Sandviper
No snow – not a problem! According to designer Marc Bischoff the desert dunes or beach bunkers, either way sandboarding can be a lot of fun especially if equipped with the right gear.
Firo
Cooking in an open, blazing fire is fascinating. Eating outdoor is great as well. Andrea Nimtschke’s “Firo” is a tube with a drawer in it. The drawer holds several ceramic pots. Each of these pots is hung in a way that makes sure they are always upright. Stick that whole thing in the fire, and once it’s hot just open the drawer and take the pots out. Each of the pots has it’s own insulated container to keep it warm.
Swell vases
Anika Engelbrecht’s swell vases is a lot of fun and space for personal creativity as well. After being filled with water, the balloons bulge out of the vase’s cutouts. We like it!
Nendo
Astonishing how much you can create in one movement. High-tech materials are combined with old traditions and as result this charmed forest of mushroom-like lamps, so imponderable and ambigious. The beauty of wabi-sabi: incompleteness, simplicity and nonideality.
Hono
Electric candlelight is missing life, - say some. Well, Hono is not a candle, more than a lamp. It is an experience of light, with all the mysteriousness included. To turn on the hono, rub the hono lightly with the top of the matchstick. Hono can be temporary blown out like a genuine candle then it gets back on again in 10 seconds.
Lunacalante CD player
This CD player from Metaphys is cut in half so a part of the disk is actually playing outside of the unit. This unique effect is contrasted through illumination and it almost appears as if you can see the sound being played.
Spicy Hot Book
This wonderful book actually contains sheets that are embedded with spices. It could be the beginning of new era in cooking books industry. Print your flavor, tear it and use it.
Time
This is a design for those who are living in the city, who tend to lose the sense of time; they can reaffirm this sense by linking the progress of time and the change of natural colors during a meal. The colors appear vaguely by reflecting from the table change, in each course of the usual full course meal, from orange to red, purple to blue, like the color of the sky in the evening.
