Tritesil is not the first hybrid cutlery to contain a fork, spoon and knife in one, but it is the first to contain all three tools on one side. Well, it's not really the first, as we could see a similar design as early as World War 1, when military officers used them. It is therefore a modern reinterpretation of practical cutlery, which is ideal for camping, for the mountains or trips, when our backpacks and backpacks are usually bursting at the seams.
Optical illusion or bathroom sink? You'd be forgiven for thinking this ultra-modern Kub sink isn't real. But it is. The almost invisible sink was designed by the Bulgarian Victor Vasilev and is an outstanding example of minimalist industrial design. It is made of glass and Carrara marble (after the city of Carrara), which in antiquity was called marmor lunensis.
How to commemorate the greatness of the man who was the first man to conquer all eight thousand people and the first to climb to the roof of the world without supplemental oxygen? With a book? Maybe a documentary? Reinhold Messner already has all this, but now a museum has been dedicated to this legendary Italian alpinist from South Tyrol in the Italian Alps. It was "curved" by Zaha Hadid, the famous British-Iranian architect, who placed it on top of the mountain.
Every man wants to have his own "Batman's cave", a place where it's just him and his "toys", where he retreats to drink beer or indulge in some other pleasure. Engineer Jono Williams did not dig, but built his Skysphere "cavity" above the ground.

Humans are incorrigible. Although we convince ourselves that we are ecologically aware, little by little we sin in all directions. One such sweet vice is showering. All we really need is a few minutes, but we like to stay in the shower much longer. Since it's not a long shower, let them preach to us about environmental awareness. Well, if it doesn't go well, it will go badly, thought Elisabeth Buecher, who invented Spiky, a spiky shower curtain that "spikes" you after four minutes of showering and forces you to end the shower willy-nilly.
Design studio Sharen Davis Design has built a multipurpose 'treehouse' on an old homestead in Garrison (NY), which is basically a modern children's playground, raised off the ground and placed between tall trees.
