Ultimate Urban Commuter

Posted: 05 Oct 2012 09:45 AM PDT

Fed up with a tiresome train commute in his local Sydney, designer Richard Heath designed this modern city commuter, the BlueSkyBike. The electric assisted, folding design features a rear hub motor, angled folding mechanism for easy transportation and storage, a regenerative braking system for supplemented energy, and even smartphone linking capability that makes it possible to monitor energy systems and the bike’s security. Besides all that nifty tech, it’s just plain cute! Hit the jump for the video!

Five Reasons To Flash A Smile

Posted: 05 Oct 2012 06:27 AM PDT

A camera is best described as a device that records images that can be stored directly and transmitted to another location, or both. We have seen it evolve through the years in both technology and in design. This brings to mind the question, what is the future of a camera in say about five to ten years from now. Will it be minimal or elaborate? One thing is for sure, the cameras of the future will be high on technology but their designing may get radically unconventional. Here is a look at five futuristic concept cameras that give you a reason to flash those pearly whites!

Wings of Steel

Posted: 05 Oct 2012 12:01 AM PDT

I love a design that makes you wonder, “what the heck am I looking at?!” Especially when it’s as pretty as this chair by Laurie Beckerman. The design is both fascinating and functional with a unique optical pattern that’s captivating from every angle. Though its aesthetic is light and delicate, the laser cut, black powder coated steel construction is super strong, perfect for indoor or outdoor use.

This Bangle Means Business

Posted: 05 Oct 2012 12:01 AM PDT

High fashion meets high-tech in this unique concept called the Mini Projector Bangle. You’d never know from looking at it, but this wrist ornament houses a powerful high def projector and USB data storage, making it possible to project presentations directly on to any surface. Simply slide a finger over the touch sensitive bangle to move between slides or touch to turn on the LED time display. Perfect for the working woman!
