concepts in "furniture"

http://blag.xkcd.com/2007/11/19/growing-up/

I kind of doubt that we're ever going to try this, for a variety of reasons...but I gotta say that, especially now that I've got three kids (but even without that) this would have to be one of the coolest options for "furniture" that I've seen. :) (Of course, most furniture you don't have to reassemble after your kids have been using it for 10 minutes. It does have its downsides.)

Circular tables that can change their radius from one value to another by being rotated around their vertical axis. The site includes a few short movies; check it out, as my description doesn't do it justice. Very nice concept.
