Bike Power! Posted: 17 Aug 2012 09:17 AM PDT Two words: automatic shifting. But that’s just one of the things that makes the Hercules Topgear-S bicycle the perfect urban commuter of the future. No more fiddling with manual gear shifting, just touch and go. A contactless dynamo is integrated into the front wheel system to recharge the battery which powers the quick-shifter, headlights, a horn and even turn signals that are cleverly placed at the ends of the handle bars. Better yet, there is a USB port to charge your cell phone while you ride! Designer: Harikrishnan.P.K - Yanko Design Timeless Designs - Explore wonderful concepts from around the world!

Time To Wake Up! Posted: 17 Aug 2012 06:16 AM PDT The adorable Sub Morning is quite a quirky way to wake up in the morning! The dang thing actually requires you to submerge it in water in order to shut it off. The crisp display and added advantage of being a submarine, makes it more of a bath-time toy than an alarm. Oh well, ducky will have to go if you want to play submarines in your bathtub! Sub Morning is a 2012 iF Design Talents entry.

Mobile Living With Glam Posted: 17 Aug 2012 05:37 AM PDT Monohedron is a prefab house that is mobile and suits almost any environment or climate. The idea is to move away from the predictable comfort of a brick and concrete home to something more versatile as this. With the options of adding layers of floors as per needs, the concept of your dream home takes on a whole new meaning. Customized and prefab are two words that don't usually gel together well, but looks like this mobile home has sort of nailed it.

Oddly Adaptive Seating Posted: 17 Aug 2012 12:01 AM PDT The Strucchair approaches modern seating design from a different angle; it aims to fit into irregular, ever-changing environments rather than traditional settings. The unique adaptive structure consists of several kinetic units held together by rubber hinges. Together they form two quadrilateral prisms that move independently to create a balanced and comfortable surface no matter how irregular the terrain might be. Confused much!? Don’t worry… there’s a vid to explain it all! Hit the jump to watch! Designer: Dora Medveczky - Yanko Design Timeless Designs - Explore wonderful concepts from around the world!

Smart Streetlight Posted: 17 Aug 2012 12:01 AM PDT Smart design meets urban light in this minimal LED street lamp design by Igor Solovyov. The steel and aluminum-cast lamp reaches upward with just a slight curve at the top; enough to cast a bright light to the sidewalk without overly-obstructing the view of the sky above. A cluster of large and small multidirectional LEDs ensure light is dispersed as efficiently as possible to the area below.  Designer: Igor Solovyov - Yanko Design Timeless Designs - Explore wonderful concepts from around the world!
