When decorating or re-decorating a home, how many of us think of the truly overlooked interior elements: the light switches? Some homes may have decorative switch plates, but most still have the same plain up-and-down plastic switches.
Elo switches, distributed by French company Realitem, are gorgeous wall switches that are enough to make any room shine. The ultra-stylish fixtures come in a variety of finishes, but each is smooth, round and unlike any other wall switches.
The gorgeous Elo hardware is also available as sockets, two-way switches and push buttons. All of them are infinitely more stylish and eye-catching than those white plastic rectangles found in almost every house today.

Functional Origami: Double-Duty Living Room Component

[ Filed under Transforming & in the Furniture category ]
There is probably not a single home out there that couldn’t use some extra seating once in a while. Or an extra flat surface for piling things on. This ingenious chair from designer Benoit Lienart is both – but never at the same time.
The transforming Sweetch18 is a slick armchair that doubles as a coffee table. Or it it a coffee table that doubles as a chair? Either way you say it, this simple piece of transforming furniture does double duty.
With just a simple push or pull of the tabletop/chair back, the piece easily slides between one state and the other. There are no complex latches or puzzle-like maneuvering – just an intuitive folding motion that is rather reminiscent of furniture origami.

TOOB System Brings IMAX To The Family Living Room
Posted by itsonlychand in Daily update on January 13, 2012
That’s TOOB for ‘Think Out of Box’, and the latest from the company is TOOB Earth. It’s a relatively new variant of a dome display scaled down for personal/home use. But wait, it’s not just for entertainment. According to the makers, what they’ve developed so far could enjoy applications in different settings. Although the whole system looks like a lot of furniture jammed together, the resulting platform–which would do real sweet for hardcore gaming–looks like a cockpit.

Child-Created Living Room Art via 1000s of Colored Stickers

[ Filed under Living & Dining & in the Interiors category ]
Instead of cleaning up after they crayon the walls, why not see what happens if you hand the kids a few thousand colorful dots and let things evolve from there?
That is precisely what artist Yayoi Kusama did at the Queensland Gallery of Modern Art – after he turned every last furnishing, fixture, wall and ceiling space in this faux living room into stark-white canvas to really let the subsequent work shine forth.
Incoming children were handed stickers and told to put them wherever they wanted – what unfolded is (surprisingly) almost more controlled than chaotic … at least up to a point. (Images by Mark Sherwood & Stuart Addelsee).
