EcoForms by Ami Kealoha
Though East Coasters are currently experiencing a strangely warm winter, we're already fantasizing about spring planting. For an eco-friendly alternative to plastic with a no-frills look, EcoForms are made from compressed grain husks with natural, water-soluble binding agents. No pollutants are used in the manufacturing process, all byproducts are recycled and at the end of their five-year lifespan, EcoForms will biodegrade completely. Made to withstand freezing and thawing, the pots provide root insulation for better growing and have efficient drainage systems. Available in six neutral colors, EcoForms come in dimensions ranging from 3"-12" diameters and custom orders are possible by contacting sales [at] ecoforms [dot] com.

Pineapple Paper Furniture
Establishment (an interior design outpost in Manhattan) recently tipped us to Pineapple Paper Furniture, a new line of benches and chairs made from compressed pineapple fibers. We like the Doonya Chair (pictured above right, $1,900) as well as the Nut Bench (pictured after the jump, $2,900). They hadn't been added to the website last time we checked, but you can email Establishment directly: info...

Wingrider Bicycle Clip
To add a little Greek god/comic book style to your daily bike commute, these winged straps will do the trick. They'll also do double duty by protecting your pant cuffs from rips and grease stains caused by the chain. Designed by Droog co-founder Gijs Bakker (who got his start designing jewelry), they're made with a reflective PVC for night safety that's also weatherproof. The...

Dopie Sandals
Here's something to brighten up your feet as you move towards summer. This strange-looking colorful footwear looks like the born-again sole of a Nike Air Rift sneaker. In fact, the Dopie sandal is a collaboration between industrial designer Matthew Harrison and the eco-friendly shoe company Terra Plana. Developed over two years, the Dopie is the result of the search for a "sandal in a...

Suck UK Sun Jar
I'll admit that Suck UK can be a little bit hit and miss with its creations, but I think the Sun Jar is spot on. Using a solar cell, battery and LEDs, it effectively collects sunlight during the day so you can use it at night. Simple and effective, with the bonus of being eco-friendly, the Sun Jar costs around £20....

Jill Bliss: Native Flowers Journal
Jill Bliss, founder of blissen, has created the Native Flowers Journal. It's a small blank journal with mostly gridded pages. As you flip through it, drawings of the local flora of the San Francisco Bay Area border the edges of the page spreads. Occasionally the neurotic grid work will disappear leaving only the flowers and the date to define the space....
