The Turn Table from feinstet would appeal to the chaotic genius in all of us. It uses a simple illusion to get rid of a messy surface, bringing the mess back at a more convenient time, like after lunch.

I like to think that some inanimate objects are smarter than others, like the candlesticks in Beauty and the Beast. Yes. I believe when we go to bed our toys come to life as well, so sue me. So when I saw this self assembling table, I thought it just might be the smartest table I had seen in a while.
Robert van Embricqs designed this self assembling table to have its legs fall out and create a stand for the table top automatically. As an added bonus, the latticework creates a handy channel for fruit or other centre pieces and anything that spills onto the table’s surface slips right through the same grooves, and onto the floor.
Mason jars are being transformed into everything from vases to drinking glasses by stay at home moms across the world. I guess it was only a matter of time before men got in on the act and turned a couple of mason jars into something more manly.

One of the most frustrating things about putting together puzzles in real life, is discovering a missing piece. You are left with an incomplete feeling, a feeling of anticlimax. Like you just need to get over a meter wide chasm but have no legs. Or at least that’s the way I feel. I hate leaving things undone or unfinished, especially games. It just frustrates the hell out of me. So when I saw Rupert McKelvie’s pieces made from puzzle pieces I felt like finally this was revenge on all the puzzles left undone, unfinished.
