The Tree Bed

Filed under: Design, Household

For those of you who truly feel in touch with nature and happen to be extremely wealthy, you may want to shell out the $15,000 for this Tree Bed. Designed by Shawn Lovell and constructed from heavy metal, you’ll really feel as if you’re really falling asleep inside a creepy-as-fuck forest. No joke. All you need now is a floor full of dead leaves and centipedes.

On the bright side, at least it doesn’t stink.

Robot Defeats Forest Fires By Defeating The Forest

Filed under: Design, Robots

Forest fires are morbid scenes. Sure, there are all of those precious woodlands which are destroyed, but more important, our homes and families are at risk. Enter the forest fire prevention robot, designed by Jordan Guelde. Smokey The Bear (or even OLE, the fire fighting beetle bot) ain’t got nothing on this tough mofo.

Using its vast array of hubless motors, and its integrated fuel system, the “Clear Cut” bot clears out vast amounts of foliage in order to control forest fires. No tree, bush, bunny, or deer is safe when this robot is on the prowl. All it understands is forest fire control and tree cutting. It also doesn’t happen to know the difference between people and trees. Muahahaha! (more…)
