Lounging Sound Pillow by Ami Kealoha
Worst part about throw pillows and cushions? Sure they're a good head rest, but they muffle sound and make hearing the TV hard. Enter the Lounging Pillow. This cube-shaped cotton/poly cushion has holes in each of its six sides. When you plop your noggin on it for some serious coach potato action, sound can enter through any of the four unobstructed open spaces. Meaning? This pillow has directional sound! Retailing for ¥1,600 ($13), the Lounging Pillow comes in red and navy. Being lazy has never been this good.

Galen Trezise Crocheted Cozies
From the newly-opened Look boutique in SF, these handmade cozies have all the warm appeal of a sweater grandma made with an offbeat Dr. Seuss shape. According to the site, they're intended for vases but we think they'd be well-suited for dressing up a different household object that holds water and plant matter. With unusual colorways, ruffles and perforated weaves, they also hold their...

Mystic Wall Clock
The Mystic Wall Clock is a quiet addition to the new crop of products on Personal Interior Design, the Swedish internet shop. With no numbers and barely discernible hands, it's certainly not the most efficient timepiece. But what it lacks in logical components, it makes up for in eeriness. Designed by Matt Carr for Umbra, the clock's hazy finish lends an ethereal notion to...

Limited Edition Alessi Wire Baskets from MoMA
Alessi's classic wire basket has graced the counters and tables of the terminally chic since its debut in 1951.

The Alessi square red wire basket ($110) and round yellow wire basket ($85) are available exclusively from the...

Riedel Decanters
New from the generations-old family glassware-makers Riedel, this series of decanters takes its inspiration from birds for a collection that's as striking as it is functional. Designed by Maximillian Riedel (also responsible for leading the stemless revolution) and his father Georg and handmade by artisans in their Austrian factory, the leaded crystal vessels are all aerodynamic lines and dramatic dimensions. While the Swan (above...

Bottoms Up Doorbell
A winner of a Red Dot award last year, Peter van der Jagt's Bottoms Up Doorbell is perhaps one of the best examples of repurposed objects we've come across. It's no surprise that it comes from the fertile Dutch collective that is Droog, circa 1994. A magnet (which adds bonus points for its exposed wiring) between two different sized crystal wineglasses creates the classic...
