The Soho

The Soho, The Bar (AOMI, Tokyo)


Images & Texts retrienved from http://wonder-wall.com


The bar lounge is situated at a special location at the top of the building facing the ocean, and it is an exceptional place exclusively for the tenants of the SOHO. A modest chic atmosphere fills the entire space while luxurious materials such as acrylic bar for the chandelier, wood for walls and ceiling, mirrors, and marble are used throughout the interior. The counter, lounge, and the private rooms are placed with effective use of height gradations embracing both gentleness and excitement to provide comfort under any situation.

Mac Book Pro 2012

Yc, "this is awesome, awesome... mamamia!"

Mac Book Pro with Retina Display
Retrieved from http://www.apple.com

The all-new MacBook Pro started with a blank slate — without the constraints of legacy technology. That gave us the freedom to imagine something radical, something entirely different. A notebook so thin, so light, and so powerful. A notebook designed for the future, but ready to use today. At just 0.71 inch thin and 4.46 pounds, this MacBook Pro sets a new standard for how power looks and feels.

Cafe Restaurant Bar Shin

Cafe Restaurant Bar Shin. Ebisu, Tokyo

The theme of this Italian restaurant is what of a dinning room in one’s home away from home, with a hint of the extraordinary in a cozy atmosphere. Inside the restaurant, where the floors are sunken, there are counter and table seating as well as a private dinning room. These three areas compose an especially hospitable space as a whole, starting with the welcoming service of the bartender at the bar who can proceed either to the dinning area next to the lively kitchen or the calm private dinning room with ease.

Square Coke Bottle

Yc, "hmm... hardly see the gas bubble dy..."

Andrew Kim's Square Coke Bottle Design
Texts & Images retrieved from http://www.core77.com

CCS student Andrew Kim's Coke bottle redesign is an ambitious take on the iconic bottle, going square in the name of eco-friendliness. The new bottle shape would take up far less space in shipping pallets per bottle, and a push-up in the bottom large enough to accommodate the cap of the bottle beneath it would enable stacking. Said cap is offset for better drinkability.

The Empty Memory


Yc says, "what a beautiful flash drive. but, is bit expensive.. =.=!"


Empty Memory: Beautiful and Clever Flash Drives
Retrieved from http://www.logical-art.co.uk/


Empty Memory from Logical Art visualizes the abstract space of electronic memory, allowing its owner to fill the voided space with their invisible data. Since flash drives have continually decreased in size while adding space, the hollow area poetically implies the "invisible technology."


The 4G flash drive is designed as jewelry and comes in two forms: Structure, which features a geometric frame, and the Transparent style, capped with clear acrylic. The pieces are cast from stainless steel and hand finished in black, white or a rose gold. Logical Art is founded by designers Hanhsi Chen and Yookyung Shin.

In doing so theydiscovered that each wood has its own unique character and therefore requiresindividual techniques in order for its true character to really shine. So muchmore than just flooring. When “Mareiner Holzindustrie” became simply “Mareiner Holz” it marked not only the adoption of a clear positioning strategy but alsothe establishment of “Wood Treatment” as a new market category. In addition, anemotional world was created by this courageous brand personality, which isespecially evident in the aesthetics of the company’s products: 100% naturalbeauty. As the company’s brand mark, Bert the woodpecker is the whimsicalrepresentative of the agile outdoorsmen.

The Wallet

Yc, "Think twice. A simple twist is how creativity begins."


The Wallet Of The Future Is The Wallet Of The Past
All Text and images are retrieved from http://www.fastcodesign.com


Astro Studios spent a year rethinking the next generation of wallet--one that’s beyond the credit card, but still holds an ID, cash, business card, and, sure, any last looming credit cards in your pocket, too. What they came up with is , a multi-tiered wallet hand-stitched from a single piece of leather. It’s thin in the pocket but heirloom-quality in the hand; the vegetable tanned leather options invoke a grandfather-approved design that certainly brings to mind the mantra, “what’s old is new again,” and Astro Studios is the first to admit it.
