You are going to have basically a totally amazing time when you get your hands on this paper accessory combo. You’ve got the Magazine Hanger for one: It allows you to display the magazines you’re currently into on the wall like a coat rack, with the string and the ball at the end holding them up for easy access. Then to hold the magazines or your newspaper down to peek at, you’ve got the Newspaper Table: a dimple and a stick to get you on your way to flat reading in the waiting room pleasure!

The Newspaper Table would certainly be a welcome addition to libraries across the world. In fact, it’s so simple and nice, I’m really surprised it hasn’t been invented previous to this. Brilliance or did I.Y.Chen and I not investigate our homework enough?

And the Magazine Hanger. The Magazine Hanger has got to be my favorite way to display just such a periodical. It decorates and de-clutters, and reminds you to get rid of old mags when they’re out of date.

Reading rainbow!

Oranges And Air Coolers Have A Deep Relationship

Posted: 03 Jun 2009 12:00 AM PDT

Min Sung Kim feels there is a deep connection between an orange and an air cooler. He uses the simile of a fresh juicy one against an arid dry orange to describe the refreshing experience of his Airflow Air-Circulator Concept. The highlight of this circular cooler is the 300 degree rotation angle that circulates cool air into the room with greater efficiency. Basically, the warm air is sucked into the tube from the ends and cool air dispensed through the fills on the length of the body.

Mix Some Sound Patterns In The Batter

The physical patterns produced through the interaction of sound waves in a medium, best describes Cymatics. The Electrolux Re-mix concept seen here mixes food by using the vibrations emitted by sound frequency. It's like mixing a batter of pancakes to the beats Beethoven's Ninth Symphony or making sauce to the pulse of AC/DC. Simply hook on the digital music player to the Re-mix device and enjoy the visual treat. I guess you'll get a clearer picture after you see the awesome video after the jump.
