macworld for design divas

yesterday, i ventured down the street to the macworld conference with jendita (congrats on your new career adventures, j!), to see what there was to see. i can sometimes be a semi-techie geek, but going to this conference proved that i'm a much bigger design geek. below are photos j was kind enough to take for me since i (silly girl) forgot my cam. i was pleasantly surprised at the incredible design-girl finds that macworld offered.

(these 3 gorgeous b&w patterns are from the belkin "house"/booth. the 1st one is the massive 2-story canvas walls they constrcuted on the outer-most layer. the birdies & fleurs are inner walls. beauty swoons from a high-tech products & gadgets company ~ yes)

(the enook is a great design concept ~ it's an all in one, wall-mounted office unit. several finishes to choose from for the case, the back fabric wall/bulletinboard, and the shelves. one photo shows an empty example at their booth, the other is a filled-up unit from their website. functionality, efficiency, and good looks all in one.)

(we waited many minutes for this image to come back on the monitor so we could get a photo of it. the new super-intense color technology from nec is fantastic)

(2 paper lantern-esque, wavy floor lamps add some design dimensions to the macworld floor)

(floating underwater cameras - they're seen here inside a fish tank)

oh, and of course:

the iphone. slowly spinning on its proud pedestal.
