Going to work isn’t the most wished for activity in the world; in fact, it may very be somewhere at the bottom of the list. People don’t go to work for pleasure, at least not the vast majority. Still, imagine that you would be able to customize your workplace, your desk, just the way you want. Forget the ever so small cubicle with the boss patrolling around. Consider you would have a full room at your disposal and you are allowed to set your imagination free. How would the room turn out to be?
This is the Original Friday Inspiration series – amazing things that we handpicked to inspire you to greatness. You have a full weekend ahead, so use it wisely and don’t waste your days of rest on resting! Have an amazing weekend and stay classy, stay curious, stay smart!
So, what is there more expensive and awesome to buy than a Batman suit and vehicles? Not even a yacht may compete with such awesomeness. Still, Migalo managed to offer an alternative to the large boats anyone (anyone from the top 10%) has by providing submersible yachts for their clients. Now they took everything one huge step forward, and are ready to give a full artificial island for anyone willing to pay the insanely high price.
Tesla was late again with its latest vehicle release, but this is not something new, as we can recall from previous releases. As the so-called man from the future, Elon Musk, went to the podium to present his vision on Tesla’s latest EV, everybody witnessed the uncovering of Model X, the company’s first SUV. There is plenty to talk about regarding Model X, but we will try to keep it simple and straight to the subject. First of all, Model X is overly protective with its passengers. It is the first SUV to earn 5 star rating on all its…
Coming back to the original series of 5 sneakers that caught our attention this week, we deliver another set of footwear worthy to be delivered on the front page. As always, we would like to hear opinion over the choices and let us know if any of them will make it to your sneaker collection this season.
It’s not easy to ignore the fact that time passes fast. If you’re a heavy sleeper and get out of bed later than 10 AM, the day is almost lost. Physically slowing down time is not (yet) possible, but doing certain experiments to handle how we perceive time can actually help. slow Jo 19 from slow watches tries a different approach on what we see when checking the time. The authentic Swiss Ronda Caliber 505.24H GMT Quartz movement that comes with Slow Jo 19 featured 4 hands and the date. However, Slow Jo 19 only uses one hand, to reduce the…

Who knows, maybe you’ll choose one to fill up your collection; if that’s the case, we would love to hear which one you will choose.
Turning a boring object into an interesting figure is not an easy task, but manageable when one gets a brilliant idea. Talking about things that lighten up, BULBING lamps provide an interesting take on the casual home lighting applications. Instead of fiddling with new and expensive technology. With a kickstarter campaign that was funded in just 3 days and nominated as the bestselling product on several stores, BULBING can be called a game changer for lamps. [adsense300gray]So, how does it work? As mentioned, the lamps provide only the illusion of a 3D object. In order to develop this sight, designer Nir…
Being built not as a smartphone killer but as a problem killer, Robin is the first smartphone built for the Cloud experience. There is no point in denying that no matter how high capacity modern smartphones are, at some point they will eventually run out of space, forcing you to delete data in order to make room for other. Robin takes on the problem with full force by applying Cloud technology instead of regular local storage. [adsense300gray] Other smartphones can also have Cloud installed applications, you might say. This is indeed true, but Robin is built for the cloud. The…

