Kvadrat Clouds

These Clouds are a collaboration between Danish textile manufacturer, Kvadrat, and Ronan and Erwan Bourourllec. It's a tile concept that can take many shapes and dimensional forms, and are put together using special rubber bands. Using these would be a great way to create cubicles in an office, or separate space in a studio apartment.

Final Decline & Total Collapse

A really amazing series of 50 poster illustrations by Toronto based artist, Anthony Gerace. I love the different patterns and era each chair and piece of furniture comes from. 


"Final Decline & Total Collapse is a series of 50 posters dealing with themes of loss and decline through the image of antiquated chairs and lamps from bygone eras."

Apartment Therapy: Room for Color

Being newlywed and all of a sudden having to share an apartment with my husband, I am always scouring Apartment Therapy for new ideas on how to take advantage of our small space. I've been following their new contest: Room for Color, where readers were able to submit colorful rooms from their own homes to be voted on by the public! I think the best way to browse the entries is by clicking on your favorite color combinations on the palette page.

Here are just a few of my favorite entries:

Jen's "Motley Missoni" Bathroom

Chris & Dolores's "Transit: CMYK" Guest Room

 

 Jacquie's "New Orleans" Kitchen

Keely's "Parisian Chic" Living Room

Don't forget to vote for the Grand Prize Winner, coming up November 1st - 8th.
