The idea behind this design is the unfriendly equipment when we enter the dental hospitals. To ease nervous and tense feeling of patients, the dental chair has to be clean and simple, and instruments have to be quiet and inconspicuous. Chengli Hung designed this chair to hide and integrate different parts of components into a new-moon shape main body. It simplified the whole appearance by decreasing unnecessary parts and concealing complex mechanism. Most elements are hidden inside the body shells. This makes the dental chair easier to keep clean.

The BMW HP2 Megamoto is the second model in the new HP (High Performance) line and here, too, brand values have been consistently implemented. Driving performance and dynamics have been increased and the motorcycle design reduced to its essential elements. The BMW HP2 Megamoto transfers the BMW HP2 Enduro’s attributes of dynamics, lightness and technical perfection to the road. An optimized engine output, an adjustable upside-down fork and the spring strut serve its adaptation for road use, as do a suitable set of tires and cast aluminum wheels. The stylistic expression of this motorcycle is characterized by a compact form, with the emphasis on the front. Viewed from behind and from the rider?s position, its slim silhouette conveys this motorcycle’s easy mobility, as well as a touch of sensuality and driving pleasure.
Shoes for leisure, for summer or winter; shoes for elegant, sporty, or casual times; shoes in brown, blue, or black. There are an infinite number of combinations for this fashion accessory. Besides their elementary function of protecting the feet, shoes also express and represent us ? our style, values, taste, and personality. The progress of trends means that we are again and again compelled to buy new shoes despite the fact that the last year?s shoes may still be in impeccable condition. They are just out fashion. Bubble Shoe is based on the convergence of fashion trends and functionality. It offers the wearer the possibility of expressing his or her own values, lifestyle, and look. It is a transparent shoe. Its style, occasion and look are determined by the designs of the socks or stockings worn beneath.
The shoe itself has a durable sole, resistant to scratches and shock, and a shell composed of two layers of silicon plastic with compressed gas in between. The vamp is vapour permeable, airy, and at the same time water-resistant. It features excellent thermal protection, but still reveals our foot and ourselves. The foot is thus put on display, in a position requiring the wearer to provide it with ?make up? according to their own judgement, choice and courage. Socks have been specially designed for this purpose, and can determine the style and the activity into which the wearer is entering.

This cassette-deck style toaster designed by Arthur Wu can surely match your modern kitchen. Your toast will pop out every morning just like your mix tape in 1980s technology. I like the top switch and the front cool logo. But I see that the design only have one side heating element, which mean we have to flip to side B to heat both side, and that is impractical. Arthur, want to make comment on this ?
