| Posted: 28 May 2013 08:52 AM PDT In the shift to electric vehicles, there's one thing we're really going to miss about our old combustion engines… the sound! Whether your tone of choice is a low grumble or high-pitched whir, the voice of the vehicle has forever been a deciding factor for new car owners. While it doesn't offer a solution to maintaining the sound experience, the Spectra concept vehicle's unique form was inspired by the Doppler effect created by today's F1 cars. From the fairings to the fenders, the shape represents the observable sound frequencies in the F1's spectrum, paying homage to the soon-to-be-extinct combustion engine. Designer: Teeravit Hanharutaivan

| Posted: 28 May 2013 01:11 AM PDT The purpose of a clock is to tell the time, and if we have one that portrays that in a very simplistic way, then it's like Dieter's good design. The TIME-LINE is a clock that reduces its expression to a single clock hand and a small LED light. Ironically the design process for this clock began with the idea that we need to make time simple. The TIME-LINE only has an hour hand and its shape is linear and simple, and there is no surrounding frame. An LED light point set within the central circle rotates to indicate the minute. A GPS timer in the body constantly rotates the hour hand and the minute indicator so as to show the present time. Fixed and detachable magnets on the base allow the clock to be attached to any object. Designer: You Haeyon

It also eliminates all danger that outlets pose towards children. Its associated components are molded from recycled PVC plastic. Bolt USB Outlet is a 2013 iF Design award – concept design entry.

| Posted: 28 May 2013 01:01 AM PDT The Spring Charger adds a spring to the plugging wire so that you get extendable cords in a jiffy. Most charging wires are straight and long and have no sense of flexibility. The Spring Charger has a line much longer than any and yet is portable and handy. Spring Charger is a 2013 iF Design award – concept design entry. Designer: Park So-hee

| Posted: 28 May 2013 12:01 AM PDT Aerio is a nifty gadget that aims to provide users with information about their environment’s air pollution. Paired with the user’s smartphone, the device transmits data to a central network with other devices also giving real-time air quality updates. More than just a sensor, it also brings awareness to the user’s own individual carbon footprint in hopes of encouraging eco-conscious behavior throughout the day. Designer: Nikolas Ethore

| Posted: 28 May 2013 12:01 AM PDT While the majority of modern smartphones focus on more, more, more to increase productivity, the CELs phone was developed from the belief that less distraction and “uni-tasking” rather than multitasking is the key to being productive. It focuses on just 4 basic functionalities: music, photography, fitness, and communication. What it lacks in apps (even internet!), it makes up for in a cool, quirky aesthetic and a straightforward, user-friendly interface! Designed to be rotated at the middle, it has two sides, one with the Cell phone interface and other with the music player. By rotating the either side of the device the user can turn on the camera or the fitness device. While using any of the four (i.e. cell phone, music player, camera or the fitness device) the other functions of the device are put on standby mode. It encourages uni-tasking to build a more focus and productivity. Designer: Sankalp Sinha
