Quick and mostly irrelevant thoughts from a brand consultant, author, magazine publisher, and typeface designer.

We bet you have never seen a pizza cutter as fun and quirky as the one we are featuring today. The Fixie Pizza Cutter is a colourful depature from the usual, round, cold, stainless steel cutters. This cutter is named after the iconic Fixie bicycle and has two double sharp cut discs in the shape of bicycle wheels. It even has a mini-steering handlebar and a saddle.

Making the cut I have to say this is very cute.

This is the Volkswagen Aqua. It is an exclusive concept vehicle that is the brainchild of 21 year old Chinese designer Yuhan Zhang. The idea was to create a new class of vehicle that can cope with a variety of terrain. Capable of being driven on roads as well as on rivers and coastal waters. Even snow and ice can be traversed.
The first hovercraft was developed in 1915, but it was not adopted seriously until the 1950’s. The first passenger hovercraft was built in 1958, and the US miliitary was able to use attack hovercraft to devastating effect in marsh warfare during the Vietnam war.
Whether this stunning concept will ever be put into production by VW who are more known for their iconic vans and family cars than futuristic amphibious craft is uncertain. If they do it is sure to go to the top of the wish list of toys. Here is a picture of the craft emerging from the sea - this would clearly be the best way to arrive at the beach!

Seaspeed Looks awesome to me, and it wasn’t that long ago that people were touting the hovercraft as the transportation mode of the future.

This was meant to represent the future You can imagine that if Nissan wanted to do a retro-Bluebird, in the way Toyota has done its FJ Cruiser, or Chevrolet its Camaro, it might wind up looking like the ESV of 1973. It looks like a sharpened version of the then-current Nissan Bluebird U (160B and 180B on export), on which running gear it was based, and, strangely enough, doesn’t look that out of place today had it been an early-2000s retro design.
