I have been a HUGE fan of Yanko Design's website for quite some time. Although the vast majority of the products proffered by Yanko are waaaaay out of my econmical reach, the designs themselves are unique without being overly trendy.
Believe it or not, that trait has grown difficult to come by as of late. It seems like designers and designees are growing more and more preoccupied with form over function. Every now and then, however, something comes along and slaps me in my face. A function so obvious, you wonder why it wasn't thought of sooner.
