Correct Tea Angle

Posted: 11 Feb 2010 02:46 AM PST

Stuff like strength, color, flavor, brew and steeping are commonplace to tea connoisseurs; plebs like me get by with simply boiling water & milk with some tea masala and that's that. Fusspots who consider the most important thing for making tea is the time to steep it, and finding profit time for strength of the tea is bothersome, can indulge in the T-cup. It's this special cup with an angle on the bottom so that it can be tipped to a side. The tipping controls the strength of tea without taking out the tealeaves or teabag from the water. The tea infuser slides to the side when you want to sip the tea.

Oh the fuss, anyone wants to share my Masala Chai?

Refrigerator That Grows Plants

Posted: 11 Feb 2010 01:35 AM PST

So you lack the green thumb but still love fresh green vegetables. Facts like light, water, temperature, space, moisture, nutrition, supervision and knowledge are all gibberish to you. No worries because Ms Hanna Sandström has been doing some homework for you, she's worked in sync with Green Fortune & Whirlpool to come up with a refrigerator that will nurture a seed to a plant. Of course it's restricted to herbs and greens, and details on HOW it would function are sketchy. All we know is that by placing lettuce plants and herbs purchased from the supermarket into the Kitchen Garden system, you can prolong their life and continue to grow them. The system automatically waters and gives light to the garden. Alternatively, by changing a few settings and some trays, it helps you grow a seed to a robust plant for chomping.

Going by the demand for organic fresh greens, this could be a hit idea!

Hanging Out With Sun

Posted: 11 Feb 2010 01:09 AM PST

Hanging out with the sun has many solar benefits; yep you can whip up a concept design that harnesses the solar energy and then juices up your gadgets. How does this Sunbox work then? It plays on this theory that on your way out to work, you hang out the device on your clothesline and when you get back in the evening, it's all charged up. Latch it on to your TV, Music System, hairdryer; basically stuff that you use only when you're back home!

You Mouse Around Here Often?

Posted: 11 Feb 2010 12:10 AM PST

This mouse is called the “G-Spot” – I am not even effin with you. Where to find the mysterious spot of pleasure’s center? With which woman will it be found? Can it be found? These are all questions. Is this spot to be found within devices? Perhaps a mouse? And if so, what would happen if that spot were found?

To where would it lead?

Any sensible person’s mousy G-Spot would lead directly to Yanko Design, of course! Oh my goodness! The shame! I’ve told you the truth. This mouse has a secret spot. When you find it, to your favorite place on the computer it’s connected to you will go, be it your email provider or your favorite industrial design blog news website. There ye shall be.

Ripple Sink Bipple

Posted: 11 Feb 2010 12:01 AM PST

The name of this bathroom collection right here is “Aqua.” Designed by one Pavel Ivanov for a future feeling bathroom for water appreciators around the world. Designed to be a full installation for a bathroom area in a home, panels, mirrors, sinks and all. The wall panels, made to be an envelope for the entire room, acts as not only a lamp, but a cupboard storage system as well.

This system’s facade also replicates the topography of the plumbing as well, making this deal a whole new-age way of looking at the full package. I’m really digging the stone-treatment of the panel above the sink most of all. And that light system!

Are You the Keymaster?

Posted: 11 Feb 2010 12:01 AM PST

Well that is nice, but I am not the Gatekeeper. What we’ve got here is the “Dreamgate Wallband” from Studio 1a.m.. What it does is cover a portion of you wall with light, easy to apply material with a lovely pattern hand-screenprinted on. It takes the position of what’s normally the headboard above a bed or a couch in a room. Easy to cut down as well, making it ideal for any space in your house.

The pattern printed on the Dreamgate is inspired by star formations and vintage tufted leather furniture. Pretty!

Material Reclaimed cork from the bottle stopper industry
Dimensions 2′H x 10'W x 1/8″D

Designer: Studio 1a.m. [ Dreamgate ($98) available @ YD Store ]
