The cube makes a great building block, and a better shelving structure. We&#8217;ve seen them before using various materials and even more varied configurations. The Airsquare designed by Oliver Schick in Germany has a cool factor not achieved by the previous versions (with the exception of the Cubitec, but not completely modular).
The cubes are made [...]]]></description>

The ZigZag coffee table designed by Tsai Design Studio is a modern interpretation of traditional Chinese furniture patterns. The traditional patterns are mostly found as details on window screens and doorframes. Tsai used his eclectic and modern design sense to take the pattern beyond the details and design a table that was the embodiment of [...]]]></description>

Blu Dot Real Good Stool
Who knew origami could be so strong? This powder-coated steel stool ships flat, then folds along laser-cut lines into a high-backed seat that&#8217;s as thin as paper, yet remarkably comfortable. And unlike that origami crane you made in fourth-grade art class, this sturdy little stool promises to keep its shape long [...]]]></description>

It&#8217;s a shelf that doubles as a practical joke.
Imagine walking down a hallway and looking at your phone while answering a text message. Just around a turn, and, out of the corner of your eye, there&#8217;s a shelf coming away from the wall. You jump back in surprise, thinking it&#8217;s going to fall on you. [...]]]></description>
