While this Three Dee Power Socket design concept can’t do anything to help about the tangle of wires that emanate from peripherals and turn into plastic spaghetti, [...]

This one goes straight to the Dept. of WTF. Designer Ignacio Pilotto created a brand keyboard, where every letter/key is replaced by the logo of an international brand. Cool touch, when looking hard enough and trying to find something positive to say about this massive sell-out, are the extra fuction-hotkeys. Example: [www] + [f] = [...]

Topps, the company famous for their baseball cards, released in 1983 a series of awesome “Video Arcade Gum’. The boxes were shaped like video arcade games.

I already had my rant about the LG wrist wratch phone, but this concept design of a wrist wratch Bluetooth phone (Try saying that 10 times without stuttering!), I must admit looks cool.

The ON AIR Wrist Watch, designed by Turkey designer Iskender Asanaliev, only has one hand, the hour hand. Additionally the hour hand also indicates the minutes in numbers.
I love both concept and ultra-slick design of the watch.Another novelty of the watch is how to set the time: push the button for 5 seconds and the [...]
