Ooh, this is great. In response to the way everyone taps away on their phones even when they’re in human company, designers Chelsea Briganti, Leigh Ann Tucker and Ingrid Zweifel from Manhattan-based studio The Way We See the World have introduced Blokket, a pouch thoughtfully made from a silver and nylon material that blocks cellular signals once you slip your cellphone in.

There are two options to choose from, but we think the one that says ‘Goodbye Phone, Hello World’ has a really nice ring to it.

Wow, Robie Rogge and Joe Shouldice designed a notebook-and-pencil set for MoMA that cleverly skips around the usual pencil-tucked-in-spine feature and hides the pencil right in the cover of the notebook itself. We’re in favor.

Guy, this is probably the closest thing you’ll find to a Batman utility belt. The Speakeasy Briefs — an invention dreamt up by best buds Jeff Schneider and Dan Goldman— are underpants that come with a private pocket for carrying whatever you can tuck inside. That includes a flask. That’s right — if you pledge $29 towards their Kickstarter fund, you’ll get to snare a pair of Speakeasy Briefs and a flask and (to quote these guys) “bring the party to your pecker”.

Man Crates claims to deliver only bragworthy gifts for men, which means no ugly neckties, socks or aftershave. Literally packed in manly crates too (no frilly ribbons or wrapping paper), these gifts are themed according to what kind of man he is: carnivore, survivalist, beer lover, snack enthusiast, gamer or athlete. The Grill Master Crate, for instance, comes with a cast-iron smoker box, hickory wood chips, steak thermometers and a brass-knuckle meat tenderizer. Pretty impressive stuff.

Do you have a colleague at work or school who just drives you batty? Get revenge on them the smart way. This clever little device will haunt their office or dorm room without leaving a trace. It’s a tiny little magnetic thing that will stick to any metal surface and emit unsettling creaking noises, scratching sounds, gasping breaths, and eerie whispering every six minutes. Seriously, this is the best idea since sliced bread. And it’s only 17 bucks.

Hong Kong-based designers David Koo and Zheng Yawei came up with this astonishing concept design for a couch that we can only dream about for now. Yes, it’s a levitating couch that makes use of magnetic force from the bottom base to stay afloat. And it looks like a cloud.

Their design nabbed an honourable mention in Yanko Design’s RELAX 2009 competition. If this isn’t magical, we don’t know what is. This. Needs. To. Be. Real. Now.

The first and only magazine that consists entirely of stickers has just put out its fifth edition. This time it’s hosted by the infamous LODOWN MAGAZINE. According to the press release, there was no preconceived plan, no theme in mind. But what stood out was still a high degree of skulls, satanic stuff and sex. So order it before it’s too late!

My relationship with Klebstoff? For issue #4, I contributed the sticker Live fast die young. The proof that only the most disturbing designs are selected for this magazine? Either way, this is a magazine that literally does not let go.

Tom Haney produces animatronic figurines that gesticulate on their own; the creation, of which, requires an unique assortment of skills like sculpting, carpentry, and mechanical prowess. Although some see his work as a reaction to today’s throwaway society, he sees it as a way to reconnect with the past. ‘I cherish traditions, not trends. I love the old ways of doing things, old tools and traditional techniques.’ He says working with one’s hands still has value and while there is a rich tradition of these mechanisms, it is soon becoming a lost art in the wake of the digital age. I hear that.

The smaller the block, the better the detail. This is the very true catchphrase of Japanese invention Nanoblock, a range of puzzles which are pretty much the most fun you can have at your office desk without getting fired. Yes, the small and challenging building blocks will satisfy anyone who is a child at heart or loves a challenge during their coffee break. The best bit is the number of different creations that can be made: deer, frogs, electric guitars and even the Taj Mahal. They’re so addictive I could cover my desk in them. Lucky they are fairly inexpensive. I don’t want to go broke. [Follow me on Twitter @cormy96]

These YAKKAY bike helmets look nothing like the bike helmets we’re used to seeing. Well, okay, they’re really in disguise. You can stick to the basic bicycle helmet that does indeed look like an actual bicycle helmet. But you can also move on to the next stage to disguise that bike helmet with a fabric cover that transforms your helmet into, say, a checkered hat or truck cap immediately.
