Intelligent Small Space Furniture Solutions

It’s been said that the best things come in small packages, and as budgets shrink and living spaces decrease in size to accommodate necessity, small space furniture is in higher demand than ever. A little creativity can go a long way, as evidenced by this inventive array of solutions for a reduction in square footage (or the simple need to clear away clutter and make more effective use of existing space). These work-life combinations are more cozy than crowded and, quite frankly, just as smart as they are small.

Quite the Climb: Amazing Modern Staircases

Let’s all be thankful that after eating far more turkey, stuffing and mashed potatoes than anyone ever really should, most of us don’t have to climb a never-ending series of steps to crawl into bed for a midwinter’s nap. In homage to the act of burning calories, though — something we’ll all get to… oh, perhaps tomorrow or the next day — we present six amazing modern staircases, each a work of art on its own. Every one in the collection is a critical study in balance and form; cantilevers and helix shapes dominate the currently flotation-obsessed landscape of contemporary stairs, causing more than a moment or two of hesitation before most step onto them in real life. These optical illusions may require a strong leap of faith along with each timid step, but we’re willing to bet the view from the top is completely worth the climb.

Everyone could use a little privacy now and then, and regardless of whether you live in a vast, open floor plan or a tiny little loft space, blessed solitude can be difficult to come by. Today’s collection of artful modern room dividers provides something beautiful to look at while you’re enjoying a moment of silence; each piece lends a visually arresting creative touch to your home while ensconcing you in your own personal space apart from flatmates and family. From a simple undulating wooden screen courtesy of design icons Charles and Ray Eames to a build-it-yourself series of cellular partitions from Edelweiss Industrial Design Studio, the options for boldly or quietly claiming your space are limitless — and, really, often rather beautiful.

12 Beautiful And Modern Public Libraries

Even though I heart my Kindle, nothing can replace my love for books and libraries. There is something wonderfully inviting yet imposing about libraries and for me its easy to get lost in the world of Hemingway, Tolstoy and Jane Austen. However the traditional library has made way for the more contemporary successor and listed below are some of the most beautiful modern libraries.

UC San Diego’s Geisel Library

The Baiyun Mountain of Books

The Andre Malraux Library

Public Library for Lodz designed by Maciek Grelewicz

The National Library of Belarus With LED Display

Modern Library University at Tokyo Japan by Toyo Ito

The Idea Store Whitechapel in London

Seattle Public Library’s Central Library

The Czech National Library

Black Diamond at the Royal Library Copenhagen

Philadelphia’s Parkway Central Library

The Best Toaster Oven With Convention And Defrost

How can we resist something that is called “The Best Toaster Oven”. Tall claims? Maybe, but in all fairness any appliance that can help us whip up delicious installments of chicken, pizza, and cookies quickly, does get our attention. Described by The Wall Street Journal as capable of doing “just about everything we use the oven for,” the Best Toaster Oven’s maintains a constant cooking temperature and has nine settings–designed for specific foods (pizza, bagel, cookies). The 1800-watt oven broils, cooks with convection, and defrosts at the touch of a button and the oven also features an easy-to-read LCD. Available on Hammacher for $249.95, the Best Toaster Oven can also accommodate a 12″ pizza or six pieces of toast. Yum!

Straight from the Canadian Museum of Flight in Langley, British Columbia comes the cylinder radial engine base of this phenomenal coffee table. It doesn’t get much simpler or more fascinating than a sheet of glass balanced atop a historic piece of aviation used in WWII, displayed in the middle of a conversation space for all to admire. Obviously, it isn’t every day you can just casually set your latte down on top of – and, for that matter, stare straight into the soul of — a late-1930s US Army Boeing-Stearman PT-13, but it became possible at the Decoratum Gallery in London, where the piece recently went on display (not to mention on sale for a mere £19,750).
