A House to Dwelle In.


There is something about tiny living spaces that make me shiver in architectural wonder. Then, don't even get me started on the structural wonders of prefab. Say what? This house by Dwelle is both a prefab, tiny, AND minimalist. Whoa.


WTF! It's 'green' too. Click here or here to see more pictures.

Sexy Light Bulbs.

Yes, light bulbs apparently can be sexy.

Finally some pretty energy efficient bulbs! These stunning specimens of illumination by Hulger are not yet available in the US but they will be. (Then we shall see if they are affordable...)

Infinite Creativity.


The notebook that won't let you get writer's block because it keeps going and going and going and.. you get the idea. It's so purely white that it just begs to be doodled one, screams out for multiple color pens, pines for stickers, and lusts after a range of writing utensils. It's almost scandalous.

So if you like to write or sketch or just deface pretty white paper you should head over to DBA!

For Fancy Rats.


(technically the rodent pictured is a gerbil...)

If you love design and hate to see adorable little mice and rats with broken necks/backs, stuck to sticky paper, or poisoned then Aakash Dewan has the answer!


(Aww look how cute it is holding that wee little bit o' cheese!)

"As supplies come in from throughout the world, the shipping pallets for those supplies can be erected to make walls, ceilings, and floors. By covering these structures in locally-sourced finishing materials it is possible to create a quality shelter that will stand long enough for families to build permanent housing."

It's another structure built out of shipping pallets! I Beam's sustainable emergency center was originally designed as temporary housing for refugees of the Baltic War, but is now being considered as a solution to the problem of housing people displaced by natural disaster, plagues, famine, political/economic strife, or war.

[PS is anyone else wondering what the heck that awesomeness in the background is?]

Ship This.


(The Urban Farm via Inhabitat)

The design world continues to amaze me with its ability to turn something ugly (or at least not pretty) like shipping pallets into a beautiful structure like the above or the sleek chair below.

A "Green" Morsel...

that could earn you some green!

I just heard about this site, You Renew, and that it really does work.


As in... you send in your things and you actually will receive a check in exchange. (or recycle your goodies if they have no more value for free! nice.)
