Posted in: UncategorizedThere is a new addition in Ikea’s Vika build-your-own-table series that is wonderful for people who live in small spaces. The Vika Veine begins as a small table, perfect for all your small table needs:
but then transforms into a really great office for a laptop user:
The Vika Veine comes in white and a black-brown and works with the VIKA table legs. The interior of the desk includes cable outlets inside the desk unit, so only one cable runs to the table/desk. The inside lid pockets are made with a heavy felt that Ikea says “absorbs sound and can also be used as a notice board.” And, like so many of Ikea’s products, the Vika Veine is pretty reasonably priced at $100 — not too bad for two highly functional pieces of furniture.

Quote of Note | Marc Jacobs

Looks from Marc Jacobs’ fall 2010 collection
“As a designer, you make the clothes and put them out there and then they have to exist on their own. I learned long ago that people would come backstage after my shows and tell me what was going on, and I should not bother with correcting them, because what really mattered was their experience. Once clothes are in a shop, it really doesn’t matter what a designer was thinking; it doesn’t make a coat a better coat because it was inspired by turn-of-the-century England.”

Dos Equis Cargo Hunt Ticket Giveaway
Posted in: UncategorizedEnter now for your chance to win tickets to “the world’s most interesting” event
Advertorial Content
Visitors to CH may have noticed some ads on the site for Dos Equis’ Cargo Hunt, the brew’s online scavenger hunt game/contest suited only for the most interesting people. Complete with backstory, interactive games and prizes galore, the clever beer company has created what they’re touting as the world’s most interesting game.
For die-hard fans and strangers to the game alike, Dos Equis will be hosting a one-day-only real-life version of the Internet sensation on 21 July 2010 at a secret location in NYC. Participants will be able to compete in character-testing events such as walking through a bug-pit or making their way through a patch of quicksand. The full night of competition will be giving away some serious prizes, not to mention food, drinks, and live performances. Regardless of your level of adventure, the night is sure to make an impression on anybody.
Unfortunately for most, the most interesting event is exclusively for the most interesting people. CH readers are in luck, though, as they’ve already made the cut. We’re giving away ten pairs of tickets to some lucky, fast-typing readers who believe they’re qualified to be there. The first ten to write on our Facebook fan page with what they consider to be the most interesting CH story of the last week will automatically win a pair of tickets, as well as a chance to win more of the event’s exclusive prizes. Head over to Facebook.com/CoolHunting to enter, and remember that you can’t enter without being a fan of our page first.
