"Design with a conscious" is one of those 21st century A&D trends that have really caught on and are no longer associated with tjhe idealists or the eco-police. Every inch of our urban existence is dependent on some form of energy so it makes sense to design products that actually track our consumption.The Belkin Conserve Insight does just that and also gives you information on the amount of CO2 emitted by your appliances, or the cost of operation. So if your refrigerator is consuming too much electricity then chuck it for the environment and even your wallet.

Cloud computing is something we hear every day now as everyone is talking about how to save or store stuff in the cloud. But what if there was a way to store some stuff on the cloud? That's right, you heard me correctly! You don't have to know the ins and outs of the Internet to store various objects on the Hylla Cumulus Cloud Shelves since they have nothing to do with the online world.

Interestingly the third in the line up, Tabard seeks inspiration from something as mundane as a seamless overcoat!

Think of yourself as Destiny's favorite child? Then test your chances with Lady Luck from the comforts of your kitchen via the Cuppa Luck Tea Set. Just like coupons, you can scratch off the coating to reveal random eye-catching patterns which pay homage to the diverse British imagery. Conceptualized by Jo Westrop, who is from the University of Brighton 3D Design course, the Cuppa Luck Tea Set may not be everyone's cup of tea (pardon the pun) but we love the designer's nonconformist design approach.
