Rotating Outlet.

Just as I was starting to write this post I realized I’ve developed a sort of fascination with electrical outlets. No, not in a “Wonder what will happen if I just stick this fork…” sort of way. More of a sick obsession with their functionality. My latest? This rotating outlet. Perfect for when you need to plug your hairdryer and cell charger (or anything else with two of those big ‘ol boxy plugs) into the same place at the same time.

Mechano Chairs.

Love how “some assembly required” these Mechano chairs look. I want the bright yellow ones in my kitchen so badly.

the mechano chair was more than likely infuenced by the popular british toy with a similar name. made of durable powder coated steel, the chair is available in colorful blue, red, white, or yellow. we could easily see these for use in cafes or as an accent piece.

Taka Trunk.

Steamer trunks carry an old-fashioned coolness about them that never seems to get old. Add a few drawers and cool storage compartments like this Taka Trunk and you have an incredibly functional piece of furniture that becomes timeless.
