Absolutely Unique Bikes – “Write a Bike”

You’ve probably seen a lot of variations of bikes already and even perhaps choose one for yourself. But this bike allow you to be absolutely unique! Swiss art director Juri Zaech came up with a witty and original series of bikes. Their frames are created in form of elegant inscriptions of names of their owners. Series is called “Write a bike”. This is really clever idea! At the momet it’s just a concept but designer is working on a way to produce a prototype of one of the bikes.

Jaguar C-X75

From Youngester

The C-X75 keeps the momentum going with a preview of the future that has the brand embracing its signature feline curves and the power you would expect under the hood of a Jaguar. So what's under the hood? A sophisticated hybrid system that features two micro-gas turbines combined with four Lithium powered electric motors (which in electric-mode can have you going for up to 68 miles) each touting 195 horsepower and 295lb-ft of torque. According to the company the car can potentially achieve 205 miles per hour and a 0 to 62 time of 3.4 seconds. Oh, and it can do that with zero tailpipe emissions in urban usage.

Greener Jaguar is one we can all get used to. Link

Zero Moto – Concept of High-Speed Electric Motorcycle

Eco concepts more and more confidently enter into the life of modern people – eco building, eco cars, and now – eco motorcycles. The presence of an electric motor for motorcycles is nothing new but the concept of the motorcycle we will show today – is not just electric motorcycle. “Zero Moto” – is a concept of eco all-while drive motorcycle with electric motors placed in the front and rear wheels and on-board processor for the control of torque. First of all you will notice an unusual, futuristic design of the concept developed by designer Wes Rhoad. The inspiration for such a design was the Art Deco Steam Locomotives.

Rolling Stone Concept car

There are more and more concepts of individual eco cars – prototypes of the cars of the future – appear every year. Today’s concept – a futuristic creation of Russian designer Vitaly Kononov – is called "Rolling Stone". A very accurate title for the vehicle having so fantastic design. The corp of the car consists of two large wheels on each side of the capsule housing the only passenger. The car moves through the electric motors receiving power from onboard batteries. The design of concept is intersting by itself – both sides of the concept car are LED screens on which the pilot can show any photo or video.

Bugatti Aerolithe

This stunning concept was created by 22 years old designer Douglas Hogg for his final project at Coventry University ( Automotive design course ). The prototype of this Bugatti concept is legendary vehicle showcased at the 1935 Paris Motor Show – Bugatti Electron Aerolithe. As Douglas explains, the concept is "a minimalist exercise in pure surfacing [...] inspired by Ettore Bugatti’s principles of automotive design and the legacy of the original Aerolithe." In this design the doors – which integrate part of the dashboard – adopt an original opening system, dubbed "split opening canopy", which "adds drama to getting in and out gives easy access to the interior."

10 Innovative Subway Advertisements

This ad is so clever because it’s hardly an ad in the traditional sense. Above, Ikea has become a part of the subway car itself. We know we’d rather sit on a colorful, plush couch than a rigid, plastic bench that becomes less forgiving to our bottoms the further we travel.

To pass the time while waiting for your boyfriend or an acquaintance who just flew into the city and is most likely lost, why not pretend you’re on holiday at some opulent ski resort? This ad can galvanize your imagination.

Don’t you appreciate ads that are aware of their setting? Instead of simply pasting a bunch of identical advertisements all over the city, this company put in a bit more effort. The joke is morbid, yet appreciated.

This one targets those who feel emotional comfort from physically holding a beer. If that’s you, it might mean you just had a hard day at the office; it might also mean you’re developing a life-long problem.

Any ad that makes people look is doing something right. But does dangling potatoes from the ceiling of a subway tunnel make people want to buy mass quantities of Lay’s potato chips?

Simplicity is important, and this ad pulls it off. The only negative side to converting a portion of railing into a dumbbell is that countless drunk jocks will use it as a chin-up bar. While doing a few reps they’ll make exaggerated grunts and moans to impress their equally obnoxious and garrulous friends.

This ribald ad by Durex works the participation angle. It’s borderline offensive and if you need to catch the train, impossible to avoid interacting with. Ethics aside, it is definitely bold.

Can you actually listen to music if you plug in a set of headphones? More importantly, what kind of music does it play? This ad works because it’s got us wondering.

Another way to pass the time: trying on fake watches.

Just like the couches inside the subway, Ikea also put some on the platform. It’s like waiting for the train in your living room. The only downside here is that we’d imagine the couches get pretty gross pretty quick. Accidents happen, and not every city dweller makes hygiene a top priority.

Renault Electric Concept Sports

The company recently introduced the Renault stunning concept electric car. Its design, you can evaluate yourself. As for "stuffing", the bright red DeZir equipped with a powerful electric motor, allowing the car for 5 seconds to accelerate from 0 to 97 km / h. Charging the lithium-ion battery takes about half an hour, and this charge is enough for 160 km. The length of the machine is 4,2 m, weight - only 830 kg. Until quite unclear whether Renault is going to do mass production models.

Green technology Green Planet

The term "technology" refers to the application of knowledge for practical purposes.

The field of "green technology" encompasses a continuously evolving group of methods and materials, from techniques for generating energy to non-toxic cleaning products.

The present expectation is that this field will bring innovation and changes in daily life of similar magnitude to the "information technology" explosion over the last two decades. In these early stages, it is impossible to predict what "green technology" may eventually encompass.

The goals that inform developments in this rapidly growing field include:

Sustainability - meeting the needs of society in ways that can continue indefinitely into the future without damaging or depleting natural resources. In short, meeting present needs without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs.

"Cradle to cradle" design - ending the "cradle to grave" cycle of manufactured products, by creating products that can be fully reclaimed or re-used.

Source reduction - reducing waste and pollution by changing patterns of production and consumption.

Innovation - developing alternatives to technologies - whether fossil fuel or chemical intensive agriculture - that have been demonstrated to damage health and the environment.

Viability - creating a center of economic activity around technologies and products that benefit the environment, speeding their implementation and creating new careers that truly protect the planet.

Energy

Perhaps the most urgent issue for green technology, this includes the development of alternative fuels, new means of generating energy and energy efficiency.

Green building

Green building encompasses everything from the choice of building materials to where a building is located.

Environmentally preferred purchasing

This government innovation involves the search for products whose contents and methods of production have the smallest possible impact on the environment, and mandates that these be the preferred products for government purchasing.

Green chemistry

The invention, design and application of chemical products and processes to reduce or to eliminate the use and generation of hazardous substances.

Green nanotechnology

Nanotechnology involves the manipulation of materials at the scale of the nanometer, one billionth of a meter. Some scientists believe that mastery of this subject is forthcoming that will transform the way that everything in the world is manufactured. "Green nanotechnology" is the application of green chemistry and green engineering principles to this field.
