Charger On The Seat

Posted: 19 Feb 2014 01:46 AM PST

Car chargers are so yesterday! How about a charger (USB Slot) integrated into your seatbelt? The idea is restricted to public transportation like busses, but I see so much value in the idea. Intuitively, most of us hang on to our phones and devices. At the most stuff it in our pockets or keep it on our laps. OMG, this is such a brilliant idea, please make it!

I love the structural design of the Condenser Flashlight, which is crafted from flexible materials. The reason behind this is to add flexibility, making it easy to grab the flashlight and even control the contours of the light beam. Simple physics and clever thinking!

Glossy Glow

Posted: 19 Feb 2014 12:22 AM PST

The smooth form of the futuristic looking ‘Mona’ lamps by Lucie Koldova somehow reminds me of Eva from the movie Wall – E. Crafted for ‘Brokis’, in the designer’s signature style, the tinted glass pendant features sensual curves and an elegant presence. The lamp comes in two styles, pedestal and pendant. The pendant version is suspended using proportionately sized lanyards. The juxtaposition of metal and fabric against the glossy form of the lamp brings in a seductive appeal to the lighting system. Mona lamps dresses up your light in Haute Couture.

BMW R90R – A Classic Revived

Posted: 19 Feb 2014 12:10 AM PST

I have often felt that most of the present day motorcycles are over designed. The designers’ attempts at aggressive form language usually results in the rides ending up with a liberal dose of visual clutter and makes me crave to see the honest and clean design style of café racers back on the road. And exactly for this reason, transportation designer Kévin Biolluz’s reinterpretation of the iconic cafe racer BMW R90S on its 40th birthday is interesting. One of the fastest production bikes in 1973, the Daytona Orange Beemer was a classic design and a pioneer in several fronts including the first to feature front fairings as standard.

The redesign attempts to fuse the classic with the futuristic. The stance, the low slung handle, the seating, all implies a cafe racer, yet it is seamlessly integrated into the sharp body lines of the aggressively futuristic design language.

The clean looking engine block is an evolution of the current BMW boxer. The monoshock rear suspension is done using Gimbal’s head which makes use of a shear spring. A triple clamp helps to keep the front as aggressive, simple and thin as possible.

Future Control

Posted: 19 Feb 2014 12:01 AM PST

Discovering tangible patterns and predicting future outcomes based on it has always enticed the collective imagination of humanity. From mapping of celestial movements to the weatherman’s forecast, this fascination for predicting the future has helped civilizations to make sense of the macro system that they are part of. The ‘Predictables’ project aims to bring this forecasting to a personal level.

It largely consists of two parts. The first part constitutes an app that scours for the digital data an individual and his social circle produces. This app then connects the dots to make sensible patterns and intelligently proposes future outcomes. The second part consists of systems that interfaces with the individual. The interaction with the individual is made possible using intuitive interfaces projected on a variety of surfaces using a smart watch or a desktop pico projector.

The complex analysis algorithm promises to bring prediction into a wide variety of areas in personal life including career, love and friendships. I would willingly part with my entire savings for it if I could get accurate predictions about my Gf’s mood swings. :)
