Minuscule PC Living Room a Crafty Solution for Unwanted Processors

— October 6, 2009 — Life-Stages
This PC living room is furnished with dollhouse fixtures including a sofa, cozy armchair and a little lamp (that actually lights up by plugging into one of the PC’s accessory power circuits). The tiny PC living room is perfect for a little family. This particular minuscule abode includes a gumball machine, a bottle of Coke and an edition of the New York Times.

This is a novel way to recycle your old PC towers, especially if you strip them for parts and are left with a half-empty shell. Make you own PC living room or any room for that matter -- heck, you could even make an entire PC dollhouse. Now, that’s something a MAC can’t do.
Trend Themes
1. Upcycling Personal Computers - Repurposing discarded PCs for novel furniture designs is an opportunity for upcycling and reimagining electronic waste.
2. Miniature Home Decor - Designing miniature furniture pieces and home decor to fit unique living spaces or for collectors is a trend inspired by the Cozy Computers design.
3. Integration of Technology and Home Decoration - The combination of decorative and functional technology in home decor is a trend that presents new possibilities for designers and developers.
Industry Implications
1. E-waste Recycling - The trend of upcycling personal computers presents an opportunity for the e-waste recycling industry to incorporate creative and sustainable solutions.
2. Home Decor and Furniture - The Cozy Computers design trend is inspiring the home decor and furniture industry to explore new ways to integrate technology into their products and designs.
3. Toy and Collectible Industry - The trend of miniature home decor and furniture inspired by the Cozy Computers design presents new opportunities for the toy and collectible industry to merge traditional and technological design elements.
