A Carry-On Made for Audi Owners

Originally, the Arlo Skye and Audi luggage collaboration was only available to members of Audi's Premier Benefits program. But, starting today, the Carry-On is available for purchase on the Arlo Skye website. It comes in a low-gloss black finish on an anodized aluminum alloy body that's more than twice as…

A Documentary About International Barbecue Culture

We don't think it's a stretch to say there's no better food than well barbecued meat. Someone taking the time to cook pork or beef or chicken to perfect succulent smoked deliciousness is an amazing culinary gift. That's the topic Barbecue explores, except this documentary blows the scale out to examine…

The Struggle and Success of Making a New Irish Whiskey

It’s been a long time since the reputation of Irish whiskey carried any kind of weight beyond that of a few big names. Jameson and Bushmills seem to have a stranglehold on the industry and while it’s true we’ve had a few new names pop up here and there, a…

Pong is Being Rereleased Inside a Full-Size Coffee Table

Pretty much everyone has a coffee table in their house and pretty much everyone loves Pong, so a group of Uruguayan engineers have taken advantage of that overlap.  They've brought Pong into the physical world, removing it from its previous pixelated build and building a physical, playable version into a…

Samsung’s New Frame TV Blends into Any Art Gallery

Samsung's newest line of televisions is focusing primarily on design, and no where is this better seen than with The Frame. It's a Samsung TV when on, but switches to a high-res picture frame when "Art Mode" is selected. In Art Mode, the user can choose between 100 images in…

Forget Corned Beef and Cabbage; Eat This on St. Patrick’s Day

Without fail, St. Patrick’s Day brings dozens of Debbie Downers out of the woodwork to tell you all about how corned beef and cabbage isn’t traditionally Irish and it’s inaccurate to have as dinner’s centerpiece. And while our title can certainly be interpreted that way, we’d like to aim this…

These Glasses Have a Tiny Camel’s Peak at the Bottom

No doubt you're familiar with our Matterhorn Glasses. They're one of our better sellers; unique without destroying the reliable shape of a whiskey glass (because glass technology has come about as far as it needs to). Other companies seem to have picked up on the success of the glass though, and…

Edgar Wright is Finally Back with ‘Baby Driver’

There's been a bit of a lull in Edgar Wright's career since his ill-fated but apparently glorious Ant-Man script. The last movie he made was The World's End back in 2013 when he closed out his Cornetto Trilogy. Four years later and he's finally reemerged with Baby Driver, a movie about a young…

The Lindlund Ruler Helps Translate Physical Drawings to Digital Ones

Today's graphic designers have a unique challenge facing them. If they've done most of their work on a physical medium, eventually they're going to have to digitize it. But since digital displays use different measurements than what the designer was probably using on paper, moving work over quickly becomes a…

Bentley EXP 12 Speed 6e

Electric cars have been building some serious momentum lately and they just got a huge boost from Bentley. Their much loved EXP 10 Speed 6 coupe concept was updated to become the EXP 12 Speed 6e, a fully electric car befitting the Bentley name. If all we had was a glance,…

Metal Skull Microphones

In this age of podcasting, everyone should have access to a high quality microphone. Not only that, but it should be something customized to recorder's tastes. If those tastes are the straightforward microphones we've been using forever, that's fine. But also know you could be podcasting into the back of…

The Man Who Makes the World’s Most Incredible Mazes

In every activity book and diner placemat we had as kids, we always flipped right to the mazes. They were easily our favorite parts, difficult enough that we were legitimately challenged but rewarding enough that we never felt cheated. It's unlikely that Adrian Fisher designed those paper mazes, but when…
