One of our popular stories was the Suspended Bed by Housefish where a unique bed was showcased for our readers. Another great product from Housefish is the Key modular storage units. These units come in fun colors and easily stack together. Now, one of the things I like about this product is that it is quality made. Many pieces on the market will simply break down or even topple over on you if you are not careful. These units are made from real wood and have nice visual appeal. The modular aspect is not that it is cheaply made, but that there is flexibility in creating your own design to meet your home's storage needs. More information: here. Note: the pig in the third picture is not included with purchase!

The inflow table is a unique product from Animi Causa that has the capability of securely holding objects in place. The table is made of 1,000 meters of elastic string that is wound around a metal table. You can see in the second picture how the wine glass and other items are being secured by the string. I am certain that the manufacturing labor behind the inflow table is great when you consider the effort of getting string around the table. Price: $2,285. Product can be found: here.

I recently received notice of this new product called the "Shed Coat Hook" from Utility Design" in the United Kingdom. My first question to readers is, "what are your first impressions?" I must say that it is certainly different and reminds me of a small cottage in its shape. Its design purpose is to offer more than just a "hang up" place, but one where you can store keys, letters, and other things you may need before you leave the home. Shed is made of powder coated metal and comes in orange, gray, or white. Price: £8. Buy product: here. Tell me what you think.
