A Gem of a Light

Posted: 25 Jul 2013 08:42 AM PDT

No specific shape can be used to describe the Amorphous Lamp, and that’s precisely its appeal! The irregular and multifaceted yet thoughtfully crafted shape is achieved by linking various sized sheets of frosted white polycarbonate on a base of faceted raw wood. Its unique, angular aesthetic changes with just a simple turn.

Designers: Carrie Mills, Ryan Jung, Steve Puertas, & Levi Price

No More Pesticide Food

Posted: 25 Jul 2013 06:53 AM PDT

ECO Washing Balls are sensor driven balls that move in the bowl of water, ridding your fruits and vegetables from harmful pesticides. I am all in support of this kind of innovation; just two days ago I read a news report about some school children that succumbed to pesticide-laced food. Simple dishwashing and running water are not enough, either we stop using these harmful chemicals of get the industry to come out with such innovations. What do you say?

The Washing Ball uses electrolysis technology, which does the sterilization safe and perfect.

Sad for mosquitos, great for us!

Posted: 25 Jul 2013 12:01 AM PDT

Know why mosquitos like us humans so much?! It’s because we give off carbon dioxide – who knew? The Mostrap taps into their CO2 craving so they go after IT instead of YOU! A mixture of yeast and CO2 bring them in, and once inside they’re zapped by an electric grid. The trap’s elegant form bio-mimics the shape of mother nature’s predatory pitcher plant, making it a doubly effective and attractive killing machine! Do you think PETA will approve?!

The SOHO Hailun Plaza in Shanghai is 33 stories of multicolored, multifaceted facade that moves and changes depending on the viewers position, giving it a breathing, dragon-scale like aesthetic.
