The Hammock Bathtub

Splinter Works may have created the ultimate way to relax with Vessel, a new and elegant take on the modern bathtub. The design resembles the imagery of a hammock, and is constructed out of carbon fiber for its strength and ability to form complex curves. Floating off of the ground, Vessel is attached to the walls by two stainless steel brackets that can be covered or left bare and is filled by a sleek floor standing tap. As for drainage, there is a a built in water release at the base of the design, though a down pipe drain can also be installed if needed. Measuring nearly 9-feet in length, this sculptural tub also comes in a variety of colors such as red, blue, yellow, pink, bronze and pure silver, as well as different custom sizes to best suit the buyers personal preferences.

World's Largest Picnic Blanket

In Switzerland Patrik and Frank Riklin put together a massive picnic blanket design that spans across a huge series of green hills. The installation, known as BIGNIK thanks to it's enormous size, is one of the largest picnic blankets ever made in the world. 

The Riklin brothers replicated the checked red and white pattern of a traditional picnic blanket by sticking together 15-feet by 15-feet large squares of red and white material from towels, curtains and blankets with Velcro. The brothers began collecting the materials back in 2012 and to-date have created the largest known picnic blanket for visitors to enjoy having a meal on. Over 1,500 people have come to visit and eat on the BIGNIK blanket.

For Your Bathroom?

Designed by Oliver Beckert, the Aquariass is an $1,100 aquarium that works with real live fish that you can add on to your toilet. The aquarium doesn't actually share a tank with the toilet, but you can guarantee there will be at least one visitor to your home who will be afraid to flush for fear of killing all the poor fish inside.

A Clock That Knits A Scarf Per Year

Every passing of a half hour is marked by the knitting of a stitch, a full day is measured by a full circle around the clock and a year results in a two metre long scarf. After one year the wool has to be replaced and a new year can be knitted. The year that has past is this year’s scarf. And the coming year is the wool unknitted. - Siren Elise Wilhelmsen
