In Design.
Upon graduation, I’ve found myself with a bit more extra time on my hands and have turned a few free hours towards industrial design (ID). My current project involves two different mediums and a bit of science. (I’ll post some pictures when it’s done).

There is a lot of stuff out there when it comes to design – some cool, some not – and lucky for you, I’ve taken the time to figure out what’s cool to save you the trouble of having to figure it all out yourself. ;) [Should you agree or disagree, your comments are always encouraged]

Cool:
"B of the Bang" is a huge spiky landmark that is over 60 feet tall (as high as the Leaning Tower of Pisa, but with 10 times the lean) in Manchester, England. [more pics]

Ears have a lot of different ways to get sound into them these days, and the Mica player is a rather stylish alternative. Since its soul purpose is music, I find it interesting how it simply 'becomes' the two earphones.

My sewing machine is cooler than your laptop.

Asparagus is cool. Has nothing to do with this current subject, but I've used it to 'design' some pretty cool dishes in the past and there are just so many tasty things it can make. This Asparagus Cannelloni looks SO good. In fact, I can not believe all the different asparagus recipes out there... ...even stuff that must have been created by Homer Simpson: asparagus wrapped in ham.

There are many unique building projects that are currently on the go that are quite interesting:The Tower of Dubai, The Turning Tower in Sweden. Of course you don't want to be cooped up in a condo all week, so why not rent the man-made island of Canada for a week-end?
