Good pig
I really love the simple lines of the piggy bank, taking an old traditional idea and making it sleek and modern.
don't really get the “bollocky” charitable side, but the design is great.
Piggy is a set of two savings banks that nest together. The larger “momma” bank is for a child’s personal savings, and the smaller bank is for the child's charitable savings.

I was a bit gutted when i saw this, as i designed almost exactly the same thing in my last year of university, guess it shows it WAS a good idea.. (jeff) hah.
New york-based designer george lee, 'a date with wine'.
the stopper is made from a food-grade stainless
steel and silicone. the main feature of this device is that it comes with twistable date rings which help users
remember when they have opened their bottles of wine, allowing them to decide whether or not their wine is
still drinkable.

breakfast
Designed by Niklas Hessman | Country: Sweden
“A kind of taste pack for oatmeal. This package contains the right amount of oatmeal with added sugar and salt. You break your BREAK FAST pack over a bowl, add water and cook in the microwave. Then you can tentatively serve with cold milk. The idea is to target a new audience that otherwise would not eat oatmeal, but also to those who are usually in a hurry in the morning and tend to skip today’s most important meal, breakfast. Break it fast and have a BREAK FAST!”

Fragrance by Alexa Lixfeld
since the last post was about concrete, how about another??
Called Frangrance, the collection includes three different scents, each with a differently-coloured concrete lid.
Espresso Solo by Shmuel Linski
beautiful concrete espresso maker, designed by shmuel linski from Shenkar College of Engineering and Design, Israel.
“The design process begun in choosing the material: I chose concrete. I had a vision: concrete in the kitchen, not only as a wall or decorative part, I wanted it to be a desirable consumer product.”
Sebastian Errazuriz
“We are fucking angry”
Sebastian Errazuriz’s newest work comes in the form of this little beauty, simple, yet creative and effective, its an artistic protest towards the b.p oil spill in april.
“It would be great if people at home could replicate the design and make their own improvised oil grenades to express their anger at BP.”
Originally from Chile, but now lives in New York. He strives to create works that push thinking, obsessed
by the dichotomies of life and death and it shows in his work.
