Inspired by a tick's biological function, he created a mech that visually represents how ticks feed on creatures' skin. "I like how real-life ticks feed on a creature's skin, so I wanted to imply that in the design of this TICK mech taking energy from the land," Chen explains. His process involved: 1. **Drawing studies** to understand tick proportions, head details, and body forms 2. **Ideation sketches** transforming biological features into functional mech components 3. **Adding huge metal pipes** to create the appearance of complex walking equipment that extracts energy from surfaces  *Longque's drawing studies for his tick-inspired mech design (Image credit: Longque Chen)* The result is a **balanced, believable creation** that feels perfectly at home in its fantasy setting. ## Why Nature Works for Mech Design Natural inspiration offers several advantages: - **Organic forms** that feel more integrated with environments - **Functional adaptations** that can translate to mechanical purposes - **Evolutionary solutions** to movement, defense, and energy acquisition - **Visual storytelling** through biological metaphors ## Explore More Inspiration You can view more of Longque Chen's work on his [ArtStation profile](https://www.artstation.com/chenlongque). For those inspired to create their own pieces, consider exploring digital art tools and techniques. Nature continues to offer endless possibilities for innovative mech designs that blend biological inspiration with mechanical execution.]]></description> <author>contact@designremotejobs.com (DesignRemoteJobs.com)</author> <category>mechdesign</category> <category>conceptart</category> <category>natureinspiration</category> <category>scifi</category> <category>designtrends</category> <enclosure url="https://cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net/mLvD48qPjT6MJtxQc7o7j4-1000-80.jpg" length="0" type="image/jpg"/> </item> <item> <title><![CDATA[Why Gemini Still Can't Beat ChatGPT: 6 Critical Design Flaws Holding It Back]]></title> <link>https://www.designremotejobs.com/article/why-gemini-still-cant-beat-chatgpt-6-critical-design-flaws-holding-it-back</link> <guid>why-gemini-still-cant-beat-chatgpt-6-critical-design-flaws-holding-it-back</guid> <pubDate>Sun, 14 Dec 2025 19:00:21 GMT</pubDate> <description>< ## Long-term memory and continuity Gemini only recently got the handiest feature that ChatGPT has had forever — cross-chat memory. The feature lets ChatGPT remember what you mention in a chat, and it becomes a reference for your future interactions by default. So you don't have to tell it over and over how you prefer certain things and what you want avoided. It works like a person's memory, just sharper and without the fading. Gemini's version still feels limited compared to ChatGPT, as if it's a kid who's forgetful and struggling to catch up with all the information thrown at it. For one, I couldn't spot Gemini's Saved Info feature because it's called something entirely different on the Settings page — I had to Google it (ironically). Speak of user convenience! Moreover, Gemini didn't automatically add my instructions to its memory for following chats, which ChatGPT has long been doing effortlessly. Google did announce such a feature, but the implementation still feels far behind ChatGPT.  ## Folder organizer I've started using ChatGPT for a lot of things in my life, from checking minor health issues to keeping track of my finances. With so many varied tasks at hand, thanks to my muscle memory of firing it up at the slightest inconvenience, my ChatGPT needed some organization — and it had the feature built in. Instead of staring at a wall of chats, I've siloed them under different projects, with multiple chats living under each for easier access. Gemini continues to be a plain list of chats that sits unorganized, and you have to scroll through and read a bunch of titles to figure out what you're looking for. I'm not claiming ChatGPT's approach is bulletproof, but it's still a solid starting point for Gemini, which it seems to be adopting soon-ish.  ## General user-friendliness The Gemini app right now feels more like an **enterprise tool than a consumer one**. When you open it, you're greeted with a promotion for the latest Gemini model the app is running on — when end users are least concerned about what model is running behind the scenes. They just want their emails written quickly. What they expect is a predictable interface that invites them to talk to the chatbot instead of pushing them away slightly. This becomes obvious only when you open the two apps side by side. On ChatGPT, you get a welcome page that isn't packed with text, has the model name tucked away in a corner instead of being prominently advertised, and the text box gets all the focus, along with a couple of starter prompts to nudge you to begin. If Gemini picks up one thing from ChatGPT to make its app better, I want it to be this.  ## Third-party integrations Google has a pretty solid app ecosystem of its own — you can get your productivity sorted with Workspace apps and come to YouTube when you're bored. Gemini integrates across all those apps seamlessly without requiring any additional setup. It just works — as long as you're in the Google ecosystem, that is. It cannot connect with any third-party app, and guess what, people do use apps other than Gmail and Docs. ChatGPT has a much richer ecosystem of third-party integrations. You can talk to Spotify or Slack or even Google Drive, plus there are a bunch of custom GPTs to play with. That kind of interoperability makes it a much smarter app for anyone who isn't strictly locked into the Google ecosystem. Opening up Gemini to more tools outside Workspace would make it a more capable assistant.  ## Clearer quotas and timeline Google's One AI plans have tons of variations these days, each with a different quota, and the app also limits Gemini usage on the latest LLM when there are too many concurrent users. So you never really know whether you have three messages left or thirty. This is more of a wishlist — since ChatGPT doesn't do it yet either — but I wish Gemini would clearly show how much daily quota is left. A simple progress bar would be enough. While we're at it, what I really want Gemini (and even ChatGPT) to adopt is awareness of exactly when a message was sent. This would help it keep a precise track of when we had a particular exchange and how much time has passed since then. This is especially helpful in chats that require timeline knowledge, like my history with a client I'm working on a long-term project with.  ## Better cross-platform access Since it's a Google product, Gemini obviously works better on Android phones — you can access it from multiple locations: a corner swipe, the search bar, a voice command, and from inside apps. But you can't say the same on an iPhone. Except for the dedicated mobile app, you can't even open Gemini through the main Google app, adding a lot of friction. On top of that, Gemini doesn't even have an app for Mac or Windows, which makes it feel behind the curve compared to ChatGPT. Maybe a better presence across the board could help Gemini's case. How has your experience with Gemini been so far? Is there anything you saw on the ChatGPT app that you wish Google had copied for Gemini long ago?]]></description> <author>contact@designremotejobs.com (DesignRemoteJobs.com)</author> <category>gemini</category> <category>chatgpt</category> <category>ai</category> <category>ux</category> <category>design</category> <enclosure url="https://www.androidauthority.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/10/google-pixel-4-active-edge-gemini-hero-1-scaled.jpg" length="0" type="image/jpg"/> </item> <item> <title><![CDATA[Discover How This 'Breathing' Home in Vietnam Uses Perforated Brick Walls to Create Natural Ventilation and Light]]></title> <link>https://www.designremotejobs.com/article/discover-how-this-breathing-home-in-vietnam-uses-perforated-brick-walls-to-create-natural-ventilation-and-light</link> <guid>discover-how-this-breathing-home-in-vietnam-uses-perforated-brick-walls-to-create-natural-ventilation-and-light</guid> <pubDate>Fri, 12 Dec 2025 19:00:26 GMT</pubDate> <description>< ### The Concept: More Than Just Shelter "The idea was to imagine a home that does more than shelter, a home that breathes, softly and continuously, through light, air, and the warmth of local materials," explained Live Out Studio co-founder Van Tan Quyen Le. The house contains **two separate residences** – one for the family's parents and another for their daughter – cleverly separated by a **narrow central courtyard** that provides natural light and ventilation throughout the structure. ### Material Harmony and Local Craftsmanship From the beginning, the design embraced a **single, harmonious material palette**: clay-toned corrugated roof, handcrafted brick façades, bamboo shade, clay-rendered walls, and brick garden paving. "Woven together like an earthy carpet flowing seamlessly from inside to out, this continuity allows the home to settle naturally into its setting, as if grown from the ground itself," Quyen added.  ### Spatial Organization: A Delicate Puzzle Le describes the organization of the conjoined homes as a "delicate puzzle," with each having its own individual needs and feng shui orientation. Each home's living, kitchen and dining space occupies the ground floor, organized around **two distinct staircases** – one at the front finished in timber and clay plaster and one at the rear in folded, painted steel. The parents' living room opens onto an entrance yard shaded by a **bamboo canopy**, while the daughter's overlooks the central courtyard through folding, timber-framed windows above a built-in bench. ### The Signature Facade: Breathing Architecture Terracotta Breath's **perforated brick facade** forms a double-skin for a ceremonial hall on the first floor of the parents' home. Here, a small balcony is sandwiched between the brick and sliding glass windows, allowing for natural ventilation to be mediated. "These operable elements enable the architecture to respond continuously to changing conditions, creating shifting patterns of light and gentle airflow throughout the day," said co-founder Thi Anh Nguyet Tran.  ### Interior Continuity and Material Transition The bedroom areas are finished in more **neutral pale plaster**, while the bathroom and kitchen spaces feature small terracotta tiles, with the whole interior unified by pale tiled floors on the ground floors and wooden floors above. "This facade becomes the project's signature moment: a distinctive yet humble interface between the home, its occupants, and the surrounding laneway, quietly demonstrating how local materials and craftsmanship can shape a living, breathing architecture," Tran emphasized.  ### Context and Inspiration Other homes in Vietnam recently featured include Kho Rèn House in Hue by M+TRO Studio, which is also sheltered by a facade of perforated brickwork, and the Earthenware House, which Naqi & Partners designed as a row of terracotta pots. Terracotta Breath stands as a testament to how **sustainable design principles** can be beautifully integrated with local materials and cultural considerations to create homes that truly connect with their environment and occupants.]]></description> <author>contact@designremotejobs.com (DesignRemoteJobs.com)</author> <category>architecture</category> <category>sustainable</category> <category>vietnam</category> <category>terracotta</category> <category>ventilation</category> <enclosure url="https://static.dezeen.com/uploads/2025/11/terracotta-breath-home-vietnam-live-out-studio-hero_dezeen_2364_col_0.jpg" length="0" type="image/jpg"/> </item> <item> <title><![CDATA[Record-Breaking $31.4 Million Hippopotamus Bar Sells at Auction, Redefining Design's Value]]></title> <link>https://www.designremotejobs.com/article/record-breaking-314-million-hippopotamus-bar-sells-at-auction-redefining-designs-value</link> <guid>record-breaking-314-million-hippopotamus-bar-sells-at-auction-redefining-designs-value</guid> <pubDate>Thu, 11 Dec 2025 19:00:24 GMT</pubDate> <description><![CDATA[**French designer François-Xavier Lalanne’s *Hippopotame Bar, pièce unique* (1976) sold for a staggering $31.4 million at Sotheby’s on December 10th.** This sale not only smashed its pre-sale high estimate of $10 million but also set the highest price for the artist at auction and the highest price ever achieved for a design work at auction, with all prices including fees. The final price was the result of an intense 26-minute bidding battle at the New York auction house, involving seven bidders. This event underscores the **growing popularity of design** in the art market, highlighting how functional pieces are being recognized as significant artworks. *Hippopotame Bar, pièce unique* was part of the Schlumberger Collection, belonging to French-born oil heiress and longtime Houston resident Anne Schlumberger and her family. Schlumberger commissioned the work in 1976, making it one of Lalanne’s earliest and most significant explorations of the hippopotamus form. This intimate collaboration yielded the only example executed in hand-wrought copper. Schlumberger died in April 2025. François-Xavier and his wife, Claude, are often referred to as **Les Lalanne**, a design duo known for their whimsical, surreal sculptural furniture and fanciful bronzes. Blending animal forms with natural motifs, their work turns everyday use into playful artworks. The design duo gained recognition gradually. In the 1980s, they only caught the attention of the French. However, by the 2000s, the designers had finally gained the attention of international collectors, and that interest continues to rise today. François-Xavier’s previous artist record was held by *Rhinocretaire I* (1964), another sculpture containing a bar, which sold for $19.4 million at Christie’s in 2023. In June, a similar piece came close to the record, when *Grand Rhinocrétaire II* (2003) fetched $16.4 million at Sotheby’s. This followed a sale dedicated to the designer, which fetched $59 million at Christie’s in October 2024. Claude’s auction record is held by *Très grand choupatte* (2014), which sold for €4.9 million ($5.3 million) at Christie’s in 2023.]]></description> <author>contact@designremotejobs.com (DesignRemoteJobs.com)</author> <category>auction</category> <category>design</category> <category>sculpture</category> <category>lalanne</category> <category>record</category> <enclosure url="https://d7hftxdivxxvm.cloudfront.net?height=630&quality=80&resize_to=fill&src=https%3A%2F%2Fartsy-media-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com%2F5SBkkgfFcnhVuMcvesyeYw%252FM.jpeg&width=1200" length="0" type="image//"/> </item> <item> <title><![CDATA[The Drama's Ingenious Film Promo: How Zendaya and Robert Pattinson's Fake Engagement Redefines Poster Design]]></title> <link>https://www.designremotejobs.com/article/the-dramas-ingenious-film-promo-how-zendaya-and-robert-pattinsons-fake-engagement-redefines-poster-design</link> <guid>the-dramas-ingenious-film-promo-how-zendaya-and-robert-pattinsons-fake-engagement-redefines-poster-design</guid> <pubDate>Wed, 10 Dec 2025 19:00:26 GMT</pubDate> <description>< *(Image credit: A24)* ## Fan Reactions and Design Impact "Are we finally moving past floating head posters? Is it finally happening?" one relieved fan wrote. "Why does it just look like Pattinson and Zendaya, it looks like a picture from an **Instagram** feed, not a movie," another fan questioned. Others were a little too convinced by the actors' chemistry, with many asking what 'Spiderman' (Zendaya's fiancé, Tom Holland) would think. One fan even came to her defence, writing, "Zendaya is married, this other guy is too close." Personally, I love this new nonchalant take on poster design. The candid, undone feel is delightfully refreshing and clearly quite immersive for some, making it a great **guerrilla marketing** example.
