Eco Bath System by Jang Wooseok

Designer Jang Wooseok invented this Eco bath system. Eco Bath is a dual water-tank designed primarily to recycle water rolling down from a washbasin. It is composed of two key parts including a left part having recycled water, while the right part comprises of tap waster. It looks just like a regular water-tank when looked outwardly, except for 2 levers plus a single LED. The LED turns green when the left part is filled withrecycled water so that the user can pull the lever to use the recycled water and flush the toilet. On the other hand, the LED turns red, indicating it is not full yet. Thus the user can pull the lever to make use of tap water for flushing the toilet. (via)

ECO car combines retro design with modern technology for a comfy ride

Combining the old traditions of Laurin and Klement, a pre-war Czech company, with modern technology and system, designer Petr Novague has come up with a car concept that apart from presenting retro design also helps in sustaining the ecology. Hailed as “ECO,” the concept car features tube car frame, half-hood body and carbon components, which makes it a lightweight and energy efficient vehicle. Running on four narrow wheels, powered by built-in electric motors, the ECO car promises a sustainable ride in utmost comfort. Locating the batteries under the tilting front lid, which also works as door, the ecological automobile presents an effective operating range of 500 km per charge.

Attaching the lattice truss frame, made in chromium-molybdenum steel, to the carbon frame with inside honeycomb upfront, the retro-futuristic car also touts electronic drive-line (4 x 4) with stabilization system, which reduces the weight of mechanical connections by a huge margin. Moreover, the ECO car can change it ground clearance, thanks to the double-wishbone axel disposes of the push rod suspension, uniball endings and impact dampers, according to the road or terrain.