Kahn Design are worldwide known for their ability to provide automotive designs for the more refined buyers, looking for uniqueness, separating themselves from their friends and even from strangers holding the same car, but without the custom additions. The main choice of customization by Kahn Design is represented by expensive, high end supercars. Hypercars such as Bugatti Veyron or Aston Martin Vanquish have gone through transformation and are now available in the Kahn Design catalogue. [adsense300gray] Land Rover Defender is a great piece of British Engineering, specifically designed to overcome challenges both on the road as well as off the…
We witnessed the last days of summer passing, and mornings have already become chilly as autumn sets in. A long-sleeved shirt is no longer unusual especially for those who aren’t too comfy with the chilling breeze. Still, what about our feet? What is there to wear through the autumn and the not so far away winter? Check out a new list of 5 sneakers that caught our attention this week, below.
Talking about smart cars feels pretty ambiguous today. It has become quite difficult to understand what does a car have to be or what has to do in order to be “smart”. Can we have regular vehicles and make them smarter? Exploride says this is definitely possible, and for a small price actually. Started as a crowdfunding project on IndieGoGo, Exploride aims to offer some of the “smart” functions on an everyday vehicle, without any major changes done to the actual car. So, how does this miracle gadget works? [adsense300gray] Mainly, Exploride consists of an out-of-future heads-up display. It allows…
Even Nirvana got off as a band playing inside a garage, probably driving neighbors close to insanity with their not so profound notes at 3 AM in the morning. Yamaha may have solved this problem dating back from the 70’s, or even earlier, by producing the SLG, the first silent guitar. While at first the concept may seem quite counterproductive, it is in fact the otherway around. So, how does this work after all? [adsense300gray]As you can notice pretty easy, the construction differs a bit from the original design of a guitar. Yamaha SLG is built from two detachable parts,…
Getting ahead of your newly started week? Peek a little into the past and find out what were the 5 sneakers that caught our attention this week. We’ve got at least one new addition besides the usual names, so check out the list below and let us know what you think. Did we miss anything?
Once you get out for the first time in nature, you will never want to go back. Or, at least this is how it works in most cases. Designed as a modern outdoor retreat environment, Cocoon Tree Bed takes the classic tree house and redesigns it to a spherical tent that rests suspended above the ground. Twelve elongated rods fixate the top part of the Cocoon while twelve shorter rods are used for the lower part of the sphere. [adsense300gray] On the outside, the sphere comes covered in either korea tarpaulin (with the basic package) or ferrari tarpaulin (with the…
Apple Watch became a literally overnight success, with lots of people emptying Apple Stores all over the world, for this product. However, as in the case of every new iPhone, it didn’t take long for the first broken Apple watches to appear. We are clumsy sometimes and jump into a water pool under the influence, without realizing that there’s a gadget attached to one of our wrists. And electronic components don’t do well facing water. [adsense300gray]Catalyst offers a full waterproof case for Apple Watch; the first of its kind on the market. Not only that the Catalyst Case is waterproof,…
Teaming up with famous networking components manufacturer TP-Link, Google released OnHub, a new generation wireless router designed to cope with high bandwidth environments and be compatible with mostly any wireless technology to date. OnHub is capable of dealing with speeds up to 1900 Mbps. Its construction integrates 19 antennas disposed circularly, for a better signal spreading and reduced loss. Configuring OnHub is done through a simple but efficient application with the same name. It allows users to provide more bandwidth to devices requiring it, without creating a bottleneck effect as well as other practical features such as media streaming to…

Check out the list below and let us know which one would you choose to fill up the empty gap in your sneaker collection.
What most managers tend to forget about is the fact that, building a proper workspace should start from the concept of engaging and promoting interhuman connections. A great environment for workers to interact and feel comfortable not only increases the overall state of mind in the office lobby, but also enhances productivity on the long term. Solutions to improve workspaces are all around, but Everbright brings something new in the equation. [adsense300gray] As simplistic as it looks, Everbright is able to make different departaments come together while having lunch or a regular break. It works like a giant toy for…
Laptops are made to be powerful but in the same time remain portable. In this note, producers will try to keep laptop sizes under 17 inches, as anything bigger becomes way less portable and does not provide advantage of a desktop anymore. However, although a laptop can pack some serious CPU power and quite a bit of RAM memory, it all gets a bottleneck at the display size. Visual developers, programmers and multimedia users can benefit from two additional screens for their laptop, using Sliden’Joy. [adsense300gray]Sliden’Joy screens can be attached using aluminum hinges, allowing for 180 degrees of mobility. Doubling…
Do you enjoy working inside an Android ecosystem, but you crave for desktop features such as taskbars, multiple windows or multitasking? Based on the modern RemixOS, Remix Mini can be called the first true Android PC. Everywhere there are people spending way more than necessary on personal computers; paying $2000 for a mail checking, youtube music playing machine is not quite of a deal when you get to think about all the power left unused, and more, how you could’ve spent those extra money. Developers of Remix Mini worked to stay behind their motto: “less is more”. [adsense300gray] On the…
As you have already got used to, here we are with a new episode where we list the 5 sneakers that caught our attention this week. New models, rendition of iconic silhouettes and extravagant materials are all here. Take a look at the list below and let us know which one is your favorite. Did we miss anything?
When a regular hoodie just won’t cut it, Baubax might be the ideal solution for traveling long distances either by bus, train or managing to keep yourself dry through a rainy day. It has so many pockets that it is honestly hard to know what to start with. Beginning from the neck and going down, the first one to notice is the the inflatable neck pillow; it hides inside the hood and can be inflated in just two seconds. Getting it filled with air and then pulling the eye mask from beneath the hood allows one to nap comfortably on…
Sneaky little sneakers, always getting into our feet. Well, since they do so, they better be looking good, right? Keep on reading to check out 5 sneakers that caught our attention this week. We chose the 5 ones that we consider are worthy of spotlight. What do you think? Check them out below and tell us which one is your favorite.
There probably hasn’t been any other device in the whole history of science fiction movies that made the geeks go nuts than the hoverboard. You do remember “Back to future II”, right? Everything about the hoverboard remained just a very basic concept, that is until Lexus decided to release a teaser that was going to rock everybody’s world. While in about 20 years we went from basic, brick size (and weight) phones to iPhone 6 and Samsung Galaxy S6, only few improvements were made to skateboards, mostly by adding a small electric engine.
A dry bag is very useful in bad weather conditions or when you’re going surfing or swimming and not willing to keep your valuables on the side where they might become prey for willing minds. When you’re getting out of the gym or from the pool, a nice bag that can keep water from dripping out is great to hold your equipment. But why use two bags when Matador Droplet aims to work both ways and still fit in a tiny recipient you can almost add it to your key chain? [adsense300gray] Matador Droplet wet bag can both keep the…

