17 Heat-Sensitive Designs
From Thermochromatic Chairs to Heat-Revealing Designs:
Meghan Young — Jan 22, 2010 — Art & Design
I’m sure we can all recall that mothering tone (or stern father’s rumble) as we each reached over to touch that pretty, flickering flame. You know, the one that scalds and warns at the same time. Well, I feel that these heat-sensitive designs are going in the right direction in terms of keeping us and our little ones safe. I must admit, though, the pretty colors that are displayed when heat is applied is just as appealing as the fire itself.
