Turn up the heat in style!
Every building has one of these. Tired of guessing? The answer, the ugly square beige color thermostat. A former Apple executive created this stylish, easy to use thermostat.

Hanger Chair
Philippe Malouin creates “Occasional furniture”.
“The name should be self explanatory, but it is somewhat incorrect in most cases. These pieces tend to lie around the house, stacked in a corner, or in an unused room. When space is an issue, as is the case for most European city dwellers, an object such as a folding chair will clutter up the precious available space. The Hanger Chair is a folding chair based on one of the ultimate storage systems: the modest hanger. It allows us to store clothes in an orderly fashion. Most houses or flats are equipped with a wardrobe to receive the object. By morphing the function of the hanger with that of the folding chair, a new hybrid is born: a Hanger Chair that has a function, even when not in use, to store our clothes in an orderly fashion.”

Faceted Mirror Side Table
A bit of multifaceted old-Hollywood glamour from west elm. This table’s angled sides, clad in antiqued mirror, reflect and refract light, adding a shimmering element to any room.
The Mirrorcube
Here are some photographs of the completed Tree Hotel by Tham & Videgård Arkitekter, a mirrored glass box suspended round the trunk of a tree in Harads, northern Sweden. 
The 4x4x4 metre cube is accessed by rope bridge and reflects the surrounding forest and sky.
The exterior reflects the surroundings and the sky, creating a camouflaged refuge.
The plywood interior is designed to accommodate two people, containing a double bed, bathroom, living room and roof terrace.
To prevent birds colliding with the reflective glass, a transparent ultraviolet colour is laminated into the glass panes which are visible for birds only.

Dreamtime Alarm Clock
Dreamtime – alarm clock from Vera Wiedermann on Vimeo.
Vera Wiedermann has created a very clever pendant glass alarm clock powered with water.
Resembling a mobile hanging from the ceiling, and consisting of four glass bowls and a hammer, Dreamtime begins when one of the glass containers is filled with water. Water slowly drips overnight into another glass container directly below which, once full, causes a hammer to fall and strike the other two glass bowls.
Says Wiedermann, “Social conventions are defined by time and success. Every day, we are pressured to complete many different tasks. This daily rhythm ignores our need to sleep, and yet it is sleep that makes this rhythm possible. We need to pay closer attention to sleep.”
“By filling the alarm clock with water, we focus our attention on the duration of sleep. The task itself becomes a ritual which positively influences our rest. As opposed to the incessant ticking sound of a regular clock, here time passes silently and purely mechanically. As the drops of water fall, the glass bowl becomes lighter and finally lets the hammer fall. As the tone bounces between the singing bowls, we are gently awakened and a new day begins. Time is something hard to grasp, but sleep is an experience.”
