Made from hoop pine plywood, steel, lamp holder, energy saving bulb and wire, nautilus is an elegant hanging lamp with a shell like design. Designed by and eco-lover Rebecca Asquith, nautilus produces a soft pattern in surrounding areas when it is switched on. With a dimension of 360mm H, 300mm W, and 350mm D, the nautilus packs flat and is very handy that makes it easy to ship, and the lamp can be assembled in minutes. It is nice to hear that a shell shape that remains unchanged can play an important role when designing and evolving our homes into a better one.

Discover this green portable toilet from Vyasateja Rao. Eco Toilet is created to provide a clean and portable sanitation solution to the people in various refugee camps. The bowl is made of roto-molded biodegradable plastic and ceramic, and is designed to make the user feel clean and comfortable. The reason behind this is that, when somebody feels like relieving themselves, they just have to pick up the attached bag with some powder in it and place it on the bowl. When the waste already had contact with the powder, it turns into odorless sanitary blue crystals. This is truly an amazing idea that will surely be the answer of today’s problem on waste disposal in some areas.

Designer Maja Ganszyniec has designed the Plugless Sink, which is being inspired by the bowls in the past. In addition to that, it also allows its users to use the sink in a more economical and traditional way. This unique plugless sink allows us to see the amount of water we use everyday and eventually save. With its cute and elegant design, this sink will surely be a hit in every household. Since it is detachable, it allows users to transfer the sink whenever and wherever they wanted to. I also found this sink perfect in every food chain or restaurant for the use of their clients in washing their hands, but quite impractical.
