How the material of death infuses life into your interiors?
When it comes to coffins, the only thing that pops in to my head is a man wearing black robe with fangs that are jumping to bite you. Well, in any case the only thing that you can relate coffins is with death, funerals and graveyards. It is definitely not easy for you to sit on a chair that looks like a coffin. As far as I am concerned, the idea itself cropped from my overconfident liking of all things deadly and dark. As far as you are concerned, I will make it sure that after you finish reading this post, you also fall in the category of overconfident lovers of coffins and other things that come related with it.
A blissful resting peace for times to come. With these eco-friendly materials and awesome colorful design it will also infuse much wanted life in your homes with uniqueness.

Too late or too early for the Halloween? It is definitely not. The coffin Couch by Von Erickson is just so perfect for homes who want to have a unique furniture design. This couch has velvet covered foam cushion and uses a metal spring construction seat. To make it like a coffin, the backrest con be completely folded down for a fully shut position. Made from unused coffins due to some slight cosmetic damage, the coffin couch are comfortable enough as each of the unused coffins are reconfigured for comfort purposes. Some may find it awkward to use, but some will surely find it unique especially those who are doing funeral service
Coffin Cabinet
This cabinet is handmade and has a creepy image on its cover that is screen printed.
Here’s a hand-crafted coffin cabinet, constructed out of hard poplar with the classic nossy image silkscreened on the lid. the coffin is secured with glued-up 3/16″ woods dowels for extra strength–no cheap nailgun brads here. all coffins come with hardware and hanging instructions, and measures approx 18″ tall by 9″ wide by 3″ deep.

Coffin Shelves
Designed by William Warren, these shelves can be converted in to a functional coffin when needed.
Some might think having your own coffin in your house is morbid, but not William Warren. In fact, the furniture and product designer created Shelves for Life, a build-it-yourself Ikea style bookcase that, after you’ve expired, can be reassembled into a coffin. Not only is it good for the environment, it’ll be one less thing your family has to worry about when dealing with your remains. The kits sell for $579 (or 350 GBP) a piece and come stained in a classic blonde wood which just begs for some serious customization. Creepy and awesome.
I explain if the foundation repair is actually covered by homeowners insurance and the actual foundation repair cost. We disaggregated these foundation repair costs and determined, the cost per pier when footings or piers are the solutions for the settlement of a foundation.
To repair a foundation, the service provider might require an underpinning system using piers: push piers vs helical piers where helical piers are preferable for residential real estate objects, despite their costs. Also when you compare helical piers with concrete footings, we can determine that helical piers are more cost-efficient than concrete footings, in my opinion.
There are always new methods for repairing foundations. One of them that we investigate here is the Powerbrace foundation repair method.
Animals can be a problem when they live near the foundation: In the following articles, we describe how to remove them and how to prevent them from digging and burrowing. The articles are about animals digging holes around the foundation or when they are burrowing below concrete, below a concrete slab, or between gaps in concrete footings, for example.
I explain here the process of concrete lifting or concrete raising, which can be done through mudjacking or slabjacking. We recommend the latter, which injects polyurethane foam.
Hello, I am Marcio. I am an architect and designer, alma mater is Mackenzie. Retired in theory, but an architect never retires completely. Along with architectural projects, I am a filmmaker and have completed some short documentaries. Filmmaking and design are my passions. In HomeQN I write about home decoration and foundations. The goal is to teach homeowners to DYI as much as possible, and when this is not possible, enable them through knowledge, to evaluate service quotations and choose the best service technicians.
