Futuristic Home Furnishings by Sony

Thinking about the future makes you wonder about what we have not seen at this point in our lives. Take for example futuristic home furnishings like the Fusion Table by Sony. Here a computer has been grafted into a coffee table creating a high-tech piece of furniture that is eye-catching and dual purpose. Fusion is set to retail for around $3,000. It will be interesting to see how well it is received. Via - Bornrich.

The Sony Fusion

laptop-coffee-table

Despite having a large empty desk and a room at home devoted entirely to being an office space, my laptop pretty much lives on my coffee table.  I’m not really sure why, it just always winds up this way –  probably has something to do with constantly multitasking.

laptop-table2

Luckily someone at Sony must have been experiencing the same thing. The Sony Fusion is a coffee table with a built in laptop! A simple push of a button converts the table into a work station with a touch sensitive keyboard and adjustable screen.  It’s not available yet, but this brilliant concept is expected to be in production soon, in three different colors and around $3000.

Super Smart Kitchen Design

modular-kitchen2

Ok I know this is not a kitchen blog, but this design is so smart I just couldn’t pass up on sharing it with you. Called the Accordion Folding Cook Table, this modular counter is perfect for small kitchens. What I wouldn’t have given to have this in my first apartment!

modular-kitchen

The Accordion Folding Cool Table features triangle drawers the pop out from its folds, as well as sliding counter tops and additional drawers on each side. The drawer covers cane be rotated and used as prep boards!  When you’re done preparing the meal, simply pull up a few stools and you’re ready to go!  Simple but brilliant in my opinion. See more from the talented Olka Kalugina here.
