Who hasn’t tried being in that situation when you need a condom - fast? You have to get out of bed and remember where you last stashed the condoms, perhaps even toying with the idea of dropping the condom altogether, as there are many who also have an aversion to using them.
Cucoon is a product that brings this problem out into the open. How else do you find renewed appreciation for the condom, and how do you let your attitude towards the use of condoms be known to your surroundings? Aided by humour, Cucoon is a product that attempts to create an alternative and more appreciative attitude towards condoms.
With a Cucoon, you are prepared contraceptive-wise, when sex is on the cards. The condom has been given a central place of its own, within easy reach when foreplay leads to the next step - pleasurable and enjoyable, and yet also linked with untold consequences and risks.

Wooden toys don’t seem so appealing–until you take a look at Take-G’s insanely-complicated-to-produce line of handmade characters and vehicles. Artist Takeji Nakagawa takes the Japanese craft process of Yosegi-Mokuzougan (joined wooden block construction) and cranks out some uniquely weird little robo-guys. As he says on his website:
I often get asked “Why do you make robots with wood?” I don’t really have an exact answer for it but I often relate my robots with [the] ‘future’.
What do you relate [the] future with? Cities full of metal, glass and plastic [like] in a SF movie? What we really want is not that kind of future but one full of trees and something more natural. I don’t think humans can live without trees no matter what advanced technology makes.
When I think of ‘future’, I cannot help thinking of ‘past’ at the same time. Trees take long time (tens and hundreds of years) to grow and show us their beauty (the product of their past). I think that I have responsibilities as a craftsman and an artist of breathing new life into these trees. I have a job to link 100 years in the past and 100 years in the future through my work.