There are some new names in this week’s list of 5 sneakers that caught our attention, so check them out below. Let us know what you think: which one are you most likely to get your hands on?
While petrolheads may argue that there is no replacement for displacement, I do strongly consider that, in the vast audiomaker industry, there is no replacement for experience and quality. Still, wouldn’t it be great to have an audio device which provides crystal clear sound, gives out a high number of decibels and above all, it can fit in your pocket? With a dedicated music button and two very loud front speakers, Marshall London might just be the loudest mobile phone available on the market today. [adsense300gray] Taking in consideration all 53 years of audio manufacturing experience of Marshall audio, this one…
Admit it; you are sometimes not providing enough attention to bicycle riders when you’re cruising in your car. It may be that you’re tired, having to deal with less disciplined drivers, or, you can’t simply see these guys rolling on two wheels. Lumos is here to solve the problem, by adding automobile-like features into a basic bicycle helmet. [adsense300gray]Lumos starts from the design of a safety helmet and then adds features making you more visible into traffic, especially at night. A set of integrated lights are implemented on the helmet, allowing you to signal before turning left or right. This is…
Terrafugia is not just a new child company just reaching the market and expecting to revolutionize. They’ve been there since 2006, and they are one step closer to providing the personal flying vehicle that will fit inside a regular home garage. According to Terrafugia’s description, the TF-X should be the easy to handle, lightweight, fast and comfortable flying car. [adsense300gray] TF-X has a lot of goals to check before being released, both in terms of safety and performance. For example, TF-X should be designed to be easy to maneuver, taking no more than 5 hours for a regular driver to…
It is the start of an end we might say; and we are talking about fossil fuels. Although the change is not abrupt at all, we are witnessing the transition towards solar energy usage along with other types of alternative energy. Although there are only a few cars that actually run solely on electric power, gadgets are in the number of billions. Solar Paper aims to be the lightest and fastest solar charger there is. According to producers, it is so light, it fits inside a note planner. [adsense300gray] It comes into 5, 7.5 and 10 watt chargers, using 2,…
I got 99 problems but sneakers ain’t one of them, that is certain. As we definitely have mentioned before, you never have enough sneakers and by no means you have too many pairs of sneakers. With the encouraging big speech already done, let’s get started on the next five sneakers that caught our attention this week. Check the out below.
There is never enough power to supply our electrical energy demands. There is always a laptop that needs charging, or a phone, or a tablet. What’s worse is that most of the time, power outlets seem to vanish like water in the desert, right when you need one the most. BatteryBox acts exactly like a power supply and rests small enough to be carried around without too much hassle. [adsense300gray] BatteryBox comes with a special charging cable for MacBooks and a USB port used to charge any other device. Producers state BatteryBox is able to keep a MacBook Pro alive…
A dog is really man’s best friend, and I definitely love this tail wiggling guy who has been chewing the life out of my sneakers when he was just a puppy. Pretty sure I’m not the only one who would go full John Wick mode for his or her puppy, so here’s a great idea on how to keep him sheltered. [adsense300gray] Puphaus is designed and produced by PYRAMID studio, based in Atlanta. The construction really turns heads given its architectural beauty while also being strong and welcoming. Built using cement and cedar wood, Puphaus is supposed to withstand harsh…
Usually, when looking for a compact, or even more, a little video projector, you usually get to see a pico. Although it is basically a minimized version of a full sized projector, it doesn’t even by far provide the same image quality and efficiency. UO might just have sorted out this problem by offering an image projecting gadget that’s small but, despite its size, delivers HD projections. [adsense300gray]Unlike other pico projectors that use dim LEDs to provide and image, UO uses a laser diode that drives the LCOS engine. In other words, the image provided by UO is bright enough…
You never got enough sneakers. It doesn’t matter if you own as much as 50 Cent does, aka having a full room filled with them, you can’t have enough. So let’s take a look at the 5 sneakers that caught our attention this week. We’ve got some pretty faces around, so don’t move on just yet. Check the list below and tell us what you think.
Wouldn’t it be wonderful to have clothes grow up the same we do? Yeah, probably I wouldn’t want to wear my baby outfit at my wedding anyways. However, plants don’t seem to mind at all. As long as the pot they’re placed in is able to fit their roots, it is perfectly fine. GROWTH uses an inovative design, synchronizing to the natural growth process of plants, expanding in size as the living organism inside increases in size. [adsense300gray] Ayaskan, a London-based studio is the one providing the secheme of this adapting pot. According to its designers, having to move a…
Given that almost 60 years ago, caravans weren’t affordable by every John willing to go out fishing for a few days, when the first camper van was introduced by Wolksvagen, people saw the affordable, compact, mobile home that it was. However, lots of progress were done since: both in terms of technological advancements and design. Not long ago, VW unveiled the new California camper van, and it is absolutely gorgeous. The new T6 isn’t exactly what you’d call a rendition of the his grandfather, the microbus. Still, there is no need to panic; this mobile home really catches up the…
Although binding options are virtually unlimited, it seems that, for many artists in love with art at a not safe for work level, combining something useful with a piece of beauty is not quite easy to achieve. We’ve seen various furniture elements with stretched, twisted and tumbled designs; unfortunately, they were rarely useful in a home. It’s a challenge to provide the ultimate 100% usable but artistic furniture. [adsense300gray]Sternum Case was designed by Don Howell for Hellman Chang’s Creative Co-Op Studio in Brooklin. It renders the closest it can get to the ideal spine position when resting, while maintaing great…
Prepare, get ready, and go! Check out the latest edition of 5 sneakers that caught our attention this week. It’s nothing new that we are rambling the internet for hours and hours searching for men stuff worth seeing and buying. Below are the five sneakers we think are worthy of the podium.
When you’re running, biking or hiking, dealing with smartphone-distracted drivers is something you should consider first hand, before anything else. Moreover, if you are the kind of person that does night runs or commutes using a bike, remember that a safety vest and reflective shoes are only effective while in the path of car lights. Just get outside the beam angle and your reflectory equipment is suddenly not effective enough to provide the required level of safety you wish for. [adsense300gray] The Tracer360 Visbility vest promises to solve all the issues regarding how well you’re seen by fellow road users…

