Sony Playstation style Jean Nouvel faucet taps, what next gamers?

Sony Playstation is popular but Sony Playstation style Jean Nouvel faucet taps what next? Is the way of home living turning towards the gaming lifestyle?

These PlayStation-themed faucets which you can clearly see the Sony PlayStation symbols on the top look pretty cool, but one thing you must have noticed is that the square button symbol is missing.

So we believe that it was not actually designed with Sony’s game controller in mind but hey good to think it was. These Jean Nouvel faucets will now give you water with digital in mind.

The O will turn the water on, the X turns the water off, and the triangle will sort the temperature out. We do not know what the price is but we are guessing a whole lot more than the PS3.

The Single Person Cooker

Cooking for one is never usually enjoyable, unless you’re using a Single Person Cooker. Designer Alex Bradley has developed a prototype for a compact cooker that combines a chopping board, utensils, and a Wi-Fi-enabled screen which allows users to look up recipies on the internet!

Bradley has said that he intends to promote Single Person Cooker as a way to let bachelors and those living alone prepare healthier meals. To some, it may seem like if you’ve got one of these you’ve totally given up on finding love. The Daily Mail Ideal Home Show obviously didn’t as they made the design one of the 31 finalists in their Concept Products competition.
