New Bathtub

At a time when consciousness of water conservation is at an all time high, the Peak Bath provides a luxury bathing experience, using less water than other products. The design is contoured to more closely fit the posture we take when bathing, with a peak rising to fill the spaces below our knees, significantly reducing the volume of water needed for a deep, luxurious bath while creating a striking sculptural statement in your bathroom. Yes Please! Check out the rest HERE

Baby blender?

It's true that we can't articulate quite why this bothers us, but something is decidedly off about this baby bath from the UK. The Dutch-designed Tummy Tub supposedly feels more womb-like to the baby--we'd love to see those focus group transcripts--but we can't help feel that Tupperware or Rubbermaid had some undue influence here, in the same way Hallmark invented Valentine's Day to move more product.

Smoking No Smoking

Some restaurant owners in Germany have come up with a novel workaround to the smoking ban; patrons can stay inside and smoke outside through "Smoking Points" that resemble a cross between a portal and a stockade. Added bonus: it makes the smoker look like, well, a complete ass!

This stunt was for P-Mates a disposable, biodegradable product that makes it possible for women to pee standing up. To drive trial where the product was most needed (i.e. dirty public toilets), we reversed the men¹s and women¹s washroom signs at a local bar. Stepping into the washroom, women were met with signage on the floor, over the sink, the urinal and in the stall. With free P-Mate samples mounted on the signs and trial offer coupons printed on nearby toilet paper, it only took a few brave women to spark a chain reaction that spilled out of the washroom, onto the street and into neighboring bars.

How cool

How cool is this

We’ve all done it at one time or another – tried to carry one mug too many rather than use a tray. The result is predictable - burnt fingers and stains on the carpet.

So, inspired by the quintessential builder’s mug, Jon has developed an ingenious solution to this problem – mugs that link together. An elegantly formed cross on the side of each mug fits neatly into the next, forming a self supporting row of up to 6 mugs. So there’s no tray, no mess and absolutely no fuss.

Toaster design

The Radical Six Part Toaster rotates and heats the toast in single compartments. The compartments lift from the main assembly and swing open to allow toast to keep warm and crisp on its hot plates. The toaster is ideal for homeowners that are inspired by contemporary touches in their living space, making an inspiring centrepiece to at the dinner table.

Invention of the wheel

This dramatic looking mode of transportation is said to be the modern day replacement for the skateboard.
Using a single large bicycle (or I guess that would be unicycle) wheel in front and a smaller caster in the rear for steering, it lets you achieve speeds up to 20 miles per hour, simply using your own leg strength to kick off. See the video HERE

In the charming “Playground Fence”, not only are the protrusions and recessions of the fence eye-catching, but they allow for a more active interaction between those on either sides of the fence, providing seats, benches, nooks and playspaces for children.

Orikaso Folding Camping Dishes

These are really well designed. I got a look at them at a outdoor outfitters place in lexington, and they are really a great Idea. Everything folds flat, and is made of a waterproof flexible polymer.
The set shown here is the after dinner set.

What do you do after dinner on those long nights in the wilderness? Bored of counting the stars? Run out of beer and conversation? Then the (After) Dinner Set is for you. After wiping your food off on the grass (or washing up if you must), simply fold the pates the other way and play chess, drafts or backgammon whilst drinking espressos or digestifs from the espresso cups.

Here is just an image of the cup in the folding process.

Lazy tea

A porcelain teapot is put in its associated holding device where it can be swayed forward well, directed so that the tea can be easily poured into a cup without having to lift the teapot. Furthermore the holding device is able to boil up the liquid in the teapot and to keep it warm precisely on different temperatures. The measured temperatures are read at the diodes in the region of the operational controls and compared with the temperature that was manually chosen.
