I was going to rewrite the lyrics to “The Star Spangled Banner” but decided against it. It’s better that way. For the both of us. But yeah! Wow! What a bookshelf, right? Staying true to the lower 48, this United States of Readmerica bookshelf is awesome. It was made by Ron Arad and is titled “Oh, the farmer and the ...

If you’re trying to teach your kids how to tell time, the Redundant Clock, designed by Ji Lee, is likely the last product you should be looking towards for assistance (though we’ve seen some pretty unhelpful candidates). I was debating whether or not to actually write a detailed description for this clock, but that would be rather redundant, don’t you ...

Have parents begging to relive the ’60s with a dash of 21st century technology? Then get them this funky pillow. It has a built-in MP3 player with speakers and comes in the shape of a boombox, cellphone or guitar. They come in tye dye coloring, so if you’re trying to keep it classy, don’t go looking here.

The Screw Chair. It sounds like some sort of forbidden BDSM device. And it could probably be used as one, given the right people and setting. But, luckily, sado-masochism is not its derived purpose.

Along with his four edible friends; ...

No matter the cost, you can always build something bigger and better. Such is the case with a set of new apartments in Chelsea. 200 11th Avenue will get an in-house car elevator that ...

We’ve seen various other engine table designs strewn across the internet. Most are pretty much just a full-sized engine with a piece of glass glued to the top of it. Some call that awesome, we call it lazy. This design, though, is the classiest-styled permutation of an engine table that we’ve come across, inspired more from the days of hotrodding ...

Prefer a Coat of Arms over a peacoat? Rayguns over the mighty handgun? We feel you. Your love of Steampunk culture is what keeps the DIY movement going and DVD sales of Blade Runner high. If you’re sick of turning electronics and computers into Steampunk creations, try giving your dishwasher the tile treatment. With a little brass and handiwork, your ...

What’s that? Did you say your sister-in-law is a decorator? Oh, that’s cute. Good to know, but see, I won’t be needing your services. No, no, my good pal Eva came by and I handed her $1100 and said “Organize my space!” Well after a trip to IKEA and several hours, she was done. The result is a living room ...
