Beauty Lies In A Hard Drive

Posted: 07 Dec 2010 01:00 AM PST

Apple kinda kick-started the revolution behind gorgeous looking computers and peripherals and it's fitting to find new-age designers striving to keep pace. The Octave is an artistically beautiful hard drive that incorporates a simple shape and airy architecture – digital information encapsulated in elegance.

It features a thin black anodized aluminum grid to increase ventilation. The polished perforated aluminum plate keeps this high-capacity drive silent and cool. A lacquered white coat, slip resistant rubber pads and a power button round out the specs. A blue LED indicates read/write status and a white LED indicates the Octave is running.

For those who require two Octave hard disks, they can be assembled vertically, with a base designed specially for this purpose.

Magic Carp-pet

Posted: 07 Dec 2010 12:30 AM PST

I love carp and optical illusions – just a little tidbit about yours truly. The Magic Carp-pet (ha!) is a rug when viewed through a specially designed glass coffee table displays carp majestically swimming across. The technical fx uses the moire phenomenon really effectively. The graphic apparition would fit beautifully in minimalist decor, front and center as it should. Seriously John Leung, can I have one? Speaking of fish, my telescope goldfish once leapt to his death but I never found the body. I blame the dog.

Designer: John Leung for ClarkeHopkinsClarke Architects

Music In My Head

Posted: 07 Dec 2010 12:12 AM PST

Here's a wild idea that takes creating music to another level! Imagine having a DAP that instinctively registers the beats of your finger-drumming, or translates your air-guitar antics to pleasurable music? Frostie, a concept by none other than Mac Funamizu, could be a revolutionary tool in making melodies from your hands. Listen to music or fashion your own remixes from your favorite artists and bands. Björk, Kanye, where y’all at!

Designer: Mac Funamizu

In The Spotlight

Posted: 07 Dec 2010 12:10 AM PST

My alter ego lives in the spotlight. He absolutely craves it. In fact if he had his own place, he’d probably buy something like the TOP SPOT designed by Cristiano of Note Design Studio for RYDENS Lighting. It’s clean, ultra modern and each light pivots to put the shine just in the right place. My alter ego is an aesthetic statement so my lights need to illuminate that lifestyle.
