Moshi is a multipurpose kitchenette that includes the induction cooking hub, dish washer, sink, fridge and washing machine in one structure. The entire gamut of appliances is controlled via an interactive touchscreen pad. Designed for apartments that lack space and yet want to host all the comforts of a luxury home, the Moshi targets the young and the restless! From time-marking groceries to recipe cards, and ingredient status of the fridge-contents, all can be controlled and accessed via the pad. So typically for the gadget-savvy.

The is a UK based product designer Daniel Blackband has designed the 15 meter long Orca narrowboat concept. . The inclusion of wire technology to operate the steering wheel has made the concept self-sufficient enough to say ‘no’ to a tiller and rudder. This concept is a vision of a perfect solution for short distance trips to the canal-side pubs, dock-side restaurants and other fun venues.


The self explanatory appearance of the boat can be seen as a great place for living. The concept is giving a sense of spaciousness to the residents. It has been achieved by featuring a functional pop up roof and stress on the quality of luscious interiors.

Hélio Radio uses colourful solar Grätzel panels that are transparent. The Grätzel solar panels get their color from vegetal ink, upping the green quotient. The LED panel and Speakers compliment the radio and are in sync with the form.

“A new generation of solar cells has been born: thin, colored, translucent and even flexible. The source of this revolution is EPFL (Ecole Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne), where Professor Michael Graetzel, inspired by plant photosynthesis, began to use molecules from colorants to transform the sun’s light into electricity. His work drew heavy praise from the scientific community, resulting in a World Technology Award. While many other technological developments have followed, designers need to take advantage of the extraordinary potential of these “dye-sensitized” solar cells.”

The architects describe the Last Resort concept as a ‘floating mobile architecture’. The design recently won a competition, and with funding underway the team expects to begin fabrication on these sleek water homes by the end of the year.

According to RAFAA, the conceptual requirements of being in motion and the desire to simultaneously feel at home are contradictory in nature. This difficulty is resolved by a new typology that will deal with usability, space and technology.


The two-level structure is about five meters wide and 15 meters long. Sleeping bunks, technical equipment and hatches are built into the lower deck. The design recently won a competition, and with funding underway the team expects to begin fabrication on these sleek water homes by the end of the year.
The floating home is about 5 meters wide and 15 meters long with two levels. Sleeping bunks, mechanical equipment and hatches are on the lower level and the upper level contains living space, a kitchen, a bathroom and two bedrooms.

In total there are six beds and a sliding panel helps close off the rooms for more privacy. Vertical blinds on the facade act as shading devices for the interior as well as a privacy system. Stairs lead up to the roof, which serves as an extra deck, and roof-integrated solar panels generate electricity for the two electric engines that propel the home.

The horizontal, undulated shape of the waterfront is inspiration for the design of the project. Furthermore, it serves as means for orientation for the residents. The landscape can be understood as an extension of the living room. Therefore, an unobstructed view of the landscape enhances the spatial quality of the design.

The bullet train is moving all the time. If there are 30 stations between Beijing and Guangzhou , just stopping and accelerating again at each station will waste both energy and time.
A mere 5 min stop per station will result in a total loss of 5 min x 30 stations or 2.5 hours of train journey time!

1. For those who are boarding the train : The passengers at a station embarks onto to a connector cabin way before the train even arrives at the station. When the train arrives, it will not stop at all. It just slows down to pick up the connector cabin which will move with the train on the roof of the train.

While the train is still moving away from the station, those passengers will board the train from the connector cabin mounted on the train’s roof. After fully unloading all its passengers, the cabin connector cabin will be moved to the back of the train so that the next batch of outgoing passengers who want to alight at the next station will board the connector cabin at the rear of the train roof.

2. For those who are getting off: As stated after fully unloading all its passengers, the cabin connector cabin will be moved to the back of the train so that the next batch of outgoing passengers who want to alight at the next station will board the connector cabin at the rear of the train roof. When the train arrives at the next station, it will simply drop the whole connector cabin at the station itself and leave it behind at the station. The outgoing passengers can take their own time to disembark at the station while the train had already left. At the same time, the train will pick up the incoming embarking passengers on another connector cabin in the front part of the train’s roof. So the train will always drop one connector cabin at the rear of its roof and pick up a new connector cabin in the front part of the train’s roof at each station.
