| How To ‘Not’ Put On Your Earrings Posted: 27 Feb 2009 10:59 AM PST There’s been a lot of effort in transforming our ugly, but occasionally necessary, bluetooth headsets into something beautiful and ornamental but this headset by Ilshat Garipov almost crosses the line into complete ornament. Obviously designed for, and pulled off much better by, a woman, the piece took inspiration from the formation of a water droplet, housing a single button for receiving and ending calls. Now if only Ilshat would make something masculine for us guys; we occasionally like to look like self-important douchebags too! Designer: Ilshat Garipov

| Move Over Arne Jacobsen, There’s a New Egg In Town Posted: 27 Feb 2009 10:44 AM PST Okay, so maybe this new “Egg” chair has some ground to cover before eclipsing the Jacobsen classic, still, it’s a lovely, comfortable looking arm chair to relax and play some Xbox in. Designed by Denis Syplenko as a one-off project it does not appear to be in production. That being said, a couple bean bags and a sewing machine (or maybe just duct tape) might garner you with something of its general dimensions. Designer: Denis Syplenko

| The Skimmer, And Other Instruments of Water-borne Death Posted: 27 Feb 2009 10:27 AM PST If you’ve ever felt your life lacks that certain gut-wrenching fear of imminent impact and death, then have I got a jet ski for you. Starting out half-submerged in water, the Skimmer, using the wing-in-ground effect, achieves enough lift at 60 km/h to break from the water and at 100 km/h reaches an elevation of 1.5 meters above sea level. At this point the rider shifts weight and uses the handlebars to alternate power to the two motors in order to steer. Designer: Zapp Design
