"Breaking Rules" (?)

As a teenager, breaking rules are something i familiar of. Not that i proud, but sometimes I just get bored with the old rules and want to do it in my own way. It does bring me to a lot of trouble because each exploration always worth some lessons. However I still do not think that breaking rules is a bad thing. Especially when it comes to design.

Design will be more lively if it has variation, not the same old things over and over again. There are always some conventional rules toward anything that somehow restrain us to come up with something different. For example in interior design such as don't paint a small space with dark color because it will make the room smaller, don't mix old and new piece,don't mix metals, every color in the room has to to be match and etc etc. Even if it is true, we don't necessarily need to follow every single one of them.

Here are some "breaking rules" interior design from the grey home architects.

Who said that lamps should always put in the ceiling or above? Put it below the bed to prevent the dazzling light directly into our eyes when we are asleep!

Looking for a daring wall display? Well, fear not to put your real size motorcycle on the wall!!

Who said about don't mix pattern when it is actually a so much fun to see!

Wash basin has to have a sink hole? Not anymore!

Need bed to sleep in? Try this!

Bed should not necessarily higher than the floor. Make it flat so we will never fall from bed.

Other unusual yet stunning design from Till Konneker inspired from his small apartment studio. He made a small cube in the living room for a storage room and a bed for guess.

Adding this cube means an additional space for books, shoes and jacket hanger. It doesn't have to be a conventional book shelves, or a cupboard, but a cube that contains it all.

He doesn't seem to care about having bed in living room since it is comfortable to sleep in.

It also can store many things inside. So in order to manage all things in his small studio, he easily making space of his own without caring that the small room is initially only holding a small amount of things. He is "breaking rule" with his own way and it works pretty well since he has accomplished his goal and find the workaround solution of his problem. 

The conclusion is we don't need to always stick in to conventional way, we can find and even make  our own way and we can be the RULES BREAKER!
