What is it about cubes that activates our innate geeky attraction? Does it have something to do with our natural attraction to Geometry and segmented squares? I don’t know, I was never great at math. But what I do know is that anything involving cubes usually catches my eye.

This Matthius Pugin’s Cube Office Desk is particularly awesome because it’s composed of variously sized multi-colored cubes which can all be used as individual storage hubs. It sort of makes all other desks feel like a waste of space.

Sure, RPGing was definitely not the intention of these Giant Foam Cheese Dice (obviously the point was to attract aging gold digger women in casinos), but seriously, how could you not at least wonder what it would be like to play a little DnD with these bad boys? The only problem is that giant dice with only 6 sides is not acceptable. Give us some more options to work with!

Each of the bouncy Foam Dice measures 16″ by 16″ (which makes them perfect cubes for those not hip to the cooler parts of Geometry.) I’d totally even use these dice as pillows or chairs if there weren’t a warning on the product page announcing that the dice are, in fact, hollow, so sans the furnishing idea. A set of dice will cost you $89. — Andrew Dobrow

For a very brief moment of time each day, the Time Cube is a complete geometric cube block. The rest of the time, the clock is a geometric abnormality, dedicated to making time reading in need of a mathematical proof.

The clock forms star-shaped shapes when it is not 12 a.m. or p.m., with a series of layered triangles revolving around the base. The large triangle displays the hour, the medium triangle showing minutes, and the smallest triangle revolving to point to the correct time, acting as the second hand. Get your own for only $12.
