Yanko Design - Form Beyond Function |
Posted: 23 May 2012 04:27 AM PDT Embracing Warmth hand warmer is inspired by the maternal instincts of an Emperor Penguin towards its hatchlings. The warmer is an easy egg that radiates sufficient heat to keep your hands warm sans gloves. A general feel-good portable thang for winters, the idea is very akin to warming your hands around a cuppa hot soup! Love it! Designer: Jaehwa Lee - Related posts: |
Posted: 23 May 2012 04:10 AM PDT Bio Clean is a dust-buster that converts bio-wastes to energy and uses that power for it's functioning. Let me explain, we generate a lot of kitchen waste that can be converted to bio-fuel, however majority of us skip this process because we don’t know how to do it. Using this premise, the Bio Clean was designed to convert waste to bio-fuel and operate as a cleaner. The details are sketchy but the logic is sound. I'm curious to see how this idea shapes up.

Posted: 23 May 2012 12:03 AM PDT If you think you’ve seen Ricardo Marcos’ Quatro chair before, then your eyes aren’t deceiving you. This beautifully crafted chair and footrest combination takes a great amount of inspiration from none other than the ultra-famous 1956 Eames lounge chair. It’s a fabulous, modern twist on the familiar fragment that is sure to be just as timeless. The chair is composed of a main bent plywood sheet that holds the leather cushions. The armrest and back support is made by a two-piece bent plywood shell that helps the main piece stay in place. The handmade manufacturing process starts with two different molds (one for the seat, one for the two pieces of the armrest, and one more for the support/ottoman). Each bent piece is made of 28 thin layers of veneer glued together inside the molds before drying for almost two weeks. Once this process is complete the final veneer is applied (in this case walnut). Designer: Ricardo Garza Marcos - No related posts. |
Posted: 23 May 2012 12:03 AM PDT We’re all familiar with campfires, but here’s a clever twist on everyone’s favorite camping pastime. Introducing the LampFire! Composed of 3 independent “torches,” it was designed as a way for urban dwellers or beach lovers to enjoy a campfire-like glow from the comfort of the city. Separated, they can be used as flashlights until you reach your destination and combine them to create your LampFire! Now, if only it could roast marshmallows… Designer: Tom Bendkovski - Related posts: |
