IdeaPaint turns virtually anything you paint into a dry-erase surface and any room into a hub of creativity and collaboration. Well thats what the nifty looking website says anyway. The application in an office space is obvious, but I think this would be great as a home application. Especially for the new homes in Boise [...]

Let it be known that we love multi-tools. Leathermans, Gerbers, SOGs and of course the classic Swiss Army Knife. Every man needs a multi-tool. And this, is one of the sexiest ones we’ve ever seen.

We love the iPad, but we are frankly detest the ‘look at me’ that most of the available cases give off. The dodo case that Kevin Rose was raving about is nice. But it looks like it’s sold out pretty much everywhere.

Filmed by director henrik hansen and his team in 2010, Shinya Kimura founded Zero Engineering in Okazaki Japan in 1992. Initially his shop was named Repair Shop Chabo but the name was changed the following year to Zero Engineering.

Carbon fibre stuff is awesome. Not only does it look cool, but it’s an incredibly light and strong material. Which is why it is used on race cars and jet fighters.

What better way to get technical information about nature’s than from a piece of wood. Makes perfect sense. This thing is like one of those Oregon Scientific Weather Stations, that I always wanted as a kid, but in a very nice looking wooden package. Beautiful and eco-themed, it’s even got a motion sensor that detects [...]

For the first release in the series, Furni have teamed up with designer Bobby Solomon, founder of Kitsune Noir and Brooklyn-based Dan Funderburgh. The piece is painstakingly detailed with a [...]

I’ve been itching to make a post about the iPad, but the internet is pretty much reaching iPad news/hype capacity – Degourget doesn’t need to add to the bloat. Even Conan is tweeting about it. But this was too nice looking not to post. Every new gadget/device needs a calculator application, right? Well this one is [...]

If you grew up in the 90′s you’d be familiar with the G-Shock is a brand of watches manufactured by Casio. They were known for its resistance to shocks (e.g. hard knocks and strong vibrations).

So you are an hotshot rockstar Japanese architect, who specialises in doing beautiful minimal spaces with lots of natural light. Then comes along some wealthly Tokyo dude who has a thing for collecting exotic cars. He makes an interesting request: “I want to be able to fit nine supercars in my garage, and I want [...]

Designer Logan Walters has come up with the Wu-Note Project. He has set himself out to redesign all the classic album cover artwork for the Wu-Tang Discography, which is notorious for some horribly aged artwork.

The unfortunately named ‘Yakuza’ is a digitally tattooed wooden table by Reddish Studio. It looks like it’s part of a collection. We have no idea what the ‘digital tattoo’ process involves, but it definitely looks pretty cool. It’s made out of veneered MDF with some kind of digital printing technology.

The French brand LIP has been around 150 years but have been hard to obtain anywhere outside Europe. Now, under the watchful eye of Lip’s new design director Prisca Briquet they have now reissued some of their most important models from a modern collection that remains as visionary today as when first launched 35 years ago.

It’s NBA playoffs right now so a hoops junkie like me doesn’t really need any extra basketball related distractions in their life but the NBA Europa design concept managed to cut through the endless LeBron and Kobe highlight reels to pique my interest. Put together purely as a concept by a graduating senior at the [...]
