| Posted: 03 Apr 2009 05:31 AM PDT Redundant is one word that Clover does not comprehend. You can customize this "eco-sensitive" mobile phone with four different module interfaces that keeps it upgraded with the latest in technology. The modules being vision, location, sound and sensor, cater to your needs and can be added to the phone by developers or independently. The eco-friendly stamp of approval comes from the recycled materials that it is made of. It's been designed in collaboration with Samsung Corp Milano. The back of the phone hosts a PLCD which transforms from opaque to transparent depending upon the intensity of the juice levels. A graphical interface pops up to give you some quick stats on various things like the music you're listening to or your location. To enhance the performance of the phone, it can take on two more add-ons. The LCD add-on can be combined with each module and can work independent from the phone. The second add-on is an electronic sensor that helps you monitor your energy consumption. Designers: Jin Woo Han, Arim Kim & Faten B.        |
| Posted: 03 Apr 2009 04:23 AM PDT Ok folks are you ready for some DIY class? Today I’m gonna teach you how to upholster a sofa. Oi, Chris Burns keep that darn thread away, and LT you don’t need your sewing machine for this. Takashi, you’ll do fine trust me on this one; just follow my instructions! Ready? Take some paper, crumple it a lot, now take your sticky glue and apply it to the back of the paper. CB…DON’T STICK THE PAPER TO YOUR COMP! Do it like how my star student Tokujin Yoshioka has done, stick the paper one by one on the sofa! Simple! Designer: Tokujin Yoshioka for Moroso     |
| Posted: 03 Apr 2009 12:05 AM PDT You can either be a prude and get shocked at this post (in this case I suggest you move on to the next post) or enjoy the sensual display of the human form as it brings SEX into the industrial design world. Call it lusty, erotic or whatever you want but the truth of the matter is that sex sells in any industry, so why should ID be different! Here is a look at the ten sexiest items that display erotica effectively in ID. 10) Immaculate by Hans A Huseklepp Tell me honestly, were you looking at the prosthetic limb, or the sexy plunging neckline of this girl! Although Immaculate is a neurological prosthetic connected to the users central nervous system, it takes the woman in the picture to make you realize that an amputee can look as sexy as a runway model. 9) Puma Starck Naked Body Wear by Philippe Starck Near-naked sexiness personified! I brand the Puma Starck Naked collection as a functional yet sexy essential that reveals nothing but displays a lot of skin aesthetically. I know this does not fall into ID, but I wanted to bring across the point that naked people sell a lot of clothes! What an oxymoron! 8 ) Bodylicious by Hiroshi Tsunoda Inspired by Nyotaimori, a rather controversial Japanese tradition which consists of presenting Sushi on a naked woman, using her body as a tray, Bodylicious here iterates the kinky side of mankind. Conversely, when presenting Sushi (Sashimi) on the naked body of a man, it's called Nantaimori. You eat off me and I eat off you. What could be sexier than that! Fumbling to reach out for a condom during the most sensual moment can be quite an embarrassment for both the parties. A sleeker way would be to whip out the sophisticated Love Case and impress your mate. It stores 1-2 condoms and has a magnetic slider; the provocative scene depicted in this pic further strengthens my belief that sex sells everything, even condom holders! 6) HotDoll, Love Doll For Dogs by Clement Eloy Man's best friend has his urges too, and they need to be satisfied pronto. Like we get dolls and toys for ourselves, why not a one for him! 5) NASA Interactive Sex Toy by Pei-Hua Huang There are two reasons why I put this interactive sex toy to my list. One is the obvious NASA branding and the other is that the toy can be used by both men and women to indulge in some out of this universe experiences. 4) Aloe by Discoh for Imaginarte The next time you reach out for Aloe juice or an Aloe Vera cream just remember that it inspired these folk to make a dildo. According to its creators, “Aloe gives the user the chance to choose. It´s a dildo. But visually it can also be a plant. It can be a perfect gift or even an elegant way of ending a relationship”. 3) Intimate Massagers by Philips When the Big Daddy of consumer electronics comes out with a product that is meant to stimulate, arouse, and tease, you stand up (no pun intended) and take notice. The Intimate Massagers purr seductively and encourage greater physical contact between the two of you. I'm speechless! That's coz this exhibition is bang on target as to what I wanted to convey. Tour around the MoSex (Museum of Sex) and get familiar. 1) GlowBalls Warming Light by Ashish Chaudhary We are pretty familiar with Ashish's work on YD and his Butt-On was quite wicked. However this one takes the cake! Would you have the balls to light one of these in your home?     |
| Posted: 03 Apr 2009 12:00 AM PDT I find it really funny that the guy who gave us the awesome Lounge Bar has devised a medication manager. It's like first tempting you to drink and then telling you- no worries, tank up, I've got the hangover pills ready for you to pop! The Braun Clever Care Medical Coach not only stores all you medicines, but also syncs in your medical records and prescriptions straight from the doc's office via GSM or Internet. It also provides a database to hold all medical records for the entire family. Individual records for vaccines, screenings, visits to dentists, medical appointments etc. are earmarked on the built in calendar. You can set reminders for daily medical doses as well schedule future appointments or reminders via the system. In short this medical nanny stores all your medicines, archives medical history for you and the family plus reminds you to take your pills. Neat!
