A child at heart

I found the website of this amazingly great designstudio from Eindhoven called Ontwerpduo via the (also great) blog Madame Hervé. I've always been faschinated by miniatures and how their proportions are different from real life size objects. This is exactly what Ontwerpduo has been working on in this project called "When I was little." They've simply taken the proportions of a doll's sized dressing table and scaled it back to adult size. The result is this fairytale like piece of furniture with the same kind of magic as in these photos . I love it!
Someone once metioned to me that there somewhere in NYC would be a bar that was completely bulit up around the concept that everything (tables, chairs, glasses... everything!) was made slightly bigger than normal to create the feeling of you being a child again. (A child drinking beer...!) Has anyone of you heard of this place? Or maybe even been there? Has it even existed? Is it there still?
Anyways, I am completely in awe of the conceptual and wonderful world of the Ontwerpduo so be sure to look into their other work, especially this project!
