File under awesome!


This bag, and a number of other ones from the same brand, was hanging nonchalantly at a lifestyle and design store in Hong Kong and I had to take a closer look because of the cartoonish lines. What did I discover? The bag is completely flat, like file folder flat, and the angled perspective was built into the design. Now that's a way to turn heads!

Eight arms to hold you


The first piece from the Animal Chair collection, this design is both fantastical and disturbing, like something out of a gothic version of Pirates of the Caribbean. And I can't help imagining how mindblowing it would be to use this as a piano bench for a baby grand!

Just shoot me


I would love to thrill all my photographer friends with this fun disguised gift. On the outside, it looks like a regular camera lens, but once the lenscap comes off, it's a cup!

iWant


With the gamut of iPod chargers and docking stations available on the market, it can be hard to find something truly unique. Then along comes this ingenious piece... Made with wood from a forest in New York, this charger fits all iPod devices aside from the shuffle.

A perfect match


These have got to be the cheekiest his and hers rings ever and are perfect for the couple who want something non-traditional. Available in gold, silver, or brass, it's not hard to figure out which one is the male ring. They even screw fit together perfectly!
