Flying Robot Quadrotors - James Bond

Arghhh we're all going to be over run by flying robot quadrotors performing James Bond.

Berg's Little Printer

I'm not sure what to make of Berg's little printer. Part of me loves it and part of me thinks it's the type of object that could very quickly become obsolete. I do love the design though. Minimal with a touch of fun, just the way I like things.

Mathew Lim's Eco-Vinyl

I only wish this eco turntable by Mathew Lim wasn't a concept. I like.

Nomad by 1/100

I'm loving this disco caravan that was installed into the gardens of the Quai Branly Museum in Paris earlier this year by Swiss architecture firm 1/100.

ShapeOko CNC machine

 

The ShapeOko is a desktop CNC machine that is completely open source and designed to be build for $300. Although it is clearly intended for small parts this would be a great tool for model making with a Dremel attachment or a cutting blade for vinyl work. I'll be keeping a close eye on this!

Everyone Loves Toast

Looking at toasters isn't everyone's cup of tea but the shear amount of strange designs and varieties on www.toastermuseum.com is quite impressive. It's amazing to see how one item has changed so dramatically over the decades.

The Land Of Giants

The Land of Giants by Choi + Shine architects are amazingly impressive. All built from the same generic components they make for a stunning and epic addition to their surrounding environment. I think it just goes to show that if we look at what is around us with new and creative eyes then we can start to make things that people appreciate and don't just take for granted. Link

Stylophone BeatBox
