Rainbows after a drizzle are lovely to look at. So it is with Christian Flindt’s “Parts of a Rainbow” chairs for they are sure to brighten up living spaces with their multitude of hues. His chairs are unusual for they stack sideways unlike most chairs which are added from the top. It is perhaps the first side-stacking chair in the world. The innovative design means you can stack several sideways to form a colourful bench. In fact, by stacking them in a group, the full rainbow effect is achieved which is why Flindt called it “Parts of a Rainbow!” This prototype design won Flindt the 2005 Design Award at the Copenhagen Furniture Fair.

Over the time you’ve seen a lot of bookshelves on Freshome, but what I’ve found today is really impressive. I was browsing Flickr and I found this beautiful example of organizing books by color and the smart guy that managed to do it, is user chotda. This is a very good way of changing the whole aspect of a bookshelf with a little bit of creativity. I guess you’ll have to pay more attention to the book’s cover from now on if you want to reproduce that effect and have your own rainbow bookshelf.
