This amazing floor lamp uses strands of brilliant electroluminescent tubes to form into an nearly infinite number of flowing organic shapes.
Designed by Jesus Felipe and Silvia Grimaldi of UK-based Nimble Critters, the ETree lamp is more of an interactive sculpture than simply a lamp…

The slick black case and bright, easy-to-read displays on these Slan LED watches really caught my eye.
There’s just something so refreshing about a digital watch that’s just clean and simple, unencumbered by extraneous information or newfangled display paradigms…

In the beginning, there were speakers that looked like dogs, then along came some cats, so I guess it was only a matter of time before the rodentia would feel left out of the audio food chain.
Like their mammalian inspiration, these Forus Mouse Speakers feature a long snout and rounded ears. And just like real mice, their skulls pop open to reveal tiny speakers inside their bulbous heads…

The numbers on this unique wall clock from Hong Kong’s ChilliChilly may look confusing when the hands aren’t over them, but as each hand reaches a number, colored discs reveal the proper time.
The appropriately named Seeing Double clock uses Red and a green colored filters at the end of the hour and minute hands reveal the true time…

I’ve written about so many modern digital watches that sacrifice ease of use for cool design (I’m talking to you, TokyoFlash). So it’s a breath of fresh air to see a modern digital that manages to balance looks with ease-of-use.
The Fusion DT1 is actually pretty easy to figure out after a quick read of the instruction sheet…

I really dig the clean modern styling of this bedside alarm clock from DesignEon. The cool thing about it is that there’s a built-in light that casts a dramatic glow from beneath the clock.
The clock comes in two styles, one with green LEDs and a green acrylic case, and the other one comes with orange LEDs and a clear acrylic case…

Fresh off the shelves from Hong Kong’s Brando come these new multimedia speakers with a strange name.
They may be calling these “Angel Speakers,” but I actually think they look more like twirling ballerinas (or Whirling Dervishes for that matter.) Regardless, they’re pretty cool looking, and make add a dramatic splash of color to any desktop…
