rocking teapot

there is nothing like sitting on your favourite rocking chair with a cup of tea in hand, and betina piqueras’

rocking teapot brings the two together in a creative reworking. the rocking teapot is a small tray that has

a wire frame that holds a special teapot by two handles on its side. the teapot is suspended in the air and 

a small circle in the tray holds the cup below. the user simply tilts the teapot towards the cup and the tea 

pours right in. the design is perfectly functional helping users steadily pour a big pot of tea while 

remaining quite whimsical.

Octopus

We all have the same ugly shower caddy, right? The kind that rusts all over the place, or has suction cups that stick for three minutes, tops? Here’s the solution to a disheveled shower: the octopus. Eight grippy PVC arms grab all your bathing necessities so they are easily accessible. Store your shampoo bottles upside down so you can squeeze out the very last drops!

No Scratch Watch

The Swatch concept watch by designer Allan George is basically aimed at the youth who like to wear trendy fashion, but maybe rough with it. Although latest scratch-proof glass materials are used in Omega, Rolex and ilk, but not all brands use this for their entire collection. And a watch with scratches on its glass looks so lame! Allan’s concept simple does away with the glass face and replaces it with a plastic-rubber finish. The colored hands peep out, behind a transparent rim, giving the watch a trendy and easy look!

Measure This

The Shell is a sleek digital scale sexified with good modern looks. Lift off the Stainless Steel measuring bowl to reveal a large LCD display and simple controls. Rest the upturned bowl on the unit and it’s ready to weigh both liquids and dry foods. A convenient ‘add and weigh’ function also allows multiple ingredients to be weighed in the same bowl during recipe preparation and an auto power-off feature maximizes battery life. Love it! Doesn’t look like medical or industrial equipment. So perfect for all my crazy crafting needs, like changing base metals into gold. Hehehe, hahaha, AHAHAHAHA!

Fork The Cables

Honestly, how many of you read about me at Unplggd, when they featured my desk? In retrospect, I am so ashamed of all the wires that snake around my beautiful desk. As a resolve I’m going to invest in some great cable managers, and since I’m design-centric too, I’d like them to be as quirky as the Fork And Cream Sauce! Kinda like forking your spaghetti…with cream sauce…ooo and buttered mushrooms on the side, and I’m getting off topic now, oh and I’m hungry too!

Never Miss the Key Hole

Lost in the dark! That’s usually what happens when you get home from a long day of working, skateboarding, drinking, whatever! It’s dark outside, you wanna get into your house, but by golly if it isn’t the most difficult thing in the world to get that key aligned with the key hole in order to insert and turn! Here’s the key to this problem. The “V Lock.” It’s got a v. You put the key in the v. You open the door. Perfect.

I think you’ll understand this concept in basically 0 seconds. It’s just that obvious. Props to designer Junjie Zhang for making the world a more intuitive place, one lock at a time.

I’ll Cup Noodles To That

Oh Cup Noodle, you fed me all thru college when I was broker than a joke. You flavored my palette with harmonies of sweet and saltiness. How I enjoyed the gummy texture of your noodles and fondly remember burning my tongue several times because I couldn’t wait for you to cook and cool. Sadly Cup Noodle, your styrofoam packaging is a big no-no so I want to show you this one; collapsable, disposable, and much easier to ship.

Salt And Pepper Me

Fresh salt and pepper really do make the difference so the initial investment is totally worth it. Two chamber mills are a dime a dozen but the Y-Grinder by Joseph Joseph is particularly handsome. It’s made entirely of ceramic and guaranteed to be anti-corrosive up to 10 years. Now thats standing behind your product! Don’t you guys this it’s beautiful?
