And it was just something that was important. So it's been something that's, travel's been ingrained in me since, since I was a kid or I was allowed to travel and do some things on my own at a young age. We traveled a ton when I was a kid, my parents bought an RV and we did these cool two week long trips all over the United States. And so of course it's something that translates into my interior design and, um, you know, I kind of come from this family of, of travelers. Well, you know, uh, travel is a big part of who I am as a person. And first let's just talk about your own travels and some of your favorite places and kind of, you know, how they have, You put it front and center on your website, and I think you talk about it a lot in your posts. I want to dive right in talking about travel. I'm very excited to get in and chit chat a little bit more. So I am looking forward to a great conversation. And then I also really love what you have to say. I have been watching, found and collected design on Instagram for a while, and you know, you're doing the scroll thing and I always stop at your photos. Sarah, thank you so much for coming on the style matters podcast. So with that in mind, at the end of this episode, I'm going to share with you how I'm interpreting that and a few ideas for you to use too, if you'd like, all right. She says your home should reflect where your family is from places you've been and plan to go. Once she's back home in California, in fact, front and center on her homepage, And she brings those cross cultural experiences into her work. She takes in the colors, patterns, textures, even the landscapes of the places that she visits. And her inspiration comes mostly from traveling. My guest this week is Sarah Ramirez of found and collected design. So this summer is a bit of a bummer, which is why it might be extra important right now to bring our vacations to us. And many of us have canceled our travel plans. It's mid-summer, but we're still trying to keep our distance from each other. Podcast brought to you by little yellow couch. Rolls-Royce believes a family of such powerplants could power standoff weapons and uncrewed aircraft systems, as well as provide power to directed energy weapons and support thermal management systems.Hello, and welcome to the style matters. Rolls-Royce says the Orpheus work could enable aerospace OEMs to move away from using off-the-shelf subsystems for prototype vehicles and enable the rapid development of bespoke engines. “As we look to a future engine, that’s when we start tailoring those requirements, so if we need a high-performing engine we will look at exotic materials.” But Wardell notes there are no current plans to do so. The next steps could be to optimize the powerplant through a spiral development to deliver a high-performing, flightworthy engine. “The key output of this was how quickly can you get to a product,” Wardell said. A second engine is already in testing and a third is being built. The result was a two-shaft “minimum viable product” engine that after a few tweaks was spooled up successfully. We were going back to the roots of aerospace. so it’s cheaper to build a part and test it rather than spend months analyzing it. “For an engine of this scale, the actual manufacture of the components is cheaper. “There was a shift in mindset in the team’s approach to risk,” said John Wardell, director of future defense programs at Rolls-Royce. The project will inform the UK’s Future Combat Air System Technology Initiative (FCAS TI) as well as Rolls-Royce’s own work on a family of small low-cost gas turbines that could power uncrewed aircraft systems and other small aircraft.Īs part of the work Rolls-Royce conducted with 30 small and medium-sized enterprises, it adopted new manufacturing techniques, including additive layer manufacturing and novel approaches to casting to shorten the long lead times that can often pace engine development programs. Built using what the OEM calls an agile approach, Orpheus was produced twice as fast as other engines and using just one-third of the engineering resources. The company’s Orpheus powerplant–displayed publicly at the Farnborough Airshow for the first time–was fully developed during the height of the COVID-19 pandemic in the spring of 2020 and spooled up for the first time at the beginning of 2022. FARNBOROUGH–Rolls-Royce engineers have used digital tools and rapid manufacturing techniques to develop an entirely new turbofan engine concept from scratch in just 18 months.
