| Posted: 18 Mar 2011 08:57 AM PDT L.OOD is a pedestal lamp, a concept based on creating open forms and functions from a single refined object. It’s an assemblage of recycled things like lampshades, glass vases, pots, candy dishes and fruit trays. By layering these odd bits and ends together, you create a new form with new purpose purpose.

| Posted: 18 Mar 2011 08:52 AM PDT The UNO 24 wristwatch presents the entire day at a glance! The precise hour hand completes one full rotation every 24 hours. The dial is visually separated into day section and night sections. The position of the hand corresponds to the course taken by the sun – in the morning the hand appears above the horizon, at mid day it reaches its zenith and in the evening it sinks to the horizon. A delicate line at midnight marks the day change. Once the hand crosses this line, the date moves onto the next day. A complex manufacturing process is employed to give the stainless steel case an extremely hard, jet-black surface that is normally found in professional tools. The UNO 24 has already received such coveted design awards as the Red Dot and the Good Design Award for its outstanding design quality. Another product designed German. Man, those Germans are good.

Composed of materials such as kevlar, silk, aluminum, and woven dyneema, individual pieces were designed to reduce energy consumption during production and transport, and minimize the use of materials without sacrificing style.

| Ten Innovative Ways to do the Laundry Posted: 18 Mar 2011 03:22 AM PDT Ask anyone what is the most dreadful household chore they have to do, and unanimously we hear, it's the Laundry! Washing dishes comes a close second, but we'll deal with that later. For now lets take a look at ten innovative and futuristic methods of doing laundry, with the possibility of making them a fun chore! Yeah right! 10) Air Wash by Wendy Chua & Gabriel Tan Hate messy detergents and the thought of wasting water? The Airwash is just right for you. It uses pressurized air and negative ions to do the cleaning, killing two steps in the process…soaking and drying! 9) Dismount Washer by Lichen Guo If you are crazy about personal hygiene when washing clothes, then Dismount is what you're looking for. An energy stick powers wall-mounted tubs, which are good enough to hold personal laundry only. No sharing of tub space with other people's clothes. 8 ) Aquarium Washing Machine by Djordje Zivanovic The usually perception of a washing machine this boxy thang that occupies a lot of space. The Aquarium breaks the myth by coming across as a sleek sphere of mechanical goodness! The Laundring uses pedals to drive a coaxial bi-directional rotating mechanism that generates high cleaning two-way flow to clean all dirty laundries. In short it's a better alternative to hand washing and bacterial spread amongst clothes. 6) iBasket Concept by Guopeng Liang The iBasket is a hamper, washer and dryer rolled into one. Essentially you just need to keep piling your clothes into the basket till its fully loaded. Once it's topped-up, the cleaning/drying process kicks into action; the system sends you an email or text message (via WiFi) that the clothes are ready for the next step – ironing! Arrgh! 5) Re-cycle Laundry Center by Fernanda Villanueva & Arturo Ariño Re-cycle Laundry Center is a three-unit setup with each unit holding its individual function. One unit acting as water storage and filtering tank; recycling the spent water from a previous wash, supports the green-factor. Dryer and cleaner make up the other two units. 4) Easy Living Washing Machine by David Genin In a house full of people, your own dynamics for laundry may differ from the rest. In such situations you need an individual pod to do your thang and then get going with your invincible chore. Easy Living offers you the freedom of washing smaller batches of laundry using steam technology. What this means is I get to do my laundry when I want, without having to wait for my family to load up the basket with their clothes. Sweet! Mr. Klein is personalized underwear cleaner that uses recycled water for cleaning. It's small in size and intended only for your innerwear. Something that big families should consider. 2) Individual Washer by Yali Dai Ideally we should be sorting our laundry by color and then by fabric and this translates to many loads, some of which may not be big enough to warrant an individual wash cycle. The Individual Washer solves this problem by integrating compartments instead of a single bin. This ways you can wash your clothes with proper segregations. The Lupe cuts your laundry chore by 3-steps, in one suave motion you can clean, sanitize and iron your clothes. Can't get better than this, it's my favorite! ---------- |
| Posted: 18 Mar 2011 12:44 AM PDT iMac – check; iPhone – check; iPad – check; iPod – check; looks like anything prefixed with an "i" has found its way to my desk and to organize them is thePolyply. Technically Andrew Kim should be calling it the iPoly, but never mind! The stand holds iEverything in a manner that makes it easy to charge and orient as secondary (and subsequent) displays. I love the way the keyboard can be teamed up with the iPad in the forefront and the iMac in the background. This particular stand was constructed out of acrylate polymer (acrylic plastic), birch plywood & birch. It holds an iPad, iPod Classic, iPhone 4 and a stylus.

| Posted: 17 Mar 2011 08:59 AM PDT With the million things on my to-do list I need handy Post-it reminders everywhere. I even use digital Post-it notes on my phone because I'm a scatterbrain! I like Dongyeon Kim's idea of a Post-it printer with re-usable sticky notepaper. Sync it with the phone or computer and get notes printed in a jiffy! Designer: Dongyeon Kim ---------- |
