Oyster Active from Noramon Mekavuthiku. Love the idea of a combo activity monitor and Oyster Card in one and the idea that waking earns you discounts. If only TFL would take it up!
Ever noticed how quick we are to judge? Nathalie Jerming-Havill wanted to demonstrate how difficult that can be to interviewers. She asked them to construct a simple Duplo style figure (as interviewees would need to construct a picture of their competencies) while wearing inverting lenses. Despite confidence, most were unable to succeed. Love the branding too!
