cell phone alarm.


is it true that cell phones are replacing alarm clocks? the glass amplifies the vibration and directs the sound. hmmm, i'm not sure. cell phone alarm clock by bahbak hashemi-nezhad. [via idealist.]

contemporary prefab houses.

shower belt.


shower belt by carl hagerling, claes nellestam, martin pråme. [via idealist.]

the shower belt is a great thing to have if you’re a person who find yourself being in transit a lot. the possibility to freshen up in airport restrooms or public drinking fountains leave a lot to be desired since nothing can top a full-body cleansing. the shower belt provides you with this opportunity as you will always be carrying with you a shower hose and head that fits most any faucet or fountain nozzle. it even has little soap bottles attached on the side. freshness will be achieved!

city neighborhood posters by ork posters. neighborhoods available include boston, brooklyn, chicago, manhattan, san fransisco with more to follow. personally, i'm partial to the boston poster and the allston-brighton neighborhood.
