When creativity meets design happens amazing things! One example is “Write a Bike”, a truly wonderful concept which promotes a never seen model form for bikes. The clever idea belongs to Paris-based designer Juri Zaech who has thought to personalize bikes in an ingenious way: spelling out people’s names using the bike frame. How does it sounds? Well, his collection of these absolutely unique bicycles designs is funny and original and certainly will be amazing if such bicycles concepts are possible to achieve in reality.
These illustrations show awesome typographic bikes executed beautifully and makes everyone wonder if designer has thought already to produce a prototype of one of the bikes. For someone who love biking we think would be a perfect gift as an alternative to those which are right now on the market. Would you love to have one as a real bicycle?
Sometimes the simplest objects are actually those with the greatest visual impact. Corner Light is one of them, a unique lighting source that interacts with the architecture of the room in a pleasant way. The intersection of walls and ceiling in your room can be from now on a place for Seattle based designer Peter Bristol’s Corner Light to sit perfectly. Designed for British company Established & Sons, this lamp has a clever execution which makes it a contradictory statement that is both inherently iconic and minimalist at the same time.
Taking the form of a glowing equilateral triangle that fits in the corner of the room, the light features a steel bracket of an aluminum structure, a diffuser magnetically attached and a visible power cable. Corner Light seems to blend-in and stand-out in a simultaneous way due to its striking minimalist design and the novel idea of putting it where the lines of the walls meet. Available in two sizes, the lamp is appropriate for any design style.
How to recycle, how to reuse different products that we use everyday is certainly a matter of great interest nowadays. Increasingly more people are informed and involved in finding solutions to preserve environmental resources. Nevertheless there are still many others who are not informed or are careless or do not realize that it depends only on us to protect the environment and its natural resources. We should be aware that everything starts with us and every little gesture made for this purpose will lead to better living for all of us.
For example, how many of you have thought to recycle or reuse the already used aluminum beverage cans? Because aluminum cans recycling is among problems that needs solutions in order to reduce litter, landfills and greenhouse gas emissions, knowing the fact that for example in United States are produced 131 billion cans and only just over 50% of them are recycled. On the other side, tossing away an aluminum can waste as much energy as pouring out half of that can’s volume of gasoline. The question is what can we do with millions of empty beverage cans? Well, it’s seems that Turkish design consultancy Designnobis, who offers solutions by developing visionary and ecofriendly designs, have come up last year with an innovative idea which shows how easy is to recycle by reusing aluminum beverage cans. So forget about throwing them away!
Designed by Hakan Gürsu, “Cans’n Caps” , as it was named, is an eco-friendly product design which helps us give other various functionalities to our used aluminum beverage cans. With “Cans’n Caps” we “revive” aluminum can, making functional and fun objects of everyday life while being earth-friendly as well. The caps have different creative and attractive designs depending on what purpose it’s used: for salt, cheese, pepper; or vinegar, oil, lemon; sugar or anything else, even as a pet feeder or as a candle. Interesting isn’t it? Raising environmental conscience among people, encouraging recycling and reducing aluminum can waste are the main design goals of this project, who has already won not more than 4 design awards in 2011 and 2012.
