teo: an iconic mp3 player



TEO has rolled out their new MP3 player. (the first photo)
it is in an very iconic form- "a cross"
it can be your music source and your personal necklace at the same time.

HOWEVER, the details are not clean enough. the silver buttons and the blue display destroy the whole image. (i guess, it might because of the cost). my suggestion would be the second pic.

in the middle we use a plexi-glass button in the same material. and surround it, we use 4 sensorbuttons. the display, we can use the same technology as sony...here  
in this case, we won't see the frame of the display.

it is much cleaner, isn't it?

The Hydrofoil Water Scooter

The Hydfrofoll water scooter is an interesting water-sport vehicle. what u have to do is hopping ur body up and down, and it moves smoothly but fast further. though it doesn't have the best shape, but it is a nice idea with any extra energy consuming, no enviroment pollution, besides that we still take exercise :D

funny bathroom sign...

it is cool, right :P

NOLA A-Bench

Nola is a swedish furniture manufacture for public space. for the furniturefair 2008 in stockholm, they presented A-BENCH

It is a very simple idea, low-cost, high -modular, just made of 4 elements. we can build them together very easily. i like it.

OLPC roll-out in Peru

finally, the OLPC rolls out in peru. i do think, it is a meaningful project for the children in developing countries. HOWEVER, i am concerning, that it could become just a new toy of normal consumers, or some governments wont't really give them to the children, who need it, but use them for the other purpose.

but now it is rolling out. i hope, it will be a good beginn of it.
