Shredding Scissors by Evan Orensten
With the rise in identity theft and the unrelenting solicitation from credit card companies it makes sense to shred all of the offers that hit your mailbox. Power shredders don't make the cut for the most attractive items in the house (there's an opportunity), take up a lot of space, and use electricity. These Japanese shredding scissors provide an inexspensive (under $20) and green solution to the problem. They are handy for light shredding needs at the office or all those times you wish you had some home made confetti.

Stanley Wristwatch Tools
Stanley has launched a line of wristwatches with built-in tools in Japan. While we think these are an interesting advancement in portable tools, it seems likely that if you have a need for any of these, you probably have a need for all of them. If so, do you buy all of them? And if you have all of them, how do you know...

The Cubes
The idea of working in a cubicle scares the pants off me. Maybe it's not as bad as it seems. It pays the bills right? Well, here are The Cubes. There are four cubical sets. Each containing its own little worker bee, three full walls, one half wall, computer, desk, (whatever else goes in one of those prisons) and even a sticker so that...

Farm
Staged in an immaculate, white gabled space in the Navigli neighborhood in Milan, Studio Job recently previewed their latest monumental work in conjunction with the Eindhoven-based designhuis. The installation, called Farm, draws inspiration from traditional farming economies of the Dutch lowlands, and is composed of twenty-four cast bronze objects and six pieces of Palissander wood furniture. Continuing the leitmotif developed in last year's Homework...

Ana Beatriz Miniatures
Contrary to what you see, the photos you're looking at aren't just shots of the inside of someone's craft or music room. It's fine, go ahead and do a double-take. They're in fact miniature recreations of the real thing by Brazil's Rita de Cássia Baduy Pires of Ana Beatriz Miniatures, set on a ratio of 1:7.8 inches. The meticulous artist with even more nimble...

Muji Chronotebook
My favorite design from last year's Muji awards is the Chronotebook, a simple but effective daily planner. Rather than the standard columns, lines or grids, each page has an analog clock graphic. With time as the central structuring element, this daily planner is more flexible and helps with accomplishing tasks in a timely manner. Beige, minimal, with rounded corners and just small enough to...
