Products
When the bacon themed products started to appear everywhere, I thought, “Really? Someone is making money off this?” As a creative agency, we have some pretty crazy (and we’d like to think, good) ideas bouncing around the office. But these products took the combination of creativity + design to a whole new level. Whether you find them useful in your own life or not, you have to admit that the designer has a special kind of imagination.
Shag Carpet Skateboard
I have an idea: Let’s combine the street-cred activity of the 80’s with the flooring of the 60’s. I’m no skater, but I always thought the sandpaper surface was there for a reason (maybe grip?), since they’ve all had it since the dawn of the sport. But if these guys can really pull it off by just by adding a slice of Grandma’s den floor, I say, “Skate or vacuum, dude!”

Cardboard Animal Trophies
Hey look! I caught a cardboard elephant and mounted it on the wall! Although I’m a little confused by this one, I can’t help but wonder how much time the original artist put into not only the basic design, but tweaking the measurements for the cuts. And there are multiple animals to choose from.

Modular Cardboard Walls
Cardboard seems to be a pretty popular material. We discovered this one when we were looking for an inexpensive, temporary way to create a partition in our open space (ie. hide some of our junk). They come in all colors, require no tools, and are made from recycled cardboard. I think we ordered five boxes, and I put it together, so I can tell you it’s super easy. Makes a very neat focal point. (MIOCulture.com)
QLOCKTWO Wall Clock
Wall clocks have become decoration at this point, and this one is a beauty. A fun twist on the digital clock, it comes in several different colors, and is like a combination of a digital clock and a word search puzzle. (Amazon.com)
Convertible Sofa Bunk Bed
At first glance, this has a bit of an Ikea vibe to it. But this is much more innovative than your standard fold out couch. Transforming into bunk beds rather than a standard bed, we’re back to a modern, space-saving product with clean lines and functionality. (Bonbon.co.uk)
