Los Angeles-based design and manufacturing company, Bend Goods, has just unveiled a new recliner that looks like a peacock. It is an updated version of the iconic wicker chair from the 1970s. This time, the willow wicker was replaced by a geometric pattern made of metal, which gives the product a fresh breeze and a unique touch.
The Cybunker is not just an ordinary garage, but also a shelter that can survive literally anything.
Should airport runways be round? This would make them more ecological, make less noise, and make landing safer.
The Bauhaus campus museum in Dessau has offered its visitors something new: they can now spend the night in the bedrooms of the former German modernist design school.
Ideas for new living solutions grow like mushrooms after the rain. And if there's a mushroom picker in you, you know that the picking is excellent this year. We don't know how it is with mushrooms in the USA, but we do know that they have set up a rather fancy housing unit in the famous Joshua Tree Park.
In Manhattan, New York, skyscrapers are growing taller and taller like mushrooms after the rain. But Greek architect Ioannis Oikonomou hopes to break a new record. His company Oiio Studio has designed a U-shaped tower block called Big Bend, which, if all goes well, will become the 'longest building in the world' (it will measure approximately 1,219 meters in length).
With spring, besides the first plants, many bicycles also peeked out. More and more people already enjoy the city commute to work, and from now on they will be able to do so even more.

Zoran Šimić's bivouac, located on the remote Visočica mountain range in Bosnia and Herzegovina, serves as a shelter for hikers and offers a wonderful view of the landscape. It is the first such "object" of this typology in this speech, which has only recently become more accessible with the development of local road infrastructure!
BiWa is an exercise bike that is also a washing machine. It allows us to perform two activities at the same time; we relax and do household chores. The BiWa concept was created by design students at Dalian Nationalities University in China.
Architecture from the mid-20th century has not stood the test of time. People didn't love her. This is especially true for ex-communist countries in Europe and Central Asia. The communist ideology, which flowed through all phases of life there, was imposed and consolidated through socialist architecture, among other things. This gave not only boring, but sometimes also extremely bizarre objects. Some of them are still standing 25 years after the fall of the Berlin Wall.
