As an animal lover, I completely detest pet cages. However its hard not to like these dog crates by Den Haus, which also doubles as house furniture. No more clashing of the dogbed with your tastefully done home.

Now here is a piece of furniture that truly rocks (metaphorically and figuratively). The Double Rocker ensures that you have a “rocking” time with your close friends and family by giving a modern twist to the traditional rocking chair. Looks like designer Brian Lee was inspired by sea-saws.

First I hear about Seinfeld featuring in Microsoft ads and now I come across this MS Windows inspired creation. Is Microsoft finally turning cool? Well I am sure Mac fanboys (and fangirls in my case) will beg to differ but that’s not the point. Check out the Fenestra 3.1 Windows by French designer John Nouanesing which seeks to replicate the Windows OS on a wall.

Personally I have never been able to solve the Rubik cube hence my complete delight to come across the Rubik’s Cube Alarm Clock with Thermometer. Twist the top row, and the display changes between time, temperature, alarm or date. You can order it from here.

Alarm clocks are so passé especially when one can get their hands on the Life Clock. Not for the vain this one keeps a track of your life. More specifically the clock’s numbers represents years elapsed since birth. Designed by Bertrand Planes, the clock is a reminder on how time passes us by and teaches us not to take life for granted.

We here at Bedzine give Kevin Hassler a big thumbs for creating an airplane bed modeled after a U.S. Air Force Thunderb Hassler. Hassler did it for his 3 year old son and even hand-painted “Lt. Commander Brody Hassler, a.k.a. ‘Brodmeister which is his son’s nickname.

The father used the following materials: 18-inch bendable plywood for sides, wood and fiberglass (front of plane) and insulated foam board (to hold shape under fiberglass nose cone)

Hushamok Hammock

Who needs cribs with the modern styled baby hammocks available in the market today? The Hushamok Hammock does indeed look trendy and fashionable for the modern child and with its stylish features, it seems that a baby can be put to sleep better with its design.

It has been advised to keep the baby away from their folks to avoid being among the victims of SIDS and with this trendy design, you are not only changing baby sleep practices but employing a modern and stylish look inside our bedroom.

The design of Hushamok is certainly something to look at; the stylish stand would be at home in any room and is available in lightweight aluminum, sustainable European beech or lightweight steel. The hammock is made of 100% organic cotton, is machine-washable and comes in a dazzling array of colors including bright green, orange and pink. A unique feature is the patented leaf spring which connects the hammock to the stand and once baby is inside, gently sways with a natural motion to help lull baby into the land of nod.

Other design elements of the Hushamok include a slight elevation at head level which helps to prevent acid reflux and the snug design together with the gentle swaying motion of the hammock may help prevent colic in some babies. Flat-head syndrome can also be avoided by putting babies to sleep on their backs.
