Stepping up to a wealth of knowledge: Shelving your prized possessions in style

If you are a bookworm or someone who loves to collect books, magazines and other wisdom-offering treats, then this simple, yet ergonomic home must please you to no end! The owner of this space obviously could not dedicate a whole room to create a personal library, so instead they went the smart way and turned their staircase into a storage space for all those copies. Just leaving enough space to stride up and down the steps comfortable, the wall adjacent to the stairway sports a giant storage space with loads of books. The white walls, the comforting couch, the orange lining and the art work just add more beauty to this smart and savvy approach!

Transparent Glass Pool Table by Nottage Design G-1

A few years ago I’ve had a dream to own my own pool table, but that dream is not a top priority right now. Today I’ve found a pool table that is a little more different than most pool tables. Created by Australia-based Nottage Design, the G-1 offers a perfect blend of modern styling and latest technology. It enjoys a transparent playing area with a glass top and patented resin playing surface.



This pool table has a clear surface made with a Vitrik™ playing surface. Vitrik™ is a patented surface that is designed to mimic the characteristics of felt, giving it the same smooth feel of a regular pool table. The minimalist modern frame features integrated ball return allowing pocketed balls to be seen through the transparent top. You can get one for AUS RRP $39,900 if you live in Australia for other countries you will need to contact them for the pricing details.
