Invisible Bathtub

Chris M — Sun, 05 Feb 2012 22:01:32 +0000

Whilst I’ve been collecting quotes for a shower, I’ve come across some pretty amazing showers and bathtubs, but this evening I found an awesome bathtub that I had to share with all of you.. the invisible see through bathtub:

How awesome is that?

The creators of this bathtub come from Boston and work at a firm called Stern McCafferty.

Awesome wooden iPhone covers

Chris M — Sun, 29 Jan 2012 21:05:52 +0000

Matt Turner and Randy Lively, who are Apple fans with 30 years of experience in custom fabrication, decided to create a company called Material 6. The idea behind the company was to perfect the iPhone 4 experience by creating covers that are elegant and comfortable. The idea is that the wood replaces the glass back cover on the iPhone.

I’m sure you agree with me that this is a new level to covers – ok, so it’s not really a cover, but more a design addition, but nevertheless, you’ll agree with me that they’re pretty darn awesome?

Magnetic wood – minimalist natural iPad stand

Chris M — Mon, 09 Jan 2012 07:30:37 +0000

Etsy always has gems and one of those gems was found this evening, an iPad stand using magnetic wood:

This wonderful piece was made by Anna from San Francisco and sells for just $27 (delivery to South Africa is $6.50 on top). All you do is place the two slim stands on either side of the iPad (any direction) and you’ll achieve a perfect balance – as simple as that.

Another bonus is that you can choose from maple, cherry or walnut wood, with cream, milk chocolate or charcoal felt lining :)

Grab it here.

Condom with QR code to measure your sexual experiences!

Chris M — Fri, 09 Dec 2011 18:51:48 +0000

I came across this pretty cool social initiative that encourages youngsters in Stockholm to get involved and create a love making profile.

The concept works like this: 50,000 condoms branded with QR codes were given out; the QR code when scanned reminds you to wear a condom and then goes on to measure rhythm, sound and duration of every performance! It then allows you to create a profile that aggregates your information and then matches you to other people with similar performance styles.

How awesome is that?!

Dry-erase whiteboard walls for your office

Chris M — Mon, 28 Nov 2011 18:50:29 +0000

I always thought that an office with walls that you could write on would be a great idea. I love innovation and I love sitting in the middle of what’s happening so what better than sitting in and amongst all your ideas? I love the thought of glass separators between work stations which make text written on them visible when a switch is clicked, but that’s getting advanced, so let’s settle with this idea.

John Goscha is a young entrepreneur who quit his job to follow his dream of IdeaPaint, which turns your wall into a writing space.

Take a watch:

Here are some photographs:

I think it’s awesome I hope it goes global!

Samsung B&O Phone

Chris M — Sun, 18 Sep 2011 13:26:24 +0000

More devices! I’ve honestly lost track of mobile devices, there just seem to be so many and as I start to catch up, new ones are released. Today is the same, this time it’s from Samsung and it’s a Bang & Olufsen inspired concept device.

The Samsung B&O is essentially a Galaxy, but with a B&O masculine industrial engineering feel to it. Must admit, it’s quite a sexy looking device that Antoine Brieux and NAK Studio have come up with.

Let’s have a look:
