Omocha Clock by Johan Lindstén

What a clever idea, I have so many stuffed animals in my house that my daughter don’t even look at them and I never thought to use them as a piece of design. This clock designed by Swedish designer Johan Lindstén. “This clock is the result of all these stuffed animals that I encountered everywhere, in the claw machines, on bags, jackets and cell phones. How many animals can collect over a lifetime?”

Cubby Coat Hook By Materious

What a great idea Cubby coat hook by materious, instead of throwing away your keys and sunglasses in a drawer or a bowl these hooks will give you the option to  hang coats and keep items in the same place.(via)

Via the designers: “The Cubby coat hook challenges traditional form–rather than a coat hook being a fairly linear element (like a nail), Cubby is a volume. The center space offers storage for keys, wallets, gloves, sunglasses, or other small items. The outer surface allows purses and scarves to be hung and offers a wider, more collar-friendly support for coats. Many Cubbyies can be attached to the wall linearlly or randomly, in different colors, and each family member can have their own coat “space.”

Para Clocks by LeeLABS

Just saw on Contemporist a fun  and creative clocks. LeeLABS has recently completed Para Clocks, a project that not only seeks to crowd source investment and interest, but aims to crowd source design power as well. Para-Clocks is about combining digital design methods with traditional craft using concrete; and most importantly, involving YOU in the design process. We were first inspired by radial geometry and symmetry found in architecture and textiles from around the world. Certain patterns from these cultures can be boiled down to a simple set of steps and rules for making them. Designing using parametric software allows us to create many variations of radial patterns based off of similar sets of rules; but these are then played with and manipulated, allowing each pattern to be expressive in surprising ways. We hope to see the Para Clocks Design App inspire the creativity of our customers and initiate the next big part of the Para Clocks project: Making clocks the way that YOU imagine.

Check there video.
