I saw this collapsing door design a while back, but thought it was still worth sharing. Pay attention to the final seconds of the video, as the narrator talks about driving into the 21st Century with these hide-away doors. Every time I see this design I wonder why it never made it to a major automobile market.
These bathroom tiles are a wonderful way to marry form and function. A pull-out drawer and a towel hook built into the tile is a simple, clever and ingenious use of space. Hideaway spaces always seem to work well in smaller areas like the kitchen and bathroom.
Here is a clever way to store small valuables, but a bad way to transfer electricity. Touted as a great way to fool maids and snoopy visitors, this surge protector vault is lightweight, visually authentic and even has an LED that glows red to fool the eye. Spy gear designs are always cool finds.
I came across one of these ceramic coffee cups over the weekend while shopping with my family, and was completely tricked into believing it was a throw-away cup. Once opened, it even reveals a silicone sleeve, just like the cardboard ones that all of the fancy coffee shops wrap around your paper cup. The double-walled cup maintains the temperature of your beverage longer than any throw-away cup, however, and it doesn’t attract the awe of onlookers like other reusable cups and mugs that scream, “Hey, I am trying to save the world here, one cup at a time!”
This may look like an electronics device, but it definitely isn’t. It is a wallet that secures your personal items from being compromised electronically. RFID theft, or radio frequency identity theft, can happen without you even knowing. This clamshell of a storage space blocks any person who may try to grab your information from the Visa, Mastercard, and American Express cards in your purse or pocket. Now you can forget about hackers in crowds electronically taking what is your’s.
