"Maxdoor" might just be your door in the future

The bazilian design group nódesign has come up with a new fron door design to go along with "maxhaus" housing concept in Brazil. This new front door concept uses
a remote control instead of a key and opens automatically by touching the doorknob. Along with with the cool feature of not having to set down your groceries to enter you apartment, the "Maxdoor" also features a digital door bell, LED lock and number lighting, sound proofing, hidden peephole and a backup battery, which allows it to work for up to a week without power. The hardest part about creating new age hi tech gadgetry is keeping the average non tech savvy client up to speed. Although this front door concept is very high tech, it has a simple interface making it approachable to all users.

The Sexiest Keyboard Never Made

Screw the Optimus Maximus, I want this sweet sexiness called a keyboard. The Optimus Maximus has just recently started taking orders and already art lebedev studio's has released this concept named "Optimus Tactus". This futuristic keyboard concept uses a flat touch screen style interface. Meaning, there are no size or shape restriction in keys. So instead of changing certain function for each key(s) you could play video, display color swatches, create your own "keyboard" layout. You dream it and with this keyboard, it has the potential to make it happen. Hopefully...

Food Sneakers

Ever go out for your morning jog and realize you ran like Forrest Gump only to find out there's no place to eat within 50 miles? Well I have... And that is exactly why these new Air Force One burgers are on the top of my To Make/Buy/Do/Eat list. I myself prefer Puma Hoagies or the Adidas Marmalade. Hey, to each his own
