STPL Commercial
Nothing beats home-made fan commercials, and this is one, done for Staple Design without it being actually made by STPL, is one of the best in recent memory. With a cool vintage twist, the commercial is certainly an instant classic.

Zamak
"I like working fast to have a quick result, that’s why I use simple forms to start. Then I leave the creation for awhile—hours, days, weeks—and [when I come back to] work on it again [I] add accessories, details, refining lights, shadows, texture. What really [matters to me are] not details but the [overall seductive] aspect."
-Olivier Bucheron aka Zamak

GREG LYNN'S RECYCLED TOY FURNITURE
Greg Lynn has won the golden lion for the best installation project in the international exhibition at the biennale, for a series of furniture made from recycled children’s toys.
The objects include four different-sized tables with plastic panelite tops, a low bench,a storage wall, a coat rack and cylindrical shoe closet.From the artist:
'my father worked for a corporation which produced blister packages', says lynn, 'plastics were the future and I was surrounded by it. now, almost half century later petrolium-based commodities are becoming new luxury items. I have two kids and they consume toys. I recycle their unused toys into 'bricks' to create furniture and usable objects.'the toys are laser scanned and digitized into a computer, their intersections are defined as cutting paths, a robot cuts their joints and connections with precision.the toy bricks then are welded together with a tool used to repair car fenders.

The Hi-Can features beautifully designed equipment that allows you to surf the web, watch movies, play games, and listen to music all from the comfort of your bed. There is even a slick looking control panel on the headboard that allows you to control other gadgets in the room.
At this point, the Hi-Can looks as though it is only a concept that is "coming soon."

Ferrari Motorcycle
Amir Glinik began researching his Ferrari motorcycle project back in 2005, worked on some of the sketches in 2006 and has been updating and evolving the project ever since. ‘Vintage and modern Ferrari projects influence my design. It’s a mix of what I find to be the best Ferrari lines, with the latest technology I could think of in terms of the engine and driveline,’ says Glinik. 'When you think of a Ferrari motorcycle, you probably imagine a V12 hanging between two wheels, but that was not my idea. For me, it was slicing a V4 out of one of the bigger Ferrari engines,’ says Glinik, who’s used an imaginary V4 based on the Ferrari Enzo’s mighty V12.
Looks amazing! Like an updated revision of Kaneda's bike from Akira!
