Consider changing the way you showcase books in your home or office. Create a coffee-table that fits books under a glass surface. Let the book covers show through the surface of the table.
Design an art desk with improved functionality for the diverse artist. Take a look at a traditional art desk: tilted at an angle, with a light attached, and a bunch of metal rulers, guidelines and rim for pencils and pens. Consider a way to attach a canvas to the table. Create the ultimate modular workspace that allows the artist to choose what kind of desk they need for their next art project.
While there are toiletry-kits on the market that separate items with plastic organizers, consider designing a more aesthetic modular design. The current designs aim to attract travelers and campers who need to minimize space on-the-go. Keep the home-owner or renter in mind who loves great design but has a tiny bathroom to work with. Create a toiletry kit that opens up elegantly to display the items in the case.
