This creative/brutal advertisement for a fitness gym announces the weight of the sitter to everyone else waiting for the bus. This would effectively put an end to seat fighting at bus stops. Next, they should just add 10 lbs to everyone's weight for fun.

This wooden gun is extremely pointless and ingenious at the same time, which automatically makes this a great design. What does it do exactly? See for yourself.

Not really under but next to the umbrella, the plant survives on the rainwater drained into the small pot at the bottom. This ceramic umbrella pot is a low-maintenance and sustainable way to keep a small plant in the house.

Nice Crack

I saw this lamp when i visited the ny moma over winter break. The user can take the included chisel and crack open the "egg" to reveal the light within. Different ways of chipping create different levels of illumination through varying porosity. The interactive light fixuture also doubles as an one-of-a-kind work of art. In other words, break me off a piece of that.
