Four Fifths Design

Designer: Sara Forsmark
This portable device lets the wearer express emotions with colors by correlating them with biometric data. The idea is to create another way to externalize how we feel in a language anyone can understand. Someone walking down the street with flash red might be upset, in a hurry, or angry. A computer keeps track of your colors, sort of a diary of emotions that can be turned into choreographed motion graphic pieces.

Designer: Luca Nichetto
These polypropylene leaves, dubbed Maria by the designer Luca Nichetto, just look plain fun to play with. Secured together by small pins through the leaves’ joint holes, users can build and create their own unique room partitions, window shades, or whatever you can think of. The distributor, Casamania, also offers an “additivated” version which changes color depending on temperature, so stick ‘em outside and watch the seasons change.

Designer: Ricardo Garza Marcos
Perfect for cocktail party atmosphere or your late-night horror-movie versions of Mario cosplay, the possibilities are endless for Cube Lamp, aka Lámpara Cubo. The designer of this box of wonders is Ricardo Garza Marcos, a man of good taste and real minimalistic design sense.

Designer: David Fuhrer
Interactive Designer, David Fuhrer, is a Switz based designer involved in illustration, interactive design and CGI among other areas. His portfolio is a former FWA winner and he is currently still blowing minds with his digital art. I love this work.

Designer: MAKI Studio
MAKI is a design and illustration studio based in Groningen, Netherlands. Their work can be described as wacky, humorous, urban and intelligent. They are also a lemur, famous for communication, worldwide. I ran across them via apparel. I found a graphic on a shirt that I found intriguing, looked up who the artist was, and I found these guys.
