Skeletal Storage System- Interesting or Dull?

Created by Swiss designer, Giulio Parini, this strange looking skeletal system is meant to be a decorative object- a wall structure, to be more exact. It is called “The Tensor Voting System” and besides its arty function it has a very practical one as well: storage.

This skeletal structure can hold books, CDs, sun glasses and all sort of other small objects by using the help of its iron rods.-via HomeTone

Clay Furniture from Maarten Bass

Maarten Bass is an interior designer from Holland and he`s well known by his irregular furniture ideas or maybe we should call them ‘strange’.  Clay furniture is made of synthetic Clay, with a metal “skeleton” inside to reinforce the structure. Every piece is handmade  and without using any models, it keeps the unique design.


Here you will find more about it.

Interesting Multi-Level Table

Who says that tables can`t become a playful ground and an opportunity to create, they’re wrong! As we can see, these beautiful pieces are assembled in many color variations which provide a warm environment.

The multi-level ‘sheets’ could also match with other accessories or furniture from around the table. You will find more design ideas for your crib here.

This is an interesting and really funny design idea from Dominic Wilcox.

It is a doorbell concept that seems to know everything about your visitors, even details such as their weight and age.

Corner Shelves

Designed by William Freenay,  the Lorna Corner Shelf can be custom made to serve your storaging needs.

The corners in one’s house often go by unnoticed and unused. This is your chance to get rid of all those things that are lying around and that you would like to organize.

You can also specify the color when placing the order. The items in the picture are amazing, but unfortunately the price for piece rises up to almost 1400 US Dollars. But the costs are different for each custom made corner shelf.
