    Solutions For The Hearing Impaired At The Drive Thru

    This is something never occurred to me: hearing impaired people can’t use drive thrus. The same revelation came to me when I saw this youtube video of a blind man showing how difficult it is to use an ATM- even with braille. Then I went to a party with a friend who has a heavy [...]

    Artisan Marshmallows

    Yay! Can we be done with cupcakes now? Sorry cupcake fanatics, but I’m kinda over trawling through what seems like infinite articles on bacon and cupcakes. I’m ready for a new food fads! Well, apparently “artisan marshmallows” are forecasted to be the sweet food craze of 2012. Recently featured by ABC’s The Chew where they [...]

    Luxury Brands Time Traveling

    We know fashion often draws from the past in an ever evolving cycle of appropriation. Like when it’s inspired by previous fads and generations. I used to joke last decade when the 80′s came back… What next? A 90′s fad? Errrrr yep. Anyway, this time Prada has reached back to the Fifties with classic American [...]

    Cool Red Buses That Are Green

    When I lived in Melbourne, Australia for 2 years I never needed to drive a car… Not even once. There are trams that come every 10mins and some buses are even more regular. The rest of the time I was on my bike. When I tell my LA friends this, they look at me with [...]

    Peacocking With Alpha Nail

    Sometimes a piece comes along that can fit into several CultureWaves™. This is one of them. What we have here is a nail polish aimed squarely at men which made me immediately think: Yin Yang Blend™: “I see the line between sexes as blurred.”™ But then I checked out the site and thought whoa!

    Branding That’s “Army Strong”

    Some may accuse me of being a little too open to conspiracy theories, but this is so blatant I don’t even have to put my tin foil hat on.

    Reverse Aging To Gain Insights

    Empathy is not usually a word that springs to mind when I think of good design.  However,  MIT believes that’s exactly what the designers, product developers and engineers of the future will need.  They believe that we have to come to terms with the fact we are an aging population, and we will need to [...]
