In our ongoing quest to remodel the humble Listicles office into an epic design showroom with nothing but the coolest, slickest objects and items, we’ve made some… questionable purchases. Seriously, though, how were we expected to know that the Jurgen Bey tree trunk work bench (pictured below) was actually just a tree trunk with chair [...]

Couches aren’t just for hiding drugs and losing coins in, you can get anything in there. Like pets. After all, what kind of domestic animal doesn’t have at least one completely ridiculous and inaccessible hiding spot? Why, that’s what keeps them in touch with their animal instincts, surely. In which case, the pets in Urlesque’s [...]

Goodness knows we’ve had some close calls with some items of furniture that were just a little too real,but we’ve never had to deal with anything that looked like a bear, Wookiee, whale, python, frog or pig. Those are just a few of the creepy furniture designs included in Fast Company’s listicle of 12 Terrifying [...]

Remember that Rob Schneider film Deuce Bigalow: Male Gigalow, in which Schneider’s home aquarium expert is left in charge of a vacationing male sex worker’s massive fish tank? No? Well, you’re lucky, but suffice to say that within the context of that film, the palatial fish tank served as another symbol of the mustachioed sex [...]

In our ongoing efforts to turn the Listicles office into the coolest “new media” work/play funspace, we’ve been shopping around for minimalist chic objects and furniture. At first, all our computers were snazzy Pano Logic units (seen at right alongside its ugly desktop cousin), but after about a week of getting nothing done we decided [...]

As living spaces get tighter and furniture budgets get smaller, we’re starting to think that modular, movable and morphable furniture wil be the only way to make sense of our studio apartments/walk-in closets. For all our one-stop transforming furnishing needs, TreeHugger has this great listicle of The 10 Coolest Multifunctional Furniture Designs, our favorite being [...]

Recently we started shopping for office-appropriate furniture for Listicles headquarters, and we concluded in a brainstorming session that our workplace should look cool and sexy. Logically, then, we began searching for “cool furniture” (which mostly lead us to refirgerator wholesalers) and “sexy furniture,” which produced some interesting – though office-inappropriate - results. As our friend [...]

In a New York Times article today, folks from Wal-Mart muse that while every other retailer in the U.S. is hemorrhaging funds and customers, they’re doing great thank you very much. While we think Wal-Mart is one of the single most evil things in the world, we’re at least glad that their success will likely [...]

We’ve often focused our weekly psychoanalysticle, Freudian Fridays, on the symbolism of the spaces we travel, work and celebrate in to demonstrate that architecture and design are full of psychosexual implications. This isn’t limited to buildings and vehicles though, even furniture in your home can reveal a lot about, say, your relationship to your mother.
That’s [...]

Part of our recurring New Year resolutions here at Listicles tends to involve an intense desire to redecorate our apartment, office and several friends’ places with new furniture, posters and other decorative accessories. This yearly pilgrimage that leads us to antique shops, flea markets, thrift stores and craigslist often fades by the end of February [...]
