Scotch tape is one of those everyday utilitarian items that could come in all manner of cool designs. Yet there’s been nary a one we found Vondrous until we came across this by Korean designers Jeong-Min Lee and Hyong-Min Park. X-Tape is designed to look as if a box or gift-wrapped present is closed together with hinges. Contact the designers directly for pricing and shipping info.
Carrying a bottle opener and two screwdrivers—a Phillips and a flat head—on your key chain might not send a completely unmistakable signal that you are a geek. Remove all doubt by walking around with the Space Intruder Multi-Tool keychain. $20 (on sale at writing for $15)
