Have you ever thought that your cell phone was just too small? Well here’s the accessory for you. It’s the Hulger P*Phone. It’s a full size retro phone handle complete with curly phone cord that attaches to your cell phone. The P*Phone is available in 5 fashionable colors, and comes with adapters to fit most cell phones. It sells for £40.00 (€60.00 $70.00)-approx.

Nicolas le Moigne won this years MACEF Design Award Competition entitled RE-think + RE-cycle with this extremely cool Watering Can.

I was blown away when I saw this. To me, it represents a pinnacle in good design. It’s so simple, yet so elegant. Nicholas saw an existing situation of excess disposable water bottles, and turned it around to fill a need. I’m so impressed!

This reminds me of a quote I once saw..

“A designer knows that he has achieved perfection not when there is nothing left to add, but when there is nothing left to take away.”

For a long time now I have been thinking about leaving graphic design and getting more in to industrial design. Seeing something like this only serves to inspire me. Well Done Nicholas!
