There is not much information available about this product yet. For one, it’s only a possibility: a design and second, it has the potential to capture the market like nothing before. Designed by Italian designer Edoardo Carlinoe and to be released by Deta, we are talking about The Hi-Can that combines four of the gadgets that are frequently used in just one system. It includes a canopy bed, a sound system supporting mp3 audio and an integrated video projection system. The projector can be wisely used as a Monitor for computer and also as a television. I am already in love with this amazing concept.

The only thing to be seen is the price factor and the fact that the concept meets the final product.

With time, the cultural association of any objects changes. There was a time in Nineteenth century when the physicians would go to funeral homes to pick up exhumed skull for research and then came a time when skull and cross bones came to be associated with the occult and later, danger. Now is the time when a skull can mean delving deep into your own space, having a great relaxing time with yourself. The Sensory Deprivation Skull does all that and more for you. It was created in 2007 by Joep van Lieshout of Atelier Van Lieshout.

The major component used in the construction is fiberglass, the structure measures 150 cm tall by 110 cm long and 137 cm wide. It has a bath and a sauna that can be enjoyed in complete privacy.

“The pen is mightier than the sword” wrote Edward Bulwer-Lytton. Little did he know that in future it will be ‘costlier’ also than most things! While it might disappoint our friends who have leftist inclination, the fact is, that pen, once considered a weapon of the intellectuals, has now become a status symbol. Well I am not going to crib or cry about that. If we can spend millions on our silly whims and fantasies, splurging on the good ol’ pen does make sense to me. ( to be taken with a pinch of salt!)

The new Maserati sterling silver pen is designed by none other than Armando Simoni, the true blue native of Italy. Only thing is, he makes a rinascimento in luxury goods! A total of 1,914 pens is all that the company is launching, in memory of the year when the company was established (1,914) as a status symbol.

The pens are available in roller and fountain both. The roller ball costs $2500 and the fountain one is appropriately priced at $2750.

If I could, I would. And now that I can, I surely will. Tired am I of traveling day and night for some assignment or going to some relative’s place and having my life turned upside down completely. Now I plan to save for the latest Caravan house that I intend to buy. Tabbert Paganini is a caravan that fits elegantly in my plans. It has comfortable interiors, proper lighting and enough space to breathe in style. LED spotlights can be adjusted high or dim according to mood.  Oopps, did I mention the three-burner Spinflo cooker having a classy glass panel, and a useful189 liter refrigerator. From the pics, the shower looks spacious enough.

Tabbert’s flagship comes in three versions, from 25 to 28 feet that weighs between 1795 kg (3,957 lbs) and 1975 kg (4,354 lbs). All yours for $55,000. Now I can travel, cook, sleep, bathe, read and do what ever I want in this caravan of my dreams. And will lock myself up inside when I really want to be all by myself! And when I want, I can easily fly away in my house on wheels!

Forget locking your computers with passwords that hackers anyways find out, its better to go the old way and literally lock, stock and barrel your computer. Designer Jacky Nicolas has designed just that, a workstation that can be closed like  a cupboard and locked away till you need it again. It will help you keep all your files and documents, apart from your PC, completely safe.

Called as Cyber Box, it works pretty well at home also. Suppose you have a 3 year old curious daughter who always wants to know what Mommy is doing on her computer and sneaks in when you go out to make her chocolate shake, would you rather not lock your PC inside cyber Box rather than having her do a brilliant editing job of the article you were writing! Makes sense, no?

I am a bicycle lover myself but I detest the idea of having to park it everytime I go to the neighbourhood shop. Why not simply have a bike that I can use when I want to and can pack it and carry with me when I want to walk or halt! My amazing fantasy is being fulfilled by Yirong Yang, the master designer of bicycle who has designed a bike that can be turned into a unicycle any time you want to and can be folded and carried as per needs.

This wonderful design also participated at the International Bicycle Design Challenge. Called as Rotation – a city folding bike, it has adjustable handlebar, the saddle and front wheel. What better way to help making your city pollution free and at the same time grabbing the attention of people around you.

If you are rich and want to show it off but want to buy a wise thing, go ahead and buy yourself a gold bike. It will help you traverse inside your palatial mansion in ease, apart from ecological reasons. You can also use it to take a ride in your farm. Or you can gift it to your better half and make his/her face glow like gold. Created by GoldStriker’s co-founder Stuart Hughes, the bike is self consciously called “24ct gold Hutch Prostar”. Made of 24ct gold and priced at $12,378, this bike is the the most expensive BMX ever produced.

The bike was originally created for some anonymous sports geek in 2002. But the bike is now tailor made for any one willing to shell out $12,378. I think its an ultra cool idea to go green on this gold bike.

The way the majestic mugals bathed in luxury five hundred years back is still unmatched. The specially designed hamams were filled with rose essence and the temperature of water was controlled by falling it over a wall heated by lighting thousands of candles. They understood that bathing is not just a matter of hygiene but a relaxing luxury. Today’s life is easy and we do not have to take all the pains the mughals took to have a relaxing bath. The simplest thing you can do is to buy yourself a Kohler Fountainhead VibrAcoustic Bath. Interestingly, this system works on sound waves, music and LED lighting. The tub has a control panel located at the side of the tub, apart from having a remote control.

There are features to control the temperature of water or to add or remove water from the tub, all at a click of a button. More than that, you can also adjust the sound waves, the volume and the type of music and also the brightness of the light. Kohler Fountainhead VibrAcoustic Bath is reasonably priced $9000, considering the innovative features that it offers.
