Not Your Conventional Hairdryer!

boltup_hair_dryer_layout_01

Sometimes we come across designs that we certainly didn’t expect to ever see, and this unique design falls into this category. The Clankin is the result of combining the functionality and use of a hairdryer, with the aesthetics and design style of a firearm… that’s not something that you hear every day! But it unarguably creates a really interesting device that is sure to add a bit of interest into the hair drying process.

The conventional, and somewhat mundane, temperature switch has been replaced by a bolt action lever that will make adjusting the temperature feel slightly more badass! Clankin’s organically shaped design has been finished in a combination of matte and glossy black plastic… there’s even a scope decal present!

This is undeniably a unique design that you probably didn’t expect to ever come across, but if it’s going to add interest into the extremely boring task of drying hair, then it’s a worthwhile product to me!

The Over and Under Speaker

aloft_speaker_01

Whoever said wireless audio had to “sit” hasn’t seen the Aloft speaker by designer Hyeonil Jeong. The alternative design explores an entirely new way to save valuable counter or desk space.

It’s A-shaped form and easy-to-install, built-in hanging bracket makes it possible to tuck it under a shelf or ledge. Being wedged underneath one of these items also helps the sound to be reflected and channeled in whichever direction you orient the device. Of course, if you opt for leaving it on your desk or other flat surfaces, it’ll be right at home there too!
