The W* House
July 14th, 2009 · Design
Wallpaper’s just launched a new interactive portion of their website which aims to catalogue and document a selection of products their editorial staff likes. They’re adding new items to it regularly so I’m sure it’ll come to be useful, or at least inspirational. Great selection of goodies which are browsable by room or product. Check it out.
Split Ring Key
July 14th, 2009 · Design
The Split Ring Key: Another great product from Scott Amron, the designer behind the New Soap Old Bottle we covered a few months ago. Carry your keys on your other key. Real working key blank. Key blank can be cut by any key cutter to fit KW1 or SC1 keyways.
He’s also selling a 30% stake in his “Split Ring Key Blank Patent”… I inquired to find out how much he is looking for. Via PSFK
One Less Desk Compaions
July 10th, 2009 · Design
The OneLessDesk we wrote about last April now has companions. Now joining the lineup is the computer desk/stand and OneLessFile for all your filing needs. Big fan of this easily stackable/configurable stuff. Great work Dean!

LG's GD910: in the UK next month
The LG Touchscreen Watch Phone – also know as the GD910 – will be sold by Orange in the UK, but only for a “limited time period”.
Orange has yet to confirm how much the futuristic timepiece will cost, but it has previously been speculated that the device will cost about £1000 ($1458/€1140).
The network operator said that the "handcrafted" device will be available “at an exclusive price point” – which is undoubtedly code for 'expensive' – on either pay-as-you-go or SIM-only options.
See the LG watchphone demo'd for Register Hardware on video here
An integrated camera lets the GD910’s wearer make video calls over a 3G connection of up to 7.2Mb/s. The device also features voice recognition, text-to-speech functionality, Bluetooth, an MP3 player and 1.4in touch-sensitive screen. ®

Aimée Wilder Retro Tech Inspired Wallpaper
April 23rd, 2009 · 1
Aimée Wilder is a New York based designer that has collaborated with Vans on shoe design and Skip Hop for their line of bags and baby bedding. This being unplggd and all, what really caught our eye was her wallpaper. The analog nights line to be exact. We have seen pixel inspired wallpaper and even blankets as wall coverings, but there is just something so right about seeing a repeated pattern of cassette tapes, turntables, speakers and keyboards...

April 21st, 2009 · 1
This small apartment in France features a cube, suspended from the ceiling that divides the open plan and acts as a bedroom. The odd, bi-level studio space was re-designed by architects Emmanuel Combarel Dominique Marrec. The new suspended cube (which only is connected to the ceiling) helps ease the transition between the low living space and the mezzanine that supports areas for a kitchen, dining and bathroom.
The suspended box is made of a metal structure covered with wooden panels. The cube — as well as the floor, the walls and the ceiling, has been painted with a white polyurethane resin. And the all-over white helps unite the apartment into a single space with mulitple zones. You can see even more pictures at ArchDaily: Valentin apartment / ECDM. Via: Treehugger and ArchDaily.

tulip fields
April 15th, 2009 · Travel
We have been enjoying lovely weather here in The Netherlands. Spring has arrived! This means that the tulip season has started.
The tulip has come to be a loved symbol of the Netherlands. Many tourists visit our country just to see the bright coloured flower and the astonishing view over the bulb fields. The season begins in March with crocuses, followed by the daffodil and the yellow narcissi. In April the hyacinths and tulips blossom to some time in mid May, depending on the weather.
Happy Easter! I hope you all have a wonderful weekend.
one by vessel ideation
April 1st, 2009 · 1
i have a deep love for all things related to tea-consumption. i love tea cups, tea pots, tea packaging- it all reminds me of relaxing and taking a few moments out of the day to just chill out. but one thing that bugs me about my favorite tea pots is that i can’t use them directly on the stove- and having to clean an extra pot or kettle isn’t always something i’m fond of (yep, sometimes i’m very lazy). so i was excited to see this cool new tea kettle/pot from vessel ideation.
basically, vessel ideation has cut the middle man out and built a container that allows you to boil directly on the stove, and then pour straight into your cup. the vessel itself, called “one“, is made from enamel-coated stainless steel and a high-temperature silicone- which allows you to place the teapot directly on the stove, but still pick it up to pour when it’s ready. so when you attach the magnetic trivet to the bottom you can carry it with you to the table- no need to pour into a separate teapot.
what i love most about the “one” kettle is that its blue graphics only show up when there is hot liquid inside. so as the water heats, the graphic appear and help you know when the water is ready to use. such a fun idea. click here to check out the “one” kettle and watch a video mock-up of it in action.
