The Piano Table by Bohle
Georg Bohle, simple oak table has a musical secret under its hood– lift a door on its side and you’ll expose a full, 88-key electric piano. The Piano Table by Bohle is one of the most inventive pieces of furniture we’ve seen in some time, merging the musical with the modern. The table itself is ideal for a dining roo…m, it stretches long enough to fit a whole family and is unobtrusive in design. After the meal, however, flip open the piano door and you and your guests can enjoy a bit of man (or woman) made music. Such a special piece of furniture does not come cheap, however, as this piano table is made to order at $6,000 a piece.

The Good King Henry lamp
The Good King Henry lamp is made out of oak and powder coated steel tubes. It is surmounted by a fabric shade. The authors were guided by the idea of a perfect workmanship. The simplicity of the structural elements stresses their functionality and the combination of the bright colours with the pale hue of the wood gives the object subtleness. The shade was placed on a movable arm, which enables the users to adapt the inclination of the lamp so it best fits their needs and the nature of the interior. The irregular arrangement of the slats gives the lamp three different faces – the shape of the object changes according to the perspective from which it is observed. It awakens curiosity and encourages user interaction.
