james bond villain watches by swatch

swatch is well-known for their funky watch designs, some of which are based on popular films or specific themes. the company’s latest collection of watches draws inspiration from the james bond villains. the twenty-two watches are each designed to reflect the personality and style of one or more evil characters from some of the most well-known james bond films. because the series only features villains, bond himself is not represented but the eclectic assortment of villains more than makes up for it.

clothes-hanger

The "Lean-On" self-standing closet rod, designed by Peter Van de Water for Cascando, seems like the perfect closet solution if you
a) move a lot, b) don't feel like hauling that heavy MDF Ikea wardrobe around, and c) only own five or six articles of clothing that require hanging.

Sling-Backpack


KATA is a company that makes products in the Military-Security, Video-Photo, and Hi-Tech categories, and their background is rather interesting:
Nitzan Kimchi and Dror Tishler, founders and owners of KATA, became acquainted with sophisticated military equipment during their service in an elite combat unit of the Israel Defense Forces.
We're digging KATA's keenly-designed 3N1-20 Sling Bag for photography gear, especially because the designers paid as much attention to how the bag would be worn and accessed .
The 3N1-20 is currently selling in the (low!) $99 range, and if you'd like to read a review of it, Cameratown.com puts it through the paces here.
