The use of the boring old wooden headboards has really gone by the wayside in favor of attractive gothic-inspired Wrought Iron Beds. They really bring an elegance of design that other types of beds do not allow for. Although you may be hesitant to try something new, you will not be disappointed with this great look.

The materials used in this bed are quite durable and long-lasting and would look great in a bedroom of an adult or a mature teenager.

Yu-Ying Wu’s “breathing chair” aka the Tofu Chair stuns you with its mind-boggling design and the fact that the designer has used something as ordinary as foam!

A great modern look is upholstered headboards. The best part about a Tufted Upholstered Headboard is that they are so comfortable against your head and back when you are sitting up in bed. Have you ever tried to sit up in bed to read a book and had to constantly fidget with the pillows behind your head and neck? You never really do get comfortable do you? That’s why this kind of headboard is not only nice to look at, but will be a godsend for your comfort level.

One company that has a great selection of modern headboards is Skyline Furniture. They have been in business since 1948 and have stayed current through the decades to bring you the best looks in bedroom furniture. Some of their items have been featured on television, including HGTV and Extreme Makeover: Home Edition. You know these are quality works if they are being sought after by design experts like those.

Of their substantial collection, one of their great pieces is the Lazuli Tufted Headboard. It is made of premier fabric and comes in a variety of colors to match your décor: black, chocolate, oatmeal, saddle (a light brown), khaki, red, sage, or purple. The frame of this wooden headboard is made from pine and covered in foam padding before being topped with the fabric. One great thing about the fabric is that it can actually be cleaned with a vacuum. This is helpful if your feline or canine friends like to snuggle up to the headboard, too, on occasion.

I’ve always preferred open desks over cubicles whether that be for work or for home but this Cocoon Desk might just change my mind about that as its “cocoon”-like design helps you focus on real work instead of being distracted with other things in your (work) room.

Well, I know they have something similar to this over in South Korea, where they have “study” libraries. These are not really libraries but a rent-able space for students who want to focus on study. They have similar desks like this except not as well designed. For one, these might sell like hotcakes in Korea if they went into production.



The idea behind Rewrite began as a study of the desktop and especially an atmosphere and feeling we believe is needed even in the middle of an accelerating communication and technology. Rewrite is thought of as a kind of isolating working bubble, that can work as a satellite desk anywhere one can feel the need of concentration and shielding – in open space offices, public spaces or at home. With its rounded shape it can be placed freely as dots in a room. A private base in the group without being a denial of it, but an addition to it causing an alternative.


For the people agog over Tetris, here is a chair that you can put into your home.

furniture made out of k’nex has always fascinated me, that’s what motivated me to make this chair out of k’nex.


Yu-Ying Wu, a Taiwanese designer, creates a new Tofu Chair based on the traits of a real tofu. The Tofu chair turns into a super-comfy chair once your guest sits in it then turns into a block of tofu when not in use.

I see some great applications to this type of Tofu Chair designs, especially there’s also some “breathing” room for air to pass through. I would really like to get one, can I order it now please?

The “breathing chair” looks like a piece of white, square tofu. Wu said that the chair is made of high-density foam plastic that is 100 percent environmentally-friendly. There is a “trick” behind the design of various sizes of holes in the chair – based on professional calculation of the spatial structure, the tofu-shaped chair, coated with three layers of foamed plastic, can “automatically adjust” according to the weight and posture of the person sitting on it.


Having a good portable guest bed can be crucial to making your friend feel at home.

The Duality kitchen design delivers two options: a traditional wall piece or a detached kitchen island suited to your architecture and your style. Primary offers all the luxury of a great kitchen, only on a compact scale. Just because your home is “cozy” doesn’t mean you have to compromise on style.

Is your dining table looking empty? How about adding some flare to it by making one of these Super Mario Brothers themed baskets? Not only will your kids love this, you can use it to hide candy and other sweets as reward for your kids doing their homework.

Halloween last year I completely forgot about the baskets until the night we went out. I ended up just using an orange bucket we had laying around. This year I wanted something that matched the costumes that we were making. For Yoshi I decided to do an egg for his basket, and for Baby Mario a Super Mushroom.

Many people were surprised when the Asian influence started taking over much of North America. Suddenly we went from having very few oriental items available to purchase, to having a large bundle of them. Why is this? Some designers believe that it is because the East was closed to tourism for so long. Because of this the world didn’t get to see the modern and simple pieces that were found all over Asia, and because we didn’t get to see them, we did not know to implement them in our homes. Now, thankfully, you can find Asian pieces available in every type of furniture, from dining room table sets to Wooden Daybeds.

The Hudson Daybed Trundle is a great example of how a good designer can take a simple item like a wooden daybed and can transform it into something that has a little touch of Asian flair to it. This piece of contemporary bedroom furniture features sloped sideboards that gently slide down, giving it a little Asian touch, as well as slight curves on the back of the daybed as well. With the dark Espresso finish, this daybed is one that will match almost any room and any existing décor.

Created by the well-known Fashion Bed Group, this trundle daybed comes complete with a link spring, which is ideal for homes that need to have as much extra bed space as possible. With this daybed you can fit not only one extra person, but two, making it easy to plan for unexpected guests
