And a segue from the automobile to other forms of transportation, the Yikebike... actually its more like an electric scooter and it folds up for your convenience...http://www.yikebike.com/

Ok need to cut down the power consumption of the electricity hungry candles.. http://www.earthtronics.com/honeywell.aspx Picture 726.png
Hell why not power the whole house? Picture 725.png

And after all that I need a drink. (Actually this beautiful object is a bottle. It is supposed to be fro Sora Ale. To me it looks like a rendering, but I can't find anything more out about it. Anyone heard of this?)

I checked out your link and had a look. The shower/tub was designed by Ron Arad. He is an Architect who does a lot of product design apparently. A bit more of his work.

Tim Cooper. Yes this is a rendering. http://www.behance.net/timcooper3D/frame
You really should take the time to view his work.

Yup, Tim Cooper is amazing, he has such an attention to the tiniest detail, I remember his Police stilleto's, the miniscule lights were modeled to the tees.

I'd love to have the time and try model and render the webber charcoal BBQ myself, it will be a hard challenge but fun.

dale

Might be a worthwhile challenge sometime (hint), those are always hard for me but I learn so much. I was knocked out by his work. There is one on the "Behance " site of a chocolate elephant on a biscuit, it is amazing. This is the image I stumbled upon that I followed up on and found his work.
