Daymak C5 Blast Go-Kart
Of all the best things to come out of Canada (Drake, peanut butter, err, the paint roller) Daymak’s C5 Blast has got us the most excited. The world’s fastest go-kart, it’s capable of accelerating from 0 to 60mph in 1.5 seconds, which is faster than most Formula 1 machines. Here’s hoping the brakes are just as impressive.

Timex Fairfield Chronograph
Timex has been plying its trade for more than 160 years. This may go some way to explaining why it’s so hard to find anything that holds a horological candle to the US brand. The new Fairfield Chronograph Collection offers six simple but striking designs in a range of metals and straps including perforated leather, preppy nylon stripe, and a classic mesh bracelet.

Coach Space Zip Card Case
With those shiny silver suits and fish tank helmets, astronauts are hardly the most stylish blokes in the stratosphere. Nonetheless, US brand Coach has still managed to beam up this beauty of a cardholder as part of its Space capsule collection. With a UFO patch, it’s an easy way to look good (even if your overdraft has been abducted this month).

Nescafe Dolce Gusto Eclipse Touch Coffee Machine
Some people yearn to return to a time when coffee was simpler. Until they remember what that tasted like. Nescafe’s latest Dolce Gusto machine is a very futuristic way to get a morning fix. Described as ‘a starship that had relations with a doughnut and returned to earth to dispense hot drinks’, it uses touchscreen technology that even the least intelligent (or caffeine-deprived) lifeform could work.

Minim Cards
Minim Cards are the result of New York-based designer Joe Doucet looking to find out how much design could be taken away from a deck of cards while still being playable. We like to think there was an early set that went a little too far had everyone bluffing (quite literally) their way through an, albeit stylish, game of snap.
