Step Flush




Let’s say you’re in a public restroom and it’s pretty gross. Have you ever used your foot to flush the toilet? I’ll admit it.


Lorenzo Buffa, Christina Zapata, and Teagan Ruane have come up with a concept called StepFlush to avoid using your hands to flush public toilets.


Check out the whole presentation, including the unappetizing sanitary facts, on Coroflot.

Jorine


I’ve been a fan of Jorine for some time. This hotcup is certainly a novel idea. The cup can be inserted into the saucer keeping the drink hot. The air between the cup and the saucer functions as insulation.

The sledding photo cracks me up. I guess you could think of the chair as being so sleek that it just glides…
