Raise Me Up is an electric powerstrip designed to make it easy for one handed operation. Normally you would have to brace a powerstrip with one hand while pull the plug with the other. Raise Me Up uses a simple lever switch to connect and disconnect plugs.
I never knew this was a problem but I guess anything that leaves one hand free for other activities is as Martha would say, “a good thing”.
Table
A patinated bronze “factory”, whose architecture is derived from interpretations of various early 20th century works, including the AEG factory of Peter Behrens and the Battersea Power Station in London. The four chimneys produce a “polluted cloud” of polished bronze, which becomes the open-work tabletop.
A visually lightweight and pleasingly proportioned piece, Mollis is a low-slung easy chair that revels in simplicity of form. The slender wooden seat is made from moulded veneer that curves around the body and is available with a stained or transparent lacquer finish. The seat pad is made from foam and can be upholstered in fabric or leather. The chair sits upon a double cross stainless steel leg frame, available in either powder coated or brushed finish. The Mollis is an easy chair that delivers comfort and elegance in equal measure, suitably resolved to sit well at home or in contract environments.

These Bogner Solar-Powered Light Ski suits, the newest space-like release from designer Willy Bogner, were presented earlier this month in Munich, Germany, along with the city’s bid to host the 2018 Winter Olympics. These solar-powered lights ski suits feature thin film technology developed by OSRAM. The Golden Dragon LEDs have an optical output ratio of 55 Lumen/Watt, and require little space given their small size. We like these stylish Ski suits because the not only because of their Bogner state-of-the-art lighting technology, but also because they will help to prevent unnecessary collisions on the slopes. Definitely winter sports outfits of tomorrow.
