If You Can’t Stand Tall, Then Sit Tall With The Brobdingnagian Chair
Who’s the real master of your domain? Doesn’t matter what your wife thinks when you’re the one sitting on the Brobdingnagian Sports Chair, a ridiculously huge folding chair fit for a king.
Tired of tall people always blocking your sight while sitting in the bleachers? Not anymore. With this chair in tow, you’re guaranteed to be the biggest douche guy in the stadium and you don’t even have to look like Kanye West to do it. Sexay.
The Brobdingnagian Sports Chair measures 5.5 feet tall and 5 feet wide, with a massive 9-foot seating area. Made from reinforced powder-coated steel frame and 400-denier rip-stop canvas, it can handle fat asses up to 400lbs and actually has enough space to accommodate two people, so you don’t fell lonely up top all by yourself. Amazingly, the whole thing folds to just 8.5 inches wide for [...]
Piano Dining Table Can Entertain While You Eat
Do you like to be entertained while you eat? Put a piano in the dining room and pay a local musician to provide the melodies. What, you don’t have the space to fit a piano with the dining table already in the way? Not a problem with the Piano Dining Table, a concept furniture/musical instrument that combines both.
Created by Georg Bohle, it’s actually just an electronic keyboard that you can access from the side of a dining table. Pretty clever. I don’t see where the music is supposed to come out (or the cables for that matter), but it’s probably somewhere sly, like underneath.
With its oak wood construction, the Piano Dining Table should serve as a nice area to share meals with the entire family. Good food goes better with sweet music? Just squeeze in and let Junior play his recital piece from last week. Oh wait, Junior sucks at [...]
Stack Chair Designates A Reading Area In Your House
Sick of your husband turning the bathroom into his own private library? Put an end to it with the Stack Chair Wall Sticker, a decal that turns an erstwhile useless wall into your home’s designated reading corner.
Created by Florian Kremb for his AMPLIFIER studio, it puts an image of the rear part of a 78 x 36 cm chair on your wall. Yep, just the rear – the backrest and the back legs. Paired with a stack of magazines, it turns the space into a functional seating fixture that actually looks like one.
Finally found the time to enjoy that magazine you picked up last week? Simply park yourself on the pile of reading materials, reach out for the one you want (it should be somewhere in the stack below) and commence reading. Once you realize what a boring conglomerate of crock you just wasted money on, just reach for a [...]
Portable All In One Chair Is A Tote Bag, Magazine Pouch And A Beer Cooler
Can’t find a quiet spot in the house to sit back, read a magazine and drink a couple beers? Hit the local park with the All-In-1 Chair and find some peace. The multi-function seating equipment integrates a folding chair with cup holders, a wheeled tote bag, a cooler, a side pocket for magazines and a storage compartment in a single stash. Yep, all that.
A versatile gear for folks who like spending lazy afternoons being.. uhm… lazy, it’s got everything you need to enjoy the urban outdoors all by your lonesome. Load it up with beer and ice, stick a few reading materials in, haul it down to the beachside and park your ass down. Good cheers.
The All-In-1 Chair is a sling-style folding chair made from 600 Denier polyester with a steel frame, two armrests and integrated cup holders. With reinforced stitching at stress points and durable piping around the edges, [...]
Fatboy Metahlowski, A Beanbag Chair For Grownups
Like most of us, you probably left the beanbags in the dorm room when you finished college, resolved never to let them into your adult life ever again. That won’t be the case if the Fatboy Metahlowski, a line of bean bags that marries sophistication with comfort, can help it.
While classier than your usual Fatboy fare, the Jukka Setala-designed chair is as lazy as the same beanbags that you rolled around in during college. The only difference is, it probably won’t be as embarrassing when you bring home a date you met at a business convention. At least, that’s what they’re hoping for.
The Fatboy Metahlowski upgrades the humble yet iconic beanbag with fine Italian fabric and sophisticated colors, such as gold, silver and titanium. Shape and measurements (55 x 70 inches), along with the cylindrical EPS fillers, remain the same as regular Fatboy floor loungers, but the resulting look is [...]
Baby Bunk Lets You Keep Your Newborn Within Arm’s Reach When You Sleep
When your newborn cries in the middle of the night, you wake up. It’s non-negotiable. However, finding the legs to get up and the head to make your way to the little tyke’s crib can be a little tough. The Baby Bunk, an infant sleeping area that can be attached to your bed, should help ease the difficulty, allowing you to tend to the baby while staying comfortable in your own bed.
