Wonder Furniture

August 17th, 2010

Somnys Multiuse FurnitureFurnitures are what make our house our house, different from other and quite unique in the world, that’s because we choose different furnitures that we think are perfect for our house. However I love large beautiful furnitures though, I rarely buy those, my choices are usually incline to small multiuse furnitures, like this “Somnys” Multiuse Furniture!

Despite that we cannot dedicate a pretty serious amount of space to large furniture like beds and tables so as to accommodate our guests, we can still create them a comfortable “living room” with the “Somnys” transformer furniture. Designed by Fabien Rolland, the modular coffee table can pack flat for easy storage when not in use while transform into a guest bed when needed. It’s also easy to assemble and collapse, allowing the users to convert it from a table into a bed in quite a short time.

It is a table, and a bed too, and it looks really beautiful! And it takes not much room, this is really useful.

So as to make our life more happier and less boring we’re always happy to see little gadgets and nice tips, and today I’m going to introduce this little cutie to all of you — the In Out Bottle for sugar, no more spilled sugar!

Just push down its lid and the In Out Bottle will reveal incorporated funnels for refilling sugar. Do you think the idea will catch on? Perhaps, as it’s already an IDEA Design 2010 winner.

Innovative Dinning Table for Easy Dinner

August 08th, 2010

Table Set DesignA dinning table is like the most essential furniture in our house, we eat everyday by them. And as we all know, to have our dinner we also need some plates to carry our delicious dishes, only then can we have dinner. But where do we put our plates? On the dinning table of course! Then why not combine the two together?!

Well, check out this Table Set Design:

What would happen if we combine the plates and dinning table together? Having that question in mind, Elad Kashi has spent much time designing an innovative table and finally come up with the Table Set. It is a round table built with several ceramic plates on the top so that the users can directly put the dishes onto them without having to serve extra plates. Those plates are also removable, allowing for easy cleaning and installing.

Everyone loves to do things more easily, so this is a really good idea, especially to the housewives. Now we can just clean the table set instead of a table and many plates, it’s easier. But don’t you feel a little weird eating directly on the table, since we’ve been told not to ever since we were very young? Well, guess we’ll just get used to it, or maybe wait for another innovative design to take place… :) Anyway, this is a really nice design, sweet!
