The Wind Portal
The Wind Portal is an installation shaped as a monumental gate of 8 meters high and composed of 5.000 paper windmills that spin thanks to an integrated wind system, the aim was to make our visitors feel, hear and be aware of the action of transitioning through two spaces. The Wind Portal is part of the London Design Festival , and will be on display through November 3, 2013.
Designer Najla El Zein sais: "The wind portal tries to grasp and emphasise on common emotions and senses that are often forgotten. Its architectural shape works as a "trompe oeil" effect which, according to the angle you are positioned from, one would perceive the gate as being closed. As soon as you approach it, the gate seems to open up."

Samsung Galaxy S4: The Smart Phone Line
Samsung users are too smart to wait in line outside of a store for a smartphone. So, in New Zealand, Samsung created an online waiting line for the launch for the new Samsung Galaxy S4. For 12 days, people could get in the virtual line and as they shared and posted features from the S4 they moved forward in the line. A huge outdοor Led-screen visualised the line.
