Call it A Versatile Storage System

May 17th, 2010

Turning BoxesAlong  with our living standard being improved, our living space is becoming more and more small, not because we’re getting less living space, just we’re simply getting more and more gadgets for our life, and we might not have a storage system that is smart enough to store them nicely.

Yes, that’s our problem, it’s not that we can’t have so many little things, it’s just we need a nice storage system which can help us do the storage efficiently and beautifully. If you haven’t find yours yet, maybe this Turning Boxes is what you’ve been looking for.

Good design helps with better life! Take Lab Istanbul’s Turning Boxes for example. The creative bookshelf is made up of a series of boxes that can be conveniently rotated to serve as either a shelf or a container. So it is actually a multifunctional storage system for studio apartments and other small living areas where full-size furniture isn’t welcomed.

This is a really nice design, very beautiful and functional, and it can do storage for almost all your gadgets including books. It is really great to have this thing for life, and with a label on each box, everything’s literally at hand!

60 Drawers for All Your Gadgets

May 12th, 2010

60 Drawer Storage CabinetWe all love little gadgets and we do have many little gadgets, but do you still feel like you don’t have enough? Well, I do, simply because I don’t know where they are when I want to use them. Another problem that really bothers me is that when I don’t want to use them I really don’t know where to put them, so sometimes they just mysteriously disappear, then I had to buy new ones that will probably face the same destination.

Well, that’s one reason why we’ve always got too many gadgets (and another is that we simply love cute gadgets). So a nice storage system will do just great to us, and help us to cut some avoidable cost. And I think this 60 Drawer Storage Cabinet is very good for this.

One, two, three, four… possibly nobody could figure out the exact number of the drawers this unique furniture actually has on the first sight. And guess what, there’re totally 60 drawers!!! OMG, no wonder it is deemed as a ‘Drawer Camp’.

The 60 drawers are totally enough for me, but will these drawers be enough for you? Anyway, the one thing I have not figured out about this cabinet is where to put this weird shaped cabinet. Any idea?
