“This toaster by Sasha Tseng incorporates a little message board where one can read quick notes. The message also gets “toasted” into the toast itself so it gives new meaning to “read while you eat”.”

While the object fetishism of this era has somewhat eroded this statement’s validity, I often find myself repeating the design-school mantra drummed into my head: “People don’t want toasters. What they want is toast.
Bullshit, I want toasters.

Meant to post this already… this is an alternative take on the Green Machine opener I posted about bit earlier. It didn’t fly with the AD although I rather liked it. It’s all good though, as now I’ve turned it into a poster. Get one for your daily grind. All bow down before the Mighty Toaster!
The “lean” plate by designer Jon Liow:
As a child, I remember being taught how to lean freshly toasted slices of bread against each together, in order to aerate the hot slices and allow them to become crispy. This going against the common practice of throwing them flat onto a plate, resulting in cold, soggy slices of bread.
Anyone who has caught on to this practice knows how hard it can sometimes be to stand two slices of toast up on the slippery surface of a clean plate.
The ‘lean’ dish is designed with this simple function in mind. Two subtle ridges are raised just high enough, and spaced just far enough apart, to support a varying range of bread slice sizes. It also works as a fully functional and ergonomic plate. Here’s to crispy toast.
