The Sicis Next Art Furniture Collection is part flamboyant, part decadent and a whole lot outrageous. Not for the faint-hearted this ostentatious collection has been designed by Carla Tolomeo who isn't scared to experiment or to create a fantasy world. The baroque styled limited-edition collection of chairs and settees has been embedded with Sicis mosaic and each piece in this dazzling series boasts of the highest craftsmanship and that too Italian. The Sicis Next Art Collection pays homage to the wonders of nature like a blooming rose or a butterfly and almost surreptitiously transports you to a surreal exotic sublime world.

The stunning Slimtech Lines and Waves tiles series from LEA Ceramiche will change the landscape of any room. The hypnotic patterns will instantly draw in the discerning consumer and the subtle color palette will soothe the sense. Juxtaposing the dueling trend of minimalism with eclecticism, the visually striking series has been designed by Patrick Norguet. The Slimtech Lines and Waves features laminated porcelain slabs that measure mere 3mm thick thanks to a manufacturing process that is capable of compacting porcelain stoneware.

The Diplodocus Clothes Rack is an out-of-the-box idea for designing a piece of furniture we usually take for granted and don't pay that much attention to, the closet, or at least part of it. The Diplodocus Clothes Rack comes in various shapes that will probably fit with most closets and, most importantly, that will fit with your various coats no matter how long they are. The Diplodocus racks are made of stainless steel and they have an electropolished durable surface, which is scratch-, wear- and corrosion-resistant and very easy to clean. The Diplodocus rack series has four different models, two mountable and two freestanding and they'll certainly play nice with any closet or room. Are you ready to hide a dinosaur in your closet?

The rest if pretty simple: you get home, lock your door and Buckle Up all your keys. Next time you head out you'll know exactly where the keys are and won't have to waste an extra 5 minutes looking all over the place for them.

This is the last thing you'd want to change, but what if your doors had no doorknobs? Would you still be able to open and close them? There would have to be a way to push and pull the door and also keep it looked for most of the day, so how would you manage to do all that without doorknobs? Well it seems that Albed has found a way to make some doorknob-free doors that do away with that particular door element. As you can see in the designs below, the knob is out of the pictures, or, in most cases, reinvented or embedded within the door itself. Some of the models below are actually available to order in case you want to replace your current door with something a little more modern. Via Albed

The Fossa sofa also happens to be a lounger, a bed or a corner sectional depending on your wishes. We're actually looking at a modular couch that can be rearranged whenever you feel like going for a new sofa design. The Fossa, although not the only modular sofa out there, is definitely unique and could be very well considered for all sorts of interior design ideas. The sofa is also a great addition to small homes too as it can also act as an improvised bed since all of its cushions can be rearranged in any way you see fit. Therefore the Fossa could act as a comfortable bed at night and then as a full-sized sofa during the rest of the day. Via COR

Industrial designer Andrea Dentoni is based in Italy which is no doubt the Mecca for quality contemporary furniture. All his creations seem to transcend the cliched design trajectories and each piece bears his individualistic stamp. The Poltroncina Seating Unit is no different since its make a radical departure from the usually prosaic seating arrangements. Inspired by an array of geometrical shapes, Poltroncina works thanks to its quirky seating pattern and funky color palette. At the heart of the seating system lies the Trapezoidal shaped unit which acts as a central hub and encourages dialogue between those using it.Suitable for both domestic and public spaces, the modular seating unit is available in multiple configurations.

While the Internet is definitely the source to go to for any kind of information, that doesn't mean we'll quit reading printed magazines in the near future. In fact printed magazines are found everywhere these days, and sometimes they tend to clutter particular areas of the house or waiting halls. That's where the Opla magazine rack could come in handy. The Opla is a neat, transparent, modern magazine holder that can be placed in various rooms or waiting areas and bring order to your frugal reading habits. The Opla is made of two acrylic sheets that are collapsible which makes storing and transporting the magazine holder a lot easier. Have you decided how many Oplas you need in your life?

Having seen lots of interesting table designs lately I'm not surprised to find this particular furniture idea, the Grip Table Leg. All you need is some imagination and, thanks to four Grip Legs you'll be able to turn any hard surface into an improvised temporary table, or, in case you absolutely love the Grip Leg design, into a more permanent table solution. As you can see the Grip Legs can be easily attached to any tabletop and they'll certainly hang on tight to that surface in order to offer you a great, and safe, table design. In case you're thinking about ordering the Grip Leg set then make sure you check out Bloomming's bamboo boards that are specially crafted for this table project. And they definitely have plenty of bamboo boards for you to choose from and pair with their Grip Table Legs! Via Bloomming.
