Yoonsang Kim has a good idea going. Create a hybrid utensil called the Chopork and serves as both chopstick and fork alike. Should someone want to ease into chopstick use, this may be a great way to start. And if they’re not comfortable with the chopstick mode, simply snap the two pieces back together and [...]
The concept submissions and finds on Yanko Design never cease to amaze me. Recently featured is an illuminated Polaroid style 3d hanging vase by Hwajin Jung. Jung’s design was inspired by the ideals that a polaroid picture can sustain memories. Therefore by adding a plant, nature is preserved or rather captured at its best. I’m [...]
Green designs are sprouting everywhere these days. But nevertheless, I’m still amazed with each and every concept that comes out. Designers Cheng-Tsung Feng, Yao-Chieh Lin & Bo-Jin Wang have conceptualized a solar powered traffic light that literally houses a single discolor led unit in one attractive unit. While all 3 colors may be housed under [...]
On the norm, I don’t go hunting for spice racks or spice trays. Well ok maybe just once when I was inspired to find one for vinyl toy display reasons. But the Zervo’s Zero Gravity Spice Rack and Spice Stand not only look great in any dwelling, but is perfect for premium spacing. The zero [...]
Here is another brilliant concept that needs to roll straight into production. New York design studio, ChappsMalina in conjuction with Fahrenheit 212 may have developed the solution to watered down iced espresso. The Illy Cafe Rocca espresso ice machine produces ice cubed espresso. The melting is inevitable. However, you can have peace of mind knowing [...]

Also, due to it’s size and mobility, you can have a round with a friend just about anywhere. What’s more impressive are the 3 modes in [...]
Here’s an interesting concept. A quick digital camera that vaguely resembles a hand sanitizer pens. Click the tip and you’ve snapped a photo sans a display. Even without a display and its miniaml design, Tino Klaehne’s Oneshot Camera still boasts features like face recognition and light management software built in. Afterwards simply upload the photos [...]
Gabriele Meldaikyte’s One Hand Kitchen concept is mindful to those disabled and can only use one hand. Just from a quick glance, you can see how well thought out this workstation is. Everything from peeling, cutting, buttering, temporary disposal and overall prep work is covered. Due to the its versatile design, this workstation can be [...]
Seeing Kennth Lylover’s Qubo CD Display instantly reminded me of the vinyl ep frames sold at Urban. The difference is the Qubo CD Dipslay is a more complex and well thought out music medium storage system. Within the highly glossed shell is a spot for the cd case and wall mount supports. Meanwhile, unlike Urban [...]
Joongho Choi’s “Moving Kitchen” would be my ideal essential kitchen ‘must have’ should I find myself in premium or a makeshift spacing. It features a dining table that doubles as workspace, storage and wheels for easy quarterly feng shui-ing. The resin finish is also a nice touch. The only issue I would see is the [...]
