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

Remeber iCushion, the Iphone 3GS Shaped Pillow that we presented a few months ago ? Today here is another another “Apple product” made from plush. Just like that computer on your desk, this 17-inch tall, one-of-a-kind plush iMac comes with a matching wireless keyboard and mouse. Unlike your computer, it’s made from felt with polyester stuffing. Created by textile artist Kerry Hughes, the plush iMac appears to be running Logic Pro 8, so it’s perfect for iMac fans who are also musicians. If you are an Apple fan and love Apple and their products as much as you say you do, then you will welcome the Plush iMac into your house with arms wide open. Finally we think that this Plush iMac would look great on a piece of furniture and we’re pretty sure that it can get a lot of attention. You can get one iMac like this from Etsy. – Via – FreshBump

Bookcases shouldn’t just be efficient storage solutions for your favorite books, especially with all the smart designs available out there. Such is the case with the Hive, a great bookcase ready to shelter most of your books. The Hive Bookcase is “inspired by both the natural shelter build by bees and traditional forms of Arab Andalusian architecture” and it will certainly awake your reading passion. The Hive is not only a great piece of furniture but also a great separator between two different areas of a studio as its shelves are accessible from both sides. Each storage unit has a hexagonal shape and will definitely let you store other items besides books, although such a creation should be a book-only piece of furniture. Via Darenart

Designed by Jason Phillips Design the Corocotta Table is a concept that employs solid wood end cuts from furniture production and links them together in a twisting configuration that accepts a glass top and can be used as a cocktail table. Measuring 54×30x17”h, the piece is supported by a steel armature that is threaded through the cubes, providing a structurally sound form that defies gravity. The piece was influenced by the story of an ancient warrior. According to several historians, Corocotta was a Cantabrian warrior leader during the 1st century BC. His great achievement was the union of the disperse Cantabri clans in an alliance against the invading Roman armies, to the great exasperation of the powerful empire.

He fought against Rome from the years 29 BC to 19 BC. The Roman historian Dio Cassius relates the story of this robber who caused numerous difficulties for the Roman Army. Such was his fame that during the campaign of Emperor Augustus in Cantabria from 26-25 BC, a price of 200,000 sestercii was put on his head. To the emperor’s astonishment, none other than Corocotta himself walked into the Roman camp, presenting himself and demanding the reward. In a gesture to Corocotta’s bravery, the Augustus let him go after granting him the money. Beautiful story …and beautiful piece of furniture.

This Plug-in Side Table is not only going to act as a really neat night stand for your bedroom but it’s also going to bring light to the room whenever light is needed. Depending on how you’re looking at it this Side Table doubles as a lamp or as a bedside table, but either way you’re the winner here if deciding to opt for such a design. The only thing that might be a problem is that the Plug-in Side Table might not match the height of your wall sockets so some wall remodeling will be required to accommodate this piece of furniture / lamp. But you like the Plug-in Side Table, don’t you? Via Decoist
