A Newspaper For The Twitter Age
BERG is betting on it. When Webb gave Co.Design an exclusive preview of Little Printer last week ("You're, like, the thirteenth person on earth to see this," he said in Skype conversation from London), he was visibly giddy. "We're sick of not telling everyone about this, so we've just decided to tell everyone," he explained, grinning. Little Printer is exactly that: a palm-sized, cube-shaped, cloud-powered thermal printer with an adorable pair of feet and a cute face. And what does it print? A personalized mini-newspaper--with content curated from partners like The Guardian, social media like Foursquare and Facebook, as well as stuff created by BERG itself--and output on a receipt-like paper strip no longer than 10 inches. "Each information source we think of as a personalised 'publication' that you subscribe to from a kind of 'app store for paper,' collated into a delivery that arrives at a chosen time," Webb tells Co.Design. You "feed" Little Printer by selecting content via a remote-control-esque smartphone app, and then get your mini-newspaper delivered "once or twice a day." Think of it like Flipboard, but without the screen.

The 90° degree vase by Cuatro Cuatros
The 90° vase by Cuatro Cuatros (Four Fours) is based on an illustration of an optical illusion called the 'Penrose Triangle' where three lengths of square cross section are joined to form a triangle. The illusion of continuity is accomplished by 'false perspective' where the image displays ambiguous depth. An opening on the top of the vase accepts stalks of flowers which are are fed with water stored inside the tubular construction of the vessel. Cuatro Cuatros describes the 90° vase thusly: Is this an impossible triangle?
The interposition, orientation and perspective create a contradiction of the space that makes us perceive something that is not. It comes from the Penrose experience. 90 ° is a vase that, based on a drawing, has been converted to a geometrical shape with volume. Depending on the point of view, both ends coincide and make it look like a closed figure.

The Candy Cane
The 'Labbit' by Frank Kozik is sort of like a rabbit but its name originated as follows, according to Kozik: "About 10 years ago I did version of the Rabbit with a company in Japan. It was supposed to be 'Smokin' Rabbit, but they printed it 'Smorkin Labbit which sounds about 1 billion times cooler so thus it became REAL." The Candy Cane Labbit from Kidrobot sucks on a candy cane from the bottom up and appears to be happy just to be somewhere.
