Bank in the Form of a Pig by Harry Allen

First to recommend

Description

Ok, a little morbid, but read the whole thing:

For his "Reality" series, Allen cast this suckling pig that died of natural causes. The resin cast captures each detail from the smooth nose to the tiny tail. With a slot in its back and a cork in its belly, this "piggy bank" is an amalgam of the decorative and useful. $10 of every sale is donated to the humane society.

Mostly, I like the cork in the belly. I'm not so sure about thinking of dead baby pigs every time I see it.

Chatou by h2o Architectes

First to recommend

Description

After seeing a different work/sleep/play station, also by h2o Architects (http://www.thisnext.com/item/F27316E9/A9CDE650/Eva-s-Bed-by-h2o-Architectes), I stumbled across this configuration that I like even better. I want an adult-sized version.

"Arranged on four split levels, the 12m² building is intended for a teenager to live within the garden of the family home.

"Here’s some information from the architects:

"This little building, located in the owner’s backyard, was neglected for years. The aim of the project was to provide a private space for a teenager looking for his independence. Therefore, the program includes elements necessary for an autonomous life including sleeping, living, studying and washing. It had been decided between the parents and teenager that meals would still be a shared time in the family home." -Dezeen (via Dezeen)

Crayon rings by Timothy Liles

4 people recommended this item

Description

If I put one on each finger, I could draw some pretty awesome things. Or punch someone. But, I'd just draw because it is nice and punching isn't. Price is for a set of 8.

Stack (Drawers) by Shay Alkalay

First to recommend

Description

"Stack is a tower of 'floating' drawer units that can be pushed and pulled in both directions. This will often result in a random and irregular formality that is both fascinating and unusual to the eye. Stack is available with 8 or 13 drawers."

Great colors and awesome silhouette. (Love the lightish blues in each of them) (via Better Living Through Design)

I like juice, milk and water. So, I don't think I'd ever use this. But I might buy one just to look at. (via Design*Sponge)
