This probably would have been a better post for the beginning of the summer, but I just ran across these over-sized floor cushions from The Kikoy Company. The bright, vibrant colors are reminiscent of madras and will surely brighten any room or outdoor party. These cushions would also make great pet beds. Get them now […]

From the website write up: “Created from the human forms, the Falling vase tumbles downwards while the Flying vase reaches for the sky”. As a pair, these two vases represent a dream and a nightmare, though I don’t think either one feels particulary nightmare-ish. They both are beautiful by themselves and could stand alone, though […]

I’ve restrained myself from sharing more wonderful wallpapers I’ve been finding, since I do share so many, but these designs were so beautiful that I had to share. Ferm Living US has two amazing collections of wallpaper, my favorite being the “Graphics in Nature” collection. They’ve taken silhouettes from nature and turned them into vibrant […]

I must have this light fixture. Made to hang from a ceiling, this lamp will cast a phenomenal shadow on surfaces and is a neat global accessory for a home. It’s ethnic without being too loud or out of place, plus it comes in a few different finishes that allow it to fit in many […]

So maybe putting this next to the stick lamp would be a little much, but these branches are wonderful and would be so much fun in a child’s room or any other room needing a delicate touch. These must be put in a room with lots of natural light, otherwise they can come off seeming […]

This is really thoughtful furniture. This double rocker was designed with the trust, in mind, that people gain when they work together towards a common goal. Thats why you can only rock in this chair with a companion as intended by the design. Philosophy in furniture design! A great concept. Check out more thoughtful designs […]

Have you ever considered having a headboard that was a piece of art? Well if not, you should ponder the thought while checking out the cool painted headboards by Vancouver artist Bill Wilkinson and offered to the public through the company one + only. These are technically paintings but are sized to be headboards, carefully […]

So I live in an apartment with a roommate, and though we have a sizable place, we still have extra boxes of stuff that have no place to live. So I’ve decided to invest in an attractive folding screen to put in a corner and store stuff behind it. I found these great screens at […]

Swedish designers are awesome. If you’re looking for sleek modern furniture, check out what these amazing minds have to offer first. The Superstructure chair by Swedish designer Bjorn Dahlstrom is made out of black stained wood planks and has a leather seat. I love that even though its Swedish, it has a tropical/palm feel to […]

Tommi Parzinger was a great designer who worked during the mid 20th century. His pieces are classic, although they still reflect the era in which they were made, giving them that great vintage feel. Palumbo Gallery features vintage Parzinger pieces as well as their own collection based on original Parzinger designs. Check out their great […]

If you read this blog regularly you know I have a place in my heart for interesting lighting (I have a great distaste for your basic overhead lighting). This piece, available through the boutique Orange, is a great wall covering as well as a great source of light for a room. Made in Germany in […]

I love vintage, mostly because it’s true that what’s old is new again, and because I like to give old objects new life. It’s great to have vintage pieces that serve as conversation pieces and to have “little somethings” that are unique scattered through out your dwelling, truly making a house a home. The website […]

They have a massive selection of frames, along with every thing else needed for the process, plus they have a great how to section and […]
