Even though I don’t want one of these at home I really dig the innovative design. It doubles up beautifully both as a sofa and as a bench.

Over at Cellphonebeat you can browse through a huge gallery containing some of the best concept phones of 2008 (and I think some of them are a bit older than that as well). Above you can see the concept Siemens phone called Gigaset Eco Leaf from Formwelt Studio. Anyway, a nice gallery.

This got to be one of the coolest home made designs I have seen in a while. It is a bowl made out of plastic war model soldiers. The bowl is designed by the UK designer Dominic Wilcox.

This kind of creative barcode design is completely new to me, but apparently it’s quite common in Asia - or at least Japan. Here’s a full gallery of some unusual product barcodes. Please comment if you have seen similar designs in your country (or if you are missing out on them as well).

The idea behind this compact desk is nothing but brilliant! In a few seconds you can convert the 75 cm / 30-inch cabinet into a full-size 140 cm / 55-inch, desk. You can get your own for $500.

It was many, many years since a NES cartridge left the Nintendo factory in Japan, but here’s a bunch of fan made imaginary games and artwork. Cool thing.

The Sony Sountina NSA-PF1 doesn’t look like anything you have seen before. The top of the 6 foot speaker is made of glass and emits sound in a 360-degree circle. I guess you should avoid tripping on the speaker cable as a pair will cost you $11 800….
