got to get a better, more accurate scale for counting carbs! I caught Dominic playing with the wheel adjustment on this one the other day.
All those fish guys at Tsukiji have to get fish guys scales somewhere!
Found this little gem tucked away in a corner of the market on our way out, looked like this one had "cornered the market"...oh boy...
You know what else? there's a great joke in here somewhere involving "fish" and "scales", but you know what, I am just gonna let that one alone...

Scale models of thirteen designs from Proposta per un'autoprogettazione ('Proposal for a self-design'), 1973

A radical proposal
Perhaps Mari's most overt attempt to democratise design and subvert the market was his seminal project Proposta per un'autoprogettazione ('Proposal for a self-design'). He devised instructions for the self-design of 19 models of furniture comprising only wooden boards and nails, using the simplest carpentry techniques. Mari published them as a catalogue, available to any individual for the price of postage. Later, a few of the technical drawings were distributed through manufacturer Simon International. Of the project, he said: 'In 1974, I thought that if people were encouraged to build a table, for example, with their own hands, they would be able to better understand the underlying thinking that has gone into it.' Today this project is recognised as an important precursor to the open-source movement.*
From the exhibition
Enzo Mari
(March – September 2024)
This major exhibition celebrates the life and work of one of the greatest Italian designers of the 20th century, Enzo Mari, whose designs have inspired generations of creatives around the world)
Not only one of the 20th century’s most significant designers, Mari was also an artist, teacher, theorist, and more. During his prolific career, he created countless enduring and timeless designs, filling the homes and streets of the Milanese and beyond. An outspoken critic of the design industry, his uncompromising belief in the social responsibility of design resonates powerfully today, as we face ecological and ethical issues with ever greater urgency.
This unmissable retrospective which was produced and presented by Triennale Milano in 2020, spans Mari’s 60-year career and brings together hundreds of his projects, ranging from furniture, children’s books and games, product and graphic design, to more conceptual installation-based works. Archival material provides greater insight into Mari’s research process, and the key principles that guided and unified his work.
