When it comes to design, small apartments are no longer an issue. We see more and more creative ideas with every passing day and a lot of designers stop and think of the final user’s preferences and possibilities. The Flower table comes from Fatih Can Sarioz, a talented industrial product designer. “Flower” is currently just a concept, but we are looking forward to the possibility of buying this product. Perfect for tight spaces or for some special events that require extra seats, such as a party or someone’s birthday, “Flower” is a must-have furniture item. When you are done using it, just pack it back together and store it in a closet. It is that easy. You can also check out a similar table design that was presented on Fresh Home last year here. – via

This lamp comes from the design graduate Delphine Frey and was her diploma for the University of Art and Design Lausanne in Switzerland. The carbon-fibre lamp has a very interesting shape and the hidden spots create a unique atmosphere. Here are some of Frey’s comments on her project :” This desk lamp or console table lamp was born from the association of two different universes; the softness and elegance of the haute couture pleat meet the rigidity of carbon. It is a subtle mix of two worlds: this object represents the encounter of an ancestral know-how with the latest technology. It was made with the assistance of a Formula One parts supplier.The pleats are not only esthetical, they also add some rigidity to the long and thin structure. In addition, they also hide the leds”. A very intriguing product which makes us look forward to more interesting ideas from young designers.

You thought Star Treck was way ahead of our times? Apparently the movie had yet to inspire designers throughout the world. Sure, the idea of a door that opens only after it does a fingerprint check-up on you was crazy back then, but that does not mean that it makes it less real in the present. “Smart Door” comes from iHouse, a company that invests in creating high-tech housing products. There are three ways you can open this door. Remotely, by sending a command through your PC or advanced mobile phone, through a numeric password or by simply taping the scanner with your finger. All your family members can have access to opening the door, so more fingerprints can be registered. Futuristic and fun, this is guaranteed to keep the burglars away.- via

In search of an interesting, modish and practical light source for your interior? You’re in luck, because we’ve just happen to run past this glowing sconce, a trendy lighting solution that suits your modern apartment. The master of this design is Dan LaBarca from Rezek/Artemide Lighting. Here are some of the manufacturer’s words concerning the usage of the product: “By rotating the front of this wall sconce, the user is able to control the amount of light that is emitted. As one turns the face of the sconce, a splash of light is unleashed onto the wall”.
The maximum amount of light that the sconce emits (this is the case in the last picture) is enough to create a nice, peaceful atmosphere. Controlling the amount of light is this design’s strongest feature, right up there with its creative shape. For purchasing this product, you can contact the designer directly here. – via
