Lumière Brothers - The Serpentine Dance (c.1899). The Lumière Brothers filmed this in black and white, and then hand coloured (probably with little paint brushes) each frame of the film. You can see the full movie here.

Oliver Peake: Japanese Bed

“This was an interesting commission. The client wanted an entirely sunken bed with hidden storage and invisible heating! We couldn’t go down as it was on the first floor so we raised it up. A simple solution elegantly executed, the floor lifts up to reveal storage ‘bins’ with a matching stepped drawer unit.” Materials Solid maple throughout.

I’ve never seen the second picture before! That puts a whole new spin on things.
