If you are a fan of country music, you would know about Brooks & Dunn and you might have well appreciated their 20 year partnership which is soon going to end in 2010. They were sponsored for about 3 years by Tundra and Toyota teamed up with B.A.D. Company in order to build the Midnight Rider Tundra Tailgater.
The truck is an ode to country lifestyle, rodeos and the amazing music that the genre has given to people. It even comes with a Grill N Chill so that you could just pull out and cook. The beverage tap makes sure you get your share of beer enough. The ice chest and the infrared barbecue make your trucking experience a complete country experience.

When it is summer it is common to see people using a lot of ACs in order to keep themselves cool. While doing so, they may realize that they are running up huge bills of electricity and also leaving a huge carbon print behind them.
Thus, the Briz Solar powered Air-Conditioner uses water as a coolant and the water mist is used to humidify and cool the room in an easy and natural method. However, unfortunately for designers Nari Kim and Pullip Lim, the water based air conditioners are used widely in New Delhi already. Most people who cannot afford to use electrical air conditioners get a water based air conditioner.

The Mustang is an all American car that has been made famous by Ford. The car almost represents the automobile culture of the people from the other side of the Atlantic. It is known for its compact nature and the speed which it delivers.
Even after many decades of its launch, people are still designing cars that resemble the Mustang in some way or the other. Here is a cool and luxurious conceptual car by Mustang-experts over at Saleen. The S281 comes with an amazing body and the deep red colour only makes it irresistible. If you were to take on the highways with a car that is definitively powerful yet compact, you would choose this amazing S281 Mustang.

If you were looking for a cool concept car, look no further. I just came across this wonderful and almost futuristic TVR Artemis which has been designed by Niels Van Roij. It is named after the Greek goddess of Hunting and the car’s body is made of high quality engineering while a down force is given thanks to the under hood spoiler system.
The very same system also helps to cool down the car. The car is extremely lightweight and the slits on the body of the car are illuminated by LEDs at night. This allows approaching cars to identify the Artemis from a distance and save the occupants from disastrous car crashes.

What could be better than working in a closed space without any disturbance? Well, I guess it has to be getting one of these egg-like environments which completely enclose you in a cubicle and make sure you are not distracted from any noise or even any sort of view.
Copenhagen-based design team GamFratesi has designed a really sleek and beautiful dinosaur egg like work environment for those who have problems concentrating on work. It comes with enough space to keep your desktop, a telephone and a few books and work unhindered in a really sleek area. However, if you are claustrophobic and do not like the idea of being enclosed in such a tiny space, you may not like the “Rewrite“.

San Diego is one of the largest metropolitan areas in the US with about 3 million people living in the vicinity. However, the city lacks a large airport and the present airport is a small stretch of dangerous runway which handles too many flights than it can handle.
There is also no space for the city to have a second airport. Thus, the nearby Pacific Ocean expanse is the only area where an airport could be built, like they did in Hong Kong. However, the Pacific is too deep for rocks and boulders to be sunk and an airport built over it.

There is nothing better than a hot cup of coffee to soothe your nerves and improve your mood, and especially if you have a luxurious coffee machine, you would definitely want to drink more of that wonderful cup of coffee. Philips has launched an opulent coffee machine called the Senseo Limited Edition which has been dsigned Marcel Wanders.
The Senseo Limited Edition almost looks bejewelled and the idea of having such a contemporary design in the kitchen is a very appealing idea. The Senseo Limited Edition comes in red and black and only 50,000 copies would be made available in France. Each of these coffee makers cost 120 Euros, and I must say that since it is a luxury product, it certainly is worth that much.
