Ten architecture students from Columbia University GSAPP have recently completed Polymorphic , a kinetic installation in the form of a bench. Utilizing an innovative design and engineering solution inspired by the kinetic action of a see-saw and the reverberating motion of a slinky, the double-sided bench is made of a series of 119 interconnected sections and an interactive balance board. The sections are connected via an inventive pivot and bolt system, allowing the vertical movement of one section to be picked up by others down the line.

How cute and clever is this door mat?
It sweetly invites guests in and then tricks them with a quirky message to go away! I wonder how many people would actually notice the message when leaving. Probably not many! Especially if this fun and funky doormat was in front of one of these awesomely colorful front doors shown below.

Materials: Antonius shelf, Ekby Stödis brackets, Hessum doormat, screws, metallic L-brackets, white paint, pole, jute rope, floor protectors, small nails Description: Since I think most cat-clawing furniture are both really expensive and ugly I decided to make my own. 1.Take the Antonius shelf and cut it in three or how many “floors” you want for your cat. I measured two shelves after about half of the doormat and let the last piece become the bottom plate