Check out the list of this week’s 5 sneakers that caught our attention and let us know what you think.
Painted in the same red and white nuances as the Porsche Salzburg car that Brian Redman used to defeat Petro Rodriguez in 1969’s Nurburgring race, the Autodromo Prototipo watch radiates with different types of emotion. The bright green seconds dial had its color chosen in such way that it matched the green insertions of the above-mention Porsche, which made it stand out even …

Ever considered Transformers morphing out of smartphones instead of cars? Okay, maybe not the best idea for Michael Bay to put out on film, but there is definitely room for improvement. IsoCase is an IndieGoGo promoted project which has the purpose of solving two of the most persistent smartphone issues: battery life and damage resistance. Apart from that, users will also benefit from a larger IPS screen with FullHD (Retina-like) display. [adsense300gray] It works by converting your smartphone into a tablet; one that is able to withstand higher impact damage (including waterproof up to 2 meters) and also provide extended…

Watch out! There is a new brand in town and they are just about to release their first product. Oak and Oscar is a Chicago-based luxury watch brand that has been recently founded. However, their first product, the Burnham watch, named after famous city planner and architect David Burnham, is about to make you sell your soul for a piece; that’s how gorgeous it is. You don’t usually expect the first product of a company to be a sale-breaker, but it looks like the Burnham Watch might be the exception that proves the rule. It uses high quality materials, such…

