say I want to assemble a pc on my own

I'd like a case that is not the usual greysh industrial purely functional unlively box

I'd like a piece of furniture

Maybe made of wood or linoleum or something

I'd have to keep this thing in my living room, it needs to be passable !

Suggestions welcome

Things Fall Together
A Guide to the New Materials Revolution

Today's researchers are exploiting newly understood properties of matter to program materials that physically sense, adapt, and fall together instead of apart. These materials open new directions for industrial innovation and challenge us to rethink the way we build and collaborate with our environment.

A newly published review of materials that undergo "aggregation induced emission" (AIE) -- new luminescent qualities of materials caused by intermolecular aggregation, not just the molecule itself.

A collaboration between Carl Redshaw (University of Hull) Ben Zhong Tang (one of the world's most-cited chemists, apparently!) and Xing Feng and Xiaohui Wang (Guangdong University of Technology)
