Double Duty Fork

July 11th, 2010

Knock,knife and forkWe use knife and fork everyday to have our meals, and most of us are really used to this knife + fork thing, however someone are apparently no fond of this, so they come up with an idea of combine the two together! Yes, let’s see the Knork.

Personally I don’t think it’s a nice idea to combine the knife and fork into one eating utensil, because you’ll still have to use the other hand to hold the food while one of the hands is busy with the Knork. So why not just leave those two utensils in different hands? But for people who love double-duty items, the Knork is indeed attractive. It contains no sharp edges, so you needn’t worry that you’ll accidentally cut your mouth open.

So, this is it. It is really a nice fork if you just love double duty things, but for people like me, usual forks are just good enough.

Wonder Water

June 07th, 2010

Sexy Touchless FaucetDo you ever feel boring about conventional faucets which you have to touch to turn on and down the water? I guess you do, because that means your hands are never clean enough, and we do not like that. So that’s one of the reasons why most public places have replaced those conventional faucets with modern touchless ones. But here today we’re going to talk about is not just a touchless faucet, it is much more than just that!

First, the exterior design is neat and beautiful, I really love the compact fluid shape and smooth feel. But the most amazing part of this high technology faucet is not this. The magic faucet is completely controlled by gestures, a wave of the hand will change its temperature and flow rate. You move your hands backward, the flow rate goes down, otherwise the flow rate goes up; You move your hands away from the side of the faucet, the water runs from single stream into shower-like multi-stream, otherwise, do the reversal. Also, the beautiful faucet has two sides for you to move your hands around, one for hot water and another for cold water. There’s even two lights to generally indicate the temperature too! I think this faucet is totally great for a modern kitchen, or maybe a bathroom too.

If you want more information on this, you can check out the designer’s website at Jasper Dekker.com, there’s even videos to check out. Believe me, the videos of the working prototype really will convince you that this is a neat idea!
