I'm in love with Project H

Project H is a non-profit design group that designs products for the other 90% of the world that doesn't have the basic necessities. I-pods are great, but there has to more to the world of design than the next cool gadget. This is the kind of design that makes me remember why I got into industrial design. :-)

Product design initiatives for Humanity, Habitats, Health, and Happiness.

Project H Design connects the power of design to the people who need it most, and the places where it can make a real and lasting difference.
We are a team of designers and builders engaging locally to improve the quality of life for the socially overlooked. Our five-tenet design process (There is no design without (critical) action; We design WITH, not FOR; We document, share and measure; We start locally and scale globally, We design systems, not stuff) results in simple and effective design solutions for those without access to creative capital.

WE BELIEVE DESIGN CAN CHANGE THE WORLD.


Their most famous project is the Hippo Roller for transporting water... So simple and so necessary!

See original post here 

"Freeway & Jake One are releasing an album called Stimulus Package and the packaging for the album is very creative. I'm sure there might be a couple of people who buy this album just for it's packaging. Whoever designed this definitely gets mad props for the design and it's being called the CD Packaging Of The Year if that's a real award to kinda have. Anyway check out the packaging below. Skip to the 1:10 mark to get pass all the build up and see the actual packaging."
