Few days ago I pointed out how I loved design of objects where you just don’t normally think they needed re-designing? Here’s a couple more ideas I thought were interesting.

The Muji Chrononotebook above is a neat concept. I saw this posted across quite a few blogs this past Summer, now I’m seeing it crop up in magazines too. I guess it’s a lot easier planning your day’s schedule around a daily chronograph chart rather then your typical planner where you got all those stuffy lines and boxes?  One page is for the morning hours, the next page is for the evenings.  I wouldn’t mind one…it might be more reliable then this stupid WinMobile phone that’s been driving me crazy.

Now how about a tank suitcase?  One that can be easily pulled up stairs?

I’m not sure how much baggage handlers would love a odd shaped suitcase that slid all over the place though.  You might get that back later with a few extra “designer touches” you didn’t count on.  (via OhGizmo)
