I love multi-purpose furniture and the Bingo Pouf is just that. It’s a table that converts to seating/lounging/sleeping furniture in seconds.
“By easily unfolding the Bingo, a full-length sleep surface is created for impromptu guests. High-density foam provides a firm, non-collapsing surface for both seating and sleeping. The upholstery is a weave of wool and synthetic fibers for combined durability and softness.”

Made in Denmark.

Available in red or charcoal.

Constructed of 3 identical pieces of molded plywood, this was designed by Shuichiro Koizumi who worked retail in Offi’s store in Tokyo. He designed the chair and his manager liked it so much that he brought it to the owner of Offi who immediately offered to develop it.

Extra long and nicely narrow, this console has discreet wheels on the legs for mobility. It’s even wide enough to place over a full or queen size bed so you can set your laptop, book, or breakfast (or whatever else) on it and still remain safely snug.

This particular sofa is notable for it’s price as well as the overall shape and style. There’s lots of fabric options to choose from, so that’s nice if you’re not too keen on the mocha-ish color shown. If I had to personally advise you on the quality of this sofa, I’d say it’d be worth the money spent.

To be perfectly honest, when I first saw this, I thought, ” why would anybody need a floating-ish shoe rack?” (notice I said need and not want). Then the other night I came very close to tripping over a couple of silly shoes beside the front door. So, now I understand.

Available in two sizes; one that holds 6 pairs of shoes and also comes with a moveable mirror, or one that holds 3 pairs. Wall mounted, stainless steel.

This is a last minute sale and it says quantities are limited, but I thought this was a great barstool and it’s super cheap!

Update: This item is no longer available through original retailer. (11/19/09)

I like these chairs because they offer the classic elegance similar to Van der Rohe’s Barcelona chairs, but they aren’t as ubiquitous and therefore not as predictable.

They were designed by Poul Kjærholm over the years of 1951 to 1967.

Made of powder coated sheet steel, this table defies normal expectations of structural stability in your bed or sofa’s side table. Conventions need not apply to your home, right?

Okay, what you see here (from left to right) is the Sande Wave Table, the Sande Side Table, and the Sande Mag Bench. Designed and manufactured by David Brunicardi, each piece is made of repeat laminated, eco-friendly plywood from Ecuador. They’re all quite nice- also keep in mind they are hand made, so that’s why there are some zeros on the price tag.

Sande Wave Table $2,200.00
46 L x20 W x15 H

Sande Mag Bench $1750.00
39 L x18 W x13.50 H

Sande Side Table $700.00
24 L x17 W x17 H

Sande Cubes (set of three) $330.00

The tray lifts off and the base is made of polished Nickel. I’m trying to think of why one would need a lift off tray table. Since the top is 36″ x 36″, I think that’s too big to serve any purpose other than cleaning out the tray. Well, it’s a nice table, anyway.

One of my best friends recently purchased a great 60’s home and really modernized it by redoing the kitchen, wall colors and floors without changing the bones of the house (lots of unadorned windows, open floor-plan, etc.) The furnishings are great as well. Each room is layed out perfectly. In her bedroom, she had this great chair with a throw draped over the back. I was sure she dropped about $3000 on it. I asked her where she got it. “Ikea” she said. I was floored. We all know that Ikea furniture is infamous for being identifiable and it’s something that we all try to avoid, but in some instances (as long as you don’t do your entire house in Ikea) it can totally work. This picture doesn’t really do the chair justice. In the right setting, it can fool the snobbiest of furniture snobs.

Now here’s a nice little side chair that would do quite nicely in a living room or office.

Available in leather and microfiber.

The entire Vega line is made to order, delivery time for this item is generally 4-6 weeks.

I love this chest of drawers. It’s made of quickly growing bamboo, so that can make us all feel good about purchasing it. And another cool thing is that the drawers open with a push latch: press and they slide toward you.

The Risom Lounge Chair (1941) is the first chair to be designed for Knoll. Even better, it comes with the GREENGUARD™ certification for sustainable materials and manufacturing.

Each piece is stamped with the KnollStudio logo and the designer’s signature.

Well, there’s a lot to say about this (as there usually is about sleeper sofas), but I’m not going to go on and on about it- if you like the looks of it, I trust that you’ll visit DWR to read about the history and details. I’m mostly here to say, “hey, look at this, it’s a sleeper sofa and it doesn’t look too bad”. The back bolster pillow adjusts to three different positions so your lower lumbar will be happy and it’s slipcovered so you can remove it for cleaning.
