The most energy efficient light bulb ever

Wednesday, May 26th, 2010

Well, I may be stretching that a bit given that it’s actually a candle but this Light Bulb Candle designed by Helbert FerreiraRemi Melander of System Design STUDIO is a sweet piece of work.  It screws into a standard socket and looks like a real bulb.  Probably wouldn’t work in a ceiling fixture.  Well I guess it would, you’ll probably just burn your house down.

A lamp made from wax. Impossible!

Monday, March 8th, 2010

Actually not… The Impossible Lamp by Jeeves Basu has been designed so that it initially melts to create the shade but after the shade has formed it doesn’t melt anymore.  Crazy, I know!

Switch on a lamp made of wax and it should melt and disintegrate in seconds. But due to the unique way it has been designed, the Impossible Lamp does not. It is a lamp made of wax that works without melting.

Check out a video of this thing in action after the break. Read More

Mandle – Man candle in a recycled beer bottle

Sunday, February 28th, 2010

These have possibly the greatest candles ever!  I know that sounds a little gay but hold on…  In the words of Koi Kouture (the artist behind this creation) these are Mandles($28).  What the hell is a mandle you ask?  Well let let me explain.  A mandle is a 220z Rogue beer bottle turned into a candle holder.  Pretty kick ass right?  Well the mandle magic doesn’t stop there.  Mandles are candles that smell like manly things because vanilla scented candles in teacups are for chicks!  You pick the scent and the bottle

Here are the scents you can choose from:

HOOTERS WAITRESS SCENTED: Suntan Oil with the faint smell of old deep fryer oil. 
HUNGRY MAN TV DINNER SCENTED: Roast Beef with Creamed Corn (real enough to make you throw up in your mouth a little)
STRIPPER BREATH SCENTED: Watermelon Jolly Rancher with a little stale smoke
HAM & CHEESE SANDWICH ON RYE SCENTED: Ham and cheese on rye…with a tiny bit of mustard. This scent is awesome! 
MUNCHIES SCENTED: Fritos with an underlying layer of dried pot and a tiny bit of smoke. 
CARNY: Cotton Candy and Corn Dogs…with a little motor oil.
TRAILER PARK: Motor Oil, Fresh Dirt and despair (not really)
CAMPING: Roasted Marshmallow and campfire
OH NO, IT’S THE COPS!: Coffee and Donuts
ROAD TRIP: Beef Jerky
OLD SPICE (Because the new commercials are amazing!)
PINK STARBURST: Just like the pink starburst! 
SPRING BREAK: Suntan oil
CRAZY OLD FISHERMAN: Fishing Boat and Old Spice
AXE BODY SPRAY: Just like the one your little brother in college wears.
FRESH CUT GRASS: Men love nothing more than mowing the lawn and drinking a beer. 
LEATHER: Just like the leather couch in a bachelor pad
