UP is a product line that includes both furnishing and lighting elements for urban environments aiming to connect different people, markets and cultures. This design is a result of a young and inspiring team who think differently in principle and features from a bicycle stand and bollard to a bench. This formal design idea is carried throughout the entire product line and will enable the user to plan and produce more aesthetically rational cityscape. This product was developed in order to make our future cities more pleasant, attractive, and livable, and make the people happier than ever.
Just because of the efficient functionality of this product line, it has received various positive feedbacks from many important personnel. The starting point of designing this useful product collection was the simple and rounded bollard. Different functions were adjoined by making various incisions and the main outline was converted into a wide-ranging and versatile range of products. In order to get the most from the product line, placing and organizing them accordingly is very much important. Implementing these artifacts will surely bring a significant difference in the appearance of our current city life which will be able to change the entire lifestyle of the urban city people.

Use of Helicopters for lifting heavy items are not that trendy in the recent world but still there is always a need of a helicopter that can lift gigantic items for easy and quick transportation. This heavy lift robotic helicopter concept was designed during last 2008 with keeping giant lifting capabilities in mind. The innovative design will let the helicopter to pull a remarkably high object and the placing of the propellers have made them easy movable to offer better control. Both of the landing beams are supported with three hydraulic legs that can increase or reduce the height of the giant lifter.

Novague, a Prague design studio, have proposed a rocking chair concept that will be able to produce enough power for a reading light by converting the rocking motion into electricity. The LED lamp is empowered by a dynamo that can convert the mechanic energy acquired by the movement of the chair into electric energy. A simple steam engine like kinematic mechanism is set under the seat which works with a sliding lever that pulls a flywheel disc while the chair rocks. Produced energy is either supplied to the LED lamp or deposited in the batteries for later use. The aim of the principle is to develop the awareness among mass people of producing their required energy easily by themselves.

The concept of Eol’eau has two major working principles: collecting rain water and then generating electricity by using the wind energy with implementing a wind generator. The water tank resides in the base with a capacity of 600 liter. Eol’eau offers a prospect to water flowers, fields and large areas with more convenience than other traditional watering-pot. There is also a water pump to pressurize the system allowing the device to connect with rubber hose and apply it for automatic watering. Lamps for lightening purpose can also be added since it can produce electricity. These features surely will be noteworthy in the near future of ecology.
