 If you had a PC in the 80’s or 90’s you may well have a lot of old floppy disks in the basement or loft. If so, now’s the time to dust them off and recycle them in a stylish way!
The Pac-Man picture on the left has been made up for hundreds of floppy disks. So why not put your creativity to use and see what floppy disk design art you can come up with?

 When you’re a kid it’s natural to have lots of toys around you in the home and in your bedroom, but what if you grow up and want the same things in your home? For adults that still have those yearnings for playing in their home, Archvirus Architecture have created a rather novel house in Greece.
Filled with ramps, for skateboarding whenever you feel like it, the Ramp House provides an indoor playground for adults who want to continue to have fun!

 Creating the perfect indoor environment is really hard, especially when you’re dealing with awkward spaces. If you’re struggling with a small space where there’s not enough room for a standard type of door, then how about trying this?
Look at the picture - the door slowly rotates in, so the required space is half that of a normal door. It’s an Ergon rototranslating door and it makes a huge difference in rooms where you’ve got limited space.

 I’m sure that most of us still have some old style audio cassette tapes that you can’t use anymore. Well, here’s a solution to recycle them in a stylish way.
An artist called iri5 created two portraits from cassette tapes. Jimi Hendrix and Bob Dylan look great on the wall, don’t you think?
If you don’t have a particular artist in mind, then just use a photo of any man or band you want to put on your wall, and start creating the wall art by drawing the design with a pencil. Then add your ripped up old audio cassette tape inners to create dimension and interest.

 A new futuristic lamp concept has showed up on the net. This design looks really good - the body part can slide and the lamp itself turns on.
This modern piece of wall art is still just a concept at the moment, but it looks great and if someone could create a product from this, it’s sure to gain customers!
Perhaps it won’t be long before we see it for sale on the market?

 This modern villa home in London, with its exterior cube-like design, is bursting with space and style. It has over 7,935 square feet of space, which include five bedroom suites, two reception rooms, a cinema, sparkling indoor pool, a staff apartment and secure parking.
The interior has been finished to high specifications, with no expense spared - all mod cons, contemporary decor and a clean, crisp look. Outside, there are no less than three large terraces, a courtyard balcony and pristine landscaped gardens.
Not surprisingly, for a property like this in Central London, it does come with quite a hefty price tage - £8,950,000! Would you buy it, if you could afford it?

 If you love your iPhone, then the chances are that you may well love this nifty new product!
Meninos have produced a range of iPhone-like coasters. The coasters are designed to look like the icons in your phone, so even when you’re not using your iPhone, you can still see and use the icon coasters in your home. They’d be great for use in the kitchen and a perfect talking point for a party.
Sadly, they’re not cheap, with the whole set of coasters priced at $60.
