Lucas Maassen and Dries Verbruggen had a crazy idea. Not only did they have a crazy idea, but they acted on that very oddity. And that’s how you get things done, no matter how nutso the concept might seem.

This proof-of-concept Brainwave Sofa device takes raw EEG data and creates a piece of furniture based on your very thoughts.

The extracted EEG data was used to create a 3D landscape with the x-axis representing the frequency of brainwave activity in hertz, the y-axis is the percentage of activity, and the z- axis is time. The sofa was then created in its physical form by a five axis computer numerical controlled machine, which creates a three dimensional object out of foam.

The Periodic Table is so hot these days. Why not integrate it into your home decor? Other than the ideas innate geekiness, it seems like a cool little concept. But then again, geekiness is what we’re all about.

This awesome Periodic Table of Elements Quilt will make your serotonin levels soar as you cuddle up in its cuddliness-inducing folds.

Ok, so I lied. This Fight Club Soap is definitely not made with human fat, as it is “supposedly” 100% vegan. “Supposedly,” indeed. *wink wink*

Etsy’s very own vegan soap maker Dirty Ass Soaps has designed this Fight Club soap, similar to the bar that appears on the film’s iconic poster. First rule of Fight Club Soap, don’t mention its real ingredients.

I thought there was nothing more relaxing than watching Koi fish swim around in their pond, that was until I learned how soothing Koi can be when they’re melting into a puddle of liquid.

These Cold Fish Koi Ice Cube mold from Perpetual Kid allows you to freeze eight Koi-shaped ice shapes and let them float around in your beverage of choice until they melt into oblivion. It’s so much more convenient than owning your own pond.

I’m really digging this Space Invaders fabric I spotted over at Sprite Stitch. I would so rock a pillow set made out of this cloth. My house is just waiting to be upholstered in this material.

Somehow I don’t feel my girlfriend would be very supportive of the idea.

Look, if your going to hump your pillow regardless of its shape you might as well hump a pillow that somehow resembles the female reproductive system. The Uterus Pillow is only for the strictest lovers of the female anatomy.

For $48, you can own a pillow that’s just a little closer to the real thing, without being overly vulgar.

She might have blinded you with science, but what are you going to do when you start getting hungry? Filling your belly is a lot more difficult when you can’t see your own food. This Periodic Picnic Table is cool enough to bring sight to the blind. Prove me wrong.

I don’t know what I’d do to own a table this awesome, but I assure you, the limits are few and far between. Would I steal from a blind man? Are you kidding? I’d do that just for the fun of it. Well, only if I was stealing candy. I love candy. My next chemistry-themed BBQ is going to ROCK!

Known as the Minister’s Treehouse, Horace Burgess has created his massive tree-suspended abode which includes 10 floors of good ole’ forest living. Each floor measures on average between 9 and 11 feet in height. Between 8,000 and 10,000 square feet of flooring, completely made using reclaimed wood.

Minister Burgess has funneled overly $12,000 of his own money into the project. The home includes spiral staircases, a sanctuary, a choir loft and even a basketball court. Fact: the massive tree house is held together with a massive 258,000 nails. Burgess says he was promised by God that he would never run out of wood. And for now, God has kept his promise.

If it tastes anything close to how it looks you can expect the distinct flavor of urine and taxi exhaust. Mmm… urban.

One reason I hate having guests over is having to juggle three or four mugs of coffee at once. You’d think they’d be polite and reject my offers of a warm beverage, but no, it’s always take, take, take. Why is  there never any give?! HUH?!

Anyway, the point is that juggling so many mugs isn’t only annoying, it could be hazardous. If one of them just “happens” to “slip” out of your hand “accidentally” and spews scalding hot liquid all over your mother-in-law’s face, you could be facing more than just a little spill. The Link Mugs interlink together to produce a sturdy line, making the carrying part a whole lot easier and the “accidental” spillage a whole lot harder.
