Containers of Light

Posted: 15 May 2013 09:14 AM PDT

The word “flaca” is one of the only things I remember from Spanish class – it translates as proportionately lean; a perfect description for the Flaca lamp. The sophisticated lighting solution itself has minimal aesthetic impact on the wall to which it is mounted, but its diffused upward and downward illumination create a decorative play of light against the wall surface. Its perfect for highlighting above or below, or simply to create definition between spaces.

Designer: Roberto Paoli

The Assisted Move

Posted: 15 May 2013 01:11 AM PDT

The process where caregivers have to shift their wards from a wheelchair to their bed can get tedious and cumbersome. The Lady Shifting is an aid that allows them to transfer the person for their chair to the bed and vice versa, with ease. The following video explains it all.

Reusing The Food Energy

Posted: 15 May 2013 01:01 AM PDT

Food Scraps Reuse is a kitchen appliance that is a household biogas energy generator. It takes in the family kitchen waste and converts it to electrical energy and a liquid fertilizer through the process of fermentation. While the electric energy can be used to power small kitchen appliances, the fertilizer can be used for houseplants. Superb!

Food Scraps Reuse is a 2013 iF Design award – concept design entry.

Designers: Shih-Che Hsu, Chi-Ming Tien, Fang-wen Guo, Shih-Chun Wang & Yu-Tien Jheng

The Eggstractor

Posted: 15 May 2013 12:01 AM PDT

I’m totally trademarking that name BTW! Separating egg whites from the yolk can take some serious skill! That is… unless you have this modern whisk by Ivan Zhang. By slightly modifying the shape with a circular indention, the whisk catches the yolk, allowing the white to drip down. The whisk can then be used as normal to beat the eggs or stir your mixture. It makes separating effortless and better yet, keeps your hands clean of egg goo!

Earless Mug

Posted: 15 May 2013 12:01 AM PDT

As funny as the name might sound, the Earless Mug is a clever and functional twist on the everyday object that coffee addicts will appreciate! Instead of a handle (or “ear”), the design incorporates space to rest the spoon so it doesn’t poke the user in the face when drinking and eliminates the need for a saucer. Space-saving, stackable, and material-conscious, it goes to show that even the most simple of objects can be hybridized for practical improvement!

Designer: Lars Kloen
