Posted: 30 Sep 2014 10:29 AM PDT We take a neutral stand on the cancer sticks, and appreciate this Air Wall Isolation Smoking Area concept. The design blurs the lines between designated smoking rooms and second-hand smoking in public places. It allows smokers to be a part of the space and yet be differentiated without compromising on any other person's health.

The Mother Of Concept Designs – Party Hard with 2014 Red Dot Awards: Design Concept Posted: 30 Sep 2014 09:19 AM PDT Entering into its first decade, the Red Dot Awards: Design Concept has everything to be proud about. The size it's grown to, the power it exudes, the accomplishments that the winners achieve and the impact of the win are magnanimous. Was I expecting this year to be different – possibly – however I was bracing myself for an evening where winners would sashay the red carpet, break into a victory gig and then collect their well deserved prizes. Predictably, all of this did happen. The curveball came when the man behind it all – Ken Koo – assigned a videographer to tail me. All of a sudden I was to become this news reporter, scouting for interviews and sensational bytes. Oh well, if anything YD has taught me to be a fast thinker and be always ready for a challenge! Pretty soon the evening was all about getting to know designers and talking shop with them. We did mange to squeeze in some bits of fun and games, all of which you will see in this exclusive video series that we are in the process of developing for you. Until the series is ready for publication, here is a recap of the Luminary Award Winner and what we found to be the hottest Best of Best designs. The photographs are compiled into a gallery, right at the end of this post … do have a look at them as well!

RoboWorm is a search robot with an accordion-like body that replicates the movement of earthworms.

The same process occurs during the making of tea with this teapot. Windflock is a wind-energy system based on a modular structure. It is an open and flexible 'add-on' system made of mini windmills, and works like a LEGO puzzle.

Posted: 30 Sep 2014 07:32 AM PDT Here is an innovative design called the Cold Compress Band-Aid, which is effective for hemostasis. It is formed by the chemical reaction of H2O and NH4NO3; the special structural design allows you to easily break the capsules containing NH4NO3 inside the Band-Aid and with one hand alone. In essence you have a handy cold compress to take care of your bruises and nicks and cuts. Designers: Yi-Fei Lee, Li-Cheng Zheng, Lu-Yao Xiong & Wen-Qi Cao - Related posts: |
