Editorial — Fri, 12 Mar 2010 12:08:23 +0000

Eco printer concept

Editorial — Wed, 03 Mar 2010 06:20:24 +0000

If you have scraps of pencils and eraser and a great desire to save paper and thus save the forest, then this concept is for you. Pencil Printer created by designer Hoyoung Lee is not only for printing text, but also for its erasure. The trick in this concept is to use graphite extracted from scraps of ordinary pencils instead of toner. The printer has two “exits”. First one is for printed pages, the other one theoretically is for blank pages. Quite unusual eco concept. [link]

Mmm-mmm!

Finally the no-guilt, non-addictive cigarette! It looks amazingly like the real thing, and actually has a non-smoking purpose. Remove the “tip of ash” and it turns into a pen — ready to jot down your shopping list or a reminder to attend the next Smokers Anonymous meeting. [link]
