First up, Sennheiser earphones. CystalRoc, a UK company, has teamed up with Sennheiser to glam up two of their headphone […]

Watch the Hours Blink: Shinshoku Watch

Simplicity will always have a place in my heart, though. But with modern gadgets rolling in, simplicity takes a whole new makeover. Simplicity now […]

The Maya Single Chair — Every Lazybones’ Dream

In the past, there have been many speculations on when robotics would achieve the seemingly believable fantasy science fiction has been portraying robots to be since […]

The Lilliputian Vacuum Cleaner

Look at the picture. Surprised? Before you start voicing your concerns or marking yourself as delirious, rest assured you didn’t bump your head and started dreaming of Gulliver’s Travels. This picture was taken in real life and no, you’re not in the fictional island of Lilliput, so don’t get too excited! This miniature, Lilliputian vacuum […]
