Diverse Mountain House with an Extreme Level of Comfort in Brazil
November 15, 2010 by admin
When we think at a mountain house we tend to imagine a modest cottage, usually made of wood, with nothing inside but a cozy fire and simple furniture. This particular home comes from David Guerra Architecture and is located in Minas Gerais, Brazil, in a beautiful natural environment. But it definitely does not resemble a common and moderate mountain lodge, but more like an opulent contemporary residence. Designed to be a weekend family getaway, this home features generous verandas, a water mirror, a cascade and a pool. Here is more information from the architects: “All private and social areas were developed in one single level which faces the mountains. The verandas of these premises are turned to a grassy courtyard where the swimming pool with a deck, a douche, a water mirror and a cascade is located. The materials were chosen with the aim to combine beauty, snugness and ease of maintenance and to create a contrast between natural and technological materials such as reclaimed wood, stones, earthenware, bamboo, tile, fiber, metal, stainless steel, double glazed and laminated glass, glass tile, anodized aluminum, wood venetian and tecnocimento.” Even though this home houses plenty of modern items (the furniture, for example), it also has some charming rustic and natural elements which combine in creating a lovely home in a dream location.

Pillow Remote Control, Almost Impossible to Lose
November 15, 2010 by admin
Here is a fun and functional design that acts both as a pillow and a remote control. Intrigued? With a built-in 6-in-1 universal remote control, this pillow can help you change TV channels and get a good night’s sleep, provided it is not on. Its design couldn’t be simpler: there is an “activate” button in the bottom right corner which triggers the device and from then on, the user can simply hold the pillow and zap. The pillow comes with a practical power-saving auto shutoff feature which shuts off all remote functions after 60 seconds of not being used. Sure, the best thing about this unusual gizmo is that it can not be lost. In the event this actually does happen, the owner can always turn to the more classical remote control. The pillow can be purchased online here, for the price of $30.- via The Awesomer
