Yanko Design - Form Beyond Function |
| Posted: 04 Apr 2017 11:01 AM PDT I never thought something as ubiquitous as the bottle opener needed redesigning. The GrOpener proved me wrong for sure. The video above goes to demonstrate how incredibly easy it is to open a bottle with just a single hand, without bending the cap, or have it flying off in a random direction once it pops open. The GrOpener (Grab+Opener) is designed specifically for single handed use. Making things easy for both abled as well as disabled people, the GrOpener sits comfortably on a bottle top and pops it open with an unbelievably easy trigger action. The GrOpener’s design makes sure the cap isn’t bent or warped in the opening process, while a magnetic piece within the GrOpener catches the cap as soon as it dislodges from the bottle neck. Well, now unless you’re Bruce Lee with a pair of nunchucks, I don’t see you opening a bottle better than that! Designer: Mark Manger BUY IT HERE: $9.99 $16.00 |
| Posted: 04 Apr 2017 09:00 AM PDT Inspired by cosmology, the UNIVERSE concept watch is unrivaled in depth and beauty. Both components that make the watch work and those crafted to define it are visible through its prismatic face. The visibility of the internal mechanism gives it the look of artisanal craftsmanship and complexity fused with the dynamic of metal in movement. Integrated indicators for heavenly occurrences ensure the wearer never misses a meteor shower or moon phase. Designer: Gergo Palkovics |
| Posted: 04 Apr 2017 06:33 AM PDT While most fidget toys are designed to keep you engaged, the Mokuru is designed to keep you entertained! Inspired by probably the earliest fidget-toy ever, the pen cap, Mokuru is a talented little topsy-turvy tabletop thing that does cartwheels when you push it around any surface. Unlike most fidget-gadgets, Mokuru isn’t something you use in the background. The Mokuru is designed to captivate, keeping your hands as well as eyes occupied as its beech-wood body does back-flip after back-flip in its entertaining style. The Mokuru performs flips with a hypnotic flair, and with a little practice, one can go from simple flips to more complex routines capable of impressing anyone! While playing with the Mokuru is definitely fun, it also helps by relieving stress while improving hand-eye coordination as well as boosting concentration. The Mokuru is the perfect toy for people with ADHD, allowing them to fidget, yet stay focused. Spun out of a single piece of beech wood, the Mokuru’s curves are what give it its gymnastic abilities. The main body is covered on both ends with silicone pads that protect surfaces from getting scratched or damaged. Handy and pocketable, the Mokuru has the same footprint as a USB thumb drive, or a lipstick… allowing you to carry it anywhere for instant entertainment. Hey, bottle flips are yesterday’s news… Are you up for the Mokuru flip challenge? Designer: Masakazu Node BUY IT HERE: $10.50 $15.00 |
| Posted: 04 Apr 2017 03:00 AM PDT Fashion moves FAST which results in many garments and accessories being thrown out prematurely and unnecessarily. Designed with this in mind, MODIBAG attempts to enhance the functionality of the commonplace bag in order to extend its life. A compound word made up of “modify” and “bag”, MODIBAG is fully customizable and adjustable. Made from a single sheet that can be folded in a wide variety of ways, MODIBAG allows consumers to modify the size, shape, and form to create bags as they desire. Beyond just a product, it encourages people to work together to suggest possibilities! The design considers how various everyday contents are carried around and explores how one single bag can possess almost infinite multitasking potential for any activity or occasion.

| Posted: 04 Apr 2017 12:00 AM PDT The right sights, sounds and smells can enhance your sleep cycle like no other. The Bifrost system takes each into account to not only ensure you get the best nights sleep possible, but that you wake up feeling refreshed and alive! The 3-part design consists of an aromatic diffuser, gradient light, and a speaker/radio in a form that design enthusiasts will find familiar! Working in tandem, they create an atmosphere of calm and relaxation when you are dozing off. When it’s time to wake up, they’ll gently ease you into the day with light, natural sounds, and awakening scents fine-tuned to your liking. Designer: Sen Lin |
| Posted: 03 Apr 2017 03:00 PM PDT He’s clearly 2017’s meme of the year! The Turkish chef took everyone by storm with the way he salted his meat steak with dripping swag. The Pinch salt and pepper shakers are designed to be gripped in a similar fashion, as compared to the way we grip regular salt and pepper shakers. These shakers pay tribute to the classic way of sprinkling a ‘pinch’ of salt on your food, but we can’t help but reference Salt Bae! Now it’s stuck in your heads too! Designer: Luke Mastrangelo |
| Once you go track, you never go back! Posted: 03 Apr 2017 01:00 PM PDT Before you wonder why the Pluma Bike looks like a massive padlock, let me tell you that the bike’s aesthetic couldn’t be more appropriate for its function. The Pluma is a Track Bike, focusing on being immensely resistant to stress, force, and pressure while minimizing drag… allowing it to cut through the track like a knife across butter in the summer! Pluma’s bike frame is crafted entirely out of carbon fiber, with a PVC Foam core. The rear end of the bike is entirely clad by the frame, allowing air to be guided in a manner that gives Pluma its aerodynamics. Given that it’s a track bike, its handlebars dip below the seat level, allowing riders to sit in the racing position. The Pluma also has a single gear ratio and comes without brakes, a standard for all track bikes. Designer: Nuno Teixeira |
