Crutch

It seems a shame that a tabletop has two sides, but only one ever gets used. The ability to use both sides of a tabletop opens up many possibilities: the sides could have differing laminates, one could be wipeable, one could be 'Sunday best', and so on. A clever concept, called 'Crutch' uses a standard 'leg' and staps to create a stable surface. It should also be possible to use non-regular shapes, I guess.

Update: Another variation on the theme here.

Chairs

So many chairs, so little money. My favourite of many, the Lola, is featured in the beautiful joint detail shown here.

Magnets

A little old now, but just stumbled upon this again. It is a magnetic curtain, which allows for some striking sculptural possibilities, due to the way the grid of magnets engages when it is scrunched.

Big Knitting

So, my wife Sally likes knitting - chunky knitting. How about some knitted furniture then, love? (via Bauke Knotterus)
