Nintendo’s non-traditional interface for the Wii console lends itself to any number of odd controller hacks and designs, and the latest is this prototype Wiispray can. Part of Martin Lihs’ final thesis at Bauhaus-University in Weimar, Germany, the can-style casing contains a dismembered Wiimote coupled to a nozzle button. It can be used to manipulate an on-screen virtual spraycan, with different paints and color options that are controlled by realistic graffiti movements.
Anyone who tends to get annoyed over the appearance of either networking cables or just plain electrical cords. Can now have the Leave it to Beaver solution, just slip a white picket fence around them.
If you enjoyed the movie The Time Machine, then you’ll probably enjoy Art Donovan’s designs. All of them remind me of the Sci-Fi antique style featured throughout that movie.
No matter how slick the adaptor you plug into your wall, if the socket it’s going into looks ugly then the Good Housekeeping people will never be around to photoshoot your home. Thankfully Bocci are on hand with an alternative to cracked plastic outlets or brass-finished surrounds.

This quirky little laptop case features the old icon for My Documents. Although it is still in the stage of, please contact designer to snag one, it is still fun to look at.
Many of us have lived in apartments or homes that have had awful views of the outdoors from the window. My blinds have actually never opened, a pretty view of the lovely parking lot is just not enough of a motivation to open those blinds.
The designer of this very odd GameCube was asked to choose a product and then redesign it based on the dominant emotion it is associated with. I find it incredibly hilarious that Kathryn Elliot decided frustration was the emotion that belonged with the GameCube.
The Energy Saver Bar is a lot like that gadget that Belkin came up with, but far less cool. Essentially you plug in all of your home theater equipment, preferably the kind that won’t suffer drastically from having its power completely cut, and then when you are done, you turn ever thing off, and then hit the button on this power strip and watch the energy savings go up.
The laptop, from top to bottom, is covered in wood. Then there is the semi-creepy hemp bag that is either part of the laptops wooden casing or just comes with the laptop, it would be cool either way.
