Interactive Barbecue Bible Sharpens Knives and Lights Fires

Barbecue Bible 1

No book can adequately teach you the art of grilling, but The Bible of Barbecue can at least offer you practically everything you need to get started. Open the wooden cover – which acts as a cutting board – and you’ll find a range of tools and materials including aluminum foil, an apron, a serving tray and even a surface for sharpening knives.

Created to promote Tramontina’s new line of cooking tools, the massive book is divided into three chapters. ‘Starting’ includes a slab of charcoal that you can break up into pieces, a sheet of fire-starter paper, and a page folded into a stiff fan shape to encourage the flames.

Wrap up baked potatoes with the aluminum foil, crinkle up a piece of paper coated in salt to season your steak, and then set out the serving tray in anticipation. A placemat, kitchen towel and parchment paper for wrapping up meat are also included.

But the book is more than just a kit of grilling accessories – each page is lovingly designed with a unique typographic treatment. The Bible of Barbecue was produced in small quantities and gifted to master barbecue chefs, but a simplified version will be released to the public.

Feeling creative? This lamp lets you choose how it looks, changing as often as you like based on your mood and the image you want it to convey. Created by designer Laura Modoni, the Filo lamp consists of a wooden ring holding curved wooden sticks that easily slide to change position.

According to the designer, the lamp is eco-friendly and energy efficient. Inside the ring of sticks is the latest LED technology, the result of years of research by the Microelectronics Research Group at the University of Padova.

The lamp can evoke different feelings or represent different styles gracefully and easily just by adjusting the position of the curved sticks. No matter how you choose to style it, though, it is an artistic piece of functional art that can transform a room into a display of your own personality.
