Hammer BA – Modular Hammer by Snežana Jeremić
Hammer BA offers you a hammer with modular weight. We feel like there’s something missing with this design, if only the modular feature is not only weight but also the head shapes. We know that different jobs require different kind of hammers, so, it would be nice to have one hammer that rules them all where we can easily switch different hammer types for different jobs.

Adobe 410 Townsend by Valerio Dewalt Train Associates
Valerio Dewalt Train Associates have designed the the new offices for Adobe in San Francisco.
Project description
Adobe, headquartered 50 miles south in San Jose, established its San Francisco presence when it acquired Macromedia at the end of 2005. Macromedia occupied the historic Baker & Hamilton Building at 601 Townsend Street and the newer 625 Townsend Street next door. Recently, Adobe leased additional space at 410 Townsend Street two blocks away to meet the needs of its growing workforce. Adobe’s new workplace strategy, which was created for their San Jose campus, was implemented at 410 Townsend while providing a unique identity for the space.
Adobe occupies about 44,000 SF, comprising 2-1/2 floors of this 4 story building. When you enter the building, you immediately see Adobe’s illuminated logo to their suite entry situated towards the end of the long and narrow historic lobby. As you enter the space, you are greeted by a custom perforated screen wall, punctuated with the Adobe logo that defines the edge of the large Town Hall space, Hipster. This multi-functional room is designed to be the building’s hub. Creating a venue for all-hands meetings, art openings, guest speakers, hack-a-thons or just lunch with co-workers. The new finishes throughout the space typically provide an impulsive pop of color and texture against the buildings classic SOMA exposed brick and heavy timber structure.
At the second and third floors, visitors are greeted off of the elevator by the folding charcoal entry that is weaving its way around the existing building structure. The upper floors take advantage of the buildings rather long and narrow floor plate by placing conference rooms that run along the building’s core that provide close proximity for the open office area. At the north end, the lounge provides a respite from the bustling work day by providing a great view of the San Francisco skyline. Collaboration is in Adobe’s DNA and each neighborhood features a ‘team relax’ space that takes advantage of the views and provide a casual meeting destination protected by a glazed enclosure. Environmental graphics and branding elements are strategically located throughout the floors, providing imagery that is unique to Adobe and the site.

Shark Vehicle : A Futuristic Vehicle That Drives On Ground and Water
Shark Vehicle is a futuristic vehicle that transforms Drag force to a useful force which can be used to fly. Current automotive makers focus on aerodynamic aspects of their vehicles and how they can reduce the drag force and pass it through themselves, this is a counter approach to Shark. Shark Vehicle takes the design philosophy of catching Drag force and then when the vehicle is lifted from the ground due to air flow resistance, it’ll pass the air flow through the holes on its arms. Just like its name suggests, this vehicle works just the way a shark keeps themselves balance by making those holes open and close pretty quick. This unique ability makes Shark flies more distance and creates smooth moves such as spinning around horizontal axis. This concept futuristic transportation also moves on the ground lightning fast thanks to the rows of small balls inside its arms that work together with electro-magnetic force.
Designer : Amin Einakian
Shark Vehicle aims to become a service vehicle for tourist destinations which have access to water such as Rio de Janeiro. It’s a 1+1 vehicle, it means you can use it with your friend to have fun on water, you can also drive Shark on the ground and after some speed reaches in a specific zone, the Drag force lifts the car after some distance, it will dive into the water. The pointy design of the bottom makes this vehicle is well balanced in the water.

Playful Facet Origami Bag Can Be Folded Flat for Easy Storage
Origami was the main inspiration of this project, as you can clearly see that each Facet bag features unique origami shapes. Yingxi Zhou, a graphic designer, has designed and developed a line of bags with angular structures and are heavily influenced by origami, all bags can be folded flat for easy storage as well as shipping. You can fold it out and create geometric container to use the bag, the maple veneer and fabric materials are durable enough to hold all your daily essentials. We’re not sure if these bags are commercially available or just prototypes, but it looks like she already designed different colors and sizes.
