Posted: 16 Nov 2010 04:19 AM PST The awesome Klhip Nail Clipper is a fantastic way to clip your talons. Imagine using a 17-4PH surgical stainless blade clipper designed with better grips and new kinda physics for working! So far, the pressure to be applied to nail clippers was concentrated at the end of the stick, but with the Klhip, you need to apply it right above the blade. Effortless cutting and no-flying-nails is what you get! Delightful! Designer: Mark S. Farris ---------- |
For The Love Of Coffee – Mugs Available At YD Store Posted: 16 Nov 2010 02:29 AM PST Born in a house where tea-drinkers thrived, I was the outcast and was treated as odd moody mad-eye for loving coffee! Just to jibe everyone, I would go out and buy myself the most exclusive coffee mug in town and would savor my treat in it. This would naturally irk my mom, but me being me…I soon had a collection of quirky and snazzy mugs! Did you know that the YD Store too had some awesome coffee mugs in their collection? Here's a peek…maybe you’ll end up with an enviable collection yourself! Three cute little tykes to match your mood – Happy, Moody & Sleepy make you the Mood Mug Collection.

Posted: 16 Nov 2010 12:03 AM PST This right here is called the DSNL, aka the Day Shade Night Light, and it does exactly what it sounds like it does. During the day it blocks the sunlight, and at night, it creates light. But wait, there’s more: it’s build with two materials (mainly,) flexible solar panels and flexible organix light-emmiting diodes (OLED.) Solar power, as you can imagine, is converted from the sun and turned to electricity by the solar panels above. From there, magic. The electricity is stored then until whenever you need it inside the umbrella frame. When the switch is turned on, the OLEDs deliver a blast of light, a unique experience of light for whatever you might need. The DSNL is the shade, then the DSNL is the light. Intensity of light can be adjusted by turning the handle. Wonderful! Designers: Yang Ze-Siao ---------- |
Posted: 16 Nov 2010 12:03 AM PST This rather dank looking project is a masterpiece of our watery other-world of the ocean, called “House on the Beach” by designer Hugon Kowalski. This house is inspired by the tetrapod, that four legged beast of a beachbreaker, made to stop all on-comers. Because this shape was constructed to stop all water and alien attacks and whatnot, it makes, instantly a great sort of structure for architecture, as it defends against corrosion and dissipates oncoming waves. It both protects the coastline and makes for one magically unique place to hang out at the beach. Made as a beachhouse for those who wish to beautify the coastline at the same time as protecting it from erosion. Each tetrapod beach house has three rooms: living room, kitchen, and bedroom/bathroom. What do you think? Beautiful or terrifying? Saving the world or making it much, much stranger? Or all of the above? Designer: Hugon Kowalski ---------- |
Not to be Confused with Snitch Posted: 16 Nov 2010 12:03 AM PST This, ladies and gentlemen, is the Sweetch18, a table chair from the folks over at Cerekapery innovation lab. They’ve made this strange piece of furniture so that you can both sit in and use as a chair. Not at the same time though! You’d get squished. Instead this is for sitting around in most of the time, then say you’ve got a guest or something coming over and you need more table space, BAM, you’ve got it. This particular table chair has just won a design award in Paris and the designers will be further presenting this bit of loveliness this winter at “l’observeur du design.” Then, again it will be shown at Inno Design Tech Show in Hong Kong early december (Dec 2 – Dec 4). Very flippy. Designers: Cerekapery ---------- |
