antoine fritsch: t2o bamboo electrical bike

designboom


“the 't20' bamboo bike is a prototype by french designer antoine fritsch as part of an ongoing research project to investigate themes exploring changing behaviors related to sustainable development. although the body is made out of bamboo, other elements include cork, steel, aluminum and rubber. surprisingly, the small motor, which is hidden under the footrest, can reach a cruising speed of 35 km/hr (21.7 mph) for a range of about 40 km/hr (24.8 mph). the acceleration works similar to a scooter, employing manual power from the user to push the bike forward until it gets going, while a hybrid cork structure acts as a fusion between a seat and backrest for a comfortable ride. ”

“Designers Farrah Sit and Dana D’Amico work with wood, brass, porcelain and vegetable tan leather to create desk sets that will pull together your working materials in a neat and tidy space. My favorite part of the collection is the pencil cup that functions like an old-school straw dispenser (but magnetically locks back into place). ”

Tiny wooden Apple Speaker

whitezine


“When wood design meets high technology it gets pretty amazing. This tiny wooden Apple Speaker made for iPhone, iPad or iPod, is 100% handcrafted by a korean artist who was selling it on etsy a couple of hours ago. It probably doesn’t make a big difference sound-wise, but we have to admit it, it brings style and cuteness to an office.”
