A Digital Hourglass

If you’re like me and tend to bite off more than you can chew, mere calendar alerts just won’t do. You need an additional way to remind yourself of important dates and significant items on your schedule. Piece of Time is a timepiece concept that aims to do just that!

The wearable device, which can be worn as a pendant necklace, bracelet, or basic clip, will sync with your calendar wirelessly. Its discrete lights give you a visual countdown to the next important event. A simple glance down or look in the mirror will remind you and help you stay aware of upcoming tasks and other occasions.

Poo Disposal Through a Curve

When the local government of Hungary was looking for a motivational campaign to get dog owners to dispose off the dog poo from the streets, little did they know that the prize-winning entry Curve would garner so much support and enthusiasm. The trashcan designed by Kőrös Benedek – Ben Koros has a fun and intriguing way of dumping the waste. Read on to know more.

Ben explains, “The biggest problem with dog waste disposal cans is, that they fill up on domestic rubbish way before time – thus even responsible dog owners can’t dispose their pet’s waste. I’ve tried to design a can, which doesn’t allow bottles, bags full of trash, empty boxes etc. to be dropped inside. The user must pick up the poo, place it in a plastic bag (biologically degradable plastic bags included on the Curve), and lead it through a curvy gap on the top, to be able to dump it.”

Absolutely brilliant!
