Sewing is something we spend a lot of time doing here at the Unplggd Asylum. We have a number of machines but they are generally what one would call... purpose-built. Ok, let's face the hard truth: ...
We don't even imbibe and we're interested with this bartending gadget that allows you to dispense up to five beverages directly from the bottle/container. Basically the compact pre-plumbed and pre-wir...

It was actually the look of this power bar that first caught my eye, but it was the USB programmable aspect that kept my attention. Why do we need a USB programmable power strip? It can save you 70% i...
It's hard to recycle CD's, we know. We've seen previous attempts of using CD's to make a lamp, but it's nothing as elaborate or dramatic as the lamps Transparent House have created with old cassette t...
Ok, so this isn't a home, but the new headquarters for Germany's leading tabloid and Europe's largest newspaper Bild has some rad tech ideas. The upgrade was done by German architect trio KINZO, who ...

I don't know how my girlfriend does it, but she does a majority of her computer work in positions I mostly conjugate with images of newborns in a crib or those bed bound in a convalescent home. I migh...
We are loving this concept for a clock. What looks like four bars covered in jibberish actually turns into numerals as they pass through the central black 'clock'. Also, once each individual bar rises...

While many people are alright with their standard laptop speakers or built-in monitor sound emitters, audiophiles will go a long way to try and convince you how much blaring distortion is present from...
Coffice. Strange name huh? My first thought was coffin, which is not really where you want to be, but perhaps office furniture maker Bene meant it to be a combination of 'coffee' and 'office'...which ...
They say sharing is caring. We guess Marlon and Jace aren't subscribers to that idea, and thus have two side-by-side flat screens so they can enjoy whatever they want separately. The couple likes to w...

This isn't really meant to protect your MacBook Air while it is left outside in a tent, but the sleeping bag inspiration definitely gives us a unique take on the standard laptop sleeve. ...
For those who must have it all, add the Vision One Desk to your list of items this coming Christmas (or your birthday, whichever comes first). While it's to take advantage of the luxurious, adjustable...
Last week we showed you Optimo's new handheld projector, but what we're really coveting is a concept from Won-Seok Lee. The B-Membrane features an omni-directional lens that lets you project onto any ...

The fast food version of DIY, kind of like picking up a tube of cookie dough at the grocery store and offering your guests home baked cookies...but who are we to argue with convenience. Bottom line is...

The complex pattern of the snowflake naturally translated into...a USB flash drive. But of course. Definitely beautiful to look at, but not particularly practical as something that would end up being ...
Recently announced D-Link DIR-628 Rangebooster N Dual Band Router has finally dropped down to, what I consider the "magical price range" for electronics - around $100. While advanced features are stri...
Drop ceilings always have the stigma of being ugly or taking up valuable ceiling height in a basement. But what if you had the option to virtually open it up to the sky? What would you say?

How cool are these vintage-style DIY headphones, created by MAKE Flickr photo pool member j.rusten:
Since I listen to music/podcasts/audiobooks throughout the day while I'm working, I adapted a pair o...
Bookshelves, TV stand, and lamps all on one continuous line. Think of it as a 3 dimensional etch a sketch. A cool concept no doubt, but if you are the type that likes to rearrange your furniture every...
Switzerland design company Lifegoods has just released a simple wooden collection of office furniture that includes a desk that features a slit down the middle for wire and cabling control and angled ...

We're not big gamers, but at Digital Downtown earlier this month we found out an interesting tidbit about projectors and video games. According to Panasonic's rep, most projectors suffer a small lag ...
