Lihamo: a light, a mobile and a hanger

20091221401

Lihamo? That’s too strange a word, and I bet no one knows what it exactly means, except the designer Cho Hyung Suk. Actually, the new product is a set of hanger modules and a piece of metal sheet, which could create a light, a hanger and a mobile as well. Just put the first two letters of those words (light, hanger, mobile) together, you see, it’s the new word ‘Lihamo’. Look at the pictures below, the 40 pieces of hanger modules could make up 5 sets of hanging mobile, which serve as hangers, too. And the metal sheet? Oh, almost forget to tell you, it’s an interesting lampshade. [Read the rest of this entry...]

Would you prefer non-rounded coins?

200912181001

Round, round, round… All are round coins, none is triangle shaped or square shaped, at least I’ve met none. However, are round coins that perfect while non-rounded coins benefit us little? Perhaps we should think twice. I mean, non-rounded coins, as shown here, possibly will be easily remembered and distinguished even if they’re newly issued. Sounds great, right?

Take more care of your hair.

20091218901

I bet you couldn’t figure out what the product here is at the first sight. You say it’s a memo pad? Yes, you’ve seen that. But actually it’s an indirect advertisement. By this means, the manufactures aim to tell you: if you don’t want to bear hair loss, please try our shampoo. Quite clever!

Rad Blaster, a boom box that is small and light.

20091218501

The further we move on, the more acutely we feel that we kids born in the 80s are the fortunate generation, as we had rather an unforgettable time before cell phones, computers and players came to us. We had boom boxes those days, and we do miss them a lot. Still luckily, we now could have them back, in a new form. Look at these MP3 players, they’re portable devices with OLED screens and support MP3/WMA/WAV audio formats. [Read the rest of this entry...]

Drink less, live better.

20091218101

Drunken driving has long been a hard nut to crack in the management of traffic, and to solve the problem in some extent, A/R Studio has cooperated to design these wine sets, mainly including two special bottles and a series of glasses. And my favorite point is the three scales on one of the bottles. If drinking just a little wine, you’re still allowed to drive back home; drinking half bottle of wine, you’re then suggested to walk back; but if you’ve drunken too much, sorry, you’d better take a taxi.
