Style of Design

A little while ago we’ve shown you a PS3 controller coffee table that was made by a highschool student as a school project. Today we have another similar tablet, a gaming-based design that will bring a huge NES Coffee Table in your living room. The NES Coffee Table even comes with a controller hidden in the opening lid, just like the real thing. But the coffee table itself feels just a little too chuncky for my taste so getting such a design might not be such a good idea especially if you and your friends aren’t really into retro gaming. The NEC Coffee Table is however a spectacular design, I’ll give you that, so if you are a former hardcore NES gamer, then this home project might just be the thing for you. Via Flickr

Industrial designer Harry Thaler meshes his wit with his design sensibility and the end result is the quirky Pressed Chair. This pressed aluminum chair can be shaped into a super-light stackable chair since its been manufactured from a 2.5mm sheet and hence has all the trappings of being a “future classic” according to the Tent London Tent Selects program.

In case you want to make the most of the available space in your apartment without overcrowding it with furniture then you’ll have to find smart designs that will save lots of precious space for you. That’s what the Tutoring Flowerpot and Lamp will help you accomplish. This particular design offers you a flowerpot ready to house your favorite flowers in your improvised eco-friendly corner of the house but also doubles as a lamp, as it’s basically a light source attached to the flowerpot itself. What’s interesting about this Tutoring design is that the lamp can be moved up as the plant grows, but make sure at all times that you’re not combining electricity with water. Via Mocoloco

The Japanese art of Origami has been embraced wholeheartedly by the design continuum as we keep coming across beautiful contemporary renditions time and time again of this traditional craft. The Cootie Catcher (the name itself makes it a deserving candidate to be featured here) Table re-imagines the ancient art and give it a bold modern twist with its sculpturistic structure. Designer Vivien Muller uses aluminum as the main material and isn’t scared to dot the the base with nuts and bolts.

Today we have one more piece of furniture that comes with dual purposes, the Lean Chair. Acting as a regular chair by day, the Lean Chair works as a dryer at night as it happens to offer plenty of hanging space for some of your clothes. Simply lean the Lean Chair against a radiator and your clothes will dry by morning. Sure, the Lean Chair only has limited drying capabilities, as it can’t offer you too much space for hanging your clothes. But in case you live in a smaller apartment, then this seating solution might just fit both needs. I’m rather worried about the whole sitting experience though, so better get some pillows too in order to make the Lean Chair actually comfortable. Via inqde

Pioneer Electronics has just made the home theater market more competitive by introducing a new line of affordable entry level speakers. The newly unveiled Home Theater and Music Speaker series consists of two bookshelf speakers, one floor-standing speaker, one center channel and a powered sub. The best part? All this audio goodness is just at a price range of just $79 to $199. According to Pioneer price doesn’t play a factor in quality as they come in radio-frequency-bonded curved cabinets which makes for reduced cabinet resonances.

Instead of boring faucets that still require manual handling you could simply go for the Feel Free faucet control system from Kaesch which will add a welcome technology touch to your bathroom and you’ll never have to touch another faucet again. The Feel Free faucet control system will let you control the water flow and its temperature by simply touching a few buttons on a panel linked to the faucet. The Feel Free control system will fit well with regular basins or sinks but also with showers, bathtubs and toilets. The interface is pretty intuitive and you can’t really go wrong with such a design. The only objection here is that those people that are visually challenged will have a harder time actually using the controls but hopefully Kaesch will find a solution to this problem too.
