Wooden dog house

Pup_Tent.jpg If you have a doggy at home, then you can maybe get this one for him. This isn’t a typical dog house, it is one hell of a dog house! It is made of wood (duh!) and it looks a little claustrophobic though.

Crushed paper design for Bin Bin waste basket

Crushed_paper_bin.jpg This is a really nice concept. It is a waste basket called Bin Bin and looks like crushed paper. It looks exactly like the contents it is designed to contain – like crushed paper for a waste basket or a tissue holder and so on. The stuff is made of hard polyethylene. While making the design and to create this particular look, over 500 small models were created by crumpling paper then unfolding it, until its shape resembled the desire bin. So the products now have been evolved into Mini Bin Bin, Pen Pen (pencil holder) and Wipy (a tissue box).

WHY luxury yachts by Wally and Hermès

Wally_Hermès_Yachts.jpg Yachts are a class apart when it comes to luxury living. The French, as great as they are with their chocolates and perfumery, are also speckles when it comes to luxury branding. WHY Wally-Hermès Yachts is a new company created by Hermès and Monaco-based yacht maker Wally. The yacht is an epitome of luxury offering maximum space, durability and cutting-edge technologies. It even features photovoltaic panels on the roof to absorb some solar power and the boat is contained in a triangular hull. The interior of the yacht is fitted out with water resistant buffalo leather. This yacht took a few years in making and has been tested in Sweden in a specialized tank testing facility. The results look fine and welcoming. We can hence wait for its launch.

Helmet to hear your voice and keep secrets

speak_helmet.jpg We have seen all sorts of funny gadgets and devices made by some smart and some ridiculous man or woman. This particular concept is odd. It’s hard to place this one. It is supposed to be a helmet designed by Jessica Frelinghuysen. It is for people who wish to hear their own voice. It is a paper helmet that you can’t print out and it comes in all sorts of scary shapes. What happens is that the words bounce off the mouth shield into the ear ducts amplifying your volume and hence encouraging you to speak softly. And if you need to say a secret to a friend, and to her or him alone, then you can use the Helmet For Telling Secrets that will help you to keep your secrets safe.

Funky, futuristic watch Bloc

watch_Bloc.jpg Fun watch. The Bloc is defined as the modern solution to clunky PDAs and old fashioned day planners. It uses colours and vibrations to alert you of scheduled events of the day. It is very funky and futuristic looking. It has a magnetic adjustable clasp to tighten around the wrists and is encased in a multi-colour flexible LED strip. When you have set an appointment, it will show you that there is a meeting instead of just a sound of the alarm. It is like – Time, Appointment (if any) or else the day of the week. It comes in white but the sides have different colored LEDs. Nice design.

Plamp – solar powered lamp cum plant

plamp.jpg What a cute idea. During the day this is an artificial plant and during night it is a lamp. It is the Solar Power Lamp. It is cute as during the daytime it is kept like a plant with three big leaves to absorb all the light. The vase is white in colour. At night, it is turned upside down, with the three leaves as the legs of the lamp and the white part become the lamp shade. How interesting, nice design.
