A Daydream Table with Trap Doors
0 Comments Published by brian yalung May 21st, 2008 in Livingroom, Table, Tips & Tricks.
Here is a snazzy coffee table that can be placed in two different ways; with or without vases. Taking this cool concept in mind, we all know that people would want something to spice up their living room. Some would want a bare table while others would want some vases on it.
The Daydream table looks like an ordinary shabby chic coffee table but it hides multiple trap doors for included vases that can go on top or down below - depending on your needs. Nothing I dislike more than being lazy on a Sunday afternoon on my couch with a bunch of vases blocking my view. Instead of angrily pushing them all to the floor, now they’re neatly tucked away. Out of sight, out of mind.

Using Twitter for Room Light Control

With the proper connections, a mobile phone can send a simple text message to a computer and turn off the lights. Well, it’s an innovative way of trying to innovate your light controls but the fact remains that the idea is really something to consider.

Using Twitter, a new social networking site, you can set up your laptop and connect it to your light switches (or any other electrical device) and control the device by sending text messages to your twitter account. It’s a fairly simple setup using this software which controls this hightech lightswitch (which is suprisingly affordable)
