Milk Desk by Soren Kjaer
Soren Kjaer, the designer of this Milk Desk, calls his creation the “iPod of Desks.” And while that’s a pretty smooth pitch for a desk, it’s actually a pretty apt description. Milk is a Danish combination office desk and has a built in fish tank, penholder, garbage bin, file cabinets, height adjuster, and a storage box for your iPod. Half of those things are pointless, but it’s also white (like milk!) and looks pretty neat. If you stick it in your office you’ll feel like you’re from the future!

Laundry Wall by Whirlpool
Whirlpool’s creative design offers a visually interesting solution to that old-age problem of how you can easily manage your laundry without getting tired.
The washing machine boasts three baskets above for the different types of items: whites, colours, and darks. Once the wash is done an ingenious device hauls away the clothes to another compartment, which dries, de-creases and refreshes them. The downside of course is that you have to sacrifice an entire wall and get another few jobs to pay for it.
