Wheels Of The Truck Go Red, Amber, Green!

Posted: 25 Mar 2013 03:56 AM PDT

The Trignal is a self-charging LED Light that is fitted to a truck's wheel as a hubcap. It not only glows at night, giving other motorists fair warning of the truck’s presence on the road but also visually communicates its speed. If the truck is moving at a safe pace then the wheels glow a demure green. If the driver is being rash and tardy then it glows a bright red.

The hubcaps may not make sense on well-lit highways of the West, but I know for a fact the highways of many Asian countries can do with this hub-light system. It would probably save many lives.

The Tringal is a 2012 Liteon Award winning entry.

Docking And The Movies

Posted: 25 Mar 2013 03:13 AM PDT

Moving Moving is a unique concept that marries a docking station with a mini portable projector. The idea is to play songs as well as movies and videos on the go. I love the simple and interesting way the design has been combined. The docking station looks classy and with added functionality, it is revolutionary.

Bird Feeder, Sofas And More…

Posted: 25 Mar 2013 02:54 AM PDT

Polish designer Jan Kochański showcased his studio projects to us and we simply loved his unique take on furniture and product design. I loved the simple yet artistically developed Fiu Fiu bird feeder and the MobiUse – mass use mobile chairs made from paper pulp. Hit the jump to experience some innovative and thought provoking projects.

Designer: Jan Kochański

Clip

Clip is simple, portable and foldable coffee table, made of bended steel tubes and oak wood. The project is combination of minimal structure and maximum functionality. The frame was inspired by a paper clip; table top can serve separately as a tray.

Radar

Radar is a visually attractive alternative for cloth dryers. It is constructed out of bended steel tubes and each part can be rotated separately.

Fiu Fiu

Fiu Fiu is a foldable bird feeder made of PP foil. It can be easily shipped in an A4 envelope and quickly assembled in few moves.

Spring

Spring is a bracelet available in two different sizes and colors (red, grey sparkle). Made with laser sintered nylon or alumide, it features a complex yet charming “spring” shape, suitable for both men and women.

MobiUse

MobiUse is an armchair designed for mass usage. It is made of paper pulp and can be used in and out doors.

Cloud

Cloud is light soft and sensitive and is in constant and slow motion, because of the hot air provided by hairdryer. Cloud is made of delicate foil. The project is about searching for minimal gestures that can define space, and looking for border between interior and exterior.

Knot

The Knot armchair is made of fiberglass rope and synthetic resin. The rope wrapped around solid shape creates chaotic and light structure.

Pufff

This design is a result of experiments with sheet materials. The armchair is formed out of two pieces of PP foam and the biggest challenge was to design a rigid structure out of a relatively soft material.

Cocoon

Cocoon is a hammock made of PP foam and synthetic fabric. The design can transform from open hanging bed into a zipped cozy cocoon.

Yet Another iPhone 6

Posted: 25 Mar 2013 12:01 AM PDT

One of the reasons why many people buy a fender for their iPhone is that the back surface tends to scratch pretty easily, especially in the iPhone 5. Designer Matt Hughson envisions the iPhone 6 to come designed with an integrated aluminum outer frame, which creates a protective lip for the front & back of the phone. This provides improved protection for your screen & camera.

The cut away in the upper left corner gives the phone an added functionality in the form of a slot. This gives the user an attachment feature as well as lock-ability. The main screen maximizes the available space allowing for more wide screen view-ability.

Thermo-electric Kettle For On The Go

Posted: 25 Mar 2013 12:00 AM PDT

The Thermo-Kettle is an electric water kettle plus thermos, which is compact and can carry around 1 liter of liquid. It is the ideal companion for your travels and is the perfect combination of a thermos and a cordless electric water kettle. You can use the cap of the kettle to brew your tea while the thermos keeps liquids warm. For a person who like to make their own cuppa joe, this is the ideal solution for me!
