Review: The Monocle Guide to Better Living

Posted on   |  November 11, 2013  |  No Comments

Launched in 2007, London’s Monocle came right when the world was getting rough. It arrived at a time when the economy had seen better days yet emerged with a spotlight on quality, craftsmanship, education, knowhow, international affairs, business, and culture. All elements that succeed past any economical speed bump. For their first ever book, The The Monocle Guide to Better Living, the editorial team looks at their core theme – quality of life.

Love this 400-page book features original photography and illustrations printed on a selection of the highest quality papers with the goal of making the world a little more liveable and loveable.

The Monocle Guide to Better Living is the ultimate reference for inspirational ways to improve your life.

Fairphone, a new phone is not selling its new function, but tells us about the ethical story of “social value first”. Beside selling the product itself, it is an interesting point to create the attitude of conflict-free. Fairphone is addressed environmental and humanitarian concerns surrounding the production of technology products, therefore, they promise good working conditions in its factory, conflict-free material and responsible approach to e-waste.

Like KickstarterFairphone Netherlands team try to get 5,000 pre-order to kick start production. The risk-free business model is more popular since the launch of Kickstarter, it maybe scary, but it is amazingly effective in rallying people and encouraging high quality innovative ideas. The new business model aroused my curiosity. How can we know the founder is trustful? How can customers ensure their product quality even there are no real item is finished?

From the 7 to the 26 of February the MOBILE MUSEUM by Fabrica will be at the Ilivetomorrow gallery in Hong Kong. The MOBILE MUSEUM, by Fabrica designers Dean Brown and Philip Bone, is a travelling museum with contents contributed by people from all over the world and from different backgrounds. Unlike a conventional museum, the collection is always changing and evolving depending on its location, with the location itself dictating the theme. The curatorial theme of the Hong Kong’s stage is “Authentic”. Authentic speaks about the idea of what is genuine and what is not – particularly relevant to Hong Kong as a place that shares aspects of European and Chinese Culture – a place caught between different values. Authenticity touches everything from food, to production to song writing – something intangible but very real to the maker or the observer. Authentic is also tradition and custom.

Desire meets digital marketing

Posted on   |  December 3, 2012  |  No Comments

Successful advertisements don’t sell products but encourage a desire for products which is much easier to convince consumer to buy. Truly effective marketing campaign will not only fill this desire, but they will actually create the desire in your mind. Different people will obviously have different motivations so creating desire can require some planning and research.

In our digital world, marketers are much easier to come close to their target group through their desire. People allow to achieve their nature of human on internet, such like greedy, lazy, vanity, lust.

Some platform to get your target group

- groupon ( hope for save money)

- foursquare (vanity of LBS)

- twitter / facebook (peer)

When creating the “desire”, try to put yourself in the shoes of your customer.If possible, do research and interviews with customers and understanding what they are recently using in computer. You may find out some great insights which would able to delivery a truly new way of advertising.
