hard truth

this informational brochure is a design by changzhi lee. its purpose? to raise awareness about the effects of global warming. and it quite beautifully demonstrates its cause. it forms an iceberg, complete with little polar bears. but as you unfold it to reveal the information, the iceberg melts and leaves the bears swimming for their lives. all the mundane hoohaa about global warming we are flooded with has become a sort of white noise today. a simple and alluring design like this really makes you stop and think about your own footprint.

how cute

thought this was a novel idea. made by dr wow lab. it looks mighty tempting, but unfortunately - or would that be fortunately? probably fortunately - its not edible. It is a "chocolate" (actually wax) magnet. what is particularly nice about it is that it can be broken up like a real slab, and used to suit your requirements. pretty cute.

help yourself

this is a pretty cool idea. apparently by installing this system in your bar/restaurant you save money. and waste less. pretty interesting. saves fighting over cleavage to grab some attention at the bar. or waiting for that ditzy waitress. and you calculate what you spend per ml. i think a lot of draught fans will love this one. beer finished? just lean over and fill her up again. hey presto. happiness.

how thoughtful

i love this. so simple. completely functional. http://www.alexhulme.com/
