Luna Time

Posted in: Accessories & Fashion, ilmo Ahn, Luna

The Luna Watch is a clever design that represents the process of waxing and waning of the real moon as a way of communicating the time. What this means is that Waning to the right indicates ‘AM’ and waning to the left means ‘PM’. You can recharge the watch via USB and access the functions menu by adjusting the crown. In all, designer ilmo Ahn wants you to own your moon.

Return of the Bifold

Posted in: Accessories & Fashion

Small, minimal wallets are all the rave, but it’s understandable that some guys just need more room in their wallet! For them, there’s the TwinFold. It’s a classic bifold design but slimmer and lighter so it won’t make a huge impact on your back pocket. Interestingly, every wallet is made from Lamborghini seat material, so you know it’s top quality.

A Void in Time

Posted in: Accessories & Fashion, timepiece

Designed for the Fossil brand, the O Ring watch is a metaphorical symbol of the consistency of time which has no lapse. The open center piques the viewers interest when it becomes clear that the mechanical functionality doesn’t emanate from the center as we’re familiar with. On a side note, I’m suddenly craving a doughnut.

Analog for Dummies

Posted in: Accessories & Fashion, timepiece

If you’re like me, you probably wear a watch out of habit and less for actually telling the time. After all, it’s just easier to look at your phone! Finally! A watch is for us lazy folk! The Mask watch’s two rotary layers display only the numbers you’re really looking for, making it fast and easy to check the time. In pure white or black, its subtle minimalist style looks great too.

The Transforma t-shirt package will be adored by retailers and fashionistas alike! The clever design has a window that allows customers to both see the color of the t-shirt and feel the texture of the material. Once the user brings the package home, it can be recombined to double as a hanger! Composed of moulded paper pulp, it’s both recyclable and affordable. Watch the transformation —>

A Little Better Umbrella

Posted in: Accessories & Fashion

However necessary, the nature of an umbrella’s design, no matter how compact or easy to use, makes it somewhat cumbersome. If you’ve tried carrying anything in the rain then you know that feel! The Rotation Handle Umbrella is an easy fix that makes things just a little easier. The hooked handle rotates at the base, making it easy to throw a purse, sack, or grocery bag on so you and your goodies stay dry! Genius!

A New Design Notion

Posted in: Accessories & Fashion, watch timepiece

NTN’s premier product launch, called Collection 01, focuses on material likeness and a similar construction process to tie these otherwise unrelated objects together as a series. A thoughtful balance of aluminum, fabric and natural wood define each as a singular product, but a shared design language makes them shine as a group.

Hammock Table
The Hammock Table is a low coffee table defined by a suspended fabric shelf. The shelf is kept in tension by rope connecting to aluminum leg mounts. The solid table top is of bleached Irish sycamore which is blended into the round legs.

W1 Watch
The front and back body parts of the W1 watch are CNC machined from solid aluminum. The integrated aluminum dial is created in the same process. The floating increments are etched directly onto the crystal. The watch is finished with a vegetable tanned leather strap. Available in both natural and black anodized aluminum.

Dowel Chair
The Dowel Chair is a modern take on the classic windsor chair. Constructed from solid bleached irish sycamore the seat back consists of sixteen spindles with a removable fabric cover. On the underside the legs are blended into the seat.

G1 Glasses
The character of the G1 Glasses comes as much from the materials as the shape. Formed plywood frames and temples are connected by a CNC machined aluminum armature. This armature also incorporates the custom brass hinge. Available in teak and natural aluminum with brown lens or black stained ash and black anodized aluminum with black lens.

Waterford Lamp
This pendant lamp consists of a thick, clear glass shade hand blown in Waterford, Ireland. A machined aluminum hanger suspends the shade from the grey braided cable. The lamp is finished with a hand stitched filament bulb.
