Edith the Mailbox

Juniper Foo | May 19, 2005

There're no batteries, wires or processor chip to this low-tech creation, but it earns a spot in Gadgetbuzz for pushing the envelope on those boring boxy mailboxes hanging by a wire on gates. Canadian designer Adriean Koleric has even given his brainchild a name--Edith. Recently showcased at the biannual 2005 FROST/THAW furniture exhibit in Edmonton, Edith possesses plenty of sass in blazing pink and a free-flowing design that should bring a smile on any postman's face despite the welcoming canine committee at the doorstep.
