Swirl Tap by Simin Qiu
Swirl Tap is a conceptual faucet design by Simin Qiu, a Royal College of Art student, that won a 2014 IF Concept Design Award. This innovative tap design makes water flow in a swirling vortex pattern that is claimed to be able to save 15% more water compared to standard taps. Based on the photos below, wow…the water flows in a beautiful pattern, thanks to 2 turbines that create the effect. It uses 2 separate flow elements of varying diameters where one spinning clockwise and the other counter clockwise. The intertwined pattern produces mesmerizing, soft water flow that feels good when hits your hands. Swirl Tap is operated by touching a switch at the top. Due to its unique mechanism, water still comes out with the same pressure as standard faucet even though it uses less.

Ground Wakeboard Is A Combination of A Fuel Cell Car and Hoverboard
Ground Wakeboard is a conceptual project that inspired by the idea where Toyota works together with Yamaha, two popular transportation makers. The concept car is a fuel cell crossover Toyota “Cross Cruiser” that pulls Yamaha “Hover Board”. It’s a unique concept, perhaps dedicated to people who love extreme sports to make their life even more exciting.
Cross Cruiser is a fuel cell concept car that generates high power electricity, connected to the Hover Board through a wire cable, it powers the fans to levitate the board. The board doesn’t need any heavy batteries, fuel, or engines, it’s made possible to levitate due to its lightweight. The rear glass of the car can be removed where passengers could enjoy rear-deck like as if they are in a boat or yacht.

Mercedes One Class Revenge by Alfonso Nuñez Perea
In a training specializing in Advanced Industrial Design in Córdoba, Argentina; a “Revenge” 2030 year, Mercedes Benz motorcycle concept was proposed. It is remarkable the degree of innovation using aesthetics and sculptural Brand design lines. “Powerful, dynamic and sculptural” are the design cornerstones that the industrial designer Alfonso Nuñez Perea chose to develop the concept.
The development is to generate a new segment, Mercedes Benz Class 1, and incorporate sports and vehicle safety and comfort characters, such as the ability to handle the bike with integrated hands “into a space” as a novelty. This system would incorporate an elastic material to adapt to the user, which in turn would provide heating. When folded, the hands are protected, and most curious is that the vehicle is completely divided to compensate tilt swivel and give freedom in handling.
Designer : Alfonso Nuñez Perea
