Zipper Quality Sound

Posted: 30 Jul 2012 01:11 AM PDT

It's not the first time that zipper functionality has been introduced to earphones. While earlier concepts only dealt with taking care of managing the earphones, this improvised version has some new features to it. For example, to control the volume of your digital player, simply slide the earphone line up or down, just like zipping up and down. To change tracks, you need to twirl the line either to the left or right. By employing intuitive gestures to control your device, the design has the potential to become a good product. Now only if we can figure out the engineering for it.

The Power of Z

Posted: 30 Jul 2012 01:01 AM PDT

Z-FIXIE is a fixed-gear bicycle concept with polished Z-shaped frame. All the elements of the bike are connected to the Z-shaped frame. This includes the top tube, the seat tube, the bottom bracket and the chain stays. Designed to look uber cool and sophisticated, the design enjoys high stability from the traditional bike structure. Care has been taken to ensure that design is completely compatible with current components in the market. It even features perfectly harmonized integrated rear lamp and aero spoke wheels. Looks really cool, if you ask me!

Circles & Squares

Posted: 30 Jul 2012 12:02 AM PDT

I minimal mixture of circles and squares is what makes up the very simple and charming Snövsen desktop lamp by Danish design studio, MadeByWho. 4 Danish maple wood pieces for support, a thin painted ceramic shade, and a single bright LED are all that go into the construction, making it cost efficient to manufacture and very lightweight. Leave it to the Danes!

Deceiving Softness

Posted: 30 Jul 2012 12:02 AM PDT

Inspired by the caterpillar’s many co-functional legs, this stool by the same name features interwoven plywood pieces that move and reshape to adjust to the seated person. Though it appears rigid, the design is unexpectedly flexible and elastic as the links (held together with bungee cord) mold to the user’s body.

Just a Lil’ Bling Bling!

Posted: 30 Jul 2012 12:01 AM PDT

The Invert collection of concept jewelry takes subtlety to a whole new level! The series, which includes earrings, wrist band, necklace and rings was designed with the idea that the user should wear the jewelry for themselves rather than for other people to see. The designs leave the gem stone almost totally unexposed, keeping the rock closer to the wearer and giving others who see it just a glimpse of the bling underneath.
