| This Time The Push-ups Are Not Bras Posted: 06 Sep 2010 02:58 AM PDT  For some odd reason it's called the Push-up, but there's nothing indicative to that action, I mean you don't have to push anything UP! Push- Up is a waste bin, and it's got this flexible form so I assume it's made from some kinda rubber or silicone. When the trash piles up half-way, you just gather the mouth of the bin together and compress the contents…pesto…now there's some more room for some more trash! As for the mouth-of-the-bin, it goes back to the original shape once you release it. Flexible wastebasket eh! The Push Up Waste Basket is an iF Concept Design 2010 winner.

| Posted: 06 Sep 2010 01:46 AM PDT  Pleasure to the People is a series of sex accessories (vibrators) from the house of Jimmyjane and their new seductive design is the Form 3. What makes this and the rest of the series stand apart from the regular stuff is their groundbreaking design execution and innovative thought process. Form 3 is quite a departure from the conventional looks of a vibrator; the slim curved profile flexes to meet the body. The highlight of course is the central soft silicone touchpad that extends, focusing the vibration exactly where it counts. While Form 2 looked so much like a rabbit, this one looks similar, albeit with fused ears! Can pleasure be so sinful that at the one end of the spectrum you have the land of Kamasutra banning sex toys and accessories. And on the other you have celebrated designers getting creatively adventurous, adding creditability to the industry. Here are some more details on Form 3:

Especially when you’re talking about their great tracts of land and the way they’ve had them designed and laid out. In this post, you’ll need to know the term “gloriette.” A gloriette is a structure or building constructed in a garden setting made to work with and compliment the surrounding area. This term “gloriette” comes from 12th century French and means “little glory.” What we’ve got here, designed by the Campaña brothers for Veuve Clicquot, is the “La Gloriette,” a contemporary version of the gloriette done in the playful nature of our modern day design world. Veuve Clicquot is both a champagne house in Reims, France and a brand of premium champagne. This “La Gloriette” was made to sit near this house in France. This house being a place that’s a perfect model of 19th century French gardens, a gloriette was a perfect accent to be built. The Campaña brothers have created a piece of art that is “intended to celebrate the art of playful conversation and the enjoyment of good food and drink.” Drink especially, I’m sure. What a lovely reflection of this sensual brand of drink. NOTE: below you’ll see the structure at Maison&Objet in Paris at the Veuve Clicquot Bar as well as at the intended location, that being at the Veuve Clicquot house in Reims, France.

| Posted: 06 Sep 2010 12:11 AM PDT  This project goes by the name “IronwoMan,” capitalized just like that. It’s made by designer Muzaffer Kocer, who tells us that ironing clothing is a boring and difficult process, especially if you are a man. I tend to think that it’s a boring process for ANY person, but Kocer’s going to relieve that. This IronwoMan capitalizes on what Kocer notes that researchers have found out about men: that they like wheeled vehicles, cars, and rotating objects. Weird! Kocer found this out and created an iron that works like an asphalt roller with a rotating tambour. Kocer notes that this rotating tambour makes ironing a funny and enjoyable experience. It’s also full of LED lights and can turn any wrinkly pair of pants into a flat pair of pants. Designer: Muzaffer Kocer ----------     |
| Posted: 06 Sep 2010 12:03 AM PDT  When I was a kid, I had a toy made of plastic and string. It was a pile of body parts all connected by the string. There was a button on the bottom of this toy and at the push of this button, the spring would be sprung, the string would be taut, and all the pieces would be held together tight, revealing Mickey Mouse! I can’t remember a single place where this lovely concept had been used, until now, in a chair! This is the “Miniature Lazy Chair,” designed by Fresh West and hand assembled by Laikingland. The Miniature Lazy Chair is a 1:6 scale version of the original Lazy Chair which is brought to exhibitions and constantly met with a pleased crowd. One push of the lever on the stand and the chair collapses. A few moments pass, and the chair is pulled back upright in whichever order it happened to fall. This chair represents several shared interests between Fresh West and Laikingland: movement, craftsmanship, and playfulness. Fun stuff! Designer: Fresh West for Laikingland ----------     |
| Posted: 06 Sep 2010 12:00 AM PDT  If it's an eco conscious faucet with fun elements and a universal appeal that you're looking for, I've got one for you right here. It's called the Seesaw and it works on the same lines as the playground namesake. The up down action dispenses water from the left and soap from the right side. The eco factor kicks in with the notion that you'll use only limited water, after dispensing the soap, and not while you pump some from a bottle. And as Chanhee points out, it should do well in public toilets. Designer: Chanhee Han ----------     |
