Based in Paris, Tools Magazine is an annual publication that explores the fields of art, design, craftsmanship, and industry by focusing on a single manufacturing technique or action in each issue. The theme for this sixth issue is ‘To Blow’. From the traditional handiwork of glassblowers to the design history of kites, divers' breathing apparatuses, children's inflatables, hot air balloons, musical instruments, and furniture, this edition delves into the techniques of blowing and inflating. Through the analysis of iconic designs and research into historical backgrounds, it gently highlights how time-honoured techniques continue to breathe life into our everyday existence.
