    This is a really cool park bench!!
    I think this is cool because you could be at the park and be sitting down, but then all of a sudden, you get hungry! You could just pull this bench apart making it in to a picnic table!!! And have a picnic!!!

    I chose this design because it saves space and I love the design

    A couple of images I chose because of their space saving techniques and multifunctional purposes. The designs are made for bedrooms, living rooms, offices and my favourite, a thin console table that expands to comfortably seat ten. All of the designs are aesthetically appealing in my opinion and simply ergonomic!

  6. (Not sure if this is for 7B)
    The K workstation is very fascinating; it is aesthetically appealing to some and is made from a smooth material(Plywood). However, I think that its ergonomical design is flawed: If the user was tall enough(sitting), his head would bump against the top shelf, which is not adjustable

  9. http://www.coolthings.com/booktree-shelves/ definitely appealing to the eye and quite a beautiful design. Not exactly practical as it is not a very good space saver but if you have extra room in your house this could be a possible investment.

    The kitchen in these pictures is so cool!!! Its really awesome how a whole kitchen can fit in a little cabinet that is the size of a bathroom sink.

    I think this design is very compact and aesthetically pleasing and would work very well for a large family. The whiteboard would also be very convenient as young kids like to draw. I also think that little kids would like the idea of having a little cubicle to themselves, especially in a large family where you would need this many beds. They might also enjoy the simplistic colour scheme. The only flaw is that I can't see how you would get up to the top right bed without having to climb.

    I picked this device because i thought that it could be very useful. Its is very aesthetically designed thanks to the smooth curve. Its very compact as well, for it hardly takes up any space on your bed. It is very useful,for people get cold, and they get warm, but this can you out in any situation, whether you are trying to get through a cold winter night, or hot summer one.
