College life can provide plenty of inspiration in the field of design and architecture. In this post we would like to present the
Bravo Chair
, a project that was especially developed to “
allow for that much needed mid study session nap
“. According to
Design Milk
, the creator,
Matte Nyberg
, is currently studying to receive a Masters of Industrial Design at Pratt Institute.

Steps Bench Connects Parent And Child At Early Ages
Connecting parent and child in a new and interesting way, the
Steps Bench
was created to display a simple design with a versatile use. Providing a long-term bond between the two users, the bench transforms from one age to another to accommodate the needs of the child: “
Placing the stool under the hole of seat, it is a table for the child. When the child grows a little older, they can sit next to each other at the same level by fitting the stool back into the hole.
” Designed by Kohdai Iwamoto and part of the
Design Soil
project, this beech wood bench rests its curved top on four legs. Urethane foam covered in colorful fabric was used to create the comfy stool and the hole on one side holds this muffin-resembling element when your kid is old enough to comfortably sit next to you. Its name offers a perspective on the steps each child has to take in order to grow up happy alongside family. Do you think this bench would increase the amount and quality of time you spend with your child?

Pet and Person, Rocking-2-Gether In Patent-Pending Chair
Sharing moments together with your trusty pet companion can create a strong bond, but relaxing together can also improve the way you understand a stress-free moment. Cats are perfect teachers of relaxation – they swiftly react to threats, but when it comes to down time, you can clearly see there is nothing in the world that can bother a cat. Dogs, on the other hand, thrive when close to their masters and mirror their behavior and every moment with them is a bliss. The patent-pending
Rocking-2-Gether Chair
designed by Houston architect
Paul Kweton
creates this shared moment routine while displaying a carefully mastered design. Made out of CNC milled birch plywood, the modern rocking chair can be customized to display different density and sizes for the wooden spacers, so you can control the visual connection between you and your pet. If you love this design found on
LaughingSquid
as much as we do, spread the word that Paul Kweton is currently looking for manufacturers and distributors. We might see this beautiful rocking chair/dog house hybrid on the market in no time!
