Pencil Bench Cool bench made from 1,600 pencils which are individually sprung. Tavolo hi tech - Salone del Mobile 2011 - In-fiera. Futura - Auto by Nathaniel Lucero. Futura Concept I have always liked vehicles that look more animal than car- which is why I love this wild concept called the Futura 10.
The Futura models itself after the Boxfish, a cute and cuddly sea creature (if you can imagine a cuddly gill-bearing scaled vertebrate) that somehow looks more alien than fish. Don’t let those soft lines fool you though, the Futura’s body, like the Boxfish, has great structural strength and proven aerodynamics. Designer: Nathaniel Lucero. Electrolux KEWA (Kinetic Efficient Water Appliance) by Pietro Russomanno. Water Blade for Tuff Stains Scrubbing is a very important factor when cleaning dishes and this has to be done perfecto!
There’s no way around it. Keeping this in mind, Domus student Pietro Russomanno designed the KEWA concept, an acronym for Kinetic Efficient Water Appliance. Lamborghini Yacht by Mauro Lecchi. You Can Lead a Bull to Water… Period.
I’ll be the first (maybe in the world) to admit that I don’t love car maker Lamborghini. Don’t get me wrong, I understand it’s appeal… duh, it’s the ultimate super-car. But I just want to see something new- something unrecognizable! Well, designer Mauro Lecchi felt the same way, and now we’re getting exactly what we wanted. Vieria - Concept Vehicle by Gunwoong Kim & Suji Kim. Purification on Wheels Feeling like today’s electric vehicles aren’t maximizing their full potential, Gunwoong Kim & Suji Kim’s submission for the 2011 Michelin Challenge Design Showcase, the Vieria, aims to expand upon the development of electric and other eco-friendly vehicle designs by incorporating it’s own advanced air purification system to rid the environment of carcinogens and other pollutants.
The open-air intake at the front of the vehicle “inhales” smog and “exhales” clean air through the filtered outtake. On the straightaway, the insect like form maximizes aerodynamic efficiency by pulling in it’s 4 independent legs; for better stabilization the legs pivot out for serious road hugging. Designers: Gunwoong Kim & Suji Kim. Milano Design Week. What is Rolltop? Synapse Bike - Cycle Concept by Sylvain Gerber. Hubless Bike I’ve seen a handful of hubless concept bikes but the Synapse Bike goes one further with integrated electric motors to assist the rider.
The design opens up the entire bike, giving the designer control over structural elements (in this case, lack thereof). It’s minimal, elegant, slightly aggressive, but overall dynamic. Entire Xbox 360 Stuffed into LED Toaster. Smart Fridge by Ashley Legg. Smart Fridge Is Your New Recipe Card The Smart Fridge here is for those who have shunted cooking to a hobby and rely more on designer microwave meals.
The idea is to give you a fridge that is intelligent enough to come up with a healthy recipe, depending on what you stock in it. Not only that, it guides you with vocal instructions, spoon by spoon, till you dish out the perfect-wholesome meal. A touch interface door glams up the appliance, creating the desire to own a piece that’s futuristic but may not be what you’re looking for! Designer: Ashley Legg. ZzZen - Lounge Chair by Niels de Greef. Meditate On This Remember those egg-shaped Henrik Thor-Larsen chairs that were all the rage in the 60s?
Well, this is kinda like that but a tad minimal and a whole lot more nimble. Rising Chair by Robert van Embricqs. Fascinatingly Simple I have been admiring this design all day, and driving everyone around me crazy talking about it and making them check it out. What can I say? I’m fascinated by the Rising Chair! It looks more like a sculpture than a chair, and what makes this combination rare is that it’s flat-pack ready. Designer Robert van Embricqs achieved the organic form by pulling up slats cut into a flat wood surface to see how the material should naturally mold to make the seat, back, and base. Revolutio - Watch by Mickaël Chrost. Revolutio This simple and modern watch by designer Mickaël Chrost presents a new perception on time telling.
Minutes and hours are displayed on Revolutio’s rotating rings and are powered by a standard watch engine. The magnetic locking system is perfectly discreet. I’m really digging the center-less design- the loop, versus the standard circle, is an interpretation of eternity and reminds that time has no real beginning or end.
