3D Chessboard Places King At the Peak
Don’t you wish that your chessboard could sometimes be more attuned to the fantasy of an epic battle? This 3D Chessboard by Ji Lee makes your game look more like an epic massacre on a jagged mountain than a head to head clash on a simple plain. The newly designed 3D terrain adds a completely new dimension to the already classic game of chess. The King looks even less obtainable now that he is set on his own little pedestal...

Cubic Switchplate Adds A Dimension To Your Light Switch
You always hear designers talking about making objects “pop.” Making certain pieces catch your eye. The Cubic Switchplate literally adds a new dimension of a poppability, creating the illusion of a three dimensional cube-shaped light box, without the need of taking up anymore real estate than a normal flat switch. Composed of ABS plastic, the Cubic Switchplate might look like it has a depth of a few inches, though in reality only projects about 3 mm from the wall. Talk... Continue reading
Free 3D Internet Porn Is The Best Thing Ever
Looking at pictures of hot naked women is one of my favorite things to do with the internet. That’s why I’m so excited to finally see the technology for online porn evolving to include 3D pictures. Nude3D is a site I stumbled across (while doing important serious research of course) that has three-dimensional pictures of sexy nude models. It’s totally free and they also give you directions for uploading your own homemade 3D porn pics. According to Nudes3D’s guide, three-dimensional... Continue reading
3-D Tattooing
Found in France, design studio Boucherie Moderne has created some killer three-dimensional tattoos. While some claim they look “animated,” I feel that these are just standard 3-D images on skin. Slap on a pair of glasses and it’ll look like it’s popping out at you. I’d love to get one on my fist. That way, when I punch someone, I can claim they wanted to check out my tattoo. Whatever you get, make sure it’s something you won’t regret later.... Continue reading
Spinning LEGOs Produce 3-D Blobs
Three-dimensional printing is tough. That is, if you don’t make one out of LEGOs. Gene Hacker posted his creation on Instructables: a 3-D printer made out of LEGO bricks. It’s still in its infancy of development but is more than capable of rendering 3-D blobs of frosting. Unlike regular Cartesian system printers, the one Gene built operates in polar coordinates, in other words, a circular motion of printing. When asked why he didn’t build a Cartesian system printer (similar to... Continue reading
You Spilled Art On Your Table
Here’s something else, furniture called Ripple Series that imitates rippling mercury just like the Vertibral seating imitates spinal structure. It’s from designer Lee J. Rowland who happens to also be an aerospace engineer. And it shows with this out of this world furniture design that uses a three-dimensional machining process along with sheet metal to make these one of a kind desktops. It’s no surprise these tables are also astronomical in price, ranging from $45,000 to $268,000. Yowza. Impressive Lee,... Continue reading
Illusionary Speed Bumps Make You Crash Into A Parked Car
Reviving WiFi isn’t the only new thing Philadelphia is doing. As part of a city-wide campaign called “Drive CarePhilly,” which is against aggressive driving in Philadelphia, PA-100 junctions have been painted with fake speed humps. These said speed bumps offer an illusionary appearance of a three-dimensional barrier to any oncoming motorist while in fact the road is completely flat. This is exactly what drivers need in the city of Philadelphia; additional obstacles to feed their ill-temper. The catch? It only... Continue reading
