Community Water Bottles

Posted: 20 Jul 2011 01:50 AM PDT

The WaterStation is a refreshing new take on water filters that we find at food courts and supermarkets. Generally the dispensing machine allows you take water by the glasses. This new redesign includes water bottles that you can take to your table, use and then dock it back for refilling. If nothing else, this new idea will save me countless trips to the water filter and make food courts a better experience.

Cute Miki Ears

Posted: 20 Jul 2011 01:39 AM PDT

Ear MIKI is a very cute ring that helps you manage your phone and earbuds in one go. Simply pull out the earplugs from one end and hook up to the phone/music device from the line. When not in use, slip the ring around your finger, like a cool accessory. The earbuds retract into the hub and give the Mickey effect. Sweet!

Ear MIKI is a 2011 IDEA Award Winner!

Designers: Jun Hyun Kim, Byeol Shim and Young Jun Kim

Helping Form Balanced Diets

Posted: 20 Jul 2011 12:01 AM PDT

More about highlighting an issue than developing an end-all solution, the Completing Absence collection of conceptual dinnerware is the result of an examination into the influence an object has over a user’s decisions. The stack-able ceramic plates balance perfectly only when arranged in the correct order, encouraging the user to eat recommended portions in a specified sequence while discouraging indulgence and shifting the user’s idea of satisfaction from excess consumption to task completion.

No Hassle Tea Tumbler

Posted: 20 Jul 2011 12:01 AM PDT

The Kicker Tea Tumbler, the latest concept from Kicker Studio, combines a teapot, infuser, and heater into a minimal tumbler that subtly incorporates technology to ensure that each brew yields the perfect cup of tea each time. The “low tech” feel and natural materials preserve the sensory experience of sight, touch, and smell of traditional tea making.

Fill: You fill the device with tea leaves and water. Rings on the infuser show the recommended amount of loose tea to put in, and the form itself indicates the waterline for 2 mugs of tea.
Heat: Placing the teapot in the base selects the type of tea. The light glows to let you know which tea type you've selected, and indicates that the water is heating. A whistle-like chirp will let you know it's ready to be flipped for brewing.
Brew: Flip the pot over and the timer on the top of the cap begins to count down the ideal steep time based on the tea type selected. When the light goes out, the tea is ready.
Pour: Flipping the hourglass right side up stops the tea infusion. Simply unscrew the cap and pour. The lip is designed to catch drips. As for the leaves, they'll remain in the cap for re-steeping or easy disposal.

Is He/She Thinking About Me?!

Posted: 20 Jul 2011 12:01 AM PDT

Awww! I love the idea behind this design by Christian Sallustro… Aura is an interactive lamp designed to split into two identical and symmetrical pieces that allows two geographically separated people such as family members, couples, or friends to share their feelings through light signals. The user’s physical interaction with the lamp’s surface translates wirelessly to its counterpart with varying expressions of light that let the user on the other end know you are thinking about them!
