This week’s Design Milk Dairy roundup features our favorite geometric shape: the triangle. And where better to have a triangle than on your iPhone. Here are some of our favorite triangle-covered iPhone cases over on Society6.
The Design Milk Dairy isn’t just about offering a hand-picked selection of great art for your walls, but as we demonstrated last week, there are quite a few beautiful accessories for your tech devices, too. This week we’ve added four new iPhone cases to our lineup – all inspired by vintage cameras.
Being the online leader in electronic payments, PayPal has just launched a new mobile payment system called PayPal Here. The triangle-shaped device plugs into your smartphone’s earphone jack and lets anyone accept credit cards. Designed by Yves Behar of fuseproject, the triangle front slides down to prevent the device from spinning around while swiping the card.
Designer Anton Repponen made my dream iPhone interface, which he calls iOS ’86. I wish with my whole heart that this could become reality.

Who wouldn’t want to talk on a LEGOphone? LA-based artist Morrisa Maltz created Mofones, a series of artist-designed iPhone cases. What started as a personal art project has blossomed into a real viable business. Mofone has quite a few mass-produced designs you can grab at Urban Outfitters and Nordstrom, and Maltz has plans to create a series of price points — one-of-a-kind, limited editions and more affordable mass-produced cases. Which one would you rock out everyday?
Okay gadget guys and gals. We’ve curated the best of Design Milk’s technology offerings this year, and they encompass the cute (a kiddie iPad) to the crucial (great workspaces) to innovative (grocery shopping via billboard) to the just plain useful (a soundless alarm clock). While some are simply for play, others allow you to take existing gizmos to a whole new level.
anaPad
anaPad is a children’s magnetic white board made in the exact dimensions of an iPad that comes with an erasable marker and app-style magnets. Almost as good, though twice as cute, as the real thing.
