Who does what I do when I get home? Start laying out all of your stuff in your pockets and putting them all over the place. Wouldn't it be nice to have a spot where you could put all your stuff in one place.
The Butler ($170) by Curtis Micklish makes that decision a no-brainer. Made of solid walnut and baltic birch laminated ply, this stylish wall-mounted organizer is the perfect item to greet you at the door.
A smartly designed slider makes the butler perfect for hanging your glasses, hats, scarves or a watch, while two top cubbies contain other essentials like your wallet and keys. There’s also a side slot for iPhone owners, and if you can mount it near an outlet, there’s even a concealed part for a charging cord.

How about throwing the idea of a luxury hotel out and staying in a lodge on a remote Swedish island in a triangular hut. Designed by Stockholm architects
Jagnefalt Milton, each Black Lodge will have wooden walls that fold open so that guests can open the room out to the elements as much or as little as they prefer. The only furniture inside will be wooden boards, which can be used as tables, beds or benches, plus stools. Find out more about this lodge on
Dezeen.
The
Terrarium Floor Lamp is a neat and stylish idea and was created by
Autumn Workshop. Here is their idea put in there own words:
The terrarium floor lamp emerged from experimentation with two things: touch dimming lamps and terrarium lamps. The goal was to merge the two in a unique way that would provide a larger upright lamp with the pleasant functionality of adjusting the brightness with a touch of the finger. You need only tap the steel bar to select one of four brightness levels, which is an elegant and ergonomic solution to the floor lamp switch.
The terrarium floor lamp was prototyped and handmade from walnut and maple. Autumn Workshop created a limited run of three of these lamp and they didn't provide a price, but I'm sure if your interested a quick email is all you need to construct.
It has been a while, but I'm proud to provide the next volume of
TCL Mixtape Series mixed by
DJ Glazye. DJ Glazye is another friend of mine from good old Ohio. He has provided a sick and wonderful journey through some
Glitch Hop. He was even kind enough to provide a
little background for all of you readers out there and this is what he had to say:
I started djing back in 97, I play Glitch-Hop, Breaks, DnB, House. Most of the music I play is Glitch Techy influences. I came up in the NE Ohio Electronic Music scene. Some of the artist I like include Stephan Jacobs, Blunt Instrument, Dj Shadow, Tim Ismag, Myselor, Opiou, Koan Sound, AMB, Culprate, and Jpod to name a few.
This set was recorded live at The Lounge in Akron, Ohio last month at a party called "

DEMF and he was nice enough to share. So get your listening on and start downloading away.
