Porsche Sportster Sled

Filed under: Children

If you have kids in your family then having a few sleds in the garage to keep them occupied on snow days and over Christmas vacation is a necessity, and getting this Sportster sled from Porsche Design would be a real treat I'm sure. Built for speed, the minimalistic design is also quite strong and can hold up to 100kg (or about 220 lbs) which means even dad can go for a ride (and show the kids how it's done!). It also folds up for convenience, when all the fun is over. $490

Porsche to Design New Luxury Yachts

by Jared Paul Stern (RSS feed) —

Filed under: Yachts & Sailing

Porsche Design is teaming up with Singapore-based yacht concern Royal Falcon Fleet on a new line of luxury catamarans and megayachts. The companies' initial collaborative project will be a high-tech 135-ft. motor catamaran, dubbed the RFF135 (above), to be sold under the Royal Falcon Fleet brand. Porsche Design will design both the exterior hull and the interior of the megayacht, which is expected to do 35 knots and retail in the millions. Royal Falcon Fleet, which dubs its craft "the ultimate in billionaire boys' toys," has engaged cutting edge Swedish-based marine engineering firm Kockums and Australian catamaran builder Incat Crowther for the project's naval architecture needs. No word yet on a completion date.

Porsche's New 'White Collection'

Think "Porsche Design" and you probably think sleek black accessories, but in a departure from their usual color scheme Porsche is launching the new "White Collection," which is all about crisp whites and shiny silvers. Chosen because it both represents purity and highlights the design of the product, the new white color theme uses all white materials mixed with technical metals like stainless steel, aluminum, and titanium. And besides premium materials and craftsmanship, the White Collection also features premium technology -- for example the mobile phone has a patented fingerprint feature and the lighters have a nozzle that makes them safe to use in inclement weather.

Porsche Designs Mobile Phone

We never thought a phone could look fast, but Porsche seems to have accomplished just that. The squarish clamshell contraption you see in the photo is the company's newest design, a cell phone it developed in cooperation with Sagem Communications.

The P'9521, launched at the Red Dot Museum in Essen, offers up a 3.2 megapixel digital camera, 320 x 240 pixel touchscreen display, high-speed internet access and MP3 capability. While we're not sure if or when the phone will hit the market, it's no doubt that the Porsche name will send this phone a long way toward marketing success.

Porsche Design B�sendorfer Piano

by Rigel Celeste (RSS feed) —

Filed under: Decor

I took piano lessons as a kid and I think I really need to refresh my skills, because there is just something so classic and cultured about being able to sit down and play something. Not to mention pianos are a beautiful addition to any room, even when there is no music.

Two Austrian based entities have come together to create the Porsche Design Bösendorfer Piano, which combines contemporary design with old tradition. It boasts silvery shiny aluminum and dark gray metallic lacquer surfaces, along with other ground breaking new design features which may have a lasting impact on future piano development. It's definitely a nice way for a more modern home to incorporate some old-fashioned culture.
