Cellphone has no buttons to press, but plenty of holes to play with

Continuing their “design fiction”, which was first shown with The Pebble MP3 Player, nonobject in conjunction with branko Lukic presents their touchless cellphone design, Tarati. The Tarati concept design features no buttons, but holes you pass your finger through to activate the keys. Tarati “beckons” the user to reach out and touch someone, without having to actually touch the person. Well, whatever that means, we just happen to love the design. — Andrew Dobrow Link [

Typo-Vac recycles an old typewriter and makes magic

Designer Chris Demino started this project with one problem in mind. Taking an old product and turning it into a functional product. The result is the Typo-Vac, an old typewriter which has been converted into a working vacuum cleaner. Concept design has taken a turn to the recycling of old products, and some of these ideas are ingenious. The Typo-Vac has been shown in exhibitions throughout New York City and Washington D.C. — Andrew Dobrow Link [via]

Slideon MP3 Player is ghostly

I dream of MacTab: The Mac Tablet we’ve been wishing for, in concept design form

If I could have sex with a concept design, this would be the one I would choose. Simple, effective, productive, and sleek are all words which perfectly explain this MacTab tablet design concept from Yann Le Coroller. The MacTab is an ultra-portable, and we mean VERY ultra-portable looking design which integrates a tablet display with a razor thin keyboard. When not in use the keyboard acts as protection for the display, pretty much like a notebook. The keyboard stays in... Continue reading

Google Phone concept design is an obvious rendering, but cool

Yeah, this is very much a rendering of a concept that hasn’t even been announced as “official” per se. But this Google Phone concept rendering is pretty cool looking, aside from all of the rendering evidence. That Google logo on the concept design is pretty ridiculous too. I’m pretty sure Google wouldn’t be that pompous to display its logo that blatantly on the base of the phone. Good thinking though. — Andrew Dobrow Link
