Rafael Morgan’s “UnsTable” is a genial concept table is currently being prototyped in Europe at the Studio Mango but will be manufactured in Brazil by Rafael’s design company VIRA. This table gives the illusion of being a shaky table thanks to the clever use of movable blocks round a stable rod. However the in reality the table is pretty grounded and will not spill or topple anything. This is not the first product from Rafael Morgan that we conver on Freshome, last year we also presented to Hope Table and the Light Drop. - Via - Core77

Today you’ll see a great example of what a woman did with a small piece of land without any “architectural” help: 2 rooms, kitchen, 3 bedrooms with washrooms and a veranda! This narrow house belongs to the lady in yellow - Helenita Queiroz Grave Minho , designed by her. She live in this 1 meter wide by 10 meter tall house in Madre de Deus, Brazil. At first, the municipality refused, but in the end with the plan allowed the construction, that became a touristic spot of the small town of 12 thousand people. I think that this project is a very unique idea and something like this could be designed in big cities where the space is really a problem, but to live daily in a house like this would be exhausting. - Via - Ahboon

I’m looking at this sofa, and I realize that this sofa is not for everybody. You’ll need some space if you are going to buy it. Designed by Joaquim Tenreiro of Brazil, the upholstered chair sits atop an expansive jacaranda frame with green glass tops flanking each armrest. Big, modern and beautiful.

Roberta Rammê from Brazil did an excellent work creating this furniture concept. As you can see from this pictures this furniture combines 3 elements : beauty, comfort, and functionality, and is specially designed for tech-savvy teenagers.

This multifunctional chaise-Longue called Wave Chaise is equipped with a TV, DVD and a music system along with a computer desk in its front. These are just their High Tech characteristics, beside these you can also take a nap, read a book from the little bookcase, study, etc. This furniture concept is inspired by the values and personality of a today’s teenager and the standards generated by a global hi-tech culture of facilities, where the access to technology is cheap and easy.I think that this furniture is something that every teen would want to have in his room.
