Shelter Cart

This Shelter Cart by Gregor Timlin. The aim of the project was to design a tool for a particular group of homeless people who collect bottles from the streets so they can collect a small income from the recycling plants in order to sustain themselves. The project was not seen a solution to the social problem of the homeless but instead as an method of raising awareness about the issue. Great project! It also provide a place that the homeless people can sleep or seat in this cart.

Touch Sight Camera

Touch Sight is a digital camera for visually impaired people. This camera records sounds and displays imagery via 3D embossing allowing the person to relive the moment by two other senses, hearing and touch. It includes a unique feature which records sound for three seconds after pressing the shutter button. Touch Sight does not have an LCD but instead has a lightweight, flexible Braille display sheet which displays a 3D image by embossing the surface, allowing the user to touch the image. The sound file and picture document combine to become a touchable photo that is saved in the device and can be uploaded to share with others--and downloaded to other Touch Sight cameras. One of the 2008 International Design Excellence Awards (IDEA) winners.

Shift - For Those Not good at Riding the Bike

For those who can not ride the bicycle. The Shift Bicycle helps children learn how to balance on their own. This shifting rear wheels help balance the bike at slow speeds and removing the fear of possible injury. As the child builds up forward momentum, the wheels shift inward due to decreased weight on the rear wheels, thus causing the balance to gradually shift from the bicycle to the child. The bike also features a swinging gear that allows rear wheels to go in and out. It likes a trike. Designed by Matt Grossman, this design awarded at the 9th International Bicycle Design Competition in Taipei.

Snow Globes by Walter Martin & Paloma Munoz

When I was younger, I hava a snow globe which is a Christmas gift. The pretty Snow Globes were created by artists Walter Martin and Paloma Munoz. These globes features included amazing miniature people scenes and filled with water and a touch of alcohol that acts as a preservative. They are recent works - Travelers series globes($750). They are a limited edition as only 250 signed snow globes were made. "These two artists have been working together since 1993. They sculpt miniature figures set in snowy outside scenes that depict sometimes horrible situations. Each snow globe tells a story and it¡¯s up to the viewer to fill in the blanks of those stories. Some of these miniature people seem trapped in a fairy-tale like story. " More pics check out.
