desktop architecture seriestags: office
WHILE MOST OFFICE ACCESSORIES generally err on the side of practicality, Hani Rashid’s Desktop Architecture series oozes with style–quite literally, in fact. From a droopy pencil holder to a melting d furnitureanizer, each of Hani’s pieces manage to be both cutting- Beverly Hills: Edge / Leather Sofa Sets and sophisticated. Functional? Maybe. Pretentious? Probably. Cool? Heck yeah.

Moody Aquarium Sink
Many people enjoy keeping an aquarium. There is something calming about watching tropical fish swimming and the tank is a great focal piece. You usually see the tank in living and family rooms but what about the bathroom? Intalbrass’ Moody Aquarium Sink will liven up boring routines like washing hands and brushing teeth.
It is really a functional aquarium. The tank is watertight and sits on a chrome finish brass stand with an integrated towel rail in the front. Access for feeding and tank maintenance is through the two soap dishes on either side of the sink. Water circulation, oxygenation and filtration are all delivered by the powerhead provided. It’s available for $4700 from HomeClick. - Via
A Smart Bunk Bed by Flying Beds
The Smart Beds from Flying Beds really live up to their name as a truly ingenious selection of space saving and innovative designs. Previously Furniture Fashion reported on the Twirly Bed that allows a desk/ bookcase by day and a fold out Murphy style bed by night all in a wall hugging 22" profile. The Castello is an equally cool Smart Bed and offers a double fold out bunk bed with ladder in a slim 10" depth. In addition a single top bunk can be left closed leaving the lower bunk working as a sofa with help from some back pillows. The Castello is available in white, cherry, maple, white oak, wenge, or walnut melamine and costs $4050USD complete with ladder, safety rail, and two 6" thick foam mattresses. Open Dimensions 89" height, 84" wide, 39" deep
Snappy Convertible Sofa
This convertible sofa has something that I never saw before. Is like a little puzzle game. If you look at the pictures you’ll understand what I’m talking about what i say puzzle. The ottoman perfectly slides into the detachable seatback and armrests–forming a stylish two-toned bed in the process. This convertible sofa can be purchased from here with $899. - Via - PadStyle
The Oceano Jewelry Cabinet by Poltrona Frau
When it comes to innovation and really cool convenient space saving furniture accessories, Poltrona Frau is one name that won't let you down. The Oceano jewelry cabinet by designer Andree Putman definitely makes the best use of a small space. A fold up style design allows you to conceal your valuables when not in use, and the wheels allow you to move the Oceano away to the closet or another out of the way spot. I must say Andree Pitman left nothing out of this very intricate jewelry storage cabinet which sports a multitude of various sized drawers, hanger, trays, and cabinets.
Greentainer Greenhouse Project
Shipping containers are perhaps one of the most common supply chain items in the world. The standard container moves product on cargo ships in millions of tons on a given day. Often, we forget how goods came to be in our city of residence. Exposure Architects put the "Greentainer" project together where they focused on the container and designing something that was friendly to the environment. This is an interesting concept that reminds me of a really cool greenhouse. Via. Exposure Architects.

adrift mobilestags: miscellanea
ALTHOUGH THEY MAY SEEM CHILDISH these mobiles by Adrift are decidedly adult in size, with wingspans approaching 5 feet for some models. Deftly balanced and hung with thin monofilament lines and ball-bearing swivels, each piece of the model rotates at its own speed; the overall effect is a bit hypnotic. Gentle curves and a mixture of bamboo, walnut and maple add to the tranquil atmosphere that these pieces create; in this way they are remarkably like their smaller crib-sized brethren.

Block Wall Shelves from West Elm
Beverly Hills: Block / Leather Sofa Sets wall shelves from West Elm are a good way to highlight small home décor accents in your house. A neat feature is that these shelves are thicker than normal wall shelving which creates a different look al together. I further like the fact that they can be arranged in many different patterns according to your own tastes. Pictured here in chocolate, Beverly Hills: Block / Leather Sofa Sets wall shelves also come in white, coco wood, and acorn colors. Constructed of hardwoods, these shelves measure 6"l x 5"d x 5"h. Price: $44-$54. Available: here.
