iPhone Coffee Table

When you're sitting down thinking about nerdy furniture...one of the thoughts is how to incorporate your smartphone into your living room, right? Kyle Buckner has designed a coffee table to look like a giant iPhone. Some of the amenities are touch-sensitive, 6-inch subwoofer, 6 transducer speakers, and LED-lit cupholders.

The Secret Bat Cave

I have my ideas of a great house. One of those ideas is to have secret rooms. Imagine living in San Francisco where parking is a premium. Either you don't have any or you have to pay a lot for it.

This house was able to get around this issue by turning the bottom of the house into a 4 car garage. To get around the city ordinances of maintaining a consistent look, the architects had to design the "garage door" with a house-front facade. With the push of a button, the front of the house transforms into a garage door, allowing you to store all of your vehicles.
