The Muji Coffee Maker’s starting point is its landscape of use. Its form is a perfect cylinder, making the product non-directional something that has not been done previously. This allows it to sit well in a corner of a kitchen or equally in the center of a table, and was achieved by technically by ‘wrapping’ the water reservoir around the filter. The coffee pot is made of vacuum stainless steel.

The RainDrop’s spherical design gives the sprinkler a tight turn radius, allowing it to follow any path of garden hose laid down by the user, winding around trees, flowers, lawn ornaments, etc. The plastic design keeps the products weight down while the centrally located counterweight lowers the sprinkler’s center of gravity, affording enough weight to keep traction on wet grass.

I like the idea of a lamp which doesn’t have the same shape when it’s on or off. When it’s off this lamp looks like a little box. And when you open it, the lamp lights up thanks to a contact switch. Compared to the other desk lamps, this one can almost disappear when unused.

Inspired by the tall slender look of a cocktail dress, the Duality martini glass retains its simplicity of form through its smooth feminine curves. The base widens to mimic the top, and includes side slits which gently peel open to reveal the central stem. The central stem is drawn from a blue tinted glass to add depth and extra dimension to the glass’s appearance.
Designer: Sprout Concept (Maya Fidler & Michaell Bakalars)
More than just a show stopper, the concept embodies the look of Jaguar’s future sedans. The new design starts in front with a deeply recessed grille filled in with menacing black chrome mesh and a large centrally inset logo. This most likely means no more Jaguar ornaments leaping off the hood. Designers wanted C-XF to look as if it was milled from a solid piece of metal.
Kronos is a men’s analogue wrist watch that incorporates a USB flash drive in the wrist band latch.
