Geek Furniture: Donkey Kong Shelves

Some weeks before I posted about the Space Invader Sofa, well looking at more of Igor Chak's designs I saw this awesome Donkey Kong shelves.

You probably recognize the screenshot and the shelves. But for those who don't here is a more bigger picture of the original inspiration:

As you can see it is pretty accurate with the design, it even has the angles of the shelves in pixels, which I think it is so cool. 


The designer, referring to these shelves, says in his official blog:

"The wall is made out of individual sections; each section is made out of durable but light carbon fiber, anodized aluminum pixels that are joined with strong stainless steel rods and toughened glass tops. The special mounts themselves are made out of steel and can support up to 60lbs"
The thing is, that this shelves are not really for sale is just a design, so we are left only with the dream to have these unique piece of furniture at home. However, creative geeks are all over the globe, and they brought us these awesome and real shelves:

If you are looking for an easy thing you just can decorate your shelves with duct tape or paint it, get hold on some ladders and barrels, a mario or donkey plush and you got yourself a new geeky furniture.

Space Invaders Sofa

As I commented before, my dream is to have an entire house made of geek furniture or decorated with geek motives. We started by the living room and we will keep on going.  The last time I commented on the functional Nintendo controller table and what would go better than a Space Invader Sofa. 

A geek must have. Here you can see other pic, where it shows it can store things too.

The designer of this outlandish sofa is Igor Chak, and there is an option to buy it for 5000$ in his web.
