Fluid Vase


The fluid vase by Fung Kwok Pan from Singapore is a customizable vase that takes its form through an interactive digital design interface. The vase’s form simulates the moving fluid, something that is directly linked to the function of a vase. 


Users can specify various aspects of the design to create a unique one off edition for themselves. Adjustments like the speed and volume of water used can be altered and 
the final design is created through 3d printing technologies. 

The digital simulations are based on video of flowing water captured through high speed cameras.

Waive Chaise



This was an entry for a competition for teenage furniture design.
Designed by Roberta Rammê from Brazil.

I soooo want one!

Designer's own words:
"Imagine a furniture to wear... then dress it with an innovator design, intense colors, ergonomics and technology appeal. Like in fashion, the point is to unify beauty, comfort, and functionality. Whether your desire is to watch TV or DVD, listen to your favorite CD, read, talk on the phone, or even study, take a nap or browse the internet, you got it close, in a multifunctional chaise-longue. This concept is inspired by the values and personality of a today's teenager and the standards generated by a global hi-tech culture of facilities, where the access to technology is cheap and easy."

Behold...The iHand


The new iPhone 4 loses signal when held by a human hand. I hate to admit it but its true! The iHand ($69; the end of July) is designed to easily let you receive and make calls on your iPhone 4 without experiencing any signal drop. Just insert iPhone 4 into iHand’s adjustable fingers, raise it to your ear and start talking.

"Featuring Apple’s unibody design, iHand is precision-carved from a single piece of European beechwood. So it’s lighter than a standard medical prosthesis, yet 12x stronger. You can grip iHand either of two ways: by placing your fingers around its palm, or by grasping the aluminized Extender that telescopes from the wrist socket."

Digital Mona Lisa



In the lobby of the Asus Headquarters, a Mona Lisa made entirely from recycled motherboards.

"The work represents two things: a reminder of the technology that Asus built its fortune on and the company’s ethos to encourage and support any kind of crazy ideas."
