Bench/Picnic Table

I saw this on youtube and thought that it was very interesting, multi use furniture is a great idea and very useful nowadays as people have less space.

biOrb Life Aquarium

Loads of people have keep fish and for some a generic "glass box" isn't enough, present the new biOrb life aquarium, I think that it frames the tank with its bent plastic surround, it is quite a small fish tank which sells a lot better. It also has an inbuilt filter and it is available in a number of different colours. I think biOrb are onto another winner here.

Folding Electric Scooter

This design concept just won the Buckminster Fuller Challenge with a top prize of $100,000! Designed by a team of MIT researchers and students led by professor William J. Mitchell, with their Sustainable Personal Mobility and Mobility-on-Demand Systems.

"Mobility-on-Demand systems utilize fleets of shared-use lightweight electric vehicles placed at automatic charging racks throughout a city. The CityCar and RoboScooter, both folding vehicles, along with the Green-Wheel Bicycle, minimize parking space and can be picked-up and dropped-off at any rack. Mobility-on-Demand systems maximize mobility and dramatically reduce congestion and pollution through energy and land-use efficiency.

Flymo

I really like flymo's products, I think that they are very innovative and designed very well with the user in mind. I think I might try to come up with a new design/product for flymo's range and try to incorporate their style into my design.

Volkswagen Concept S


Designed by Mark Kruse This is the Concept S its green because it is powered by four electric motors which are in each wheel hub. It’s also painted with water-based paints, which are less harmful to the environment. Despite looking small, the Concept S has maximum storage space for a compact car, so it is ideal for people who want more space, without the car taking up the whole of your driveway.

The car can be converted into either a hatchback, a pickup or an open-air storage vehicle, depending on which is most useful to you.

Lupo 3L

From the name you may think that this car has a 3litre engine, infact it is called the Lupo 3L because it only consumes 3 litres of fuel for 100km. It does around 90mpg, to me this shows that you don't need fancy hybrid cars to achieve good mpg. You can't buy these in the UK for some reason but a few people import them from germany because of how good they are.
