Diamonds: Hard as Aerogel

Diamonds: Hard as Aerogel

Diamonds are as useful as they are beautiful. They coat our blades, sharpen our tools, and convince women way out of our league to marry us. Researchers have now managed to construct a diamond aerogel 40 times as dense as air. Continue reading

The First Electric Lamborghini

While Tesla is still the head of the class in terms of electric super cars, there are plenty of auto-enthusiasts and Lambo devotees who still don’t have an alternative green vehicle to add to their luxury car collection. Designer Andrei Avarvarii designed the Lamborghini Minotauro as a smooth and voluptuous green alternative to the angular and sharp design of the Lamborghini Reventon. The Minotauro is powered by a Li-Tec flatcell battery pack located in the rear and a KERS system... Continue reading

The Clean Way to Draw on Your Walls

Anyone with kids knows that all that’s required for disaster to strike is the time it takes for a quick run to the bathroom. Turn your back on your kids for three minutes and they WILL make you pay. If every child had the ability to paint beautiful murals, wall drawing wouldn’t be such an issue to me, but that’s not the case. Not by a long shot. A wall covered in crayon scribble isn’t exactly my idea of fine... Continue reading

Taking a Fresh Look at Jewelry

You’ve worn it all over your body all of your life. Fingers, wrists, ears, nipples. Jewelry. So common among both men and woman that without it the world’s economy would sink into a diamond-filled abyss. What we’ve come to know as “conventional” jewelry really wasn’t always that conventional. It takes time for normalcy to kick in. Imme van der Haak takes a fresh look at the way we wear jewelry and body accessories, using gold-plated brass to create new ways... Continue reading

Tunnel Furniture Lets You Bury Your Head in the Fabric

There are times where most of us just want to bury our heads in the sand like an ostrich. If we can’t see you, you can’t see us. Unfortunately for people using the Tunnel Chair, people can see you, and you look ridiculous. The Tunnel Chair by Noga Berman creates little nooks and crannies capable of housing various body parts. Theoretically you can just stick your whole body inside of the chair, but it’s much more entertaining for everyone else... Continue reading

Rethinking the Form Factor of DSLR Cameras

Since cameras became a portable medium, the form factor, aside from size differences, have remained relatively unchanged. With the new compact hardware and constantly increasing quality, is it time we started to rethink the form factor of the DSLR camera? Yaniv Berg takes a fresh look at the way we interact with our cameras with his periscope-styled handheld designed for shooting from the hip. Many photographers have taken on the challenge of shooting from the hip in order to gain... Continue reading

A Mask of Photo Booth You

You know how you can use Apple’s Photo Booth app to take some crazy-ass photos of yourself using the various effects? Designer Mark Pernice had the bright idea of creating a mask representing one of the photos taken using Photo Booth and then somehow magically using the app to recompose himself while wearing the mask. Or something like that. I know, it sounds tricky. But let the master himself explain it: Using Apple’s Photo Booth application as inspiration, the idea... Continue reading

Sliding PSP Concept

Designed by Nick Kim, this Sliding PSP concept incorporated a retro aesthetic with modern mobile practicality. The sliding console controls hide the display when the PSP isn’t in use, so there’s a reduced worry of screen scratching and probably less smudging too. What I really like about this is that it’s probably even smaller than the original PSP design. Smaller = easier to carry around. Anything that reduces the size of handheld consoles is good.

Making Out in Public With Instant Personal Space

I’ve never been one to shy away from public displays of affection. My criminal record is proof of that. But there are some of you who shudder at the thought of even lying a big fat kiss on your hooker loved ones with strange eyes glaring at you. Veasyble creates instant personal space, cocooning you and your partner in a ruffly piece of white portability. Veasyble disguises itself as a purse so there’s no way of other people knowing what...
