Mini Pump
Bicycle Pump
This patented tube-in-tube pumping system guarantees maximum air volume with every stroke. To deliver the same air volume per stroke when pumping up a tyre, conventional pumps generally require twice the length. Thanks to a patented two-stage technology, the Alloy Mini Pump provides either high air volume or, alternatively, high pressure and is thus appropriate for all kinds of pumping needs. Stronger users may select the “high volume” mode to reach higher pressure faster, while users with less strength might switch to the “high pressure” mode when the pumping becomes too strenuous. And finally, high flexibility is provided by the auto-switching Schrader/Presta valve system: no more tiresome changing of valve caps and searching for rubber grommets or missing parts.

Cocodice – Corner Contact Game System
Dice Game
Cocodice, short for Corner Contact Dice, is a game for both large and small children aged five and up. It poses different challenges for each age group: for younger children, Cocodice is a spatial game, training depth perception and sense of touch, while for older children it presents combinatory, mathematical and geometric tasks that are fun and also encourage logical thinking. Integrated magnets ensure that the individual dice hold together and can be interlinked, with black holding to white and white to black. Connections are thus created that do without mechanics while arousing curiosity. Cocodice furthermore represents a reinterpretation of traditional games like Domino, Jenga and the legendary Rubik’s Cube. Markings that can be felt with fingers allow even blind people to play with Cocodice – added value that fosters respect for one another within society.

Econe
Ceiling and Pendant Luminaires
In the complex teachings of Feng Shui, Chi describes life’s invisible energy source. This energy flows through our surroundings, as well as through every living being and through every cell.

The two light systems join together, like in a duet, and create a harmonious atmosphere. The optical light sources used in Econe are designed to be glare-free. This makes them, as well as their soft reflections and subtle shadows, impressive in any room. Econe is versatile and can be used in a number of different ways. The pendant lamp, for example, has a steel cable suspension which can be extended to three metres. This ceiling and pendant lighting system was primarily designed for commercial and office use. It opens up new horizons for a pleasant work environment and makes it possible to create exciting effects in a building.

Geograph
Wristwatch
The Geograph is tailor-made for modern-day adventurers. Atlas motifs are engraved into the pushers, alluding to the chronograph’s themes of travel and discovery. A second time zone is indicated by a hand, its wave-shaped contour reflecting the Côtes du Jura motif on the dial. On a 24-hour circle, a moon against a dark background represents the night, a sun in front of a light background the day. Catching the eye on the back of the watch is a sextant-shaped rotor, which is framed by further engraved symbols. A map and a sailing ship pay tribute to the seafarer James Cook, while a hot air balloon floating against a night sky is reminiscent of the Montgolfier brothers.

MAM Perfect
Pacifier for Babies
The MAM Perfect has been developed in close cooperation with orthodontists and paediatric dentists. These experts agree that the thinner and softer the teat neck of a pacifier, the less pressure is exerted on the baby’s jaw and teeth. This in turn reduces the risk of malocclusions. Taking this scientific research into account, the newly developed Dento-Flex teat neck is about 60 per cent thinner and nearly three times softer (on average 53 to 78 per cent thinner / 1.50 to 5.33 times softer than regular silicone soothers) than comparable soothers. Moreover, the shape of the “shield” was adapted to create an ideal fit for a baby’s face. Generous air holes guarantee maximum comfort and provide optimal ventilation to the skin.

Bering -3°
Sleeping Bag
The design challenge of the new Bering sleeping bag was to improve its insulating properties and breathability without having a negative impact on weight and pack size. The integrated Black Yarn technology, which encapsulates micro-fine carbon particles in a synthetic nylon fibre, makes it possible not only to charge the fabric with heat when exposed to sunlight, which it later emits again, but also to create a much stronger insulation. The Thermo Dry Soft filling guarantees that moisture is efficiently transported away, creating a comfortable climate for sleeping without heat accumulation.

