I like this concrete coffee machine – I’ve been toying with the idea of casemodding a two group machine I bought on ebay a few weeks ago (fixing its busted pump is a more pressing priority though…).
Via Yanko Design. It’s just a concept at this stage I believe, nothing concrete…
Stop those drips getting away with this awesome cup and saucer set.
This is a pretty cool idea. Scales are both aesthetically unpleasing and cold to touch.
If you want to make a type-face and need a good type-moustache here’s a handy guide to the moustaches produced by flipping the curly brackets ({) from popular fonts.
From here. You can buy it as a poster.
This shirt comes from a series of pretty classy and slightly functional white t-shirts. If you pull the string the blind lifts.
A bunch of designers were challenged to find, and redesign, classified adverts from their local rags. The finished products will be auctioned for charity. Here’s a sample.
I thought I had posted these before, but then I looked, and I couldn’t find them on my blog. So I’m going to assume I looked at them, thought “wow, I totally should blog those” and then didn’t. Until now. They are nice, from this designer, via bookofjoe.
In the spirit of cardboard milk cartons that change colour when their contents are off, comes this milk pitcher that does pretty much the same thing…
From here.
Brilliant concept. Lugging a bag full of spray cans around is what has always turned me off being a graffiti artist.
“Generally, spray cans contain only one colour. If only a small amount of paint is required, there will be considerable wastage. Color Dial Spray is a new type of spray can that contains CMYK colour cartridges in the one can. The user can immediately change the colour by turning the colour dials near the top of the can.
There are two dials: one for hue and one for brightness. These allow for precise mixing of the particular colour desired. The colour cartridges can be refilled many times over. This helps with the reduction of waste. The compact form of Color Dial Spray is convenient and portable.”
This revolutionary milk carton would prevent incidents like the one Ben reported last week. Off milk is the bane of any milk drinker’s existence – and the smell of sour milk is enough to produce a gag reflex. It’d be nice to not have to sniff the bottle wouldn’t it? Some sort of visual aid short of chunks floating on the surface would be nice. Perhaps even a carton that changes colour as the milk inside turns from the nectar of the cows into something more sinister.
This carton designed by Ko Yang should do just that.
This is a nice little ring that will no doubt keep one occupied for hours during boring lectures, public transport trips and sermons. If you want one it’ll cost you just $165.
This is a cool camera that takes the notion of a photoshoot pretty literally.
