World Cup Game Schedule
A brilliant calendar design that features all of the information you could have wanted about the World Cup. Its beautiful design ethic combined with its intuitive layout makes for a great user experience. I particularly like the circular design used here for the final 16.

UN01 iPhone Photography Kit
An interesting concept for an iPhone 4 case that mimics the shape of a point and shoot camera. Its intention is to change the way you interact with your iPhone, a fascinating idea. I particularly like the design of the white case but find the addition of straps a little clumsy.

Arnsdorf
Here we have a crystal-inspired pop-up invitation and an intricately folded poster look book for a women's wear collection by Jade Sarita Arnott. The use of unique paper design immediately changes the way we interact with the material. The way the poster look book unfolds causes the recipient to engage rather than switch off.

Orishiki (Clutch bag)
A fascinating design for a clutch bag. It's made from a single piece of two dimensional structure, constructed of triangular segments which can be folded like origami. The concept is intriguing, although it remains to be seen whether it can take off as a fashion item.

Touch CDJ Pro
An awesome interface for Touch CDJ Pro on the iPad. It's sleek, stylish, and makes great use of a plethora of buttons and switches. The attention to detail here helps to make this App stand out, I particularly like the feel of the buttons that light as you switch them.

iTM Tilt
A gorgeous and futuristic looking App for the iPhone that gives you spacial control over your audio system. I love the raised feeling of the buttons and satisfying use of the touch interface. The colour scheme works brilliantly with the futuristic feel of the App.

Moshi*Matic
An absolutely fascinating design for a washing machine that's controlled by a computer running on Android. The overall design is incredibly futuristic and edgy, but I love it! The use of coloured sections and detailing looks just great, while the Android panel and remote control concept is really interesting.

Pinco Doce Interactive Catalogue
A brilliant interactive catalogue for a supermarket. The touchscreen layout is intuitive and makes great use of colour to differentiate between different sections of the supermarket. I'd love to play with it and see what the animation effects are like. The weighting and dynamics of the appearing categories could make or break this design.

Nike+ Sport Band
A absolutely stunning concept for a sports band that integrates with the Nike+ system. I love the colour and variety in the other potential designs, although the orange and black one does it for me! The incorporation of the USB memory is an ingenious idea that purely enhances the user experience.

Chomp
Chomp is a fascinating, and compact, sandwich maker and grill. Thanks to an innovative pressing mechanism, it automatically adjusts to sandwiches of varied thicknesses. It allows preparation of sandwiches, toast, waffles, fried eggs, grilled meat, and is operated through a touchscreen display!

Bubble Calendar
A fascinating, and fun, approach to a item that many of us use on a daily basis! I love the concept of a calendar that's printed on bubble wrap, and while it's really only for keeping track of the days it would be a great way to start each day. It's worth bearing in mind that this is the size of a large wall poster...

the works of Roel Wouters
A fascinating approach to site navigation that aims to engage users through its unique and disjointed layout. I like the odd design of this site and its quirky appeal. Making a site intentionally unintuitive can sometimes work to further engage visitors, a portfolio site like this is the perfect candidate for such an experiment.

iwearyourshirt Calendar
Besides from being a fascinating idea for a site in itself, iwearyourshirt also has an interesting calendar interface that allows you to see which shirts will be worn on which days. I like that each day is greyed out until you scroll over it and how easy it is to see when there are days available for sale.

Bar-T Calendar
A simple but pretty approach to a calendar. I like the blue painted design and attention to detail. The rounded boxes and use of typeface really makes this calendar.

Rabbit Recipe Card
This is a recipe card with a difference. The design and recipe is subtly engraved into the card making for an incredibly tactile experience. It's a little hard to read but totally worth it for the design impact.

Calendar Made Of Matches
A wonderfully ingenious calendar design for an energy company. Each month is made from a comb of matches! It perfectly captures the idea of energy, and would make each day feel like a significant event.

Typoclock #1
An absolutely stunning clock interface for the iPhone. I love the bold use of black and white and the unique design ideas implemented here. The designer clearly has a keen eye for typography!

Alex Buga's Livingroom
While this is of course a web design, it fits perfectly into the category of interface design due to its beautifully tactile user interface. I love the draggable menus, switches, and buttons, they really make this a fun place to be. While many sites could become frustrating with this amount of user interaction, a designer's personal portfolio is the perfect place to try out wacky user interface ideas.

Motorola Sparrow
A brilliant concept that aims to provide retail stores with a mobile point of sale device. I love the simple touchscreen idea and perceived compact size of the device. The idea that it would clip onto your pocket or shirt and allows sales to be made from anywhere could revolutionise the way we shop.
