Secret Movie Projection Area Also Doubles as a Neat Reading Area
Your passion for movies and books will be united by this particular room design. The TV screen you see in the first picture is actually a projection screen that will show you all your favorite movies. Behind it there’s a special room that hides a bookshelf filled with your favorite books and a projector needed to offer you all that movie rear-projecting you want. In order to create such a home theater setup you’d need a pretty big room to accommodate that dividing projection wall and all the other elements needed for this home entertainment setup to work. Not to mention all the neat seating solutions required by both the multimedia section of the room and by the reading area. Via Minhembio

Treecycled Furniture’s ‘Expose’ Series Emits A Glow In The Dark Effect

Treecycled Furniture’s ‘Expose’ Series Emits A Glow In The Dark Effect
At a recent visit to a friends family home, I came across glow in the dark bed sheets, something which I have never seen. Goes without saying I was enthralled and showed a child like fascination towards it. Before you start questioning my tastes, let me assure you that I have no plans of getting them, though I was tempted I must admit. The Treecycled Furniture’s ‘Expose’ series works on the same principle but instead of glow paint, it uses clever LED lights. Treecycled Furniture believes in the principles of reclaim and recycle and hence have worked with rotten teak to make to highlight the company ethics. By filling the wood cavities with LED lights and using non-toxic Rubio Monocoat oil, the Expose series is quirky, whimsical and looks almost surreal.

Bruno Mathsson Furniture Gallery Exhibit

Bruno Mathsson Furniture Gallery Exhibit
The retrospective exhibition “Bruno Mathsson: Architect and Designer,” opening today at The Bard Graduate Center, consists of approximately 150 examples of furniture, photographs, architectural drawings and models installed chronologically on three floors. It’s a show that starts strong but peters out halfway through, a strikingly accurate metaphor of Mathsson’s own unstable projection as a designer over the course of the 20th century.

For the most part, Mathsson’s designs are solid, though far from ground breaking. They split the difference between inspired form and dutiful function, between a traditionally trained cabinetmaker’s desire to tinker and perfect, with design ideas distilled from more radical pioneers such as Marcel Breur, Alvar Aalto, Le Corbusier and the earlier example of Thonet. Mathsson was one of the main proponents of the Swedish Modern style that emerged in the 1930′s, and his pieces incorporate its distinctive characteristics, such as lightweight organic materials, use of clean simple lines, and a lack of overstyling — qualities echoed in the restrained, well-balanced, uniform nature of Swedish society itself. However, most of his designs fail to transcend the innovation of their construction, and are held firmly in the realm of technical prowess, disallowing them to become more essential design statements.
