THANKS ED

(for some reason) I sometimes avoid things overly pretentious, but I guess it all depends.

This is pretty striking. They combine things I love and generate something new and exciting. I was always intrigued by lighting effects and this has reminded me how dramatic it can be and how essential it is. This truly reflects the importance of lighting, and that’s really my point here.

‘The Smiling Chair’ (designed by Hans J. Wegner 1963)


This chair I love. Why? I instantly loved it when I first saw it. I don’t really know why. Perhaps because it’s so very Scandinavian. It’s stylish and it’s contemporary, but still classic. The shape is slick and the curvy lines are sexy. It's light and simple. It would work so well in my living room and since I discovered the chair, every living room I’ve ever had has felt empty and naked. Until I get enough money to purchase this gorgeous piece, my home will NOT be complete.

Here's a selection, for your pleasure only.

‘WOW’..

..i thought. flats designed in a ‘Mad Men’ style, how exciting.

and then i looked a little bit closer...

a TERRIBLE attempt to be retro and it’s just another tacky 'box'.
