Cinema Bed by Josh Spear
The Via Ruf Betten Cinema Bed takes this home multimedia craze to another level. For $20,000 you get a complete home theater system at the foot of your bed that is remote controlled and collapsible right into the footboard. A shelf for the projector behind your head, and compartments for all your components. Very retro in design and execution, very german. A plasma or LCD version would woo me in more, I'm not such a huge fan of projectors, but I do dig the idea here.

Laidback by Das Ding
The "Laidback" sofa, with its exaggerated proportions and skew angles, is a tricky new design from Belgian studio Das Ding. This oversized furnishing's super-high arm rests and upwardly-sloped seats make it both attractive and visually unique. Only the "two-seater" model is currently available, but, despite its name, this high-volume sofa can easily seat up to four. Its unusual depth provides room for its occupants...

Sonno Mattress
Before I even get in to the details, just understand the beauty of this mattress is in the packaging and shipping. Over the weekend I helped a friend assemble a new bed from DWR. Among the many packages was a very dense roll that was labeled Sonno Prima, the name of the mattress he had ordered. We looked at it with confidence that there...

Living in a Box
Last year, German design firm Transalpin conceived a way to pass electricity through wood and named it Wood.e. The 12V current doesn't actually pass though the wood; there's conductive material layered in to the plywood. This year, they created Living In a Box (above) as an example of how this innovative material could be applied. Normally separate pieces, chairs, tables, lamps and shelves, are...
