| Posted: 16 Jul 2012 09:10 AM PDT If you haven’t taken a spill while carrying a tray of food, it’s probably safe to say that you’ve at least had some close calls! Designed with this in mind, the Magic Tray uses magnetic force to keep everything in place. When carried, magnets in the tray attract magnets embedded in the dishes to keep them stable. Setting the tray down breaks the magnetic attraction so the dishes can be picked up easily. Hit the jump to see how it works! Designer: Ryan Jongwoo Choi - Related posts:

| Posted: 16 Jul 2012 06:17 AM PDT The Dipping Cover is a very clever design; who would have thought that by creating a simple indent in a lid, one can achieve such spectacular functionality! The idea behind the project is to reduce the use of the plastic cups for ketchup, which we find in most McDonalds and other fast food chains. An indent on the drink or coffee mug lid is good enough to serve as a dipping dish for the ketchup. As you can see, it's not messy and very easy to carry even on the go. Brilliant design, if you ask me! Designer: Bae Su-kyoo and Noh Haeun - No related posts.

| Posted: 16 Jul 2012 05:39 AM PDT The AmoeBAND is a bionic concept for band aid. The design features strategic cut-outs so that you can shape it to fit fingers in such a way that it is easy to bend them and not disrupt the bandage. It even features an intelligent dressing material allows you to regularly check wounds from the outside, without upsetting the healing process. Since the bandage material used exudes a leather-like feel, availability in different skin-tones helps it blend in, without overly highlighting the injury. As the designers explain, "According to research, the when an infection of a wound is detected, the pH value is between 6.5 and 8.5. AmoeBAND's indicator cross turns purple, alerting the user needs to change it immediately." Even the packaging has been redesigned to a matchbox style and even includes Braille instructions! AmoeBAND is a 2012 IDEA Award Finalist. Designers: Tay Pek-Khai, Hsu Hao-Ming, Tsai Cheng-Yu, Chen Kuei-Yuan, Chen Yi-Ting, Lai Jen-Hao, Ho Chia-Ying, Chen Ying-shan, Weng Yu-Ching and Chung Kuo-Ting

| Posted: 16 Jul 2012 12:01 AM PDT Stripped down to the bare essentials, the Dwarf minibus concept goes to show that high occupancy vehicles don’t have to be inefficient or environmentally detrimental. Each wheel is powered independently by an in-wheel electric motor and can be operated in any direction for tight turns, true parallel parking or 360 degree turns. Like its more popular compact counterparts, it also features lightweight reinforced polymers and composites for added efficiency that doesn’t sacrifice safety. Designer: Dakoda Reid - Related posts:

| Posted: 16 Jul 2012 12:01 AM PDT The Icicle Chair applies wintery inspiration to gothic style to form one eye-catching seating solution! The design looks somewhat threatening with its sharp spikes but is contrasted by a sleek, uniform seat and back. The dungeon-esque design certainly isnt for everyone, but one thing’s for certain, it’s sure to be a conversation starter! Designer: Ali Alavi - Related posts:
