These pieces of furniture which aren’t practical shelving space, are called Dust Furniture and are designed by craft artist Vincent Thomas Leman. Vincent’s work has been described as ‘abstract traditional furniture.’ Each piece is essentially a traditional piece of furniture that is stretched, curved, stacked and stepped to fit his design intentions. While wood is the material employed to make his furniture, Vincent considers his actual medium to be ‘traditional furniture.’ The classical root of each piece helps maintain its identity as furniture and keeps the work familiar and approachable despite the unusual shapes. Environmental integrity is also very important to Dust Furniture.

They take care to use biodegradable packing peanuts during the packaging process, to avoid adding to the landfills. They also use waterborne urethane to coat the furniture, which is a gentle, high quality alternative to some very strong chemicals. One of their mottos is “We like to think that we’re changing the world… one piece of fun, American handcrafted furniture at a time.” Finnaly I don’t think that to many people would buy a piece of furniture like this, but at least you saw an interesting piece of furniture today.

This contemporary bookcase from Dar en Art that looks like a snowflake is something really interesting, especially if you want a bookcase that has an original design. In this picture the white design with clean lines, near that green plant, and that white & blue chair looks awesome, I hope that in reality this bookcase will look the same. This piece has a diameter of 140cm and is available in white or black, and provides a creative method for the organization of your items. Pricing is available upon request at Dar en Art. – Via
Later edit : The designer of this bookcase ( Younes ) is actually a reader of this blog, and left a comment and asked me to link to his website, and I’m glad to do this for him. Thanks again Younes from Extru-D !

I’m pretty sure that most people don’t have apartments large enough so they can have their own gym at home. Now a solution for having a “little gym” in your home come from Postfossil that has a new line called Sports Furniture that looks promising. The sports furniture collection is primarily intended to maintain physical fitness at home but is at the same time a furniture collection that easily blends into the living space. The collection consists of a pull-up-bar, mat, bench, skipping rope and a cup. The bench is a stylish wood bench with storage for other equipment and sturdy enough to workout on. The pull-up bar looks like a piece of sculpture, I mean it’s not hard to look at and more attractive than those doorway mounted pull-up bars. – Via

Spending money on new furniture to build our comfortable and convenient interior space may not be an option for those with little cash on their hand. They usually opt for used furniture, but it has a few drawbacks. How should we value, search and inspect it, is crucial so here are five tips you should consider for a wise buying decision.

- Inspecting furniture – This is the first thing you should consider, because condition is the most important aspect in determining value. If you want to make sure your furniture is not going to fall apart in the next couple of months don’t buy on impulse. Instead, take your time and inspect each piece thoroughly. If it’s made of quality wood, with good joints and a good bonding glue you’re going to buy the furniture with confidence, not with fear.
- Use it first – Since you won’t be able to see the most important parts, you should test the furniture first. Lean on tables and tip back chairs. If it’s a sofa make sure the frame is not altered so go ahead, squeeze the arms and chairs and even extend it to make sure those metallic parts are working fine.
- Know your space – The size of the rooms and the dimensions of the entrances or the stairs are extremely important facts you should be aware of, if you don’t want to keep the furniture in your garage. You’re paying real money so better check if you can put it in and if it fits well with your other pieces.
- Have a budget – If you want to be a wise shopper then having a budget and sticking to it, is essential. Make your plan and decide how much you can afford to pay for each item and negotiate down to the last dollar. Also, don’t forget the delivery cost. See if the seller provides delivery and if not, make sure that when you add it to the total cost it’s a good number that you can afford.
- Where to find bargains – Yes, it is possible to decorate your room even if it’s with used furniture, but where can we find the best prices? There are bargains galore at garage sales, flea markets, online auctions, local consignment stores, junk stores, rental furniture outlets, salvage yards, warehouse outlet sales and local real estate auctions. Check them all to see what are the prices and then choose what you need.
Buying used furniture is not a simple decision as many think, but following the steps above will sure get you a very good deal that you’ll be happy with.
