Radiator Mug.
See the resemblance between the radiator mug and under the hood of your car? Thought so. The ridges in the mug help to keep your hand from burning off while drinking hot beverages.

Listography Journal.
I need this!
List-makers rejoice! This quirky and imaginative guided journal is the ultimate tool for creating a unique autobiography entirely in list form. Some lists are obvious (greatest accomplishments, best friends, favorite food), others obscure (guiltiest pleasures, greatest acts of kindness, personal fashion trends), and each list is accompanied by hilarious illustrations. Listography is perfect for getting down all the details of a life less ordinary.

Honda Cog.
Remember Honda’s Cog commercial that was filmed in one fell swoop after hundreds of takes? If so, renew your love. If not prepare yourself for love at first sight.

Without Poster.
Loving this interactive poster from the always creative/guerilla Not For Commercial Use. It has the feel of a really big scratch-off instant lottery ticket, dontcha think?

Lovejoy Vodka.
Really lovely package design for Lovejoy Vodka by ID Branding. There are four labels available, allowing the buyer to fit the design to their mood and taste at any given moment. New designs will be released with time and older ones retired, making each a sort of collector’s item. Love it.

La Sorrentina.
Needless to say, with an iffy stomach I haven’t been able to drink any of my mandatory coffee for the past few days. And it’s killing me! I’m pretty sure I’d at least feel better about it if I had the La Sorrentina coffee machine to gaze upon. What a beautiful example of form meeting function – love the steam nozzle hanging off the back!

Drawing From Life: The Journal as Art.
I’ve long considered sketchbooks and journals art in their own right. Maybe not always finished pieces, but embryonic thoughts and ideas that came to fruition elsewhere. Jennifer New has taken this idea and compiled 31 list-, chart-, and sketch-filled journals by painters, filmmakers, engineers, designers, and other visual thinkers into Drawing From Life: The Journal as Art.
