Andrea Manzati is the creator of the space travel series that was created for Fast Company magazine and was displayed as a full page illustration. I can see why it got a full page just look at the detail and concept of future ideas of spaceships. I'm digging the series also due to the color palette choice and also cause it has to do with space.  Who doesn't like space?  Check out more of Andrea work on Behance

Their is something to be said about fashion and technology that works and provides style at the same time. The folks at Art Lebedev are people who care and they come up with the craziest and best ideas, the Bulavkus USB flash drive. An interesting mix between design, tech and fashion, the Bulavkus is a simple safety pin with a flash drive on it.  It spares you from digging through your pockets but it looks like something that can get lost very easily, but I still want one. It's such a simply design it's almost stupid.  Check out more ideas from Art Lebedev here.

Boxetti is a concealed, fold-down wall bed concept. Here is what the website had to say:

"Boxetti Private contains the set of basic bedroom functions –a double bed, night stand and a wardrobe. The foldaway bed platform is automatically lifted by a remote control, together with a built-in night stand. The unit is equipped with a spotlight and an ambience lighting fixture above the headboard. The integrated wardrobe consists of six sections including shelves, drawers and a clothes rail. " 

If you get a chance check out the website and see some other concept folding designs. Their collection is driven by three basic design principles - functionality, advance technologies and contemporary aesthetics of minimalism.

Emilie Griottes has created these very interesting Pantone Swatch Tarts. In this series the colors are so vibrant and perfectly handmade that you would have thought Pantone put out a new advertisement, but nope just her awesome idea.  I think if I could eat one for real I would go for the Pantone 7492 C which looks like cucumbers on a tart.

What can I say other than Tanlines new debut album Mixed Emotions arrived just in time for Spring/Summer. This album is an instant day brightener with it's nostalgic 80's synth-spiration and dance feel grooves. This electronic-pop Brooklyn duo Eric Emm and Jesse Cohen combined with the Afro-pop and Tropicalia detailing gives songs like "All of Me" and "Real Life" a nice rhythmic feel to get your body swaying. Eric Emm and his soulful yet relaxing voice reminds me a little bit of Vampire Weekend with a little bit of Cut Copy giving each track just the right amount of balance.

This album is going to get me through some great beach days and long summer drives with the window down.  Check out the videos below.

We have all sat around waiting for our turn to play some chess against the winner but what if all three of you could play at once. This isn't going to be an easy game.  Three Man Chess ($TBA) switches the ancient game from a square board to a round one, making room for a third set of pieces — gray, in this case — and opening up a whole new world of possible moves, strategies, and ways to get beaten when you least expect it. Would you rock one of these in your next game?
