The Making of Neon Signs

Passing by business signage everyday, I don’t think we take enough time to appreciate the art and craftsmanship it took to get that sign made. Particularly with neon signs, it’s a craft that a lot of people take for granted unknowingly. In appreciation of the craft The Making of Neon Signs by Cpak Studio for M+ gives us an inside look at how neon signs are made as master craftsmen go through the production processes from design, tube bending, gas filling and more. It’s only 11-minutes out of your day, so don’t hesitate to show some appreciation.

 

Gold Plated Xbox One

gold-plated-xbox-one-00

Standing out from the crowd can come at a high price, but if you’ve got the money to do it, the Gold Plated Xbox One would be perfect to show off. From luxury department store Harrods, they bring you a very expensive Xbox One ($9,780 to be exact) that’s plated with 24-carat gold and there is only one available. It’s only available at Harrods’ London location, but if you’re even considering buying it, then you probably won’t have a problem getting to London. No special features are included, just the bragging rights of calling yourself a “baller.”

NBA 2K14

NBA-2K14-00

You’re probably thinking, “Oh great, another rigged NBA 2K game.” In a few ways it probably will be, but NBA 2K14 definitely has its perks. Crews is back after being left out for two years, Dynamic Live Rosters is probably one of our favorites due to the fact that it automatically updates daily to reflect true life hot and cold streaks. One thing we are really stoked about is the enhanced defense, which includes blocked dunks, and the new Pro Stick that lets you throw down show-stopping moves, pull off intricate shots, and toss flashy no-look passes with much-needed accuracy.

BenQ W1500 Projector

BenQ-W1500-Projector

There are several words that can describe this handsome piece of tech, but the first words that come to our mind are “luxury projector.” The BenQ W1500 is just that along with many other features you’ll soon be drooling over. As a matter of fact, its the first home projector with a built in wireless feature. It also features built-in speakers, Blu-ray support, 3D support and even 2D to 3D conversion. You’ll also be able to expand the screen up to 300″, but that obviously requires a big ass room.
