Skinny Desk Is Subtle And Totally Useful For Someone
Thursday, January 15th, 2009MisoSoup Design’s K Workstation is a pretty clever shelf gone desk that will not only save you some space, but it’ll help designate a work area in a small room/home/office. While there’s little to no information on this sleek office design, there is one assumption that I’m confident enough to make. I am far too [...]
Phat Knits
Wednesday, December 17th, 2008Knitted by Dutch artist Bauke Knottnerus, these tangles of yarn are big enough for one epic dog pile. Seriously, nothing sounds better than rolling up in a mammoth sized swatch of knitting right about now though such a nap would probably result in a dream about being tangled in a plate of spaghetti that I’d [...]
MIESROLO Chair
Wednesday, November 26th, 2008Despite the fact that when I first saw the word “MIESROLO” I immediately thought “MISERLOU”, the chair still rocks. Actually, it rolls.
I could use like, fifty of these in my house! Ok, maybe more like two but chances are, every time I would use them I would get “Miserlou” stuck in my head and who [...]
Pac-Man Poufman
Sunday, September 28th, 2008I wonder just how many ways we can incorporate Pac, the man, into our everyday lives. Luckily for us, we can now sit on him (and stylishly too!). Inspired by everyone’s favorite dot-eating yellow circle man, the Poufman living room set sets a new high score in the Pac-Man department. Available in dark red, white, [...]
Digital Clock CD Shelf
Friday, August 1st, 2008Finding the right spot for all your CDs can be pretty tough. For instance, mine have found themselves living ina cardboard box underneath my bed. Granted, it’s a pretty cardboard box from IKEA, but still, if only they had their own shelf. So while some of us still can’t let go of our bulky music [...]
Shopping Cart Chair
Monday, June 30th, 2008While a busted shopping cart may no longer be of use to its grocery store, it’s still up for a second chance at life. Max McMurdo from Reestore collects and restores (ha! I get it!) old carts into very hip and fun Annie chairs like the one above. I got to admit, that looks like [...]
MyBox
Tuesday, May 27th, 2008When trying to save space, it’s important to complete the balance of communal and personal space. The MyBox creates a simple solution, doubling up as a private desk and a portable table. What may look like a simple table top really flips out to create an aesthetically pleasing back board to a personal desk, complete [...]
Wacky Stacky Shelves
Sunday, April 20th, 2008While an open drawer has a negative connotation of being messy to most of us, designer Shay Alkalay wants to celebrate it. The Stack drawer unit comes with the option of 8 or 13 drawers and two color schemes. It’s safe to say that all variations will look pretty flashy, tidy and straight or open [...]
Pixel Couch
Sunday, March 30th, 2008Looking a bit like an extreme close up of a Sonic the Hedgehog game, this Pixel couch caters to an audience of great variety. The fabric itself has been picked up by Danish manufacturer Kvadrat, based off of a concept by Cristian Zuzunaga, a Royal College of Art graduate.
Considering all designs Danish are [...]
Tetris Chairs
Tuesday, March 18th, 2008I think by now we’ve established that Tetris does in fact rule. Meanwhile more and more Tetris products and crafts have emerged on the scene, giving proper credit to a great game. These TT chairs, resembling the oh so modest L-block, come in an assortment of home friendly colors. By chipping out a little bit [...]
Asteroids Table
Wednesday, March 12th, 2008Here’ s a nice way to style your home or space in the most stylish of geek ways. To the average eye this may just look like any slick table, but us gamers know. Oh, we know those wire frame legs aren’t just legs. After putting this design on the back burner, it has finally [...]
Trunk Office
Monday, March 3rd, 2008It’s no Spherical Desk, but the Trunk Station from Japan makes simplification of a small place that much more attractive. Personally, apart from my closet, my desk is the most prone to unnecessary clutter. It’s just too easy to make a mess when your mind is set on something else.
With the Trunk Station you’re encouraged [...]
Spherical Office
Wednesday, January 23rd, 2008Desks tend to get messy, and that mess is not only a magnet for more mess, but a kind of eye sore that doesn’t present you very well, professionally. The Globus, designed by Michiel van der Kley, inspires simplicity and tidiness in the workspace. What first looks to be just a globe actually folds out [...]
Chair Wardrobe For Your Annoying Stuff
Monday, January 21st, 2008It’s always refreshing to take a break at your favorite cafe in town. Usually they’re not too equipped to comfortable accomodate all of the junk you’re carrying around, whether it’s your purse, shopping bags, or jacket. Created by Erohina Yulia, this concept design of the Chair Wardrobe eliminates any security woes while keeping the [...]
WARDROM – Closet Spikes
Tuesday, January 15th, 2008
I, for one, am messy when it comes to my clothes. By the time I get home, I’m too worn out to bother hanging and folding, two things I really really hate. But one thing I’m never too tired for is throwing stuff. I really really enjoy throwing stuff.
For all of you with your [...]
Growing Furniture
Saturday, January 12th, 2008Core77 featured a blog of homage this week to a couple of ingenious industrial designs. If only all furniture could be made like this… But then again, I wouldn’t get anything done. I’d be so enamored with my expandable table.
