Buckle up
July 26th, 2010
We love this safely buckle key holder by Thabto.
The key-ring buckle fits perfectly into its mate, which hangs on your wall,
keeping your keys buckled up until it’s time for you to buckle up again.
shhh it’s a secret

Austrian company Pudelskern has produced a lovely chest of draws called Mrs. Robinson.
These aren’t ordinary white chest of drawers… they reveal beautiful patterns on the inside, which bring elements of fun and colour.
Nike78
July 2nd, 2010
We love this new project by Paul Jenkins called NIKE78, based one Nike shoes.
Creatives involved will receive a brand new pair of NIKE shoes and will be asked to use
sport as inspiration to challenge their function.
Designers such as Connie Wright and Wieden+Kennedy Tokyo LAB have produced really
cool things based one their chosen shoe.
Check out the rest of NIKE78 collection.
Strum away
July 1st, 2010
We love this new stylish product called The Fingerist.
Its a new hardware accessory for the iPhone and iPod Touch that allows new levels of control and audio output for iPhone apps.
You simply attach your iPhone to the Fingerist, and you can pluck, strum or synthesize using iPhone apps featuring pianos, guitars, synthesizers and drum machines.
We like the finish of the product as the slot features a rosewood color wood grain, while the speaker section is glossy black.
It has a decent 3-watt speaker, but if you want some more juice the Fingerist does have a 1/4-inch cable jack to plug into your amp.
Disco Chair
June 30th, 2010
We love this illuminating chair by London based furniture company Kiwi and Pom.
The Disco Chair is a modern lounge chair that is strung with electroluminescent wire that is illuminated when powered.
The chair shines in a rainbow of color, and can be switched to a flash/pulse mode for a disco-style lighting effect.
Check out the rest of their cool work!!
Admiring the view
June 24th, 2010
We admire all designers and architects, and architecture in Iran took our breath away.
In legendary cities of Nishapur, Ghazni and Tabriz, due to earthquakes or barbarian invading armies,
there is still a number of very impressive buildings.
Sticky situation
June 22nd, 2010
We love Croation design collective Numen/For use, they showcased their latest creation
at DMY international design Festival Berlin 2010. They have created an incredible tape installation by setting up a custom
scaffolding construction and wrapping tape around it to create this fantastic installationinside Berlin airport.
The installation was finished within four days (approximately 160 working hours)

Step into the SALON
June 21st, 2010
Salon is a a permanent exhibition space / lounge bar at the Tribeca Grand Hotel, New York.
We love the quirkiness to the exhibition space as it has a exaggerated fantasy feel.
The Salon brings a new spin to promoting creative talent, and act as a live space for
designers to showcase their work to visitors.
Rethinking seating
June 18th, 2010
We’re all fans of Sagmeister‘s quirky work and this one does not disappoint.
The Darwin Chair is designed for dutch design company Droog.
It is constructed from a free swinging structure that is comprised of more than 200 sheets of attached prints.
Like a pad of paper, the chair offers its audience opportunities to consider its functionality
as a presentational object. as the top sheet gets dirty or tired, the user can simply
rip it off, revealing the layer below, and quickly transforming the appearance of the chair
Grand Central
June 17th, 2010
We love this piece called Grand Central collaborated between two designers, Sanna Lindström and Sigrid Strömgren.
Grand Central is an innovative expandable table that transforms from space-saving occasional table to the central piece of the room.
The lacquered plywood / MDF tabletop is divided into 22 pieces that folds out in a spectacular way through its advanced construction.
The inspiration comes from a pop-up map of New York. Check out the rest of their work.
