Bendit - Plywood Sled by Roger Kellenberger

The plywood sledge design concept ‘Bendit’ is a sustainable ‘snow rider’ combining fluid forms with cutting-edge use of materials. Its main look is defined through sheets of bent plywood. 

The ergonomically shaped seating area provides optimal hold for the user, while the s-curved sections support overall balance and cushioning suspension. The rubber covered leash empowers easy pulling and enables users to maintain precise control for downhill rides of varying difficulty.

Maple Set kitchen knives by The Federal

The Maple Set by designers at The Federal is all about balance: of materials, hard and soft; of weight in your hand; of sexy and sinister.

The focus is drawn to the high polished blade, while the rest of the knife’s Maple wood body sits warmly in the hand and blends in to its surroundings. 

Wood used on these prototypes is sealed for easy cleanup and safe food prep.

The Morph Folding Wheel. This wheelchair wheel can fold away for travel and storage and is set to revolutionise the world of foldable wheelchairs. For the first time, wheelchair wheels can fit easily into an airplane overhead locker, or trunk of a small car.

Designed from Vitamins Design, Morph is the world’s first folding wheelchair wheel. When in the open position, the wheel takes up 22 liters of space. But when folded, it only occupies 12 liters of space.

GIGS.2.GO by  Kurt Rampton & BOLTroup

When you need to share files on-the-go, simply tear off a tab from the GIGS.2.GO pack. Each tab is a tiny thumb drive. Because GIGS.2.GO is inexpensive and made from renewable materials, you can feel comfortable leaving the tabs behind. And you’ve still got more tabs, ready when you need them.

The molded paper pulp enclosure is made from 100% post-consumer recycled paper. It’s renewable, biodegradable, lightweight, cheap, and durable enough to ensure that each tab should last for many uses.

Ôyer clothes dryer by Pengfei LI

In Southern Asia, the rainy season lasts about 50 days from June to July. There is no sun, and relative humidity reaches 90%. It’s very difficult to dry clothes. Today, we have the drying racks, but they are slow to dry and the machine dryer is untransportable and consumes much electricity. Why not design a product that will dry quickly and use less?

Ôyer is a clothes dryer that dries clothes faster and use less energy. We place the clothes in the bag and press the button to start Ôyer. Thanks to the humidity sensor and temperature sensor, Ôyer will stop automatically when the clothes will be dry.

Ôyer has a small dimension, which will carry it everywhere.
