Liquid Measure with a Precise Tilt

Posted: 29 Nov 2011 01:11 AM PST

The Angle is a handy measuring jug based on the property of liquids taking shape of their containers. So instead of keeping the jug on a flat surface and filling contents till eye-level, you can easily pour out the required measure. Basically the design features diagonal lines that indicate quantities during pouring.

The designer explains, "The measurement units relate to practical kitchen measuring systems such as a cup, a glass, or a tablespoon. Angel indicates a 200mL volume as the amount between two long diagonal markings. The volume contained by a long marking and a short one is 100mL."

Very simple and neat, I can't wait to try this red dot winning concept in my kitchen!

Designer: Umut Demirel

Radio Controlled Lifesavers

Posted: 29 Nov 2011 01:01 AM PST

Adding a dash of technology to the traditional lifesaver ring is this intelligent concept called RC – Controlled Life Buoy. As the name suggests, it is a saving ring that can be controlled by the lifeguard using radio controllers. The idea is to help make the rescue operation swifter and lessen the stress of the person in the water.

RC – Controlled Life Buoy is a 2011 Liteon Award entry.

Designers: Peng Shanzhong, Li Weilin & Ju Xinxin

Lamp is a Knockout

Posted: 29 Nov 2011 12:02 AM PST

The Light Form is more than just an ordinary desk lamp, it’s a way to personalize the unique taste and feel of lighting for every different person while simultaneously strengthening the bond between user and object. Simply punch your fist into the LED wiring to leave an impression only you could make! Though it appears imbalanced, the form of the frame was taken from Buckminster Fuller’s geometric dome and is composed entirely of triangles, making it completely and evenly weight balanced. 

Designer: Scott Young

This electric passenger tram was designed to link the Libyan cities of Benghazi and Tripoli, two areas currently plagued with traffic congestion. The tram is characterized by a simple, modern aesthetic but also takes inspiration from Libya’s cultural heritage, incorporating shapes and patterns like the moucharabieh, a common element of traditional Arabic architecture since the middle ages.

Vacuum Packed Suitcase

Posted: 28 Nov 2011 01:25 AM PST

It's quite the trend to have suitcases with an expandable hood to accommodate more clothes and stuff. However very few have stopped to consider vacuum packing clothes, to make more space. The Pumpack is one such suitcase design where it includes a pump that helps to compress clothes to make more packing room. For those who are going to complain about creases, I suggest you carry a travel iron. I for one think we need to develop this design thoroughly!

Pumpack is a 2011 red dot design concept winner.

Designers: Yejee Lee, Jongchan Mun, Seobin Oh and Woneui Hong

Pedal Your Way to Fitness and Light!

Posted: 28 Nov 2011 01:19 AM PST

The idea behind Healthy Electricity, a stationary bike, is nothing new. It converts kinetic energy into electric energy, to juice up your gadgets and maybe work small lamps etc. What's cool is the implementation of the idea and the final outcome of the bike. The sleek form makes it easy to fit into any household and tempt you enough to at least get fit and electric!

Healthy Electricity is a 2011 Liteon Award entry.

Designers: Cao Yuan, Wu Hao, Xu Wen, Xiong Luyao, Cao Wenqi & Zho Una

Public Spaces and Not So Boring Furniture

Posted: 28 Nov 2011 12:37 AM PST

The Furniture Collection by Arco da Velha, a Portuguese design furniture brand, has launched a new set of products for public spaces and and domestic environments. There’s a consistency in the minimal design which quite frankly looks better than most public space furnishings. There’s something juvenile about the way the color palette jumps off these very linear lines. It feels lighter, less cosmetic because if all this stuff were in black and white, it would look like my dentist’s office.

Designer: Arco da Velha

Cosmic Time

Posted: 28 Nov 2011 12:29 AM PST

One of our favorite companies ZIIIRO just released the latest star from their cosmic laboratory called “Celeste.” The instantly recognizable design combines 2 previous concepts into one so the hour and minute demarcation is more clearly defined. It works by two overlapping transparent discs to create a fluid gradient as time passes. It comes in 4 different colors but 2 are already sold out. Why am I not surprised. This is a hot item which is also why it’s included in our holiday gift guide.

Designer: Robert Dabi
