Wouldn’t it be a boon if you had a system that told you about your upcoming flat tire? I’m not talking
about some random card-pulling session but a proper system like the Flat Tire Warning Light. The de
-vice combines a Tire Pressure Sensor, LED Technology and Vibration Generation Chip to tell you in
advance that a flat tire is coming your way. Get ready!

These buildings were the first cubic houses in Holland, a country better known for its beautiful
spindly buildings that tower above passers-by. The concept behind this unusual design was to
create a living roof in which people could have sufficient space in an area of high density housing.
After three test versions the “woonwoud” (living woods) were finally built in the area of Helmond,
arranged around the Theater ‘t Speelhuis. Now one of the houses remains unoccupied so that visit
-ors can take a look and get a feel for the unconventional use of interior space~

IOTA is a deck of regulation playing cards by Joe Doucet that dallies with the idea: how much you
can take away while still maintaining a playable deck? Simple geometric symbols are reductive ver
-sions of hearts, clubs, diamonds and spades. While it is necessary to mark the back of regulation
playing cards, Joe’s done so with a minimal diagonal line instead of the overly ornamental versions
used at your granny’s bridge club. LOVE. So. Much.

The Glass Sign is a solar powered pedestrian crossing that is quite funky. The sign stays mostly off and
when a pedestrian needs to use it, they just swipe the signal pole to activate the light. The duration of
the signal depends upon the width of the road to be crossed. I love the awesome glow-red-effect the
lamp has on for the night~

Architectural studio Elii has developed a pilot house called the JF-Kit House to look at how it’s
possible to generate your own household energy while keeping fit at the same time. The house
includes a variety of exercises, including a crankshaft in the kitchen, a cycling pump in the living
room and an energy absorbing tatami for sit-ups in the front room. So not only could it be possible
to reduce your environmental impact, but getting a full-body workout could also be part of the pro
-cess, leaving you with nothing but benefits.

You can carry your own booze to events and parties without attracting too much attention with the
iFlask, a drink container that cleverly masquerades as an iPhone. The iFlask is made from polyethy
-lene and polycarbonate, making it lightweight, smooth, and sturdy. It’s toxic free and can hold five
ounces of liquid. Users can pour and drink from what should be the headphone jack, which opens and
closes with a sliding switch. The back is fitted with a bottle opener made of stainless steel. Each iFlask
comes with a free funnel for easy refilling. The project was initially unsuccessful on Kickstarter, but
the iFlask can be pre-ordered from the official website~
