Built literally on Lake Huron in Ontario, Canada, by MOS Architects, Floating House is a private dwelling produced in such a way that it is unaffected by the lakes' drastically varying water levels. From month-to-month, year-to-year, the house adapts to the water level change by floating atop of a structure built atop steel pontoons. "Using traditional construction processes would have been prohibitively expensive; the majority of costs would have been applied toward transporting building materials to the remote island. Instead, we worked with the contractor to devise a prefabrication and construction process that maximized the use of the unique character of the site: Lake Huron as a waterway.
Construction materials were instead delivered to the contractor’s fabrication shop, located on the lake shore. The steel platform structure with incorporated pontoons was built first and towed to the lake outside the workshop. Www.mos-office.net. The Humble Pizza Box: Masterfully Redesigned - Design - GOOD - StumbleUpon. Kyocera unveils flexible, kinetic OLED phone concept – Cell Phones & Mobile Device Technology News & Updates. Although we all come from the humble screens of clamshell and candy bar mobile phones, touchscreen smartphones like the iPhone and the Motorola Droid are starting to spoil us.
Now, we pretty much expect a cell phone to have a 4.3 inch display. It’s an interesting turn, actually. Up until a few years ago, everyone wanted their phones to be smaller, but a phone can only be so small until it becomes unusable… especially touchscreen phones. To fit the biggest display on a phone possible, clamshells became sliders, and then sliders lost their keyboards. That’s not a bad solution, but it means that smartphones tend to be bigger and clunkier in our pockets than perhaps we’d like them to be. If touchscreen smartphones could go clamshell, though, what then? Kyocera’s latest concept phone was recently unveiled and gives a glimpse of just that future.
Unfortunately, it’s not a touchscreen, with the underbelly of the phone folding over to reveal a soft, rubbery QWERTY keyboard. Read more at Scene360. Superyacht-two-for-one. I know what you are thinking. It is devilishly hard to decide whether you should get a new yacht, or just get another super car. Right? A yacht is relaxing, but the car is fun. Isn't there a way to do both? Actually, there is. Swedish Gray Design has come out with the Strand Craft 122 concept. And it has a top speed of an phenomenal 50 knots. And, it comes with a built-in garage for the "Tender.
" If that is too small for you, they have also come up with the Strand Craft 166. It is 166 foot long, can retract the flybridge and radar mast for a more streamline style. There are five double en-suite staterooms, each equipped with 52 inch Bang & Olufsen TVs, top of the line sound systems, LED mood lighting and an iPad control and information center. And it is capable of a cruising speed of 30 knots with a top speed of 40 knots. So there you have it. Follow: 42Concepts. Resource Furniture: Italian-Designed Space Saving Furniture.
TetraBox Light. Liquid to Light Designer Ed Chew takes a green step in the right direction with the TetraBox lamp, a light object made from discarded drink packets that would have otherwise ended up in landfills already packed to the brim. The design is achieved by unfolding the packets and refolding them into hexagonal and pentagonal sections that are then pieced together to form a geodesic sphere or any other desired shape. Here, the Epcot-like ball makes an attractive overhead light and casts an impressive web of shadows and shapes on the surrounding space. Designer: Ed Chew. Magnesium injection cycle. Magnesium Injection Cycle (MAGIC) is an engine design currently under development by Mitsubishi Corporation and the Tokyo Institute of Technology which uses magnesium and water to generate power.[1][2][3] The engine also makes use of solar-powered lasers. Overview[edit] Output[edit] Despite its small dimensions (approx. 5 cm in diameter and 13.5 cm in height), the engine can generate a heat output of several tens of kW from which power is obtained.[3] The engine is aimed to be used in cogeneration, automobiles, ships, and many other areas.
A statement in 2006 claimed that further research is planned with the aim of commercialization in the next three years.[1][3] No updated timeline has been released. Personnel[edit] The engine development was led by Professor Takashi Yabe with the help of Professor Ikuta and others of Tokyo Institute of Technology with the cooperation of Ono Denki Seisakusho, K.K., a precision manufacturer located in Shinagawa, Tokyo.
