Karim Rashid....

We've never written about Karim because his stuff is kind of...something.  I'm not sure how to describe it so I won't try to and bore anyone!  But this new "Float" collection for the Spanish company Sancal is pretty fun, and awesome!  I love the bold colors and fun shapes.  Who says a couch must be similar only to a box?


It doesn't look like it's available yet on Sancal's website, but here is their site anyway: http://www.sancal.com/home.php

A classic beauty

I'm currently in love with this Clothing Rack 109 by Alvar Aalto, a Finnish design genius. Designed by Alvar Aalto in 1936, this natural birch clothing rack is fitted with four black hooks and features a sturdy birch-paneled top shelf. The side frames are made from birch laminate and are bent into a triangle shape to provide extra support for the shelf. Made in Finland by Artek.  I got one today (used) for a great deal.  High five to me! http://www.artek.fi/products/other/37
