Are you a believer of Feng shui? Do you go as far as employing Feng Shui techniques to invite good vibes, energy and good luck to your abode?
Feng shui is an ancient art by the Chinese in which one attempts to maneuver his environment to gain the best and most out of life. Health, wealth, long life, happiness are the four basic elements that a person yearn to have.
People who believe in Feng Shui periodically renovate or remodel their house to allow its environment and objects coordinate with the energy forces of life. To get the best out of Feng Shui, some people seek the help and guidance of experts on the craft.

Flexible Love
A single chair – that can seat up to 16 people? As hilarious as it sounds, the Flexible Love is indeed flexible to giving some love to standing people. Amazing how it can extend to accommodate 16 people, without having to worry later on if it will fit back to its normal place inside the house. Of course, it’s not everyday that you’d be having such number of people over but you just might, once they find out what an amazing furniture you have in your house. (They would love to check it out!)
Tagei
A graduate of Industrial Design, Akemi Tanaka came up with truly innovative convertible furniture. The Tagei is meant to be a regular coffee table on regular days but it can also be a special bench for special occasions. Bored with conversations over coffee? Extend the Tagei and punch up a party!
Mongga
Now that everyone’s seated, a table is in order. The Mongga, initially a solo elegant chair, can be transformed into a table. If all the munchies are gone, the Mongga can convert back into a chair for one more tired (and maybe tipsy) guest.

Continued from The Top 10 Organizers of Apartment Space
6. Stackable Plastic Drawers – look for drawers that can be customized. If you would only have space for a couple of drawers per room or corner, you wouldn’t have to worry of where to place that huge chest of drawers. Plastic drawers are cheap and can be stacked according to the kind of space that can accommodate it.
7. Hooks – hooks are very helpful especially when placed in the strategic places of your house. Use hooks for your coats, hats, umbrellas and bags. You can also use hooks for your keys, mobile phone, and ID card.
8. Shoe organizer – shoe racks are bulky and won’t even hold all of your countless pairs, while cabinets don’t have proper ventilation and would be more useful holding other stuff. Opt for the hanging shoe organizer, one that can go over your door or wall.
9. TV Shelf – the television is an essential home appliance and even houses with the smallest spaces give room for one. use the opportunity to buy a shelved TV rack, one that can hold not only your TV but as well a books, DVDs, magazines and the like.
10. Bed frame with drawers – this works like that of under-the-bed storage and it won’t collect too much dust.
