08.31.2005Alessi Mr. Suicide Bathtub Plug
Mr. Suicide is yet another awesome little gadget by the famous Italian design firm Alessi. I have always been a fan of Cico the egg cup, which still remains one of my favorite items of any Alessi collection. I love Cico because it isn’t just cute and funny, but also extremely functional, holding the spoon in its hand and using its cap as a salt castor. Mr. Suicide, designed by Massimo Giacon, is probably not as functional as the egg holder, but a brilliant product nonetheless. Available for £ 18.00 on the Alessi online store. And while you are surfing on the Alessi site, make sure to check the Tea & Coffee Towers collection (link to flash page from the homepage). Below a picture of the Kung-Fu Tea Set designed by Gary Chang with the help of his grandfather, “my definite consultant on this Tea & Coffee Towers project”. The design of the set has also been influenced by another day-to-day phenomenon of Chang’s life: “having lunch at the local Chinese Restaurant that does Dim Sum food”.
“The collage of the dim-sum basket is literally transformed to become the Kung-Fu Tea Set, created out of an ensemble of sterling silver in Italy and Chinese Red Clay from Yixing; with different elements for various functions that can pile up according to different scenarios”. The production of the Kung-Fu Tea Set is limited to 99 copies and I wasn’t able to find out a price for it on the Alessi site, though I am dying to put my hands on one of these. Posted by Camilla

If I had a nice garden I would probably want one of these. I am not sure how successful I would be in growing this grass chair, since gardening is definitely not one of my talents. You can get the Terra Grass Chair from Lazybone for £59.99 (or € 89.98 / $ 107.98) and it will be delivered worldwide. Posted by Camilla

08.29.2005HydraBrush cleans both sides of the tooth at the same time
Yes, both sides at the same time! The HydraBrush Ultra, dubbed the automatic car-wash for your teeth, promises to eliminate human error (I beg your pardon?) and to offer proper oral care every time you put it in your mouth. There's also a HydraBrush Express version that cleans all surfaces of the teeth automatically in 40 seconds or less. In my humble opinion, you really have to be lazy or unconscious about your oral health to trust that double turbo. Check the animation of how it works on the website. From gizmag. Posted by regine
