Beautiful Paper Sculptures by Jeff Nishinaka

The stunning elegance of Jeff Nishinaka’s paper art calls for a new definition of paper. His meticulous sculptural 3D work appears to have been created from marble or extremely fine sand or vanilla ice cream or thick foam — definitely of something other than “just” paper. The Los Angeles-born artist works mainly with white, which makes the exquisite play of light and shadow a large part of the appeal of his work.

One might assume that there is very little demand for work that uses one medium and one color. Not so. Nishinaka’s work pops up everywhere in the most unexpected places, from medical illustrations of the structure of the eye, to private portrait commissions, to a life-size garden for a hotel.

funny thumb drives


USB memory sticks are always nice to have around when transferring files from computer to computer. These sticks from OOOMS are made to stand out from their natural environment of computers and offices. The sticks are picked from the woods and are individually selected for their natural beauty, and then professionally handmade into unique and personal USB memory sticks.


each finger is freshly cut and removed from the local morgue (no, not really....well.....maybe) and equipped with 1gig of memory. These things are very realistic in appearance and feel.but for me totally weird.


sushi anyone?


The USB pendrive memory in the form of typical wooden clamp. It can be easily fastened to clothes, thus forming an amusing decoration both for women and men. This item combines both tradition and modernity and such combination was an important consideration during design phase.


Whilst the amount of beer inside this Budweiser USB flash drive won’t exactly get your merry, it is a novel idea.
Now if they had filled it with whisky or some other more potent alcohol it might we worth getting, but as it stands it’s just another fun USB flash drive.


anyone wants to pretend to be a kid?


This lipstick-shaped flash drive features the plug-and-play capability. It requires no driver. Besides the eye-catching look, there is a lot to like about this thumbdrive, including the portability, high-speed data transmission, the support for encryption. In addition, the unit is antimagnetic, shockproof, dampproof, heat and cold resistant in light of the ABS exterior.


cute and funny


That annoying guy three cubes down want the same files you’ve already emailed him 30 times? Pull the plug on your grenade and fling it into his cube. It won’t blow up, but at least a grenade to the head might make him reconsider the next time he wants to bug you about something…


not so yummy donut...

Scrap Metal Transformers Sculpture Is Uber Cool






Made by the guys at RoboSteel, an Irish company specialized in creating artistic sculptures out of scrap metal, this Optimus Prime replica is the best ever.

Characterized as “the most amazing steel sculpture ever created by RoboSteel” this Optimus Prime sculpture is made of over 5,000 recycled steel parts, collected from a car, a boat, a motorbike, a dishwasher, a television and others. It’s 2.5 meters tall and weighs an impressive 550 kilograms.

Recycled Optimus Prime has been coated with several layers of strong, protective lacquer, and all the sharp edges were removed. Now it’s ready to guard your home against Decepticons, provided you’re willing to fork out 5,500 euro for it. It may not be as big as the Transformer drying laundry in Taiwan, but it definitely looks better.
