Outdoor Warmer

Posted: 13 Dec 2012 06:39 AM PST

The Stoneven takes the induction cooking stones concept a step further by adding the versatility angle to it. Basically the pebbles can be used collectively to cook in outdoor camps and be used as body warmers. Yeah, the outdoors are rough and rugged, but when you travel in the woods you need appliances and gadgets that can serve more than one purpose. This aspect not only lightens the load but also increases the spectrum of performance.

Stoneven is a 2012 iF Design Talents entry.

Photographing The Photographer

Posted: 13 Dec 2012 06:32 AM PST

It is an everyday occurrence that you want to be included in the photograph with your family and friends, but end up being the photographer. The Not One Less is a concept that allows you to be in the picture. It has a dual lens, one that focuses on the main subjects and the other on the photographer. Superb idea, I hope Nikon or Canon is listening.

Improve Your Mental Agility

Posted: 13 Dec 2012 12:02 AM PST

Heard of the “pomodoro” technique? It’s all the rage amongst PhD’s, academics, and students all over the world! This tool, called the Pomodorogon, enhances the visual and physical aspects of the technique, using an action and visual cue to create a rhythmic working pattern. It’s also double-sided, so you can take it to a pomodoro group, or sit opposite a like-minded co-worker. It will help you get into the rhythm of the technique, and motivate you to complete whole cycles at a time!

The pomodoro technique is a time management tool that is used to increase productivity and efficiency in the workplace. it breaks down workflow into several key elements: planning, tracking, recording, processing and visualizing. The technique uses a time breakdown in order to encourage efficiency: 4 working periods (each 25 minutes) with 5 minutes of rest in between. at the end of the fourth period, an extended break of 25 minutes is allowed before starting the cycle again.

The Pomodorogon focuses on the visual and tracking aspects of this technique, creating visual and physical connections through object and movement with the pomodoro workflow. The user rotates the shape at the beginning and end of each interval. 8 sides, 8 periods of time. When the unit is on a number: 25 minutes of work. When the unit is on the arrow: 5 minutes of rest. The arrow after the fourth working period signifies the extended 25 minute break.

Custo-bike!

Posted: 13 Dec 2012 12:02 AM PST

The MOOBY (a word play on mobility) single-speed bike reimagines the structure of the urban commuter as a paneled, modular system that makes it possible to easily re-skin your ride with personalized graphics. Switch out the side plates to change the color, material and overall look to suite your own unique taste and mood. The hope: that more riders will be drawn to the fashionable style and opt for 2 wheels over 4!

The Glass Saver

Posted: 13 Dec 2012 12:01 AM PST

Geode is a spill proof, protective case that seals in a traditional 16oz pint glass, giving the user a new, convenient way to travel with their favorite beverage. Designer Ryan Savage was inspired one day when he was mixing a protein shake in a glass and then realized he had to run out the door. We’ve all been there – simply slide the Geode cover over your glass and go! No spills, no broken glass and better yet, no BPA or other harmful chemicals from plastic containers!
