Surprisingly designed smoke detector
The Dutch Louise van der Veld will releave us from the boring smoke detectors. Her Chick-a-Dee design is a real eye catcher. Our guess is that this bird won’t sing a cheery tune when it’s on fire.

A barbecue and herb-garden in one. Perfect for the (smaller) terraces, balconies, or just because they look nice.
“Tea-time”, designer Pengtao Yu created a simple but yet convinient set combining tea leaves, water and steeping time. You put tea leafs and hot water into the first part of “Tea-time”, twist the timer to set the steeping time and the tea slowly trickles down to the bottom beaker. The timer/filter hold back the leaves and your cup is ready to sip.
Auberge Saint-Gabriel in Montréal, has a lot of space which is designed in an original way by designer Bruno Braën. For example the first thing you see upon entering the restaurant is a huge spine of a whale hanging in the center of the restaurant. They also have a grass-covered expanse that becomes a picnic and play area for the young at heart, and two genuine stuffed moose joined at the neck—the antithesis of a moose trophy on the wall—serve as a lamp. At their website you’ll find more pictures.
Çurface is a new company that makes furniture out of recycled plastic cups and coffee grounds. The material they’ve come up with is a high impact polystyrene composite board that is malleable when heated. The surface of the material has the faceted look of crystal but is smooth in texture and reminiscent of chocolate, leather and stone.
Concrete Blonde is a 100-seat restaurant presided over by chef Patrick Dang who has brought the many nuances of his international experience to the stylish tables of Concrete Blonde. We loved the pictures at The Cool Hunter.
Illuminated walls to completely transform a space. Philips has announced a new product on the market, namely luminous fabric. The product is made in partnership with the Danish Kvadrat Soft Cells, a company specializing in sound absorbing panels. The durable panels are based on an innovative and patented aluminum frame with an invisible energy mechanism, that stretches the fabric perfectly smooth. The panels are integrated with LEDs and can be connected to an audio system to change color to the beat of the music. Look at the movie to learn more.
This handy water meter is directly mounted on the faucet or a bottle. The concept design is very useful in the kitchen and will save water. If the amount of liters could be fixed beforehand than it would be perfect.
A stylish coffee maker with cup dispenser. Designer Sueng Jun Jeong makes ‘traditional’ coffee making at the office appealing again. The name P-Cup is a contamination of paper cup + pickup and paper cup dispenser + coffee maker.
If the question “What do we eat today?” is a daily ritual, check out these seven plates. They can provide direction with their characteristic shapes for specific meals. Designed by 5.5 Designers, who probably aren’t fan of sauces.
