Art on Loudspeakers

March 28th, 2010

Elac Art-Edition speakersArt was considered something far away from everyday life,  but after years now, we pursue artful life! We love art and want our life to be elegant and beautiful, so we buy artful things to decorate our home so as to show our taste. Loudspeaker’s the last thing I would relate with art, I’ve seen elegant ones, but no artful one ever, but yet life surprises me again! Elac just unveiled its Art-Edition speakers for connoisseurs!

High-end audio is turning into art with now more attention paid to the design and finish of the cabinet besides the specs. Elac, the German audio manufacturer, has launched its Art-Edition loudspeakers at IFA, which are real design pieces with high gloss finish and attractive decorative motifs to complement plush interiors. The art series loudspeakers feature “decoration tattoos,” the foils are tissue-thin, UV-resistant and protect against scratches or water and are very durable. Depending on your personal style, you can select from tone-in-tone solutions, such as white matte motifs on high gloss white surfaces, or if you prefer a high-contrast staging can select for silver or dark gray tattoos on white high gloss or titan shadow speakers. And if the motifs no longer fit into your style, the tattoos can be removed. The highlight of the collection is a limited edition of their successful model FS 247 in the “De Stijl dress” which is inspired from the painter Piet Mondrian ELAC.

These extravagant speakers will appeal to wealthy music lovers and design connoisseurs alike, for whom exclusivity outweighs everything else. Really stunning, they truly will become the light spot in your house and totally show your high taste! Fantastic.

Cute Box From Samsung

March 23rd, 2010

Shakeable MP3 Player from SamsungWhat a cute box! The pure bright color, the clear look, this is perfect for summer, totally cool. And what do you think this little box is? Ok, it’s a cute MP3 player, cut huh? I admit I do always love cute MP3 players, because you know, they’re cute, fashionable, and they bring nice music too, totally adorable! You can enjoy the little thing in anyway, it’s totally delightful to get such a cutie.

Well, this is the shakeable MP3 Player from Samsung named ‘TicToc’. Announced during Samsung’s CES press conference, the TicToc is believed to be a perfect alternative to Apple’s iPod Shuffle. Based on a built-in motion sensor, TicToc allows the users to change tunes by shaking the player slowly or quickly. The more slowly you shake the player, a much gentler music will be chosen, and vice versa.(But I’m really confused how this little machine’s going to know what music is gentle, or which one is intense.) There’s a big button on one end to control the volume and a headphone port on the other. Turn the button to face the ground when you want to decrease the volume and make sure the button faces up if you’d like to increase the volume. The Samsung TicToc could support MP3, WMA, OGG, and FLAC audio formats with 12 hours of battery life. It will soon be available in two versions (2GB and 4GB capacities) but still no words on price. Anyway, really a cute little thing I would love to have for the warmer season, looks pretty cool…

Platinum Nissan Z432 for Tomica’s 40th Anniversary

March 14th, 2010

platinum Nissan Fairlady Z432 for Tomica from Ginza TanakaWe all love cars to some extent, since we can’t buy many cars, toy cars become very popular with both children and adults. They’re quite adorable, and it’s really exciting to have so many cars we like! Among all these nice toy cars out there, this one must be the most exquisite and luxury one, it is actually a gift for Tomic’ 40th anniversary from Ginza Tanaka.

In horner of Tomica’s 40th anniversary, jeweler Ginza Tanaka dedicates itself to offer a one-of-a-kind replica of the toymaker’s die-cast 1970 Nissan Fairlady Z432. Demonstrating its artistic force, Ginza Tanaka with its blinged design sense has faithfully replicated the Z432 in platinum. Featuring the opening doors and the wheels that can spin (very gorgeous), the platinum Z432 is 7cm long and weighs 210 grams.

Well, how’s it look? I think this is the one toy car that will really make me scream like it’s a real one! And if it were to be made available for purchase (which it isn’t), it’s estimated worth is about $80,000. Even though, Japanese Nostalgic Car still jokes in its headline that even at that price, still cheaper than the real thing. As for this platinum gorgeous bauble, it’s being publicly shown at the Hong Kong International Jewelery Show this month.

‘Disco Light’ USB Stick

March 09th, 2010

Transparent USB Memory DiskLiving in a world of information, we can indeed use some help of these cute little guys, technically they were born to meet our needs of getting data on the go. But after so many of them were made, there comes a demand of more practical and beautiful ones. And then this is it, a transparent-colorful USB stick.

