ALL IN ONE KITCHEN IN A BOX

This is a just a design concept by He Ruimin to be an "all in one" portable kitchen on wheels and has everything but a sink and uses every bit of space as is just darn cute. 

It has storage shelves and fridge shelves that slide out, a burner that when not in use is covered with a countertop that can be used as a food prep area, and a slide out area for liquid and solid waste.

I can see it being great for a small apartment or a small catering business (if it came with a long cord and adapter that could be plugged in a vehicles cigarette lighter).   What do you think?

HÜBLER Table - Concrete Desk with Built-In Bookshelves

This would be a mover's nightmare as it is made out of concrete and topped with glass.  
I found this via Doornob.  It is by manufacturer manufacturer IVANKA and artist János Hübler and although it is meant to be functional, it is also and artistic piece - to quote the article at Doornob "Part of the idea is to show the balance of ‘fixed’ history and our more ‘fluid’ writings about factual events, which evolve and shift as our understanding of historic happenings changes over time.

I don't know why, but for some reason it creeps me out and reminds me too much of the puzzle box from the "Hellraiser" movies.  I would be afraid to pull out a book lest the next thing I knew, Pinhead would be in my living room.
