| Posted: 24 Sep 2014 08:04 AM PDT Just the other day a friend of mine had her accounts hacked and meddled with. She not only lost her bank details and personal details to the hacker, she also had to go through the trauma of someone stealing her online ID. Offline ID Cards can also be compromised, which is why an additional layer of security has become a necessity we must implement. The Safe ID comes with fingerprint recognition and divulges the details only once the rightful owner uses it. Clever! Designers: Noh Young-Joon, Hyuk Choi & Suh Dong-Lim

| Posted: 24 Sep 2014 07:34 AM PDT Almost every meeting conducted has strong overtones of us being digital. While the e-notes are helpful, there is nothing collaborative about us when it comes down to sharing ideas. We need something tangible, something that we can feel while we talk through our thoughts. We need mc squares. Be it a store, home, conference room, work-space, lecture or simply brainstorming sessions, mc squares help to create a more efficient way to collaborate or keep reminders in our face.
Designed by Anthony Franco, the innovator saw the opportunity to make a board that increased all-round participation. Something fluid and functional – better than the existing options of sticky-notes, e-notes and dry-erase white boards. Having attended thousands of meetings and facilitating a number of them, Anthony's version comes as a much-needed refinement in the field of communication.
The functional squares can be used individually or collectively as a whole. They combine the use of sticky-notes and dry-erase boards; each individual square comes with a mounting bracket, multiple templates (the clear part pops off to change templates), a dry erase pen and an eraser.
The pen and the eraser are custom made to fit to the back of the mc square and the back of the board is designed with hundreds of circles, which are compatible with toy building blocks. The magnets on the back of each square allow it to stick to almost any metal surface, making them versatile to use. We love the fact that the pen and eraser is contained within the design, so that you never misplace them! mc squares is currently in its Kickstarter phase, and as part of the reward of backing them … for every square bought, at any donation level, they will be matching the backing and sending the same amount of squares backed to a educational institution of your choice, and in your name. As Franco says, "We truly believe in community, and this is one way we can give back to the community. It has been pretty awesome to see how kids have used the prototypes we have sent out to a couple area schools." To know more about how you can make a difference in a positive light and backing the project, head here. Facebook, Twitter and Website. Designer: Anthony Franco [ Buy it Here ]

| Posted: 24 Sep 2014 05:23 AM PDT Because the rainy season doesn’t agree with fresh laundry, the YOGA “light dryer” is here to help prevent mildew, water stains and bad smells when it’s humid. The upright unit not only offers a quick-dry solution, but has healthy functions such as ultraviolet sterilization and a purification system that brings a friendly smell and feel back to clothes even when it’s sticky out!

| Supercharged Apple Watch Packaging Posted: 24 Sep 2014 12:01 AM PDT Yet another Apple Watch accessory! This time, the masters of creative, luxury bundles at Design Packaging reimagine the original packaging as including a versatile charger for multiple devices. Because it’s safe to assume that each Apple Watch owner will also have an iPhone, the design not only provides an intuitive and organized way to charge both, but puts each on display, elevated safely out of harms way. For super fanboys, an additional USB is available because there’s bound to be an iPad laying around somewhere! Designer: Design Packaging

| Posted: 24 Sep 2014 12:01 AM PDT Despite its ultra-ultra-thin form, the Blade table is stronger than it looks. Designed by Alexander Purcell Rodrigues, the dining table takes advantage of Mykon’s innovative aluminum honeycomb technology. With its high strength-to-weight ratio of honeycomb material and new fabrication techniques, an impossibly thin and elegant table is reduced to its purest form without sacrificing safety or functionality.
