In these days some architects can create amazing buildings, and to give an example here it is a building named Shiro, that is a hair salon in Fukui,Japan, made by architects 1980/Takuya Hosokai + Hiromasa Mori. The design is simple, and with a very eye-catching look. Great outlines, unusual angles with a little tension, and ’sharp’ is sure to add meaning to their hair dressing services! This building was finished in 2006 as the designers say, and I hope that today is not to dirty, because that white look can be destroyed very quickly but the level of pollution in these days. - Via

The NNI HAUS is designed by Akitoshi Ukai (AUAU) and is located in Kiyosu, Japan . This residence is built in the northwest of a block. It is the house of an L type plan built to the minimum site. A white wall makes a cut in one sheet of paper, and is bent and made according to the form of a block. Complicated form is produced though it is a simple technique in doing so. If this residence is seen walking along outside, the form is changed slowly. A great example of modern architecture, but as I can see from the picture there is only a small windows, so I think is quite dark inside, and the white color might look good, but only a while because the pollution will make it darker very quickly.

In conclusion this is not just only a table, is also an interesting sculpture that was transformed into an interesting table. If you are interested in this table the price is $225,00 and you can purchase it from here.

In these days anything can be personalized, from cars to houses. But let’s not forget little things that can have their own unique design. Like this cord that now has some “life”, and some personality. This cord was made in Japan by CubeWorks and Maywa Denki. And you can purchase it in two colors (white/black) from here with $28.50.

This flexible cord patterned after a fish skeleton! 1.2 meters long (nearly 4 feet), the tail portion plugs into any wall socket, and you plug your appliance into the head. When connected, the eyes have an unearthly glow!
