Would you love cars so much that you want everything around you looking like Corvette cars? We have heard of furniture styled after soccer, automobiles, and sometimes fashioned out of airplane parts too. But CarCrazyDesks decided to bring in some out of the box workstations that would add zing to your otherwise boring looking workspace.
It has a BBQ Vette C5 barbeque grill too, besides a liquor cabinet that is refrigerated, liquor bar and a billiards table to help pep up your party scene at the office.
The superbly designed C5 Corvette Desk has the showstopper feel, for its bells and whistles, work lights, tail light lens of superior quality, handmade billet aluminium engraved knobs and high grade wood design that is custom made with your choice of wood. The glass which can be etched with your company logo is a signature ownership piece.
All the same, the pricing goes hand in glove with the quality too. You need to shell out not less than $ 1,400 to start with, for a steel frame design. The refrigerated liquor cabinet you can take home for $ 2,100. The desk will cost you $ 1,900. So go satiate the car lover in you.

Attempts to replicate Batman’s super car have been intermittent and sometimes constant if not consistent in the past. But most replicas have been nearly like relics. In the past we have had the $ 1 million Batmobile from Sweden and in 1966 ther was Batmobile recreation by Barrett-Jackson.
You may be in for a surprise when you know, that you can actually own your own authentic Batmobile for a price. The model in question is a 1976 Lincoln Continental which has been price tagged $19,660.
Not limiting yourself to those gasps at visuals featuring Batmobiles in films or television, you may not be able to boast of its coming signatured with original Batman series characters. But if it is something you want to flaunt at your Halloween party and have loads of dollars in your kitty, go for it.
The replica has props such as lipstick-red Batphone and trunk-mounted faux exhaust stacks to go with it as accessories. The vehicle comes close to vintage fancy too. If you are a vintage collector, it has the right tones and looks for an exotic looking four-wheeler.

You can trust Swarovski to go to any magnanimous lengths to come up with anything you can imagine, in its crystals.
After a line of interesting products for its 20th anniversary, the brand has unveiled, not a clutch purse or shoes, but a Corsage in Swarovski crystals. The figure hugging garment has been a rage ever since Sex and The City star Sarah Jessica Parker adorned it.
For those with that money to splash around, this one may be the ultimate wanna-grab thing around. The difference now though is that it looks stunning with the crystals avatar by Ukrainian designer Verlingieri Lesya. The new label she has created it for is by Lever couture. The designer is 26 years young and got her degree at Modedesigerin, in mid-2007. The young designer is known to create exquisite design and processes with high-quality material such as Jacob Swarovski Schlepfer substances. Her effort in detail shows in this material.
The strapless Swarovski studded corsage is enhanced with 41,000 Swarovski crystals for that grand appearance. It costs $10,000, which makes it perhaps the most expensive of such pieces in the world.

Designers absolutely love talking about how the simplest designs are always the most useful and the most difficult to think up. Every time a new design for a product is unveiled, people are left admiring the simplicity and wondering why no one had ever thought of making things that way!
The Eraser Brush is a product that you’ll view with the same thoughts in mind. The wooden block is fitted with an eraser on one end and a natural hair brush on the other end. Doodle away on your sketch books and when it is time to put in an actual drawing, just erase and brush away the extra rubber bits. You never should try sketching when your hands are dirty but even so, rubbing away those tiny bits can leave smudges on clean sheets.

The Formula 1 is at its peak. And the luxury world is doing everything it can to celebrate its spirit. After all, there aren’t too many sports that are referred to as the rich man’s (oops, person’s) game. This time around it is the Russian manufacturer of luxury mobile phones Gresso that has been inspired by F1 racing.
The newest release from the brand has been dubbed Gresso Grand Monaco. And we are told that it has been molded out of the materials related to the world of racing. For instance, a titanium super alloy has been used as well as a hi-tech ceramic and carbon. Even steel and hand-polished 42 K sapphire crystal has been used for framing the display.

If you’re like most other people then you are guilty of pouring coffee on your keyboard at least once a week and getting crackers on it uncountable number of times every day. The idea of cleaning it is unthinkable because everyone knows how impossible that is.
The next time your kid tries to help you out by throwing your keyboard into the washing machine because you complained about how untidy it is, you won’t have to get mad at him. The Washable Keyboard is designed especially with accident prone people and those with kids. The designer doesn’t say so, but obviously he had us unfortunate souls in mind.
