Beautiful Furniture Design

I would love to own a ‘Cloud’ table
designed by Anna and Marek Lorens.
Composed from a number of hexagonal
elements, the multi-functional table is
functional, beautiful, and playful all in one.
Made of plywood-and-aluminium it is available
in variety of configurations and finishes as well
as in a downsized, children’s version. I want.
Check out their website. They make some pretty
cool stuff.

Beautiful Workplace Design

I admire the creative design work done by Studio O+A.
They just get it right every time. Their latest “Star Wars”
inspired office for Giant Pixel Corp. located in
Silicon Valley, echos a cross between the look of
Charles and Ray Eames’s workshop and The Jetsons.
To capture a 1960s-era, but still futuristic look,
Cherry and O+A designer Neil Bartley settled on a
spare office with a few marquee pieces, including a large
perforated-steel screen that makes up the entryway.
The screen reads the opening crawl from Star Wars:
“A long time ago, in a galaxy far, far away…”
Check out all the wonderful work by Studio O+A.

Beautiful Pod Style Hotel

The whimsical hotel Qbic London City recently opened,
charming the pants off the budget conscious traveler.
This new, captivating hotel was designed by Blacksheep

with playful modular bedrooms, called Cubis, that are
slightly futuristic and perfectly fun mirroring its
East London location in Whitechapel, while keeping
in line with Qbic’s strong brand identity. The inviting
hotel is outfitted with modern Scandinavian furnishings
and mid-century finds, crossed with quirky elements
giving it a welcoming feel for guests.

Deliciously different.

Beautiful Hollywood Cabin

Mad Men‘s Vincent Kartheiser used to live in
a small one-room bungalow on a nondescript
Hollywood street”. But he had big plans for the little
580 SF house. Evoking a Japanese industrial feel,
it has a beautiful giant boulder sink. Local studio
Funn Roberts designed the space with a suspended
bed that drops from ceiling and a headboard made of
a huge slab of redwood fastened to the wall on hinges
so that, when the bed is raised, the piece of wood can
flip down to double as a desk.  Love the cleverly
designed bed; it works on a pulley-system
with a 300-pound counterweight hidden in the closet.
