Add a little whimsy to your afternoon caffeine fix with Tea Diver from Seoul-based Abel Partners Design Studio.

Instead of using the metal ball on a chain that you’re used to, load your tea (you are using loose leaf, right?) into this cute strainer in the shape of a diver. It’s made of harmless silicone and can withstand the complete temperature range you’ll be using to brew, whether that’s green at 170F or black at 212F. The shape is based on a traditional Korean diver, and the string perfectly mimics the oxygen tank the Meoguri rely on. So go on, dive right in!

Lookie here! A bike path in Seoul that plays music as people ride over it. The path is made of planks of wood of varying lengths that trigger little hammers when people ride over them, creating little percussive notes. Happy fun place yay!

Jinyoung Yoon studied photography at Arizona State University and is now based in Seoul. Of this project, she says, ‘I seek what is at the boundary of grotesque and beautiful. The ambiguous feeling that is both repulsive and attractive at the same time reminds me of the predicament we face in everyday life, including the relationships we get involved in’.

Korean architects, Mass Studies, have attacked the idea of housing typology in this project for a Seoul Commune in the year 2026. The buildings are comprised of public and private cells; technology is harnessed to make the private cells more private and the public cells more public. From your private cell, you can monitor the goings on in the public cells. The outer skin of the towers utilise a geo-textile material supported by a hexagonal lattice structure that creates a habitat for vegetational growth. An automatic irrigation and vaporization system further enhances cooling for natural ventilation in summer.
