| Posted: 10 Nov 2009 03:00 AM PST Drawing inspiration from the magnificent Eiffel Tower, the Eko is a futuristic housing high-rise for Zaabeel Park, City Center in Dubai. With stats like 24 floors, 8500 Square meters of Nano Solar, 350 palms, a bar, a library and a big exhibition hall; this humble living quarters of rich Arabs and their Harem will be the envy of every Eiffel-loving Parisian! Designers: 10 Raisons Architects

| Keeping An Eye On The Milk For You Posted: 10 Nov 2009 02:00 AM PST If you have a full house, there are less chances of anything staying for long in the fridge. Meaning it will get consumed sooner or later. But if you're on your own or are the sorts who don't raid the fridge often, you can very well expect some of the contents to expire before consumed fully. Fresholling here is a handy gadget that you attach to your milk carton or opened bottle of juices, and set the expiry date on them. Like an alarm clock, it ticks off at the end of the set date, ensuring you don't consume spoiled goodies. You can set time up to a week, but do you really stock old stale stuff? Hmm….maybe I should come and raid your fridge for a change. Designer: Kim Min-Jung

| Finding the Right Furniture Piece Posted: 10 Nov 2009 12:01 AM PST So you live in a really, really expensive house. Or a really, really modern art sort of house. You’d like something odd, something nice, something wild. You’d like to try to find something made entirely out of metal, and shaped like a puzzle piece. Perfect! Here it is! The new Dondola furniture set by Defne Koz for Megaron! Made of stainless steel formed in a way that makes it suitable for the domestic environment. These furniture bits use a new welding technology that allows completely seamless volumes with “no part-lines, no visible welding lines, and soft shapes.” Folding metal for smoothness. Micro-perforations cut by lasers incorporated for subtle quality. Very pretty. Very powerful. Not something you’d want in your home if you plan on inviting small children over, but for all other instances, just fabulous. Also I’d suggest either a wood or concrete sort of floor, not so much with the carpet. You? Designer: Defne Koz for Megaron

| Posted: 10 Nov 2009 12:01 AM PST When you’re working on a house or a project that involves ladders, often you’re also working with tools that require you run a chord up there too. Lots of power tools are wireless now, meaning they’ve got battery packs, but there’s still a lot of chords in the world. What do you do to make your time up there with that a lot easier? You clip this lovely baby on up on your belt loop and roll a little bit simpler! So unless you’re already rolling pretty hard in an Asian country, you don’t know what’s going on here. The prongs on the power cords are circles in places like Isreal, where our amazing designer Rami Tareef is from. So those 3 holes there? Thats where you plug in. The bottom of this device? That chord goes down all the way to the wall. This is basically just an extension chord with a splitter and a belt hoop. Amazing? I think so. These would hella sell if they existed in my city. Designer: Rami Tareef

| Posted: 10 Nov 2009 12:00 AM PST In a creative fit of emotion, Jonathan Rowell found himself a brand new way to adjust. To turn, to spin, to tighten and un-tighten. That’s what he found himself into. The lamp that goes up and down, the lamp of many colors, designer Jonathan Rowell went for the sexual reference, “Screw Me” by name, vertical adjustment by game. All you’ve got to remember is lefty-loosie, righty-tightie. These lamps come in many colors and are made of basic materials. They work how you think they’ll work, and play how you think they’ll play. Now you take a look at this lamp and tell me: is it gonna stand up to roughness, or is it gonna screw nice? Designer: Jonathan Rowell
