Oclock by Van Esch

by Stefan, posted in Home Gadgets, on January 26th, 2010

Everyone loves to make his home a beautiful and attractive place no matter how much expenses are required to accomplish this desire. Now-a-days, people are spending too much fortune to make their house attractive and unique. With Oclock by Van Esch your home will definitely be unique. The giant clock is placed on the floor and ensures that the current time is therefore very attractive.

If you have the space necessary for this giant piece than you should definitely have one of these. With a clock like this you’ll never have to ask yourself what time it is. It would be really embarrassing to have a piece like this in your home and to still be late. Actually, when you think about, it would make a very good gift for someone who is known to always be late at meetings. This way he will get the message that you’re trying to transmit and he won’t be offended because it’s a very beautiful piece. If only it would be that simple…

Anyway, whatever your intentions are, I’m sure this oversized clock will make it easier for you. This is the kind of piece that I would love to have in my home. And I’m sure there are plenty of people to think the same.

Retro-tech Platinum Table

by Stefan, posted in Home Gadgets, on January 13th, 2010

The Retro-tech Platinum table is a coffee table with a 22-inch monitor and a computer inside. The idea is that you hook the table up to your TV as a media center. Anyway the coffee table is a little expensive, it’s available for $4,850. But you can build this exact product for yourself for closer to $1,000.

The idea is very clever. I’m sure a lot of people are wishing they could do more than one thing at a time. This coffee table allows you to do that. You can enjoy your coffee and in the same time you can use the built-in computer. It’s an interesting concept but I wouldn’t want to have this piece of furniture in my home.

In the morning I just like to enjoy my coffee and to relax without being preoccupied with anything else. There’s plenty of time to use the computer later on in the day, and the same goes for the TV. But this could be a very useful piece of furniture for those who are very busy and there’s just not enough time to be able to dedicate that time just for coffee. It’s not the best case scenario but it happens so you just to make the best of it.{found on dvice and bornrich}

Cornered Coffee Table by Dylan Gold

by Stefan, posted in Home Gadgets, on November 24th, 2009

A coffee table is a necessary purchase for most living rooms. Now more than ever, consumers have their choice from a veritable buffet of stylistic options of wooden coffee tables, the most popular material when it comes to this piece of furniture.
This Cornered Coffee Table by Dylan Gold is a coffee table that encourages clean surface space by giving your magazines and table books a home. Ideally for those who read daily books or newspapers. I have seen many coffee tables, and this one is ok in terms of design, but it is pretty expensive for a coffee table($1900).

But most coffee tables are expensive, so if you really like this design a few extra $ won’t make such a big difference. The color is very nice, a dark tone of brown. It’s a very simple piece, except for that additional storage space for books and magazines, but even that one is simple. It would be great for a lice simple and elegant living room. But it would also fit nicely into an office or waiting room, because of the magazine storage space.

Crystal Box Elder coffee table

by Stefan, posted in Home Gadgets, on November 16th, 2009

Decorating or redecorating your home can be fun and exciting. Throughout the years, your style of furnishing has probably had many changes from the bedding, sofas and even your coffee table. Coffee tables continue to be very popular and expensive also.

For example the Crystal Box Elder coffee table designed by Oregon Burls and hand crafted by Greg Dahl is evaluated at $1,499.00.Made from elder wood which is one of the lightest wood types and with a glass top . The glass is a crystal light smoke with a beveled edge which is surrounded by black rings and also includes the nylon adjustable feet for leveling.

It certainly has an interesting look. The base looks very…organic. Maybe a little too organic for some people. Anyway, it is an unusual piece for people with unusual tastes. With a price like this it should at least be spectacular, which it is.

Sony Playstation PS3 Coffee Table

by Stefan, posted in Home Gadgets, on November 16th, 2009

For those who are game addicts, here is an amazing PS3 coffee table by designer Stephane Perruchon. The PS3 table features handmade PS3 controllers as the base, complete with two handles made of ABS and then decorated with the buttons. The table is available in black and white versions. No word on the price is yet available on the site.

This piece of furniture, even if it’s a coffee table, I think is very appropriate for teenagers. We all know hoe they like to spend hours in front of the TV playing games with their friends. Who can blame them? It’s a lot of fun and I wish I could do that all day long again, but that’s life, you don’t get what you want.

The PS3 coffee table would also be very fun to put in an office, especially at a company that specializes in computer games. The ones working there are probably oversaturated with games and everything that has to do with them so they probably wouldn’t want to see this piece in their home.

Single Line Furniture by Yuppie Hippie

by Stefan, posted in Home Gadgets, on October 12th, 2009

Here is a interesting innovative office design by Yuppie Hippie.For me it looks very well and I don`t like because it is only a nice concept, but because I`m sure that this concept would look pretty good in reality. The name of the collection suggests the most important feature of this furniture: the fact that all the furniture is intended to be made only of an uninterrupted line of wood, plywood or even metal – whatever the designer considers appropriate to use for making all the furniture in a room.

In the pictures below you can see that this line begins with the computer support, then it goes on by being the desk you need in your room and then it goes down line a ribbon as book shelves. But it does not end here – it continues with the support for the printer , makes a nice contour as a cool chair , going up in a curved shape in big shelves for DVDs, books, files or even decorative objects. The margin of the furniture is yellow in order to emphasize the contour and uninterrupted line.
