ClockTwo Is An Artwork That Tells Time

gizno — Sat, 22 Aug 2009 01:26:30 +0000

While it doesn’t qualify as a real clock (it doesn’t tell time to the latest minute) it will look great in your living room. It has a bright red glossy panel and tells time in 5-minute intervals. If you’d like to know the exact minute, you’d have to look at the four dots on each of its four corners. With it’s price of $1600, you’re buying more of an artwork than a clock.

Designer Zhdanova Irina came up with a round sofa bookshelf that can be disassembled into six sections. To keep it from rolling, the whole structure can be blocked up. Cool!

Mousetrap Table

This mousetrap table is amazingly weird in concept. It has a tube where a mouse can crawl in. A trip sensor shuts the mouse’s way to prevent escape. Once the mouse finds its way into the microbial fuel cell, it is obliterated and turned into fuel that is used to trap the next unsuspecting vermin.

The G1 pool table is great to look at and play pool in. It has a stylishly modern streamlined design, perfect for a bachelor pad’s gameroom. The surface is made of Vitrik that recreates a playing surface made out of felt and is reinforced by a glass bed. The pockets connect into a ramp that send the balls swirling around the base of the table onto a rack.

The Toaster Trebuchet allows your toast to be hurled across the room. Can’t see the point? Actually this innovative kitchen appliance is the precedent to breakfast games that will wake you up each morning. Instead of playing hot potato, why not hot toast? Or see how many toasted bagels you can catch with your mouth. Your imagination’s the limit!
