Cozy Cooking Stove

Posted: 26 Jun 2012 04:36 AM PDT

Angoria incorporates a new fabric surface to cooking food; it allows cooking and heating directly into a tissue, without any extra kitchenware. Inspired by the biomimetic process in a watermelon, the appliances aims to make cooking a convenience using minimum utensils and procedures. The designer explains the working process, after the jump.

“Graphene, recognized by its micrometric dimension, resistance, thermal conductivity and ability of sun power absorption, was selected as the material to generate temperature. PTFE, commercially known as Teflon, bears high temperatures, has a high index of liquid and grass impermeability and it is used as non-stick material in direct contact with food, especially in frying pans, becoming an ideal choice. With a visually pleasing texture, the trendy felt bears high temperatures and insulates energy produced by graphene, in the direction of food only. Besides that, it has a great liquid absorption capability that allows latent heat process, conducting the gradual energy loss to cool the content without any complex circuit. This means that, for an instance, when you plunge Angoria into water with a refrigerant can inside it, and then exposing it to sun, the vaporization allows the inner temperature to drop and cool the can.”

Doodle-an-AC

Posted: 26 Jun 2012 04:27 AM PDT

Functional Window AC is a lighter-side-of-life take on window ACs and the general concept of owning updated appliances. With innovations in technology and frequent design changes, most window air conditioners get outdated pretty fast. By equipping this concept with a blank sketching surface, the designer suggests that we design our own AC covers and keep them updated with doodles and current themes.

Fascinatingly Simple – Part Tre!

Posted: 26 Jun 2012 12:01 AM PDT

The latest addition to the Rising series of furniture is this unique side table by the fantastic designer, Robert van Embricqs. Like the rest of the series, the final shape was achieved with strategically placed incisions to a single piece of wood. Functional, practical, and downright beautiful, it’s a great compliment to the other pieces in the series or great as a single accent.

Not Your Average Industrial Lamp

Posted: 26 Jun 2012 12:01 AM PDT

This unusual lamp design goes to show that a little tape and cardboard can go a long way! Composed of just compressed cardboard and LED tape (along with a few other binding agents) the Amparo lamp makes for a versatile, cost efficient lighting solution that will work almost anywhere. Hang it, mount it, desk it, drop it, hold it… the list goes on! Did I mention that it’s flat-pack ready?!

Transforming Beemer

Posted: 26 Jun 2012 12:01 AM PDT

The BMW Venture concept transforms from from a urban-commuting subcompact to  racy sportster with just the press of a button. Retracted, it’s the perfect size for zipping around the city, but extending the swing arm and front wheels gives a wider stance and added stability as well as a hot-rod style front end that adds to it’s striking aesthetic. Its futuristic style has a very subtle touch of retro-style but still maintains a familiar clean, BMW feel.
