Earthquake-proof Table

20120116016

The effective measures to fight against earthquake continued to improve, and here comes the Earthquake-proof Table, a collaborative work by Arthur Brutter and Ido Bruno. Though seems very common, the table actually could successfully protect people from possible injuries during the earthquake, which has been approved by a series of rigorous vertical impact tests. As an additional bonus, the earthquake-proof table also takes into account the financial limitations of people who may need it, and thus it will be produced with cost effective, yet responsible production methods and durable inexpensive materials.

Fjarill Drawers

20120110006

Danish designer Jakob Joergensen has created the Fjarill Drawers, a distinctive piece of furniture with drawers opened in different directions, to bring some new inspirations to the boring world composed of traditional pull-out drawers. Apparently the Fjarill has a diagonal slot channeled beneath each drawer, but we still couldn’t figure out its exact mechanism because there’s no specific explanation for that. Anyhow, the end effect is undeniably amazing, especially when all the drawers are pulled out.

20120104001

For small-apartment owners, the space-saving and multifunctional furniture sets are always welcomed, and on their lists there’s Claudio Sibille’s Sensei.

Facebook Bed

20111230011

How popular do you think the Facebook is? Normally we’re no longer contented with using it for most time of the day, as we’re in big favor of sleeping with Facebook! You got it? We need a Facebook Bed simply the same as this one designed by Tomislav Zvonaric. It’s amazing, combining almost all features of the Facebook website, but so pity that it’s merely a concept at the time.

In cold cold winter, we’re likely to do almost everything in bed, including studying, working, playing and of course sleeping.

Anything full of connotation is always appreciated. Just as a man with rich connotation attracts us much more, a cabinet with unique connotation is highly welcomed to our home too. Put forward by Uruguayan designer Claudio Sibille, the “Ludovico” chest is made from eucalyptus wood, featuring one table on the surface and one or two chairs inside it.

Welcome to my personal lawn rightly inside my apartment! Never doubt your own eyes, and I’m not kidding, my lawn is really inside the room rather than outside of it. Why? You need to ask Haiko Cornelissen Architecten, who created the sod-covered aluminum table to bring the outdoorsy experience into city apartments.

Swingers Bench

20111218003

Rest on a bench and play seesaw. The “Swingers” chair, an awesome piece of furniture designed for two people, allows people to move and play while they’re taking a break. By doing that, the designer aims to make people smile more and get closer to each other as much as possible. So will that really work? We believe it would. Still, if you meet such a bench one day, we hope you could sit down and play it with the others.
