Some say you can tell a real designer from a noob by the amount of coffee he/she drinks. Passion for good coffee seems to go hand in hand with those of us who define ourselves as “creatives”, but we’re also the same group of people who are first to step up when there’s an environmental issue. What about all those coffee grinds? Check out this Kickstarter project called POTHRA™.
Matthew Waldman and his team at Nooka started experimenting with the copious amounts of discarded coffee grinds left by consumers and discovered when combined with resin, each kind of coffee creates a different look and color. That’s when the proverbial lightbulb went off. Sure you could do what some famous TV home mavens say and compost it or you can create a scalable model with recycled products like the POTHRA™.

Besides its stunning geometric looks, the Nooka ZIG has one of the most practical elements that this digital era requires. The concept is the perfect marriage of a digital watch with USB, redefining portability and interaction. While the designer aspires to bring back the physical human interaction that is often lost with technology, I think the watch just takes us a step closer to the surreal world.

Coup de cœur pour ce concept du designer américain Mike Lubrano qui a imaginé la transformation d’une voiture Delorean issue de la trilogie emblématique « Back to The Future » en un taxi jaune new-yorkais. Une opération pour la marque de montres Nooka, à découvrir en images dans la suite.
I wanna make you fabulous. I want you to feel good. I want you to smile and so I’m giving one of you lucky readers a chance to win a limited edition Nooka Zub Zirc 20 Clear Grey watch. The photo doesn’t do it any justice. The color is smoked out and makes this watch outstanding. For a chance to win, come up with the best meaning for the acronym N-O-O-K-A. You can be serious, clever, or funny. “No One Owns Koalas Anymore”. Leave it in comments. I’ll pick a winner this Friday. Open to all. Good luck!

Our boy Matt Waldman is doing big thangs y’all. Like for serious. His latest project is a collab with Fila on a capsule footwear collection sure to please all futurists. With an eye always towards the future, Matt figures there no better physical metaphor than our feet. They literally propel us physically into the future one step at a time – that is unless you find a wormhole because then you kinda just fall in and end up god knows where. Love this collection. Let me say that again, LOVE IT. As of now looks like it’s only available in Asia.
