Remember in school how all the network cables stayed hidden with those nice plastic shells that went up and down the walls and side to side on the floors? Wish you could do the same for your home? Now you can, thanks to Brooklyn-based designer Karl Zahn. His Picket Fence project looks to keep your cable collection tucked away behind a classic white picket fence. Sure, there’s wireless solutions, but that’s not ideal for all of us.

You stick a picket on your floor’s skirting board and continue as you see fit. Create a whole wall that resembles your mother’s garden and keep that CAT-5 on the DL. No word if the Picket Fence system will ever be released commercially, though you could always hit up The Home Depot and build your own.

When my pet used to jerk around in his sleep, I always wondered whether pets had the same types of dreams and aspirations as humans. Maybe dreams about space exploration? If our mutt’s dream of astronautical ventures, the only proper thing for us as their human masters to do, is to cater to those needs with the Pet Peek.

The Pet Peek gives your doggy an acrylic plastic bubble, in a very 50’s style sci-fi design, to stick his snout through and explore the unknown of your next door neighbors lawn. For $30, it’s not that much of a price to pay to give your doggy their dream. — Andrew Dobrow