Suitable for newborns up to six months, the co-sleeper puts the child within your arm’s reach at all times. That means you can simply reach out to feed and comfort the little lad once the ear-shattering crying starts.
The Baby Bunk latches onto your bed using two support arms that sit under the mattress and the boxspring, with two adjustable wooden legs providing support from the bottom. For futons and platform beds, optional lip clips and customized legs can also [...]
You Buy It, You Break It – The Less Lamp
You’ve already got a couch that you can smash into shape. Now, complement it with a giant egg that you can crack into a personalized design with the Less Lamp, a customizable, highly-original, ceiling-hung lighting fixture.
Created by artist Jordi Canudas, the pendant light source starts life as a stark-black hanging egg. Once you’ve got it hanging from your ceiling, you can then grab a hold of the included pick axe and begin poking at the shell. Punch holes into the shade, crack parts of it open and come up with your very own one-of-a-kind lamp. Even better, once you’re bored with its look, you can simply burrow more holes into the thing to change it up.
The Less Lamp is a 10 x 8.75 inch (H x W) sealed lamp, with a breakable, all-black shade built out of plaster. It can take an incandescent bulb inside, but since the whole thing [...]
A Coffee Table With Dining Aspirations: The Basic Table
Too many guests coming for supper? Time to put the Basic Table to work. Don’t worry, we didn’t ask a programmer from 1979 to design our home fixtures – it’s just the name of this awesomely-designed, short-legged coffee table that can shift shape to a full-size dining area.
A sly dinner table in disguise, there’s absolutely nothing to clue anyone in that there’s more than a simple coffee table lying in your living room. It’s one part awesome and one part disgusting. The latter, by the way, is because you’ll be eating right where I put up my feet after I take off my shoes every night. Don’t worry – I use foot powder by the pound. I smell “almost” fresh.
The Basic Table comes in square and rectangular versions. Square model measures 90 x 90 x 41 cm (L x W x H) in coffee table mode, expanding to 180 x [...]
Babies Get Their Own Transforming Furniture With The 1,2,3 Soleil
Them little ones, they grow up so fast, don’t they? Before you know it, you’re trying to find a way to get rid of their old cradle. Not very long after, you’re calling up friends to unload the crib. The 1,2,3 Soleil puts an end to wasting perfectly good baby furniture, turning out a convertible three-in-one that can work as a baby bed, a crib and a play table.
Created by Castor & Chouca, the piece literally stays with your child as he grows up. It starts out life as a baby bassinet, with a clear plexiglass top and detachable, auto-locking casters. Later, you can remove the tiny bed, replace it with a larger one sitting near the bottom and turn it into a crib. Come the time that your child needs his own bed, you can graduate the crib into a junior desk. Once he’s outgrown that too, you can [...]
ChiliPad Is A Temperature-Changing Bed That Can Help Your Marriage
She likes it hot, you like it cold. Does that describe how you and your wife like the temperature in the bedroom while you’re sleeping? Not a problem with the ChiliPad, a clever little bed with a built-in cooling and heating system.
Each bed can have up to two temperature zones, allowing you to keep your side cool and your wife’s side warm. Yep, even a camel and a polar bear can sleep right next to each other on this thing. No more fighting over the thermostat ever again.
How does it manage that? The ChiliPad contains more than mattress and springs underneath, sporting a series of coils where water passes through. It uses the same technology semi-conductors use to keep computers from overheating, changing the direction of electrons to either cool or heat the flowing water.
The temperature can be controlled by a remote, going anywhere from 46 degrees to 118 degrees [...]
Piece Your Own Furniture Together With The Jigsaw Puzzle Stool/Table
Want to turn your living room into a conundrum of tiles? Throw enough of these Jigsaw Puzzle Stool/Table pieces out there and you’ll be in business.
On its own, one of these things would make for an odd-looking but functional stool, where you can put your legs up, plop your ass down or stand on top of while cleaning the ceiling with a broom (while wearing your French Maid outfit, of course). Slap a few of them together, though, and you’ll turn up a unique-looking coffee table that you can configure to whatever size or shape you wish.
