Are you someone who likes to be different? I am. I don’t mind the status quo. I don’t disdain or necessarily protest the way the world goes around. I do, however, like to feel that I have my own style and unique taste regardless of what is considered to be proper or even acceptable sometimes. That may be a bit naive, I admit, but I still strive to feel comfortable in my choices because, I like them, not because they are in vogue.

This is true, even in the small or unimportant choices I make day to day. So when I look for something to adorn my home, I like to look for something I find unique or just a bit different to fit what I feel is my style. In the time I’ve been writing about home entertainment furniture, among other topics, I’ve found some of them that I wanted to share with people who have similar feelings. Here they are, the unique audio-video furniture I would like to find a way to incorporate into my home.

I love the entertainment furniture that is made by those who are against technology getting into their personal life. Seriously, I have even found some pretty exciting entertainment centers made by our friendly Amish community. Now, my particular understanding of the Amish community is that they like to preserve traditional values and methods of doing things. As this is the case, they refrain from using motor vehicles such as cars or tractors. They do not watch TV or videos and they don’t use cell phones. However, what they do is make furnishings and other handmade anything that is unparalleled in quality and craftsmanship. Maybe it’s a little cynical, but I love to support my modern technology with furniture made by those who refuse to take part in it.

Last year, I attended a “green” fair, and came across some very interesting work by a company that want to preserve the rain forests. OK, maybe that wasn’t their whole focus, but it was a part of it for sure.

The name was Greentea Designs and they travel the world to gather “reclaimed wood” which is basically wood taken from a a structure that they would normally throw out or burn somewhere. In this way, the do good for the environment and can make amazing end piece furniture that anyone would love to have on display in their house. Take a look at some of their work. It is second to none. It is a bit pricier, but hey, you’re saving the rain forest.

The last thing I wanted to mention is something that seems to have walked right out of the movies and into your living room. A motorized entertainment center. That’s right, with the touch of a button on your remote control on a switch on the wall, you can reveal your set as if by magic. Revealing itself from what seems like an average furniture piece, you can amaze your friends and family with a futuristic style that few people have hanging around the house. Here’s the one drawback I have found. It looks somewhat like a bar so if you accidentally place something on it and then open it… bad news bears. But really, how cool would that be?
