Ping-Pong Dining Table
Ping-Pong Dining Table
Multifunctional cool stuff.
PING-PONG Dining Table designed by Hunn Wai. LINK
"PING-PONG Dining table harks back to the origins of table-tennis with its duality of both being a table fit for dining and playing on. What started off as impromptu after-dinner amusement mimicking tennis in an indoor environment for upper-class Victorians became an international phenomenon with rules and standards. This is an official-sized game table with a DuPont Corian surface CNC machine-routed with French Rococo patterns interjected with Ping-pong iconography filled with gold lacquer, supported by stately hand-lathed timber legs. In the middle, a long rectangular vase filled with dainty blossoms does double-duty as a game-net and a table floral arrangement. Reinstating grandeur and pomp with neo-classical inspired embellishments , with a twist in material by using the hi-tech marble-like Corian, the PING-PONG dining table creates a remarkable conceptual and lifestyle statement in the true heart of the home, the dining area."

Theme and Taglines
Statement
A gizmo is neither a "machine" nor a "product." It doesn't want you to accomplish any task in particular. It wants a relationship; it wants to be intimate experience, as close to you as your eyebrow. It wants you engaged, it wants you pushing those buttons, it wants you faithful to the brand name and dependent in the service.
Theme (Quote)
Gizmo as an intermediary between relationships.
Description
Gizmo builds a no boundary relationship between you and your friends.

Treatment
- Starts with a long bench and 2 people sitting separately at two ends of the bench.
- Then two people getting closer and closer , the bench became shorter at the same time.
- Two people melt into a heart shape in the end.
- The background will gain more colors while they're closing.
- The mode is mild and all made by illustration.

The Art of Red Bull Can
I think human's potential is unlimited. Maybe a can could be a cell phone in the future, who knows? The most big problem of earth is too much waste. If human start to reuse the waste and give them a second lives, the world would become the cleanest and most beautiful planet.

Interesting present !
Since camera became one part of our lives, collecting things and memories pictures we take became a way to show our personality. The video shows the relationship between life, people and camera, a devise melted into our lives naturally. This branding strategy is cool and smart.

Material innovation - RFID tags
PolyID
By Andrew H. DentWe've all heard that embarrassing beep when leaving a store because the security tag on our purchase had not been removed. This technology has been around for some time and differs in shape, size, and identification method. The smallest and now most widely used are radio frequency identification (RFID) tags, which often look like spirals of silver foil on an adhesive label.
RFID tags were originally developed using silicon, but a new generation has emerged based on polymer semiconductors. This breakthrough has allowed the technology to overcome its biggest hurdle—cost. Producing them from plastics has allowed Germany's PolyIC, an electronic chip-printing company, to print tags in a high-volume, low-cost, production method—drastically cutting costs for both raw materials and processing. These flexible, thin RFID tags consist of roll-to-roll printed transponder chips based on the polymer semiconductor polythiophene and printed on flexible polyester film. During the process, the chips are mounted on a low-cost antenna and have a maximum read range of about three feet (one meter). The first production runs for these printed RFIDs are being used on tickets for transportation within Europe, with a wider rollout in the coming year. The ultimate goal is for it to reach the widescale adoption and virtually zero cost of the ubiquitous bar code.

From BusinessWeek
Some technology is existed but not be wild used or applied, but that may make difference in our lives. This stuff is pretty practical and save money, and it's easy to produced. Imagine our future, everything could be possible for the new material invention.
