This fantastic design comes from Stefan Ulrich and is in fact an out-of-the-box idea on reducing the energy used by your household. The designer explains that a normal fridge consumes over 21% of the total energy in an apartment, which is an impressive figure. “Neff” comes with a new approach. These small fridges can be connected to a power supply, get fully charged and the cool off your food for hours to come without consuming anymore energy. Also, if you happen to have small quantities of food or groceries, it is not necessary to power-up all the cooling cases, but just one or two. This would not be possible with a normal fridge. Portability is also a strong feature. You can just place the items anywhere you like, without worrying about occupying a lot of space. And just look at their amazing shape!- via The Design Blog

This lamp comes from the design graduate Delphine Frey and was her diploma for the University of Art and Design Lausanne in Switzerland. The carbon-fibre lamp has a very interesting shape and the hidden spots create a unique atmosphere. Here are some of Frey’s comments on her project :” This desk lamp or console table lamp was born from the association of two different universes; the softness and elegance of the haute couture pleat meet the rigidity of carbon. It is a subtle mix of two worlds: this object represents the encounter of an ancestral know-how with the latest technology. It was made with the assistance of a Formula One parts supplier.The pleats are not only esthetical, they also add some rigidity to the long and thin structure. In addition, they also hide the leds”. A very intriguing product which makes us look forward to more interesting ideas from young designers.

Earlier this month I’ve presented the Vitamin I.V. Plant Pot an interesting and good looking self watering plant pot. Today I’ve discovered something more extreme, a very geeky and sophisticated plant pot named Pet Plant and designed by Junyi Heo. This plant pot is for those of you who are so busy that they might need a reminder to keep their plants alive. In a few words this concept plants pot shows us how the plants truly feel. The very sleek looking pot measures soil conditions, temperature, humidity, and water calculates those variables based on the need of said plant, and expresses its condition via a series of pictograms on an LCD display. The plant pot will be able to download via an USB interface from a computer all the information about a rose, herb, …whatever, and tell you exactly what the plant needs. Finally the design looks cute, but if every single thing from our house will be depended on electricity our planet, and budget will have to suffer a lot. - Via

Technology in these days changes everything, even faster that we can imagine. For example a new amazing technology has the potential to turn just about any surface, including your walls, into a speaker. Johns Hopkins materials scientist Michaely Yu and his team have made a rubbery plastic-based material that could help place piezoelectric devices in previously impractical areas, including your walls. Personally I can’t even imagine how this technology can work, but for those of you who want to know more about this new technology you can take a look at the patent application of this new technology. – Via 1, 2

I love the power that technology offer us in these days. For example take a look at this wireless floating pool speaker. If you have a pool and you want to listen to music while you get wet and relax you can take a look at this interesting idea … a water-resistant floating speaker brings your playlist right next to you in the water. I never thought at something like this, but I’m glad that other people figured out how to make this idea possible. The new Wireless Floating Pool Speaker transmits music directly from the iPod to the pool speaker. The speakers include a 3.5mm AUX cable with an AC adapter and are compatible with all iPod models. The powerful 915MHz system comes in the form of two speakers with full rage sound so that you can relax and enjoy right in the middle of the pool. The speaker can be purchased from here for $129.95.
