Your typical pull-out sofabed is a marvel of modern engineering, but with all those interconnected parts and a mattress that’s designed to fold away, they’re not exactly the epitome of comfort. At least not compared to Guido Rosati’s brilliantly simple Scoop sofabed which simply opens and closes like a giant pair of scissors. More »

In many homes, and nearly all apartments, floorspace comes at a premium. That’s what makes bunkbeds such a space saver. The Dumbo Double Murphy Bed takes it a step further by letting you fold them up. More »

Taking inspiration from the modular tiled design of modern smartphones, Mamikim’s cleverly named ADAPTable is composed of six A4-sized wooden tiles that can be moved around and repositioned. So every time you come to work, you can customize it for the task at hand. More »

I’ve seen a lot of chairs in my lifetime, and none of them are as dizzying or puzzling as the Chair Ssstoell. Even its name is complicated right from the get-go.

It looks unstable and confusing. And from another angle, it looks like it’s comprised of three chairs that have been stacked one on top of the other, but from another, you can see that it’s actually just one chair.

Here’s a fun fact: ‘stoel’ is actually Dutch for ‘chair.’ Seeing as this one is sort of like three chairs in one, the triple ‘S’ they used for the ‘ssstoel’ part of the name is actually quite fitting.

The Chair Ssstoel was designed by Voortman and Girod. It’s also for sale, too, although it’s crazy expensive at $1,320 (USD – plus $157 for international shipping.) For that price, you could certainly buy three of your own chairs, stack them on top of each other, and put the other $1,000 back in your pocket.

Some fish lovers go all out with some pretty elaborate aquariums, but what if you never ever want to be apart from your fish. Well, you can always sleep with the fishes, and this aquarium bed is a pretty neat way to do that.

This 650 gallon fish tank that rests just above your head while you sleep. Is that comforting or not? I personally would never trust any 650 gallon tank above me ever, but that’s just me. This amazing tank was created by Acrylic Tank Manufacturing for Jamestown, North Carolina’s Furnitureland South and was featured on an episode of Animal Planet’s Tanked.

If you want one like this, it will cost you about $12,000 for the privilege of sleeping under this thing, but if you really love fish it is probably well worth it. You might finally find Nemo even.
