Now here’s an invention that’ll have you whispering to yourself, “Ah, now I’ve seen it all.” The Land Peel is a floor mat designed by Japanese industrial design student Shin Yamashita. While a floor mat may not seem all that exciting at first glance, hold onto your seat.

The mat, although it can lie flat as one integrated piece, can also be taken up in sections to become an entire room’s worth of furnishings. All you have to do is pop, prop or fold up a section of the mat and you instantly have an item of utility.

The Land Peel mat was designed with functionality and limited space in mind. The entire product itself can easily by folded up and stored away when not in use, or just left flat on the floor. When you’re ready, you can turn this mat into anything an urban- or small-apartment-dwelling-body might need.

Grab the side of the mat, flip it around and you now have a table top for working on, eating at or setting your laptop upon.

This is a great solution for dorms, small apartments or a child’s room. And with all of that extraneous furniture out of the way, think of the room you’ll have when the mat’s not in use. There’s no word on the cost of the Land Peel or where one can be purchased, but if it’s as good as it seems, it’s sure to be readily available in no time flat.

Jennifer Heyns
I must admit that when my husband dragged me into the world of construction 15 years ago, I did not go quietly. The phrase "kicking and screaming" is probably what comes to his mind. But I’ve learned a lot through my experience with his company - from the planning and work required to design and build a house to the ideas and sweat equity that go into remodeling, expanding, and decorating a home. On my way to finding my passion for writing, I even enjoyed a short career as a kitchen and bathroom designer. I soon found house, home and construction-type publications seeking me out, thrilled at having found someone who knows about the topic matter from firsthand experience and who just so happens to be able to write a decent article. My life isn’t all about writing, though. I have two sons, 10 and 12, and those boys (husband and dog included) just don’t raise themselves. We spend a leisurely life in the countryside, enjoying the fresh air, growing gardens (mostly for the sake of the deer), and watching the wildlife who share our property (and not just deer - owls, foxes, groundhogs, chipmunks and hummingbirds, too). For several years I've been successfully finding new ways to acquire quality, affordable healthcare for my family without an HMO. My first book, Bargaining for Our Lives is available now - see more about it (and me) at www.JenniferHeyns.com. On a good day I find time to say hello to all my followers on twitter, or to post a blog (my way of thwarting therapy appointments) at www.JenniferHeyns.blogspot.com. On a great day, though, I also get to bake, knit or make crafts - after the boys are asleep and the laundry and dishes are done, of course.
