3 Items that Play With Space

What do we mean by "items that play with space"? Well, we've seen a recent trend of home decor items and furniture experimenting with both negative and positive space in both surprising and successful ways. Manipulating the senses, they challenge the eye to figure out what's real or not real. They play around with the dimensions, mixing up 2D and 3D interchangeably. And did we mention they're fun to look at, too?

These are so interesting. And isn't there something about them that makes you want to touch them? Not just the mug - I want to run my hands along the edges of the puzzle tables -

I've seen the Jaren Goh Design Vintage Bookshelf before and it always reminds me of the dresser in beauty and the beast. I love it.