Some people are just too lazy to surf the waves. Or, they can’t quite master the technique of keeping their feet up on a slippery board. Still, there’s no need to be disappointedş Marine Toys & Tenders came around with an interesting solution. If a regula jet-ski seems a little less fun, go ahead and try out the Wavekat P70. If it looks to you like the best water go-kart there is, find out we share the same point of view. The Wavekat P70 is a great deal of a luxury toy; it doesn’t only look great, but its patented…
There are few expressions of the digital rendered art that can get anywhere close to the fine and delicate touch of photography. Capturing the best angle, getting the proper light and weather conditions, getting the best smile from a model, the best sunset on a beach, the best camera settings; each and every one of these elements contribute to a better picture while the absence of any will result in something you would never hang on the wall. Black and white photography has its own distinct air of classic art. There are details and expressions which would never be captured…
How does it sound to have your own private labirynth where you can go to and escape the outside world. The least to be said about such a concept is that it sounds ironic. However, Art Design Craft, an artist company led by Benjamin Nordsmark shows how you can add depth and dimension to a regular living room table by adding a labyrinth inside of it. We do find quite amazing. Benjamin Nordsmark is a furniture and cabinet designer, a man that uses his education and skills to develop neo-modern designs to be applied in household environments. He has a…

Ever wondered how those mind-bending camera shots are being taken? You know, those shots that really make the audience wonder: “how did they manage to get into that angle?”. Blackmagic launched a very drone-friendly digital film camera that has RAW capabilities and features a considerable number of expansion slots. According to producers, Blackmagic Micro Camera is the miniaturized version of a Super 16mm professional movie camera …
Usually, when it comes to a smaller size, prices tend to run away in the opposite direction, rocketing sky high in order to cover production and technology costs along with, let’s face it, the brand name. Still, Kickstarter just got hold of another great campaign, promoting Chip: the $9 computer. It’s not only cheap, but it’s also small; and by small we mean tiny. To be more concise, Chip is almost the size of a lighter. However small it may be, this less-than pocket computer packs quite some impressive power. It houses a 1Ghz CPU, 512MB of RAM and has…
Do you want luxury? Because this is how you get luxury. Do you want opulence? Because this is how you get opulence. Born from a collaboration between Goldfinch Pianos and Based Upon artist studio, “The Baby” grand piano stands out in front of everything else around it, no matter where you will place it, wether it’s a grand opera hall or a decently large living room of a mansion. [adsense300gray]There is hardly much to tell about this piano in order to express its visual impact or its magnitude; photos speak mostly for themselves. However, there are a few ideas you…
Does it look like lock-picking could be done so fast just in movies? Well, think again. Probably anyone could learn how to take out the locksmith inside them and figure out how to pick a lock. You have to start easy, then increasing difficulty until it gets really challenging. Guess what? The guys from Markershed are offering a lockpick school kit that fits inside a wooden box. That’s right, you will get your own tool set and locks to play with until your hands start getting used to the technique. [adsense300gray] The whole set is placed inside an attractive wooden…
You’ve got to hate that fine line of dust that never goes into the dust pan while you are brooming. It gets thinner and thinner, but it never actually disappears. Also, the need to constantly bend over and broom your way through the house can get really uncomfortable for your back, producing pains that might last on the long run. Still, if you manage to fill the dust pan with all the debris, what do you do if you’re out of trash bags? [adsense300gray]Bruno, a new type of vacuum trash can, seems to have solved all these small but annoying…

We gotta face it: iPhones are great when it comes to multimedia activities you can perform on them, but every single photo, swipe or mp3 sucks the battery dry. Turn on the wi-fi and you probably will have to run for the charger after a few hours of use. You can’t replace the battery on your own as iPhones are designed in such way that they won’t allow such a replacement. So, what is there to be done? The H2PRO case promises to solve the power problem, offering the possibility to double your battery life along with added waterproof and…

At some point, everyone’s a barista, or at least trying to do the magic of one by mixing out drinks and hoping for the best. While from personal experience I can tell this technique fails in 98% of cases, this new gadget from Sodastream, the MIX, is ready to replace my two left hands and created better bubbled drinks than I could do. [adsense300gray] The MIX features internet connectivity and it’s Bluetooth ready. This way, you will be able to command the machine from your smartphone. Put together a recipe and MIX will provide the beverage in no time, with…
It is a common fashion today to blend classics with modern design elements. Some companies manage to successfully develop the mix, while others fail to. Fortunately, the Anicorn Black & Red Watches are on the bright side of the horizon. A Swiss custom made typeface beneath a sapphire crystal glass and onto concentric disk system creates a fresh take on traditional elegance, as developers state. [adsense300gray] The Anicorn watches are using Miyota 8215 automatic movement along with three hands. It features 21 jewels and has a battery that powers the watch for up to 40 hours of working time.
