Design

Check out ID Magazine's "Product of the Week" blog. (Make sure you click "Next" at the bottom of the page to see more designs.) Do any of these designs appeal to you? Why? Are any of these designs unappealing to you? Why?

  1. After looking at the first page, all I could think was "don't people have better things to do with their time". I like more practical useful items and many of these were more about design than use.
    I could appreciate these as art, but not really as useful items.

  2. There are some extremely neat and unique objects on this site. However, there are some that are highly unneccessary. The ballon table was just strange and it shocks me that people would pay $350 for that.

  3. I was impressed with some of the imaginative items, but Diane is right - there was nothing on the pages that I couldn't live without. Now if I had an unlimited budget and a 5,000 square foot home . . .

  4. While impressed with the imagination of the creators of many of these products, I too find myself asking ---are these practical and do I need to spend this "extra" money on something that is in many ways no more than a conversational piece. However, I did LOVE the lightweight eyeglasses. As an eyeglass wearer, I would definitely buy these!

  5. While looking at the first screen, I immediately could picture which students would enjoy these products. These students tend to be the trend setters in school.

  6. I loved the clock with 9, noon, and 5! Kind of gives 9-5 a legitimacy in these modern times. If only....
