Eastpak x Edbanger Records Collection


Later this year Eastpak will be releasing their latest collaborative project with French electro label Edbanger Records. Edbanger art director So_Me chose two of the most popular styles from Eastpack, the Padded Pack’r” and the “Delegate” messenger bag and gave it the Edbanger touch. Both bags come in two colorways, featuring a So_Me all-over design - silver grey/black and purple/black.

All bags feature a special cut-out Emaille-Pin on the inside. Hidden, the pins have to be cut out of an interior pocket and feature a special registration code, with which you can then download special collaborative content from Eastpak and Edbanger Records.

Look out for a release of the Eastpak x Edbanger Records Collection around October 2009.

Split Box Shelving



The “Split Boxes” by Peter Marigold, a London based designer, might not look like one of the sleekest storage spaces around, however, it presents a simple yet innovative geometry of design that promises to give an interestingly unique look to your home or office storage. Carve out of a single piece of wood split into four creating the total angle of 360 degrees, though not perfectly calculated, the boxes are available in multiple woods and plywood finish with stainless fasteners. No matter if you interchange the angles of a particular box, it’ll will always form a whole. Moreover, you may add/stack or remove boxes from the storage space according to your needs and availability of space, while playing with your creative instincts.

If you dig Pandora, Livio Rock is for you



Livio Radio, which was especially designed for the Pandora, a web-based service. As I said, Pandora is a free site that gives its users the chance to pick their favorite music and then it plays back similar tunes. More than that, the Livio Radio lets you appreciate the music you’re listening to with thumbs-up and thumbs-down buttons, which is pretty much like the real Pandora site. This way, you can let the device know what your preferences are.
The Livio Radio costs $150 and you can connect it to Ethernet or Wi-Fi. This is the easiest way for you to have at your disposal tons of music that you will most certainly love very much. Another great advantage of the radio is the fact that it comes with a stereo Line Out jack, which means you can connect external speakers to it. Or a subwoofer, if you like.
