This Papermen Coat Rack from Dutch by Design would look really cute in a kid's room. It's the perfect combination of practical and adorable.
These "Friend" Felt Boxes with Bamboo tops from Branch are really cool. There's something really cozy about felt, but these are sturdy enough to not only hold the top up, but you can also stack them.
I think I need to put one of these Cubby Organizer Wall Shelves from Smart Furniture into every room in my house. There's always little things that you lose: the remote in the living room, glasses in the bedroom, cell phone everywhere...
There's something really cool and strange about floating furniture like this Bungalow Credenza from Exclusively Home. It's crazy, that thing should have legs, but it still looks really cool.
This is the prefect shelf to have during college and the first couple years after. You're moving around almost yearly and usually doing so in a small car. The shelf from MojoWorkin's Etsy shop doesn't have any little screws to get lost and it can come apart, and lay completley flat. Plus, the swoopy-ness is really cool.
This Manhattan Chest of Drawers from Graham and Green is completely different from just about all other furniture. I think that all the mirrors make it less heavy and helps it blend into a room better. And you could always check out your shoes before heading out.
I love the fun shapes and colors of these MOBOS Modular Storage Bins from Exclusively Home. I could think of a bunch of places in my apartment where these could be great. I could put a couple in my sewing area to hold all my odds and ends, one on either side of the bed to hold whatever books my husband and I are reading, and a couple in the baby's room to store all of his toys.
Now technically this is supposed to be an art station with storage from Eastvold Furniture at Exclusively Home, but I love it for just storage in general. The entire thing is on wheels so you can roll it anywhere you want. The top just lifts off, and one side is a chalkboard, the other is laminate that can be doodled on with dry erase markers. I'd love to have these in my sewing area, and I'd keep one whole project in each and label them on the top.
I love this trunk inspired furniture from Graham and Green. It's really quirky and a great change from the normal bedroom furniture. Plus, the next time you move, you can just roll them out the door.
Now, I would personally just call this an armoire, but the Pottery Barn calls it the Cynthia Chiffonier. Either way, it's a really nice alternative to the usual dresser, though I would have to call it a "chiffonier" when anyone asks.
So these stackable cabinets and cubbies from 2Modern are supposed to be for kids, but I love them. They would be great for my kitchen since storage kind of sucks.
I think this Radcliffe Etagere from Jonathan Adler at Unica Home is just a little too luxe for my home, but it's just too pretty to not want. I love the Greek key cutouts on the side, and that it tries to be simple with the shiny white lacquer.
This LAX Wall-Mounted Shelf from Mash Studios at Feel More Human would be a great to hide all your electronic stuff under a flat screen TV. You'd have to drill a hole or two for the wires, but you'd be able keep the cable box, DVD player and video game stuff behind closed doors.
I love the idea of furniture with multiple uses, like storage that's also seating. This Little Twin Cub cabinet from Swigg at SupermarketHQ is a great example. It's perfect for any small area that needs some storage, like a entryway or kid's room, plus it's made of all sustainable materials.
I love the simplicity of this wine rack from Modern Cellar at 2Modern. I would hang a couple of them throughout a room and search out good wines with fun labels to display like artwork.

This TrueModern Low Dresser from Design Public would be a great thing to have as a tv stand or in the dining room since it has two different types of storage. Plus, the interior is painted a bright green that's a great pop of color.
I love the cutout detail in this Hana media stand from Pier 1 Imports. You can hide everything away, but the remote controls could probably still reach their recievers even with the doors closed. And the design is subtle enough that you could have it in a room with a lot of other accessories, or you could let it stand alone.
Unfortunately, this awesome Weltfeld shelving unit from Matthias Ries Design Office is only a prototype, but the second they start making them, I would run out and get a bunch. I'm guessing that it's made out of recycled, heavy duty canvas. When you unroll it, it makes up a complete shelving unit that would be perfect for an entry way or office, but when you move, you can just roll it back up.
