Tres Tintas BCN


Out of Barcelona, not only do I love their papers, but their advertisements are fantastic. So original. Their website is even cooler. Check it out here.



People To Watch


For the last 5 years Elle Decoration magazine has held its Prodeco competition to find the best-designed everyday objects on the Polish market. The competition is open to producers, distributors, craftsmen and design studios.

My favorite by far were the chest of drawers designed by Jarosław Bełza. It is composed of wood from around the world in a patchwork-like pattern and the ceramic trivets called Koronki (Lace) by Joanna Bylicka.

Talk about your metallics...


What about this disposable plastic bottle covered in silver from Pampaloni for 40 euro? I think I just might consider drinking water again. :)

Informal Formalities...

crownhilldinnerplatewatts
The Crown Hill Dinner Plate, available at Watts Contemporaries, was inspired by a sketch of a peacock drawn by Keith Murray, Watt's resident designer during the Late 1940's and 50's, yet how appropriate it is for today.

Make Up The Wall

makeupthewall3
Make Up The Wall, a design concept by Maria Kirk Mikkelsen, combines the use of aluminum stencils and stickers as a means of expressing yourself on your own painted walls, in much the same way a graffiti painter would. The layout is up to you. Keep it simple, or cover the wall. You simply paint the wall in your favorite color. Place the template on the wall and draw around it using both markers and crayons. You can keep it an outline or fill in as you wish. There are 5 different designs to choose from. Check out the site and see the different designs. If you can't locate a retailer near you (which pertains to all those living in the US) you can contact them directly via their email at mail@makeupthewall.com. Enjoy!

Caprice Sofa at Pier I

pier1sofa
Pier I just recently came out with the Caprice sofa. The line also includes a handsome chair and ottoman. Priced at $999.00, this seems like a great buy. I love the lines and the style but I do wonder how comfortable it will be. If anyone sits on it before me please let us know how it rates.
