The notion of dumping laundry in a basket and then taking it out on laundry-day will probably be redundant in the future. All you will need to do is hang your clothes in a specialized closet and await molecular technology to do its thing. The Clean Closet is your laundry basket, washing machine and drying cabinet – all rolled into one. Using its tech, it scans clothes for stains etc and removes it, freshens it (de-odorizes), and that too without using water.
Going by the multiple solutions perceived by designers for doing laundry, its either a detachable drum or cleaning clothes without water that seems to be the fixation. What do you think?

What better place than Milan to showcase your tribute to traditional Italian craftsmanship?Product designer and architect Stefano Giovanno does just this by unveiling his new collection for Magis. The Murano Vanity Chair and Table add a contemporary rhythm to the ancient art of glassmaking whose roots can be traced back to the Venetian Island of Murano. The collection has been manufactured from venetian glass and aluminum keeping in mind modern aesthetics. What we personally love about the collection is its unique mix of function, flamboyance and fun and the energy thats ricochets from it.

iSi presents flexible silicone mixing bowls and measuring cups! They have undulating rims that allow a pouring spout to be made when you need to pour liquids with precision, which eliminates the need for a funnel. In addition, they’re unbreakable, oven-proof, freezer-proof, food safe, and child friendly. If you like them, you can get them at Amazon.

Giving Shape has this unique and fun coatrack that will make you want to hang your coat!

From the designers:

MagicBeans is a funny and ironic coat hanger suitable for any room in the house. It takes inspiration from a tale: Jack and the magic beans. Jack is the white puppet and the bean plant is the green rope.

The height of the hanging point can be easily changed if the user gently slides the puppet on the rope.

SOLIS is an innovative, simple and elegant suspension lamp that can be mounted on a wall or hung from the ceiling to create a distinctive ambiance. An engaging blend of light and shadow are filtered through its laser-cut streams creating a radiating pattern that resembles the sun’s rays. Thereby making the shadow play as much a part of the fixture as the structure itself.

Polyester fabric is held in tension between two polished stainless steel rings providing both direct and diffused light to enhance any environment.

Features:

• Available in three lengths and 3 colors.
• Solis ships with an innovative mounting system that can be converted from wall mount plug-in to hardwired pendant.
• Includes 16 foot white cord with clear full range dimmer.
• When wall mounted the cord can be fed back through to the floor and be used like a floor standing lamp.
• To use as a ceiling model – the dimmer can be removed and the cord can be shortened.

Notes: Ships flat-packed.

Material(s): Fire retardant polyester, stainless steel
