Introducing Parcel by Pinch Food Design: Catering Re-Imagined Again

We could all use a memorable, fun, and delicious escape… luckily this is our specialty.

This month Pinch launched Parcel, an elevated, at-home, food and beverage experience, meant to connect people, even when they’re apart. As the COVID-19 pandemic rages on, it couldn’t have arrived at a better time.

When opening the customizable furoshiki-style wrapped parcel, “guests” will discover a balanced and diverse menu plated in chic minimalist reusable steamer baskets, and imaginative cocktails paired with thoughtfully curated glass and cork barware. Parcel is the solution to so many companies having to re-invent how they entertain, fund-raise and virtually gather… oh, and did we mention it’s zero-waste!?

Pre-COVID, tech companies and start-ups famously prioritized lavish, in-house food and beverage programs to increase productivity and engagement among their talent. From bottomless coffee and candy bars to daily happy hours and ping pong tournaments, these office perks were also used as recruitment and retention tools in a competitive job market. Now that staff is relegated to their homes, the corporate sector is scrambling to woo their teams from a distance.

Similarly, non-profits have found value in Parcel as a replacement for the opulent galas and fundraisers they were accustomed to hosting in a pre-face mask world. Where they would once invite 1500 donors to dress in black tie and toast to monies raised, the pivot to offering “guests” a uniquely memorable catering experience in their homes is the only way to maintain a steep price-tag per ticket.

Parcel is available now. Contact info@pinchfooddesign.com for more information.

These pants are made with the world’s strongest material woven into its fabric – Graphene

There’s a high chance that the Omega pants will outlive the human race. Now I’m not being a pessimist, I’m just stating that these all-purpose pants come with the toughest ever material known to man woven into its fabric. With a lifetime warranty that should last long enough for it to be passed down multiple generations, the Omega pants were built to literally be worn forever, or quite possibly until the end-times… a little too stark? Maybe, but it drives the point home! Designed for practically any activity that requires pants, the Omega pants by Graphene-X come with a 3-layer fabric that isn’t just destruction-proof, it’s stretchable, waterproof, and has the ability to regulate your body’s temperature so you could potentially wear the same pair of pants while rock-climbing in the sun or on a skiing trip to a snow-capped peak. The pants’ fabric as well as its construction together help it juggle its different roles. Styled like a pair of all-purpose pants with removable leg-pieces, ...

A lounge chair you can ‘lean on’

Remember the Ovini Balance Stool from last year? The Sway Chair is the Ovini’s bigger brother with a backrest! Designed to be a lounging chair that has the flexibility of perhaps the beanbag, KI’s Sway Chair comes with a hemispherical base that rests on a freely rotating and swiveling base that has 4 legs. The contact points between the seating area and the base have ball bearings concealed within them that allow you to lean forwards, backwards, or even sideways in the chair, choosing a position that’s comfortable for you. With a simple physical action, you can change the chair from a work-chair to a lounger to lean back and relax in. There’s a certain bit of resistance/friction too, which means the chair retains the position you set it in, rather than swinging willy-nilly. Oh, and this one, unlike the Ovini, also comes with a rather nifty backrest as well as an adjustable foot-stool! Designer: KI Yanko Design https://ift.tt/2y1jNWK September 28, 2018 at 09:02PM

Contemporary Chinese Cinema: Shunji Iwai’s Letters from Shanghai

Contemporary Chinese Cinema is a column devoted to exploring contemporary Chinese-language cinema primarily as it is revealed to us at North American multiplexes. The sneakiest major release of the year is surely the latest from Japanese director Shunji Iwai, whose new movie opens this Friday at a dozen multiplexes around North America courtesy of the distributor China Lion Film. Last Letter is Iwai’s first film made in China, and stars Zhou Xun, who starred in one of last year’s best films, Ann Hui’s Our Time Will Come , which was also distributed here by China Lion. That he would be working in a new country is no surprise: Iwai is one of the more eclectic filmmakers of his generation: having started in TV and video in the early 90s before moving into film, he’s since made documentaries and music videos, science fiction films and anime, epics of modern alienation and ravishingly romantic odes to the wonders of youth and love. His last film, Chang-ok’s Letter , was an hour-long...
