Snap Alarm Smoke Detector

Filed under: GIMPs,Links,Other Furnishings — roclar @ 8:00 am

Everybody knows and understands the importance of smoke detectors. The trouble with most of these detectors is their installation can be a nuiscance to install. At least thats what the folks who designed the Snap Alarm Smoke Detector believe. Rather then seaking for ceiling space and breaking out the drill, simply clip this detector onto any hanging poll, chain or wire and it is ready to serve. Such convenience isn’t cheap though. The Snap Alarm Smoke Detector is available at least for Europe and Japan in both white and black for about $55.

Harbor Breeze 52″ Neon Light Ceiling Fan

Filed under: Light & Illuminated Objects,Links,Other Furnishings — roclar @ 6:11 pm

About a month or so ago, I went to Lowe’s to replace a fan in my master bedroom. The one that I had hung to low for the way I had the room oriented and with the light kit that was attached to it, I was in danger of hitting my head on it were I not careful. I am not sure if it was the acrylic translucent blades ala the minkaAire Artemis Translucent Fan that I had recently posted, a trip to the local Cheeburger Cheeburger, my generally…odd taste in home decor or the big red “clearance” tag ($100 vs. the standard $150) that drew me to the Harbor Breeze 52″ Neon Light Ceiling Fan but its the fan I ultimately purchased.

Fully Loaded Chair

Filed under: Destruction,Links,Other Furnishings — roclar @ 6:27 am

“With over 450 .12 gauge shotgun shells, this chair truly comes Fully Loaded. The bright brass tips create a massaging texture on the top of the chair, much to the contrary of their intended use.” At present, this chair is only party of Alexander Reh’s portfolio, but its still fun to look at.

Cardboard Folding Chairs

Filed under: Links,Other Furnishings — roclar @ 11:01 am

Here we have schematics for chairs made out of cardboard supporting the weight of the person or at least so it would appear. Its not quite as classy as the FedEx Box Furniture, but cardboard furniture is cardboard furniture.

Salubrion Chair

Filed under: Links,Other Furnishings — roclar @ 10:04 pm

This chair is designed for your to sit comfortably on the floor. For $40, I’d have to think hard about just sitting on the floor without any aid though.
