| The LMacTouch: Perfect Desktop for a Perfect World? Posted: 12 Nov 2008 03:17 AM CST When you think “modern computer,” you think size, portability, functionality, and case aesthetics. What else? The LMacTouch has the good stuff. It’s got a touch screen, major-ly adjustable screen, green features, and it’s pretty! Why isn’t this a production model? Designer Mayyen Chan makes it simple:
A few questions: 2. Why hasn’t Apple made a model with these capabilities yet? 3. Does it come with a keyboard, or do I have to spend a months pay on one again? For crying out loud! A keybord! They don’t make em like they used to. That turned into more of a comment than a question. On another note: any [keyboard] suggestions? Also: be sure to view the video for a full walkaround.

| Posted: 12 Nov 2008 02:05 AM CST Do you want to take the ultimate lunch break? Forget the Gehry’s tad-overdone (sorry) Conde Nast cafeteria in New York City; head to Bangkok to the Octospider. It is a corporate cafeteria that elevates the act of eating to new heights (ouch these puns hurt, I am truly sorry). Suspended over the water with delicate concrete and steel legs, the cafeteria has three wings that spread out, giving each seat a view in every direction. It’s designed by Exposure Architects, based in northern Italy. Designer: Exposure Architects                 |
| Where Have All the Collapsables Gone? Posted: 12 Nov 2008 02:05 AM CST A time-honored challenge. An elegant design solution. The Fil Quadrat Design Team brings us the NewFuTi for dining and after-dinner coffee. Collapsable to two configurations, the NewFuTi is good for more than just the diner on the go: it’s togetherness in both forms makes for a fitting bit of furniture in any persons living situation. Wood metal and screws make for an inexpensive (maybe) piece of furniture while it keeps the aforementioned elegant look. And it’s foldy! Designers on the Fil Quadrat Design Team collapse:

| 3D Wall Coverings: is the Cost Worth the Payout? Posted: 12 Nov 2008 02:04 AM CST For those times when you want more than just paint on the walls; more than just wallpaper! When you’ve got nothing better to do than dust your 3-D wall all day and stare at the bright colors, yes, there is Paperforms Flow! The wall solution for the design crazy person. Made of 100% post and pre-consumer waste paper. MIO with the green feel?
Would you? This reminds me of that popcorn stuff they used to spray on the ceilings of houses in the late 1980’s. Impossible to clean! but looks so good when it first goes up. Designer: Jaime Salm with MIO        |
