Time for special pillows!

Submitted by pavelina on Sat, 04/10/2010 - 16:41

Lost City has an interesting approach on pillow fabric design. Whether it is inspired by crime scenes (yes, creepy!) or medieval drawings, every pillow is unique, and worthy to be in your comfy house.

Forensic pillows are inspired by macabre scenes, but not in the way you probably think. Finger prints, a subtle hair strand, blood spatter patterns, they all feed designers' inspiration, are reconsidered, and the final result is as artistic it can be.

Our strong advice is to invest in Litill Terrariums, small ecosystems made with hand blown glass from the Pacific Northwest. We saw them on litill.com and simply fall in love.

Let's talk about Gridy

Submitted by pavelina on Mon, 04/05/2010 - 22:40

GRIDY is a design firm established in 2009 and based in Oslo, Norway. Its owners, two young designers, Lars Olav Dybdal and Wilhelm Grieg Teisner, have a solid background in this domain, from Bergen Academy of Arts and the Danish Design School. Their main interest? Product for home/office decor and spatial design.

Browsing through their work, we found futuristic, original items that will suite so well in your homes! Evil eye is a floor lamp, fun and different from any other lamp you've seen. This lamp plays the connection between the shade and the bulb. Rather than hiding the light source inside, the bulb brakes through the surface of the shade.

Sculptural furniture by Seth Rolland

Submitted by dorra on Tue, 05/19/2009 - 19:41

I would love to have my home decorated entirely with designer pieces instead of soulless mass-production furniture, which is if I had a home of my own. Until then I can only dream of fitting in my imaginary bedroom a whimsical, curly Hayes cabinet and can only sigh for writing at the smooth, graceful Trimerous desk.

Hayes cabinetFurniture designer Seth Rolland shows his love for nature in every piece of home furnishings he creates. The simplicity and dynamic of the natural forms give his main inspiration while sustainably harvested wood is the basic material for the organic designed pieces.

Chromatic tendencies from Emma Gardner

Being a couch potato has its physical and psychical repercussions, especially if you neglect the environment part. Most people define home accessories as frivolous things, and that they can deprive from this unnecessary need.

But I insist on telling you that, there is a world dedicated to these kind o things, especially to making environments feel more like genuine indoor happiness spots. Eco friendly environments are not enough for household designers these days.

Modern contemporary bedroom furniture

Submitted by andreea on Sun, 04/12/2009 - 17:26

Nowadays, people seem to be more aware of the furniture they buy, wanting to know its origin of fabrication, materials used and so on.  All environments are trying to be more eco friendly, by adopting futuristic pieces of furniture made out of plexi glass, fiber glass, plastic, metal and more.

Less wood and more combinations of other materials lead those incredible big sales in a furniture store. The trend has already been set. Take for example this incredible bedroom, which beautifully combines the raw material with modern ones.

Framed light – lamp by Julian Mayor

Submitted by florin on Sun, 03/08/2009 - 16:44

British furniture designer and artist Julian Mayor has created many works during his career, among them are also the lamp. This project is named «framed light», there is neither shade nor beautiful legs. Although such a lamp may seem too simple and boring, you must understand that there is a special lamp. With such thin set of rules he created the frame, more like a figure of a polyhedron from a textbook on geometry or drawing than in the shade.