The Jigsaw Puzzle Stool/Table sports a basic stool framework for the legs and a precision die cut jigsaw tile on top. Made out of sheesham hardwood, each individual piece measures 14 x 22 x 17 inches (W x L x H). The tabletops are designed to slot right into other tabletops of the same [...]
Classy-Looking Freeline Sun Bed Splits In Two, Perfect For Love-Hate Couples On Vacation
Want to class it up while lounging under the sun? This is how you do it: Freeline’s Island Sun Bed.
Hoisted on a circular body, the summer-ready fixture sports two reclining mattresses, so you can invite a friend to come over for some fun under the sun.
Got into a bad argument with your bunk buddy? Not a problem. The bed can split in two, so you can each while the afternoon away separately.
Yep, you can rip it apart right in the middle, making it perfect for love-hate couples. If you happen to get the side with the umbrella, make sure to hide the sunscreen. That will teach your partially-estranged lover to mess with you next time.
Available as a part of the Netherlands-based company’s Island Collection, the outdoor oasis drips with contemporary flair. It features fully-upholstered cushions, four umbrella slots and edges that ably serve as table areas for your drinks. The [...]
Wiege On Chair Lets You Burn More Calories While Working, Playing, Sleeping At Work
The life of the Office Drone isn’t the healthiest around. Sitting in a comfy chair all day, you’re practically motionless, with only your hands moving majority of the time. The On Chair looks to change that, allowing you a full range of bodily movements even while sitting. That way, you’ll be burning calories while clocking in at work – all without ever seeing the insides of a gym.
Created by Wiege, it’s intentionally styled like a regular office chair at first glance. Unlike them, however, it allows you to move body parts while your ass remains glued to the seat. Fidget all you want – it self-balances so you never fall over.
The On Chair comes with a range of joints that allow the seat to tilt forwards, backwards and side-to-side. That way, you can change sitting stances constantly, allowing you to burn just a few extra calories while typing a spreadsheet [...]
Love Handles Chair Lets You Leave Your Mark Whether You Like It Or Not
Your pants may not make your ass look fat, but here’s a couch that will. Called Love Handles, it’s a thermochromatic chair that changes color when any part of your body touches it. Oooh…your ass looks way fat.
Created by Nuno Erin, the full-figured lounge chair looks like regular sitting furniture. After getting up from it, though, you’ll shriek in horror as you watch your bum, thighs, arms and, pretty much, every part of your body register on the surface, providing a testament to your current…uhm…physical challenges.
How does the Love Handles do it? The comfy-looking seat is coated with a thermo-sensitive finish that changes color in response to body heat, leaving a temporary print of the different body parts that come in contact with it. The markings will stay intact for up to several minutes, allowing people in the same room to make fun of you for a good amount of [...]
The Daily Shelter Hides A Secret Fort Within An Ordinary-Looking Table
Like to play fort, but don’t want visitors making fun of you for it? Not a problem with the Daily Shelter, an ordinary-looking table that craftily hides an elusive, secret fort.
Created by artist Ingrid Brandth, it seems like a perfectly normal dining table at first glance. Slide under it, however, and you’ll get access to a bevy of sliding and pop-up mechanisms that turn it into a veritable fort. Yes, a completely private space where you can live in your own little world. Your very cramped, own little world.
The Daily Shelter looks comfortable enough to fit a regular-sized kid. Nerdy adults like you can probably fit in too, although comfort should fall far from your list of priorities. With something that looks this good, you’ll probably end up battling with your kids and your dogs for use of the facilities, though, so be warned.
Currently a design concept, the piece appears [...]
The Transformers Home Edition: Roland Landsberg’s Boxetti Collection
The Boxetti Collection is like the Transformers of home furnishings. In stealth mode, they look like a bunch of fancy-looking boxes. Once you slide some compartments, pull out others and take out a few parts, however, they turn into functional home systems.
Dreamed up by designer Roland Landsberg, the collection is a showcase of minimalism – what else could be simpler than your entire house decked out in compact, solid blocks? When you need to use each piece, simply roll out the modules like flipping blades off a Swiss Knife. Easy peasy.
Easily the most awesome of the pieces is the Boxetti Thrill, a decked-out home entertainment system. Compacted, it looks nothing more than an innocent closet (or a wild-looking fridge). One punch on the remote, however, and the sliding door opens to reveal a woofer, a 7.1 channel receiver and a BD player. Oh wait, it’s not yet done – there [...]
