  • "I don't think 'awesome' is the right term here, this is certainly different.  Infrastructure in Switzerland is really 'built' -Skookum, and quite often done with flair, tastefully so in most cases.In this case, sheetmetal benches straddling Jersey wall type concrete barriers,  I don't know.In one pic it seems obvious they forgot to include trash bins in the setting."

  • "That was also my first impression - similar concept as the Marshmellow Sofa.  That was Irving Harper working at Nelson Studio.  George Nelson put his name on everything that came out of his studio."

  • "Electric shaver ??  It's not nearly as annoying as a Cyber truck and also less so than a Tesla - the white ones make me think of soft serve or a knurdle of toothpaste."

  • "I am waiting for a reasonably-priced plain-Jane (nice-looking without being weird) that will get me from here to there, is fun to drive (peppy but no need for big hp/kw).  It could be an ICE or hybrid as long as it burned clean (surely that's possible).  A hatchback or small pick-em-up truck would be fine."

  • "The bubble top brought the Jetsons to mind though I won't admit to watching that cartoon.Car designers today are trying too hard for a futuristic look. "

  • "Looking at the gate standing open, I thought at first the rock and chain made a gravity-powered gate closer, (very clever).  Maybe that's correct but I can't see hinges. There's no jam so the hinges could be hook and eye anchored straight into the rocks.Need more pics to understand the engineering here."

  • "Very clever and beautifully executed!I would like to know if there was a design brief or it this was just observed problem to solve.Obviously, it took some capiral to develop - what's the backsory?"

  • "If that price is for a completed unit with finishes, it seems too good to be true.If it is just for the shell, a stick-build could beat that price (and the time-frame with a decent crew) and one wouldn't end up with such a wierd-looking structure.Always the land and infrastructure hooks-ups are above construction costs - that 'price of a car' starts looking like an exotic one."

  • "Toggles right, I had 'em on the dash of my '60's vintage British roadster.  I wish knobs and toggles would come back on cars - 'hate those touchscreens.At least some are now in the home!"

  • "A rectangle is 2D.  'Not sure any shape can be 'the best', they're all good.Take a guess at what these geometric shapes combine to be."

  • "Dögg,  As usual, a superbly original concept from you. I'll see you next week at Epal with a couple new ideas myself."

  • "Yeah, plenty is left out of this equation, BUT, I do like the deposit that promises a refund later - most plastic and toxic stuff should be like that, like cars, especially EVs - all those 3/4 ton batteries at some future date will be a problem. Even better would be a no deposit refund or buyback, an attractive one."
