Some of us have large and expansive separate dining rooms that are perfect for hosting holiday dinners and family feasts. But many of us — particularly those of us living in space-challenged apartments — only have tiny living rooms for everything we do. And in these cases, we must devise a seating area that can work for both lounging and dining.

We’ve all seen hundreds of recycled shipping containers being recommissioned as green sustainable recycled buildings. But with rising gas prices last summer, a lot of airlines were grounded, and far fewer now ply the skies with a smaller load of passengers. What to do with these massive structures? They are many of them simply parked in a massive airline industry recycling center in the desert.

But here’s…
… the first example of one being recycled for reuse, in Sweden. This decommissioned 747 jumbo jet last flew in 2002. It has been …

Berkeley’s David Brower Center, a 50,000-square-foot building that opens this weekend is truly sustainably built; more than half of the construction is comprised of recycled materials, making this the worlds largest scavenged building.
The building is designed to be 40 percent more energy-efficient, using solar power both on the roof and incorporated into sun-shades on the South facade to moderate direct sun while harnessing sunshine for power.
“Recycled, repurposed, and reused goods infuse the walls, carpets, furniture, fixtures, plumbing, and other aspects of this four-story structure which is expected to receive a …

One of the more novel entrants in the Greener Gadget design contest this year was this hand operated washing machine and spin dryer - just for those times when you need to wash a few things right away and do not want to wash a full load of laundry.

Perhaps, coming back from the gym, a way to wash your sweaty running gear back in your apartment or in the dorm. Or perhaps your swimming togs after a day at the pool.

The system is made of aluminum-finished inclined boxes with transverse shelf for better arrangement of books, DVDs and other similar items. Depending on the wall dimensions you can choose how much of these boxes to arrange, hence the height of the “pyramid”. We look forward to see its debut at the Furniture Exhibition in Milan.
