New London Rubbish Bin By Paul Smith
Design Museum has joined forces with Beefeater 24 to celebrate the fearlessly progressive spirit of London’s greatest creative minds, past and present. At the heart of the exhibition are fifteen commissions from some of London’s most dynamic creatives, as a group they demonstrate the diverse approaches to design in London. Among the participants in the exhibition are Zaha Hadid, Tom Dixon, Paul Smith and others.
Paul Smith created a rabbit rubbish bin for the city of London. The ‘New London Rubbish Bin’ will be popping up in Covent Garden and Holland Park for a four-month trial period from 28th May. The giant rabbit bins, with ears that light up when anyone puts rubbish in them, are Paul Smith’s contribution to Super Contemporary – an exhibition which opens on 3rd June 2009 at the Design Museum.
Microsoft XBOX 360 Project Natal | Controller-Free Gaming
During the E3 conference Microsoft gave a first preview of their upcoming Project Natal for XBOX 360. We have to admit that is is quite impressive. Playing games, watching movies, listening to music and much more can be done with Project Natal without a controller. The Nintendo Wii certainly introduced the idea, but this takes it much further. There is no release date so far, but the system, which is placed below your TV screen looks very promising! Check out the video above to get a better idea.
