Waking up with the smell of Mom cooking breakfast

No one likes to wake up, especially by an alarm. This clock gently wakes you up with the aroma of bacon, just like waking up on a Sunday morning.

A frozen strip of bacon is placed in Wake n’ Bacon the night before. Two halogen lamps are slowly cooking the bacon in about 10 minutes.

A snake on the wall?

This is actually a radiator. If all radiators looked like this, house designs would be much more cheerful. The radiator was designed by a Swedish student Daniel Enoksson, for Droog design.

Playful and Elegant Wet Lamp

Series of glass lamps with a tempting water-submerged light bulb at its center. When a thin silver rod is slid into the water, the Wet Lamp turns on and becomes gradually brighter as the rod is submerged.

Looks like it came from a mad scientist’s secret lab.

Delusional shroom-free wallpaper

Optical illusion on your wallpaper – how is that? Makes you dizzy? Surrealien guys make wallpaper slapped onto walls, disregarding the surface. Windows, doors, switches rip holes – all transformed into continuous patterns. Beautiful work, a bit delusional, though.
