You Can Make Your Walls Look Like a Metro Station’s Ceiling | Colored Polycarbonate Sheet

The Kurant Tap House opened this summer, with designs by JKRP Architects. It boasts a rustic-industrial look, with a concrete floor, exposed wood and brick, and wide windows. The finished applewood now sits as the top of the bar, varnished and shining. Right behind it, Meyers serves Kurant hard cider, a brand he formed only four years ago with his business partner Joe Getz.

Ive’s decision to offer choice was a challenge to Apple’s recurring theme of design inevitability. In one of our conversations, Ive was scathing about a rival’s product, after asking me not to name it: “Their value proposition was ‘Make it whatever you want. You can choose whatever color you want.’ And I believe that’s abdicating your responsibility as a designer.” Cook told me, “Jony has better taste than anyone I ever met in my life,” and Ive might not demur. Over lunch in an Apple cafeteria, Ive said that he wouldn’t think of challenging the technical decisions of “the best silicon-chip designers in the world,” who were sitting around us. But industrial designers, he said, are rarely offered the same deference—in part, because most people regularly make taste-based decisions, about shoes and lamps.

Created as a clean sheet design using Jaguar Land Rover’s Lightweight Aluminum Architecture, the Velar represents the next chapter of the Range Rover success story. The Velar is defined by a visually reductive approach in its design, which evolves the Range Rover DNA and previews the next generation of Range Rover vehicles.

Now, Meyers points proudly to the pulley, which he left hanging from the rafters, a subtle symbol of what it took to bring Kurant’s tap house to life.

Before we went outside, Ive showed me the work he’d done on staircases, and on the signage for employee security-card readers; we examined brightly colored polycarbonate panels that will help people establish where, beneath the loop, they have parked. Pinned to a wall were alternate versions of a visitor reception center, separate from the loop. Seen from above, both were modified rectangles. One, marked “Pill,” had half-circles at either end. The other ended in a more familiar Apple way, and was labelled “iPhone.” “We should be done, but we’re still redoing and redoing,” Ive said. He had recently introduced the iPhone option, partly for fear that a visitor approaching the Pill by its rounded ends might mistake it for an echo of the main building. He had also insisted—“a big fight”—on simplifying the control panels of the Mitsubishi elevators.

Though the menu at Toast & Tonic offers a variety of culinary cultures and is decidedly international, it seeks to celebrate India’s bio-diversity, working with local producers to ensure that Indian products are championed. From sausages that have been cured and made in-house to smoked meats, mustards, syrups, breads and kimchis, the dishes have been born of free expression, much like the philosophy that the East Village is known to embrace.

This week the bus will be in Lot 15 again, or maybe parked by Fishbone Grill & Oyster Bar across the street from AT&T Stadium before the Cowboys take on the Tampa Bay Buccaneers on Sunday. Darwin will be on the grill. Sandy will be cooking something on the stove. Family and friends will be hanging out and strangers will come by to take some pictures.
