Sowieso storage unit plays with the simple and probably oldest way of storing things – in a box. Just like a box, this piece of furniture serves any space and purpose around the house. Always tending to adapt to its contents and surroundings Sowieso is a looker in any case. The solid Oak wood frame can be used free standing in horizontal and vertical position. Using a metal pin each box is suspended in the frame, allowing you to store whatever you can think of.

Part modern art piece, part storage unit, Frame Hanger from Generate is an oversized coat hanger that leans against the wall. It starts to live as you “decorate” it with clothes, hats, accessories or bags. Think of it as a large, evolving installation piece, or as a cool spot to hang your stuff. And when you want a change, just flip it over – the reverse side is in a different color.

These neat new giant LEGO storage brick boxes have been made especially for STORE, a british retailer, under licence from LEGO themselves and just like the original LEGO bricks, each storage box can be clicked together and then stacked to create a giant LEGO structure but with the added benefit of storage within. I think they will look really cute and add a touch of color to any room. See More

My goose-bumps have goose-bumps after having a look at these uniquely woven and hand-crafted products. Founder of CraftedSystems and industrial designer, Aurelie Tu’s passion for beautifully crafted and sustainable design was the natural precursor to starting the Portland company. She has gone above and beyond to create both a creative and community-focused group that benefits local manufacturers and the local women’s community. Instead of using highly skilled artisans, CraftedSystems has partnered with the YMCA women’s shelter to provide an outlet for skill development for women in transition by economically enabling and empowering them.

The planters hold the plant in the center of the design, offering sanctuary and protection. The organic and maternal form of the planter embraces the delicate moments of nature’s cycle. The Zoie family features two designs – Zoie Sophia features two canopies; while Zoie Anouk features three canopies. Each is available in four sizes and in a palette of 13 colours.
