D/A Clock - bachelor pad worthy!
Came across this here at Yankodesign. This just screams cool, if you detail it just write and have this clock embedded into your matching white wall, then place some subtle downloading above it to accent the digital protrusions, you've got something at your apartment people come over to drool over.
This cool clock was designed by Alvin Aronson and its definitely very very cool.
Space Invader boxers - you knew you'd see it sooner or later
Yeah I'm a bit time Space Invader fan. I'm not sure that I'd wear these though. T-shirts and kicks maybe, but boxers... Um... Came across them here at Kotaku.
First Aid Kit - Redesign
Long story short, Johnson & Johnson has turned to designer Harry Allen to redesign the first aid kit. This is something I'd defiantly like to get for my own place. Gotta dig for details and find out where I can get it! More here at Yanko Design
5.5 Amusing wallpapers
I came across these really great wallpapers here. With everyone so used to interactivity why not make your walls an interactive piece of art. Well to be honest I could imagine that most people would get this product and then there walls would end up looking like ass but still the concept is great and a fantastic time waster. I'd love to wallpaper the main hallway of my apartment with this. Get it here.
1930's Retro Cordless Phone
I'm not saying i'm THAT old but i did used to have these types of phones in my house, and I must say the form factor was always more pleasing. Might be my imagination but you seem to get less neck pains when you clamp these phones between your cheek and shoulder. Again this is me finding more useless stuff that would just sit pretty on the table of my future apartment. If I get the girlfriend's approval I'd definately get one of these phones at Amazon.

Rollertoaster - A breakfast center piece
This is definately a toaster that you wouldn't want to hide away in the kitchen if you decided to get one. Thing restaurant industrial toaster that has a sleek look of a compact scanner and you got the Rollertoaster designed by Jaren Goh. You can check it out here, from what I can tell though it doesn't seem to be commercially available just yet.
This would make your otherwise uneventuful breakfast session into something magical, as long as you can keep the kids fingers out of this toaster I'm sure children would have a riot with this thing. Somehow this thing just feels like your cooking toast instead of putting bread in a toaster. (via:Apartment Therapy)
Collusor - The Ultimate Party Game/ Coffee Table Show Piece
click on gif for animation
I first came across this game at a friends house last year. Its a game based on some pretty amazing physics principles where through the use of inertia and momentum you can get the steel ball to roll upwards between the 2 steel shafts. The goal of the game is to roll the ball as far up the 2 shafts as possible then drop the ball into the ladder like score slots below. Designed by Molcik- Design this is German Engineering making useless gadgets at its best.
Having one of these on your coffee table is like having a rubix cube sitting on your coffee table. Everyone will want to touch it, play with it but not everyone will actually get it. Ok so this is a lot easier to get than a rubix cube but it definately looks cooler and you get points for having something new for other people to play with. Think of it like having a Wii while everyone else has 360.
If you've got a bunch of friends over then you can make a drinking game out of it as well. After seeing one at my friends house I was lucky enough to come across one in a department store outlet and pick it up for a fraction of its price. If your interested in one of these you should probably go check out some high end department stores or check out the german website here. Collusor will cost you around 100 US depending on where you get it but its fun, looks cool and rather addictive.
Bachelor Pad Worthy – Sony's "hide-and-seek" Bravia TAV-L1
This Sony All in One TV looks pretty sweet. Reminds me of the B&O TV and DVD in one. If your setting up a bachelor pad, you definately will choose looks over a lot of things. With this package you get yourself a flat screen 32 inch with a DVD player and a hifi all in one. The kicker is that its Sony so your pretty much going to get quality stuff across the board. Generally all in one's scare me but if your apartment is cramped for space and you really want that WOW factor this is the unit for you. Due out in October in a variety of colours, keep your eye out for this one. Read more here (via: Engadget)
