No one needs to tell us twice about the benefits of keeping work separate from home. But what do you do when you're forced to work in the place where you normally relax and kick back to watch zombie flicks? Create a top secret slide-open home office, like Australian firm Nexus Designs did with this Melbourne apartment...

The Apple iPad has been around for some time now and accessory makers have had plenty of time to mature their style and craftsmanship. We're big believers in protecting our tablets, so pairing them up with the best classic sleeves money can buy was simply the next logical step.

I'll admit, I have a thing for 70's electronics. I remember growing up and being enamored with my dad's silver stack of A/V equipment, power meters flicking with the beat. In today's modern world, I can only strive to recreate that golden age of electronics once again.

We live in a day and age where wireless Internet can be found at nearly every corner in our cities — even more so when you live in a tight apartment complex with multiple neighbors adjacent to your walls. This makes 'piggybacking' one another's Internet relatively easy, though when done so without permission, it may be considered unethical and even illegal.

Here's an IKEA hack you probably haven't thought of: a record player coat rack. Simply combine an out-of-commission record player with a couple IKEA coat hangers and voila! You've got the perfect tribute to the 'good ol' days' without straying too from home.
