A prototype of the bike was on display last week at the Canton Fair in China. From China comes this bike that can transform itself into a suitcase. This makes it much easier to transport around both walking and on the bus. There was some doubt whether this bike would actually be produced. The prices will probably be $399 USD.

Ceramic Art by Hayashi Shigeki

Posted by toxit at 8:10 PM 0 comments

Japanese artist Hayashi Shigeki takes ceramic art to the next level by applied traditional method to modern works of art.





“Hayashi Shigeki, from Tajimi City, draws inspiration for his ceramic figures from images from science fiction, animated film and Japanese comic books known as manga, all of which have attracted him since he was a child. He comes from a region of Japan famous for the production of porcelain domestic ware.” Via Keiko Gallery/Crazytoyz.



We love his work and cannot wait to see it live in the near future. Have a look at more works of Hayashi Shigeki after the jump.
