Double Laundry machine for twice the sparkle

Posted: 11 Apr 2012 01:00 AM PDT

When it comes time to do the laundry in a house or apartment complex with multiple tenants living with or near one another, the idea that they might toss all of their clothing into one machine might never occur to them. According to designer Anthony Yu, its because of this situation that we waste a lot more water than we really should be each time laundry day comes around. The solution is one of multiple tanks and a smart machine brain which knows just how much H2O you need per load.

Why would I toss my shirts in with another random person’s pants if I don’t have to? With the Lavadora laundry machine, you’ve got not just more than one separate compartment for clothes, you’ve got a smart machine with an electronic brain which can tell how much clothing you’ve got in and how much water it needs to pump out. This machine also has the ability to filter and re-use water and has a fabulously easy-to-use interface to keep your clothes washing activities as simple as possible

Triangle Towers for iOS Connected Sound

Posted: 11 Apr 2012 01:00 AM PDT

There’s always a place in our hears for another speaker design – and with the letter “L” as well as a couple of pointy triangles on your side, you’ll be set! Designer Morten Gronning Nielsen presents nostalgic technology with contemporary aesthetics in a radio made to bring the past through the future while it blasts some awesome tunes along the way. Here you’ve got the radio experience with a look and sound combination which completes the radio in a way you’ve never had before!

This tech works with Airplay for wireless streaming of music, radio, or audiobooks from your smartphone or tablet computer, or you can rock the radio right out from the center unit, no extra gear needed. That bit of glass you see there in the center is a classic tube amplifier, the triangle tower speakers connect with this system as well.

Bust these little beasts out at a cocktail party which celebrates the A ClockWork Orange aesthetic choices and yours will be a choice never forgotten!

Chairs in Love

Posted: 11 Apr 2012 12:01 AM PDT

Seattoo is a set of two identical seats that can be nested together in an unusual, interactive way. Like puzzle pieces, the two seats interlock sideways by simply pushing one into the other. Made of solid steel, each is independently strong enough to support a person by itself

Seattoo is a winner of the 2011 red dot product design award.

Designer: Ye Tao, Mingya Wei, Zhulin Shi, Yijun Zhao, and Chao Chen

Printed on the inside of each mug is a unique “connect the dots” style puzzle that the user can complete with just the last little drops of coffee and a straw. A clever design that’s sure to be a conversation starter!

Canoeing Just Got Serious

Posted: 11 Apr 2012 12:01 AM PDT

Compared to its kayaking counterpart, canoeing has seen little redesign over the years, and many would consider the activity to be somewhat antiquated. The Explorer Canoe Paddle is a twist on the classic that gives a new life to the sport, featuring a sporty looking yet functional form. A flexible blade core increases adaptive power and joint protection while a curved carbon shaft and looped grips provide more control and power transmission.
