Have a Nice Day! is a cute set of stainless steel coffee sticks by Italian design studio Playdesign. Each stick represents a day of a week from yawning Monday to a smiling Saturday.

Monday is struggling to wake up
Tuesday is hoping for a good beginning
Wednesday cracks a smile
Thursday … gnocchi (dumplings)!
Friday smiles at the weekend
Saturday is happy as a child

The Hälssen & Lyon tea calendar features calendar days made from tea leaves.

I would not mind giving this a try.

Tears formed in my eyes just thinking about this.

This is neat!

Origami Tea Bag by Natalia Ponomareva

Russian designer Ponomareva created this small origami to drown in her tea. What did paper birds ever do to her? What a way to go, though.

Hydrofloors are only like the coolest thing ever invented. They are specially designed pools with movable floors. When you’re using your pool it’s just like a normal pool. But when you are done swimming or aquacising, you press a button and the pool’s floor slowly raises up while the water slips underneath the floor. Pimpin! Eventually the pool’s floor reaches the top and you are left with a large flat area you can use for recreation, dining, parties or any other dry land event you want.

Another press of the button and the floor sinks back down slowly to reveal your already water-filled pool. You can also stop the floor at any point which means you can make the pool as shallow or deep as you want. Having a kid’s party? Just set it for shallow kiddie pool depth. Be sure to throw a few extra chlorine tablets in the pool cleaning mechanism though, you know how kids are.

I could potentially drown my enemies at a sleep over…

Wave Table 02 (2010-2012) by Frederik Skåtar

The table is a part of the project “From animation to sculpture” which was funded by the Swedish Arts Grants Committee (Konstnärsnämnden) in 2010.

Materials: acrylic glass and aluminium
Dimensions: 1000X1000X500 mm
Amplitude: max 3mm

Wave Table 02 is made of acrylic glass through which objects visually seem to be under water. The aim with this project is to “hide a sculpture” in a common object, in this case a table. 
The sculpture materializes a shape that constantly occurs in nature, however we cannot see it because of our perception of time and movement. Here, the movement of water has been frozen and carved out as a sculpture.
