Wow, now this is a hammock.  I drive by my neighbours hammock everyday, and it’s one strung between two trees.

Don’t have 2 trees in your yard?  Well here is one that does not need trees.

Modernica decides to reissue Criss Cross Bubble Lamp in Cigar, Ball and Pear shapes.  The Criss Cross was the last of George Nelson Bubble Lamps that Modernica reintroduced.

Modernica recently blogged “Criss Cross Revived!”, comparing “Kris Kross” the 90’s hip hop group, with the latest reissued Criss Cross Bubble Lamps.

Both are iconic and unique.  Those kids were electric and their hit was one of catchiest songs at dance clubs at that time.  They also created a crazy fashion trend.  Kids wore their jeans backwards and were jumping to the song.  Maybe the two Chris’ or ” mack daddies” of Kris Kross will make their own comeback someday soon and we’ll  see kids wearing their jeans backwards and bringing jiggedy back.

Hot desking became prominent in the 1990’s to describe sharing a workspace.  This originated from “hot bunking” which was a naval term used to describe sharing a bunk when out at sea.  Hot Desking [to hotdesk] is where workers do not have their own desks, but are allocated work space according to their needs.

Now with the price of mobile devices going down, and the increase in accessibility to mobile internet, many workspaces are being tailored  to laptops/notebooks as a primary computer.

Humanscale, being the leader in office ergonomics and the pioneer of advanced notebook stands has teamed up with Niels Diffrient again.  They have designed another task light, now with power and internet called Humanscale Diffrient Technology Light Table Lamp.
