Growing Jewelry

Posted by Queuebot in Fashion on January 26, 2009 at 8:22 pm

Last I checked basic jewelry offers a vast multitude of stylish, and
some not-so-stylish, rings for consumers to choose from. We have
promise rings, mood rings, earrings, engagement rings, wedding rings,
class rings, Lord of the Rings (yes, Gollum’s “precious” is
available to purchase). But now, thanks to Icelandic designer Hafsteinn
Juliusson (try to say that five times fast), we now have … moss rings.

“Growing Jewelry is a redefinition of modern values. It is a clash of jewelry and gardening; couture and organism. The collection of this hand jewelry is designed for people in metropolitan cities and is an experiment in drawing nature toward man, as nature being the presupposition of life.”

Napping on Your Laptop

Posted by Queuebot in Science & Tech on January 11, 2009 at 11:53 pm

How often in class or in a boring meeting or on the bus or waiting for a flight have you wanted to lay your head down for a few minutes, but all you have to cushion your skull is a hard-edged laptop? Designer Hafsteinn Juliusson of Reykjavik came up with the napBook to solve this problem in a comfortable and colorful way with a laptop cover that doubles as a cushion, and it comes with its own shoulder strap for nappers on the go.