How can it be both transparent and colorful? Good question, let’s see! Inspired by Japanese Soma-Toh, Mac Funamizu has come up with the Funny USB Memory Stick that features an interesting and direct way to present its spare capacity. Compared with conventional USB memory disks needing to be connected to PC to show its usage conditions, this device presents its spare capacity with disco lights: no lights stand for “empty stick”, pink light for “images stored”, blue for “documents”, green for “movies” and “all lights are on ” for “full memory”. So this is it, when it’s empty it’s transparent, and it becomes colorful when data are stored! Very cool huh…

Beautiful and practical, this is exactly what we wanted! Just hope they’ll come up with a big stomach!

For the First time, Diamonds Give Time

March 02nd, 2010

Diamond Fiction by TAG HeuerYes, for the first time, diamonds give time! Ahhhh, luxury again, what should we do if without it?! We’ve seen the Zadora Timepieces collection, and we know watches can be incredibly gorgeous and pricey, so now let’s see how elegant they can be!

The astonishing alliance of high-end jewellery and avant-garde technology integrated into an audacious version of a new timepiece: the first time that diamonds give time. The Diamond Fiction is an exceptional watch, both glamorous and avant-garde.

An exceptional innovation, TAG Heuer’s latest haute joaillerie creation does not look like a watch, but rather a piece of haute joaillerie jewellery; it is precious and pure, and loaded with sexy space-age technology, designed exclusively for the fashion-forward female.

This luxury watch set with 879 Top Wesselton (5.8 carats) VS/SI (1.1 mm), full-cut, diamonds hides a surprising innovation: the digital display through the diamonds. 54 of the 879 diamonds have been cut in a revolutionary way to provide a very high-definition concentration of the light emitted by 54 LEDs (light emitting diodes) that display the time in glowing red. The red is echoed in the satin strap that gives a warm and silky look contrasting with the brilliance of the multiple diamonds. Very “diamond” indeed!

And as for the price, it is Inestimable (as stated by company), and only three of these exceptional haute couture timepieces have been produced. Sounds like really difficult to get your hands on…

Compared with the Zadora Timepieces collection, this Diamond Fiction is much less sculpture but much more elegant, I think it’s perfect for fashion-forward ladies! Well, let’s see how far these luxury watches can go…

Le Male USB Stick, Smells Nice

February 24th, 2010

Le Male USB Stick By Jean Paul GaultierAs a modern social resident in the world today, data on the go is really very important for all of us, like we’ve already known. So as to meet the needs, flash disks were then born, and all the companies have been trying to make them more beautiful in order to survive in a region full of fierce competitions and make profit. Fashion world makes no exception and comes with excellent ideas and nice prices (as it always does).

Now let’s take look at the Le Male USB Stick presented by Jean Paul Gaultier. And that’s something I really didn’t see coming! We love the scent, but Jean Paul Gaultier’s Le Male is now turned into a USB stick! The fragrance bottle was an amazing artwork when it first comes out, and now there’s something more about it. A USB interface was attached which makes it more than just beautiful, it is now very practical too!

Oh, wait, there’s more! Not only this looks like JP Gaultier legendary perfume, but it also smells like it! You plug Gaultier’s Le Male USB Key and you’ll feel the mythical scent slowly filling up the air. There’s no word whether this very special gadget is still available (it came with the perfume during last’s summer sales, in selected Boots stores), but I think it’s a brilliant idea for fashionable geeky people. Wouldn’t you buy a gadget that smells like your favorite fragrance? Or the fragrance of someone you love?

I’d love to have one as long as the price tag is reasonable (quite not possible though). And just asking, “Did they do the female perfume bottle version?”

A New Way to “Light” your life

February 22nd, 2010

squeeze LED lightsThe most wonderful power in the world is light which illuminates in the dark, turns the darkness into light! We all have many different lights, for different use, and if you ever know me, I love cute lights, they’re like visually the ideas of life! Well, here’s some interesting adorable lights for you, definitely will light your life! Check.

I never thought that I’d actually call LED lights cute, delightful, or cuddly. But these indeed are. Designed by Diana Lin, the d-light Bubbles are made for squeezing—just don’t be startled by the squeaky woosh sound when you fondle the silicone. Because of the material, they felt really good in hand, and squeezing’s always fun whether you’re six or sixty! The lights are now available for $140. Looks expensive, and I can’t tell you whether that’s a good deal though, because I haven’t been keeping up on the street price for gropes, but let’s just agree that these are rather neat LED lights.

Anyway, I would love to have some of these cute little lights, looks really adorable to me. Enjoy the squeezing and snuggling fun!
