Don't Lift A Finger!

While this doesn't have much to do with interior/architectural design, I thought that this little number here was just the niftiest darn thing I've ever seen!  I want one so bad!!!


It comes from the MoMA Store which also has loads of other really awesome little knick knacks!  At only $7 dollars and a variety of THREE different colors, it seems that I get these sooner rather than later!

The Most Interesting Collection Of Things I've Ever Seen

The Future Perfect is a strange website...  You'll cruise through their "Objects" or "Designers" and wonder to yourself... what is the purpose of The Future Perfect?  Then it'll hit you.  Kooky!  They just wanna be kooky silly billies! All of their items are quality pieces, but err on the side of a bit stranger than the things you'd normally find at say... a Bed Bath & Beyond.  According to their website, "Most things at The Future Perfect are charming and unique," and I can't agree more.  The Future Perfect has a wide assortment of knick knacks, furniture and dinnerware, all to cater to the kookier side of ourselves!

A.P.F. Munn

Really, almost all mirrors look the same don't they?  They come in the standard shapes of rectangle, square, or circle.  Occasionally, you'll come across an interesting mirror with an amazing trim or maybe the mirror is an antique mirror and that really spices things up, right?  Well, at A.P.F. Munn, they sometimes deviate from the standards and create something that is not only unique, but drop dead gorgeous!

Lusive Decor

It has been nearly a year since I first met a designer from Lusive Decor, a company that was virtually unknown.  Recently, I received a little note from one of my email threads about Lusive Decor and I decided to take a look at what they have to offer. Let it be known... I was blown away!  So many awesome pieces that I could have implemented in my school projects.

With such a variety of lighting ranging from contemporary to traditional, I think Lusive Decor might just be one of the best custom lighting sites that I have seen!

William Yeoward

William Yeoward has some of the most refreshing selection of furniture, case goods, and upholstery that I've seen in ages.  His pieces are definitely the show stoppers in each room.  I love that little bit of bling that each piece brings.  Two of my favorites are the Arley Mirrored Sideboard with beautiful chestnut wood and the Marcel Lamp with it's unique hourglass shape that definitely gives this lamp some va-va-voom!
