With a design that promises to revolutionize flirting at the bar, Karthik Poduval’s Room For Two stool features an expanding design that allows it to seat two people when the need arises. So there doesn’t have to be an extra stool available when there’s someone you want to sidle up to.

Inside this big white pod is a six-foot-wide octagonal waterbed encircled by soft LED mood lighting and an 80-watt audio system. You’ll never want to leave.

When decorating their over-the-top headquarters, supervillains need to choose bold office furniture that matches their even bolder schemes to take over the world. And designer Toni Grilo delivers with this gravity-defying coffee table, which looks like it’s perpetually on the verge of falling over.

When it was time for the NYC ad agency, Barbarian Group, to design a new office, they wanted to do something different. The agency wanted something more open, less inhibiting. So architect Clive Wilkinson built them an "endless table."

The obvious plan of attack when you’re building a stool is to just toss a round wooden seat on the top and call it a day. It’s functional, for sure, but nowhere near as creative as Arthur Schmitt’s Anice Stool, which is a 3D-printed plastic core that lets you use whatever material you want for the seat.

This unusual bedside table was inspired by the works of Salvador Dalí and made by Oscar Tusquets, an artist in Spain. He built these drawers using taxidermied sheep. Obviously.
They specifically reference this image by Dalí seen here called “Interpretation Project for a Stable-Library.” You can see the sheep cabinet on the left side of the image. And now this dude is bringing it to life. Using dead sheep. Tusquets worked with a famous French taxidermy studio in Paris, to make 21 sheep cabinets in all. Each one has bronze feet, a tabletop and a drawer for all of your stuff that you absolutely must store in a dead sheep.
There will be 20 white sheep and one black sheep with white legs, just to keep things interesting. Each cabinet will sell for about $82,000(USD). Now that’s a lot of bah bah bucks.

This gorgeous wooden table, designed by Ruben Beckers, is called kleinergleich5—which means "less than five"—because it weighs 4.5 kilos, just 10 pounds. What the hell?

As the number of documents you actually need to print diminishes year by year, you’re probably finding that you don’t use office accessories as quickly. Like staples, which are all but useless without stacks of paper to bind. But designer Nilly Mozer has come up with another way to use them up: A lovely clear table that’s really only complete once you’ve adorned it with rows and rows of staples.

Cats are great, but their scratching posts and furniture take up a lot of room. One solution is to put all of this furniture on the upper walls and ceilings. You’re not using those spaces and your cat will appreciate it.
Cats like to feel like they are up in the trees, as they would be in their natural environment, so these only make sense. These climbing components and sleeping spots come from the German company Goldtatze, and you can see more pictures at hauspanther.
German engineering for kitties. Now they can take over the ceiling and give you a break down below.
Those cats sure do look happy. Though they will still act all aloof, and probably walk across your human furniture to spite you.
