Portion Control with Meat

Posted: 07 Apr 2011 06:24 AM PDT

The original intent of PerfectPlate is to promote vegetarianism, however I want to look at in a different light. With the unique shape and design of the plate, it's impossible to pile it high with food. This means eating smaller portions, perhaps a great tool for progressive weight loss. Yea, I'm battling the bulge on a daily basis and such mind tricks do help!

How Bare Can a Mouse Get?

Posted: 07 Apr 2011 06:23 AM PDT

Very basic and minimal if you leave it to Vrouyr Joubanian! He's designed the Void mouse with bare-minimums; only one button that functions all as right, left, middle clicks and scroll. The hollow, wireless mouse sports uneven thickness ranging from 4 to 10mm and all the electrical parts are contained in the bulky bottom. It looks ergonomic enough for us to give it a try, what do you say?

Utensils That Just Hang Around

Posted: 07 Apr 2011 06:21 AM PDT

Muuto's new cooking set and salad servers combine form, function and craftsmanship. The elegant wooden tools are precisely designed and crafted for a sleek modern look. The innovative extrusion cut in the back of the cooking set HANG AROUND lets you work freely in the kitchen, while your utensils hang out on your pots or pans. TOSS AROUND, the salad servers, tell the same story of craftsmanship used for centuries but with contemparty design and modern ergonomics.

These are the first Muuto products by KiBiSi – a Copenhagen based idea-driven industrial design firm founded by Kilo Design / Lars Holme Larsen, BIG Architects / Bjarke Ingels and Skibsted Ideation / Jens Martin Skibsted. The recently founded design studio has numerous International awards between them. KiBiSi partner Jens Martin Skibsted explains the idea behind Hang Around and Toss Around: "We were originally inspired by Bhutanese crafts. Their wooden everyday tools seem to have layers of stories and thoughts. We combined that with our Scandinavian design heritage and our idea-lead, no fluff design philosophy – and this little invention was bread. "

One to Five

Posted: 07 Apr 2011 01:15 AM PDT

One to Five is an installation comprised of ten previously unreleased chair designs by Viennese designer Thomas Feichtner. All of these are presented as printouts of 3D models done at a scale of 1:5, and they will be shown at the Salone Internazionale del Mobile 2011 in Milan's Zona Tortona district. This is an experiment which seeks to present designs not as finished projects but rather as processes which have yet to be concluded allowing producers to become part of the development process almost from the very beginning.

Revolutio

Posted: 07 Apr 2011 12:02 AM PDT

This simple and modern watch by designer Mickaël Chros presents a new perception on time telling. Minutes and hours are displayed on Revolutio’s rotating rings and are powered by a standard watch engine. The magnetic locking system is perfectly discreet. I’m really digging the center-less design- the loop, versus the standard circle, is an interpretation of eternity and reminds that time has no real beginning or end.

Backpack Creates Renewable Energy

Posted: 07 Apr 2011 12:01 AM PDT

Unlike my camping buddies who will poke fun at me for this, I will always bring along every electronic device that I can fit in my pack. Gotta have the phone, the camera, and I’ve even been known to sneak a laptop on occasion. Problem is, the batteries are dead within the day and I inevitably regret the extra weight. The Alppac is for anyone like me. It uses a suspended load mechanism to produce an electrical charge when the user is walking. Plug in your phone, iPad, or any other electronic device and get a renewable, clean charge between stops.
