Simple, geometric and peaceful. The pattern conjures images of a painstakingly maintained zen garden. The concentric squares remind me of West Elm's beautiful carved wood tile wall art pieces they introduced a couple of years ago.

I can see this rug being used to create a luscious sanctuary.

Magazine Table

First to recommend

2 people recommended this item

Description

The simple and elegant Magazine Table is one of the best ways to keep that pile of celebrity trash rags from taking over your home! Designed to be simple and functional, the table provides reasonable storage for your most recent periodicals. The inherent limitation on how much you can store will keep you from accumulating too much.

Available in white oak, walnut and black.

FLOR @ Target

First to recommend

Description

I love all things modular... this love affair does not end with carpeting. When Interface, the world's largest manufacturer of carpet and pioneer in sustainability introduced FLOR, a fabulous modular carpet tile system I was thrilled. Now, its available at Target in 4 styles.

FLOR tiles are arranged to your taste in almost any room. Each square tile measures 19.7". The tiles can be cut to fit special spaces. A light adhesive holds the corners in place on hard surfaces. Each tile can be removed, washed or replaced easily without disturbing adjacent tiles. Should you wish to do so, you can take FLOR with you when you move!

The price at Target doesn't necessarily make them more affordable - a six pack is $59.99 vs. $9.99 per tile at DWR. The six pack is enough to make a rather large area rug. Different designs / patterns can be mixed to make unique layouts.

Target seems to have an exclusive design though more styles are available at DWR. Still, if nothing else, this will expose more people to FLOR.

Graphic Bee Console

First to recommend

Description

Every room deserves one piece of extraordinary furniture that captures everyone's attention as soon as they enter the room. This piece is fun, beautiful and responsibly made too!

The Graphic Bee Console is a work of art designed by Iannone Sanderson in Philadelphia. Though sleek and minimal, its also fun and wonderfully crafted from a great combination of materials. Underneath a slick white gloss laminate is a frame made of kirei board, a kind of engineered wood made from the depleted stalks of Sorghum grass. Heat, pressure and a non-toxic adhesive are combined to make this lightweight but durable board. Cut into the face of the laminate is the image of a small bee hiding among large silhouettes of chrysanthemum flowers. This image reveals the beautiful texture of the kirei board. Not to be forgotten or played down, the legs are simple and elegant - made from stainless steel and more kirei.

Three doors, adjustable shelves, hand made, eco-friendly, made in the USA.

Essence by iittala

First to recommend

Description

I make few exceptions for trendy wine glasses - certainly no color, no swirls, bubbles or glitter are allowed. My belief is that the glass should not take away from the wine - period. Still, I cannot turn away from the Essence glasses by one of my favorite glass makers in the world: iittala! Because Essence is so uniquely simple and elegant, you wont need as many glasses as you would normally (hint, hint, the reason behind the name). This design would look great in alost any setting, certainly helping to elevate the overall decor.

Essence includes glasses for red and white wine, a champagne flute and a cute cordial glass.

Lockport Sofa

Description

Crate & Barrel knows how to shake things up with good design but now they are raising the standard of how environmentally friendly furniture should be. The Lockport Apartment Sofa is a clean and casual design with lots to love on the inside (mostly how its made). Recycled fibers, soy foam cushions, water based finish and sturdy but sustainably forested frame come together to make a comfy piece of furniture that is easy to feel good about.

Pablo Brazo Lamps

First to recommend

Description

The awkward honeymoon between traditional lamps and LED technology seems to be over. Companies are finally making wonderfully designed LED lamps (versus fudging LEDs into regular lamps). No exception is this sexy thing! The Pablo Brazo lamps are sleek, compact and easy on the eyes. If pure aesthetics aren't enough, they added function too - the beam of light can be adjusted to your needs.
