Several Original Benches
Tube bench design by Peter Donders is a real sculpture. Creation of the final bench - it is a complex process. It needs using of high technology with constructing 3D model of a shape to make many future similar objects. But at first simple tube has been stretched and optimized via interactive simulation to create an optimal form. Then this form is "baked" to make it solid and after this process the preparation of 3d model starts. Crash bench is designed by Liliana Ovalle (England). This item shows what can be done of fine and perfect lines of usual objects due to unexpected impact of something uncontrolled. The bench made of fiberglass and steel structure actually carries a deep philosophical meaning. You can read about other interesting benches below.

The tunnel can be used as an armrest for people and very comfortable place for cats for playing and hiding inside. Most people who like pets will understand the value of such kind of furniture. The cats are very communicative pets. Sometimes they don’t want to have their own shack to live in, they want to share the living space with human. And they try to do all the best to be closer to you: they sit next to you, lie near you when you sleep, when you eat they have to sit at the same stool that you sit on. Moreover some cats are very mobile, they can’t just sit or lie they want to explore something. This sofa is the best decision for such cats, because it’s made and designed after analyzing and observing cats’ habits and behaviors. So the Cat Tunnel Sofa is the furniture for your pets, and don’t sit there not asking permission of your cat.

If you have no flowers in your garden you can use the Dandelion stool instead, or it will be even better if you put there several stools. From the first sight they are not much like the stools because of their brightness and unusual design. But in fact it’s very comfortable stool made of plywood. The ‘flower head’ of the stool is very soft, heat and water resistant, moreover it has removable covers. So you can try different colors for one and the same stool. Placed in the yard, stools will make it more colorful and cozy. The Dandelion stool is ergonomically designed in the UK by DesignK.

Futuristic Lighting for a Staircase by PSLAB
Very interesting decision to illuminate a staircase was proposed by lighting company PSLAB. They have created lighting design for a spiral staircase in Beirut home (Lebanon). The main peculiarity of this lighting composition is its location. The rectangular holes with lamps inside are mounted right in the back sides of the steps of the staircase. So if we look in the staircase from the base it is a feeling like we are inside of some flying saucer or a spacecraft. The fact that this spiral staircase has no rails and the back sides of the steps are lit makes this composition look futuristic. It’s a new idea in design of staircases when illumination is an essential part of the design itself. [caption id="attachment_22583" align="aligncenter" width="600"] staircase-light[/caption]

On the photo below you can read a sentence “read your book case”. The cubes of three different sizes can be assembled not only into a bookcase.

The main philosophy of popular scientific direction – synergetic – is that no one independent scientist can make an enough grand discovery as well as no one scientific field can do it independently. Demonstration of this philosophy we can watch in the projects and works of designer Philipp Beisheim. Today we want to introduce to you his project called “Toad”. This construction, containing of several segments, functions only when they are connected with each other. It is a table which can be useful as decorative stand, shelf or versatile side table. The "Toad" consists of three tabletops and three legs – each leg for appropriate tabletop. And at least two segments connected to each other acquire stability. This table looks very elegant and makes any room cozy.

Side by Side Chairs by Twodesigners
Urban world is very static and has not very much fantasy in it. Usual furniture is created using the same principles as it used in the previous centuries. “Twodesigners” gives us possibility to diversify our environment, to invent other purposes for simple things. This project took part of Cork city culture 2010. Eleban - the “side by side chairs” – is rather simple and encouraging to fantasize construction. Looking at this construction the desire to rotate it and to invent different missions for it appears. This chair is rather transportable and can be placed both indoors and outdoors. The connection of several chairs can be used as airport chairs or in another public places.
