Lay Flat Office Chair Knows How to Take a Break

We've shown you quite a few interesting chairs lately and we have even seen a chair that can help you exercise while at work. But what about a chair that truly knows how to help you take a break? Such an office furniture item is the Lay Flat office chair, which can be easily transformed into an improvised sleeping solution. Whether you're working at home or you drive down to the same office building every day, we don't encourage you to go to sleep when you should be working. But if you happen to pull long hours on a regular basis this Lay Flat office chair could be exactly what the doctor order. Pull it up, take a quick nap, and then either go home or do some more work! The Lay Flat office chair will cost you around $600 so maybe your direct superior won't agree with this particular purchase. Oh, and if you do get it, remember it's got wheels, so sleep carefully!

Cartesio Cristalplant Freestanding Tub By Agape

The Cartesio Cristalplant Freestanding Tub by Agape showcases how creativity can be infused into any realm of design without taking away its primordial properties. The spacious rectangular tub leans towards contemporary design elements and meshes technology, functionality and design flawlessly. For the uninitiated, " Cristalplant" is a "chronologically advanced composite material constituted by a high percentage of natural materials and a small percentage of extremely pure polyester and acrylic polymers". This basically means it's non-toxic and boasts of enhanced hygienic properties. The modern bathtub is also available in other incarnations and one can also opt for the more traditional materials like oak or teak in their choice of finish. With its thoughtful design and sleek form factor, the Cartesio Cristalplant Freestanding Tub is a lush commemoration of modern aesthetics.

Lampada Lamp Is Thinner Than Thin But Still Lights Up the Place

Lampada stands for lamp in Italian and that's exactly what this thing happens to be, a lamp. But the Lamapada Lamp is far more impressive than regular lamps. While it still lights up the place around it the Lampada Lamp has a very unique feature, it is just 4 millimeter thick. The Lampada is available in two versions, a table lamp and a floor lamp and they are both equally thin. Don't worry about the Lampada being able to stand straight as both lamp versions have enough support to prevent them from tumbling down. And just to make things even easier you could decide to mount these light sources right on the wall and never worry about them falling over. Via Show & Tell Design

Starry Starry Nights

The term "Starry Night" instantly conjures up images of artist Vincent van Gogh magnum opus the Starry Night painting. And something tells me Gogh would be impressed by the etherial quality of the Starry Night Light had he been alive today. Conceptualized by Dr. Lin Hui-Hsiung, Huang Shao-Wei, Chiang Chung-Kai and Yang Wen-Hsun, this energy efficient lighting solution seeks to recreate the infinity of a starlit sky that twinkles mysteriously and peacefully uplifts with its sublime beauty. This hypnotic light has been made from a transparent light-collecting module which stores light energy from the lighted bulb and then turns it into electricity. This in turn powers the battery to light up the LED lights and create a mesmerizing effect.

Starry Nights.
