exactly at what size would tetris be lifesize?



a marriage of two of my obsessions (tetris and furniture design), brave space design presents the greatest modular shelving unit ever! despite the fact that the sole purpose of tetris is to mess around and goof off, at $600 per geometric piece, brave space is clearly not messing around. (however, they are generous in offering 2/3 scale version at 1/2 the price).

target totally has those shelves and they are on clearance right now for like $15.

target has rearrangable tetris piece shelves? where have i been? apparently not target.

as much as i love target, though, last time i bought cheap cute shelving there... well, i guess they are still standing, but barely. i'm looking for more or less a permanent replacement.

it is possible, but even the instructions recommend that you are highly skilled working with wood. as i am not very experienced, it may not be the best project for me to take on right now. maybe if and when i complete one or all four of the tentative construction projects i already have planned with my loftmate, i might be confident enough to take these on. as of now, i know i'll just mess them up and they won't be pretty, and that would make them not cool anymore.
