Have An IDEA? Submit it & Win it! Posted: 01 Dec 2010 04:32 AM PST Someone rightly said that Design is a mix of craft, science, storytelling, propaganda & philosophy. All it takes to tie all this up into a great presentation is a worthy platform. And that platform is the IDEA Design Awards. For over 30 years, IDEA has recognized design excellence in products, sustainability, interaction design, packaging, strategy, research and concepts. This year, it's time for you to shine, it's time for you to tell your story…. register here to enter the 2011 International Design Excellence Awards! Details inside… The IDSA IDEA awards have been called "the Oscar's of design" …and for good reason! IDEA award winners are deemed such shining examples of design excellence that for the 2nd year in a row the Henry Ford will house IDEA winners in its private collection! This year Yanko Design is one of the Media Partners and want you to participate and WIN! IDEA awards bring international recognition, accolades and attention in a climate where differentiation and a spotlight can make or break a design or a career. The timelines and Fees can be found here, and the registration can be done here. Here is a look at some 2010 IDEA Winners that were featured on Yanko Design.

One Hundred Micro Cassettes Is All I Need! Posted: 01 Dec 2010 02:27 AM PST Question: How do you make a unique lamp? I'm talking about the Tape Lamp; gorgeous, snazzy and so DIY, yet classy! Fitted with a 40 watt Vida Large G-16.5 Globe A tribute to the 80's kitsch style, the lamp is a steal at $35! Designer: Transparent House, Inc ---------- |
Posted: 01 Dec 2010 02:02 AM PST You don't need to be in Bodh Gaya to attain enlightenment, a relaxation Tree Bench built in white corian and peaceful surroundings is all that one requires! Talking of this bench, its one that weaves in natural elements like trees, soil and grass with modern amenities like a bench and lighting. Adaptable to a number of settings, I'd like to see one on my street! Designer: Marko Vuckovic ---------- |
Posted: 01 Dec 2010 12:03 AM PST So you’ve got a pair of shoes for the sun, right? Do you have a pair of shoes for when it’s raining so much you’ve got to slosh through the puddles? Oh you do? Well how about a pair of shoes that are BOTH of those things upon a quick adjustment? A cool designer by the name of REN Fangying has a design like that. It’s called “Sunny and Rain” and it works both as a pair or regular shoes AND as a pair of overshoes, whichever you need! Hey guess what? These could be super fashionable. Just give a pair to Lady Gaga and watch them explode. Michelle Obama could do with a pair as well if you’d like the world to love em. And me? You’d give me a pair and the whole world would say uh oh, I missed the fashion craze if Chris Burns already has a pair! Designer: REN Fangying ---------- |
Posted: 01 Dec 2010 12:03 AM PST How would you like to have one giant mug for everything you ever drank your whole life? How about all your soup? You know what gigantic mugs are most iconic in my mind? Those ones at Central Perk. You know the ones. These ones are much different, aside from the size. This one’s got a giant handle with which you can remember your soup tasting of yore. Taste everything your heart can possibly desire. Look at this giant cup! Comes in several colors and with the Slurp Mug name printed on the side. This is another loveable design as presented by DEDE DextrousDesign, a group that’s served up several tantalizing designs for us here on Yanko Design over the past few weeks. Check em all out!

Posted: 01 Dec 2010 12:01 AM PST Here’s a watch which shows not only hours and minutes, but seconds (like any good watch should) and days and months as well. And not only that, this watch, called Orbit, changes color from transparent to black inverted depending on the time of day, and it works as a bedside clock when it’s off your wrist as well. Lookie! Gravitational sensor! Each of the strips along this band represent month, day, hour, minute, second and rotate a different but constant speed. Fantabulous! Each movement of the five courses, because they’re constant but different, reveals an aesthetic quality not often seen in a clock. Designer: André Sheydin ---------- |
