Ultimate Bike Share Bag Due to the web of bike-sharing programs sprouting up across the country, it’s easy to fit a community cycle into your life. But those shared rides rarely make it easy to fit your gear onto their frame. Chicagoan Maria Boustead and her Po Campo company created this weatherproof carrier that not only conforms to the confines of system’s like Citibike and Chicago’s Divvy, but also has enough space to carry a laptop or a six-pack (or, depending on how cool your company is, both). Currently fundraising on Kickstarter until May 29.

Brooklyn-based firm Bronsen completed a successful Kickstarter campaign for their Project Safari collection of ceramic animal busts last fall. A series of accompanying Project Safari prints will be available exclusively on Bezar.

Here's the master bedroom. "The bed is monolithic, almost part of the architecture," Mazor observes.

With Maze and Dream, Feifei had to find a balance between the practical needs of a hotel suite and awe-inspiring spatial effects.

"The green walls of Maze make this room more mysterious, like the secret forest with hidden doors in fairy tales," says Feifei.

Project architects Studio Marshall Blecher and Jan Henrik Jansen Arkitekter opened up the center of the house, previously comprising a maze of fourteen small rooms, creating one large and airy kitchen and dining space with a high, chapel like ceiling. A six-meter-long concrete plinth standing at the center of the room which doubles as an island bench and dining table, had to be lowered into the house by a crane while the roof was being reconstructed.

In Maze, stairs lead to golden doors, behind which (with a little imagination) one might find a trail leading deeper into an enchanted forest.

The 18-inch-thick adobe walls keep the house cool in the summer and cozy in the winter. An animal-themed nook situated next to a fiddle-leaf fig calls to mind a safari adventure.
