If my gym had a giant screen playing movies in a dark room, I would be going to the gym a LOT more often.
This library noise guide, which turns red if you're being too loud, could be helpful in a ton of other places where you're supposed to be quiet, too. Not to sound like a curmudgeon, but people are too gosh darn loud these days!!!

Maybe this isn't functionally cool, but as a book-lover, I NEED this bench in my home one day.
This also isn't functionally cool, but this bar in Denver with a Lite-Brite table feels like the future I would've wanted as a kid.
This discreet sign at a library for anyone who doesn't feel comfortable asking a librarian for help finding books on these topics is just such a good, compassionate idea.
Why doesn't all food have clear cans so I can see what it looks like and if it's still good???
I'm gonna need every battery to have USB ports from now on so you can easily recharge them.
