Sleepy Working Bed

Filed under: Decor

I've heard many commuting professionals joke that those of use who work at home sit around in pajamas all day. Philippe Starck has just given every pj-clad worker a reason to spend the whole day in bed, too. His Sleepy Working Bed has a desk that attaches to the headboard, dual bedside tables that have integral dat/power points and an additional table at the foot of the bed. It even has two different types of lights, one for the desk and one to light the bedside tables, creating the ideal lighting for the position of the table. The only thing it doesn't have is a fridge, so you'll just have to stop by it on the way to the bathroom. Price: £5,700 (approx. $10,800).

The Business Bib

Filed under: Apparel

Do you telecommute to work on a regular basis? For many who work from home on a regular basis, the dress code is relaxed, to say the least. Some work in jeans and a T-shirt, while others stick with pjs and slippers for the majority of their working hours. But with a rise in video conferencing, stay at home workers find that they have to meet real office dress codes even in their home office. Enter the Business Bib. It enables wearers to look like they're properly attired in a full suit from the chest up, so you can fool you boss and co-workers via webcam and avoid getting dressed for a bit longer in the mornings. It may look strange when viewed as a whole, but a glance at the gallery proves that they do look very convincing. The materials are of high quality and, perhaps best of all, you'll never have to worry about coordinating colors. Prices range from $135 to $150, and the personality descriptions with each bib are worth a read, even if you plan to stick with real suits.