KFN 91 PJ 10 N EU | 26 FT 70 SNS US
Fridge-Freezer Combination
Conscious living and fresh food are two of the most vital ingredients of the current zeitgeist, says American author Michael Pollan. In his latest book titled “In Defense of Food” he defines the basic rules for a healthy diet, advising his readers to eat fresh food at least twice a day and ideally food grown in one’s own garden. With its sophisticated functionality, this fridge-freezer combination responds to these demands, complementing them with a high degree of convenience and understatement. At the heart of this “freshness centre” lies innovative technology that aims to keep vegetables, fruit, fish and even meat fresh up to three times longer. The inside of the fridge-freezer combination presents its content almost as if inspired by the daily changing offers of foodstuff in supermarket shelves: the generously designed double doors open in a flowing movement and provide both easy access and a clear view of stored contents at eye-level. The interior can be arranged flexibly with glass shelves at different heights to meet individual user needs; metal applications on the shelves and racks lend them the look of food storage boxes. Another highly consistent design aspect of this appliance concept, alongside convenience and functionality, is its light concept: flush mounted LED lights provide pleasant glare-free illumination – the foodstuffs in the refrigerator are presented as objects for enjoyment.

Gaudi PAR 30 LED Lamp
Lighting and lamps
The organic form of this LED lamp with its soft contours that are reminiscent of flowing light emotionally and effectively conveys the ability to dissipate the heat that develops during use without requiring a lamellar heat sink. The heat sink’s wave-shaped design, in particular, signals high functional efficiency, because it maximises the surface area for heat dissipation. Furthermore, after its installation the lamp also offers the option of precisely adjusting or changing the angle and the direction of the beam by turning or moving the front lens. This enables more precise and optimal lighting since the switch from spotlight to wall wash function does not occur in the luminaire but directly in the lamp.

When outside lighting is too strong, the camera is protected by a hood that automatically adjusts its angle according to the light direction, controlling the amount of light that hits the sensor.

Carlo Pazolini Milan
Shop Design
“We shape our clothing and it shapes us.” This statement, with its many levels of meaning, is the philosophy behind the Carlo Pazolini Flagship Stores. Situated in the Italian city of Milan, the shop presents exclusive shoes and accessories on 386 square metres of floor space. The shape of an infant’s foot is an ever-present icon in the store’s design concept, appearing in the form of the displays as well as in the design of the seating. The adaptability of an infant foot’s network of bones and tendons also serves as a model for the display “cell” network. Seen in this way, the cell becomes a metaphor for growth and adaptation, highlighting the way footwear helps form the human foot over time. In a variety of colours, this language creates a binding visual “network”. The fluid arrangement of these cell-like elements throughout the store permits a simultaneous homogeneity and heterogeneity. This “fluid network” is based on the representation of “swarm intelligence” as displayed by fish or insects. Following a certain algorithm, systems such as schools of fish always arrange themselves in a particular pattern. However, the cellular structures that are part of the design concept of the store should not be thought of as static, but rather as a model for continuous flow. Individual cell structures are repeatedly recreated and establish an ambiguous link between an object and the space around it, much like the ambiguous distinction between our bodies, the things we wear, and the buildings and cities we inhabit.

Urban design and public spaces
The building is located on hills in an area with beautiful mountain views. The overall design concept was inspired by the structure of the mountain landscape. By breaking with traditional architectural ideas and redefining the notion of beauty in architecture, this project aims to awaken divergent associations in the eye of the beholder. To achieve this, the traditional construction methods had to be changed and it was necessary to develop a complex new wall structure.

DTX950K
Electronic Drum
Compared with acoustic drums, today’s conventional electronic drum sets may feature a softer sound and volume control, yet the irritating noise made when the drum pads are hit remains. This problem was solved by means of the innovative “Textured Cellular Silicone Head”, whereby small air bubbles are embedded below the drumhead to serve as a kind of cushion. The resulting playing feel is nearly authentic and was fine-tuned with the help of professional drummers.
