It’s been Rubiks all this while, but if they crave something different then here is something more challenging; The Huarong! It's an ancient Chinese game of intellectual toys which includes judgment of textures and sense of shapes. I wouldn't want to dilute the explanation to the game, so I have left it intact for you to read in the accompanying pictures. Have a look…. Designer: Xiang Pan ----------        |

It's the obvious choice even in public restrooms. However to provoke a conscientious mind, the trio designers have devised the Re-Bubble Soap Dispenser. It's a dispenser meant for public toilets, where people bring in their old-not-so-sudsy-soaps and insert them into a grinding slot. Giving the discarded soaps a new lease of life, the granulated suds now offer you a hygienic wash in the swanky new liquefied bubbly avatar! Only thing, remember to carry soap-cakes first!

| Posted: 26 Jul 2010 02:29 AM PDT  The hair dryer is a fine instrument and does its job well but its design has stagnated. What designers usually tackle is the form of the dryer and forget the hanging wire and its storage. Dryerhair is a blow-dryer that features an elongated backend….kinda like an extra housing space to coil in the wire. Although the form is pretty rigid, it's a good design that makes it compact when storing in a cupboard or a drawer. People may question the heat of the blower affecting the tailending wire, but I doubt that's much of a concern. Photograph by Nice Images Designer: Industrial Facility For Wallpaper ----------     |

Here at Yanko, we encourage the research of all directions of food, especially foods that at some point or another in their creation spews forth from its creator, in this case, the toast and the toaster. The “moolEdge” uses a system of sliding plates to create an environment in which hot fried breads can be created without the need for mechanic parts. Easy to work, easy to clean, easy to toast with. Hey! A whole new way to toast? Yes please! Take a peek at the VERY EPIC video here below to see the moolEdge in action, then give some hot feedback to Atıl Kızılbayır, the designer of this lovely invention. And give him props for the continuation of toasted bread research, a field that should never, ever stop being innovated upon. Designer: Atıl Kızılbayır ----------     |
| Posted: 26 Jul 2010 12:04 AM PDT  This right here is a solar powered cooling machine. It’s a cooling container that cyclists can use to store chilled products, made to work independent of any service supply. “The hotter the day, the cooler the ice cream.” Solar panels imbedded in a membrane, connected to solar charge regulators, using wires situated within the panels, generate around 35W on a sunny day. Keepin them cones cool with the power of the sun. Super poetic and scrumptious. This “Solar Cool” cart features a removable cooling unit so that it can be charged from a separate supply during the night. The cooler requires about 64W “every few hours” to keep the temperature standard. The tank for storage of cold goods is approximately 40 liters. Modified tricycle frame made of steel and is extended to accommodate the solar membrane and support the cooling unit. Reversible seat, canape, and side panels suitable for banners.

| Posted: 26 Jul 2010 12:03 AM PDT  This project goes by the name “ReStyle.” It is not a singular bit a furniture, but a collection which goes together, comes apart, works together, and works apart. It flips and floops and turns and sits in any number of configurations limited only by your own mind (and in some cases, the physical universe). What will you do with such a system of objects? Basically everything? Or will you set it one way and use it that way forever? It is a journey for a strong furniture loving heart. ReStyle aims to be forever useful, “Longevity through versatility” is one of its credo verses. These are too:
Having just moved into a new apartment, having just moved furniture and entirely too much physical loot from one place to another not knowing what’s going to happen in this new environment I say yes, instantly, this ReStyle system has got to be somehow a great big yes in the futures of hip nomads. It’d be so great to not have to change furniture (buy and sell or trash) each time one moves due to changing space and junk requirements. Having items that sit on their head or their side… that’s just smart. BONUS – I must tell you that this project (ReStyle) reminds me very much of the first project I ever had the privilege of writing about here at Yanko Design – Brian Lee’s Chubby Brothers Hidden Chairs Dinner Table. Similar vein! Designer: James Howlett ----------     |
