Woodero Wooden iPad Cases

Woodero makes wooden cases for iPad which excel in a simple straight-forward made design, functionality and uniqueness. You get to choose from two high quality wood types walnut & cherry designs, and because of a sustainable cultivation of the wood materials, every single case is unique.

Read vs Unread

Read vs. unread bookshelf idea is not new, but Australian designer Robert Stadler executed it so beautifully, it made me look. The Origami-like object is made of aluminum composite and folded into a clever W-shaped structure, allowing us to divide the books into two stacks.

OTT Hook

Entry area is usually a place where we unload our daily gear – handbags, umbrellas, scarves… And the simpler the process is organized, the less clutter stays in the area. This next item by design collective Viable London is very straightforward and takes virtually no space. The OTT hook collection, comprised of four hooks, allows you to use your door as a base. The hooks are attached with a single screw and removed just as easily. Different lengths and color choices add variety and let you match the arrangement to the existing decor.

USB iPhone Case

The latest iPhone cover from Lab. C – the upcoming brand from Korea’s DMAC International is the USB Case for iPhone 4/4S. This amazing cover is supposed to be made from the same new material Makrolon, which is used for the interior and exterior in cars such as BMW. Even better, inside the cover is a USB made of steel. This USB comes in 4G, 8G, and 16G versions. It can be easily slid inside and out in a smooth motion. At the same time, it is securely gripped, so that no amount of hard usage can detach it from its place in the cover.

Modular Bookcase

This fun and unusual bookcase was created by Italian born and South Africa based architect Aram Lello of Lello Design. The piece, called Tag, is a modular system that allows many exciting configurations. And because it looks equally good from all angles, you can use it as a room divider as well. The modules can be taken apart and used as stools or side tables. Lovely!

Bookmark that Follows Your Reading

Albatros bookmarks from Oscar Lhermitte on Vimeo.

The Albatros is a new kind of bookmark that follows your reading. No need to remember the page number, each time you turn one, it inserts itself at the right place. The Albatros bookmarks have been invented and developed by Oscar Lhermitte and are made in France.

Stretch Your Imagaination with Straws

LINX were created because I wanted a construction game that was cheap, flexible and light. With LINX you can build everything from ambitious room-sized structures to intricate table-top sculptures, all using LINX connectors and standard drinking straws. LINX are portable, less expensive than anything else around, and ultra light weight, so that even if your mammoth construction falls, no one gets hurt.

X Men Hangers

This ingenious X hanger was created by Israeli designer Kfir Schwalb. Thanks to its cross-shaped design, the piece can accomodate two hanging options in one - a hook rack option and a clothes hanger option. The fusion of these two functions is what informed the idea of the piece. The X hanger is made from powder-coated, bent steel and comes in a variety of colors.

The Bike Valet

Shoebox Dwelling: This exciting bike storage idea belongs to Sacramento based design duo Steven Tiller and Stephanie Birch of Reclamation Art + Furniture studio. The project was born out of necessity - the couple lives in a small downtown apartment. ‘We bring our bikes inside, – says Steven. – Given our storage issues, this makes navigating the entry hall difficult. I personally have tripped over or snagged a pair of dress pants on an awkwardly placed bicycle more than once. The solution? The Bike Valet.’ The product is made from 1/8? cold steel, its elegant shape is cut using a laser cutter. You have your choice of either a leather or neoprene pad to rest your bike on. And with six colors available – you can think up many beautiful color/pad combinations.

Pretty FieldCandy Tents

The Cool Hunter: FieldCandy tents do not give you camouflage protection in the natural setting, nor do they help you blend in with the rest of the crowd at the campsite. FieldCandy tents are designed to stand out.

It was one of those moments when you think: Why have all tents always looked pretty much the same? We customise everything else, why not tents? And even more remarkably: Why have we been satisfied with those boring, standard tent colours for so long?
