Perfect Pairings

These are some of my current favorite seating + side table pairings. All eye candy in my humble opinion!

Eu/phoria Chairs by Paola Novone

I'm madly in love with these eu/phoria chairs designed by Paola Novone, manufactured by Eumenes. I want them in my dining room around a more traditional wood table...or at my desk....or in my room...or in my living room. You get the picture.

Knoll Kids

Hi guys. Just wanted to say sorry for not posting in a week. I've been busy working on a dentist's office, which is new to me. I'll share photos when it's further along. In case you need to know anything about sheet vinyl, I'm your girl. So, I know classic mid century modern furniture scaled down for kids is sort of a played out topic but these images are too friggin cute not to share. These pieces are all offered through Knoll Kids. After all of these years Noguchi, Saarinen and Bertoia are still the designers to beat. Scale 'em up, scale 'em down, do them in neon, it doesn't matter- the cool factor is never going away. Which piece is your favorite?

But First Coffee

Number 1. If you live in Vegas, go to Sambalatte in Boca Park and have some coffee. You are sucky if you don't support this place. Best cup of coffee I have had outside of Spain. Number 2. How cute are these lounge chairs I found on Esty? They were reupholstered in coffee bean sacks and I think they are so flippin cute! Now go get a cup of joe with your sweetie this weekend.

Upholstered Seating by Vibieffe that Can Turn a Head.

There is something special about this seating collection by Vibieffe. Let's see if I can put my finger on it. It's the perfect balance of masculine and feminine and modern and traditional and colorful and muted. I know that was just about the worst grammar ever but you know what I mean, right?! Point made. It's just about perfect in my book. Maybe some pattern on those throw pillows is all I could improve but if you are looking for upholstered seating than this is worth taking a second look at. You're welcome.

Sofa Love

Grandma floral fabric+modern sofa= FAB! I am so in love with the image above. Nothing says decadence to me like an expensive piece of furniture dressed in the most beautiful and impractical print possible. One day when I have my own office I hope to sport something like this in the lobby- only with a crazy Missoni print.

Even just a sofa in a bold color makes a huge statement!

White. The boldest color of them all. *especially if you have 1 dog, 1 cat and 3 little boys

Ah. The Chesterfield, getting some major air time these days for obvious reasons. Quirky, humorous and the perfect mix and masculine and feminine.

Furniture Love Story

It's a love story marked by furniture. The Mies Van Der Rohe Barcelona Chair is the first piece of furniture that I fell in love with in design school. In my first furniture history class I discovered there is a lot to learn about world history based on what kind of chairs the behinds of the influential sat in! The Barcelona Chair has a rich story and if you consider yourself a history buff, feel free to read on here. For me this chair represents the point in time where I fell in love with design and not coincidentally my architect, aka, my husband.

This classic side table designed by Architect, Eileen Gray in 1927 for her famous house in Cap Martin now sits in my living room. I have always loved this piece and about 4 years ago my husband surprised me with it for my birthday. It's sleek, clean and totally tough as nails! It was also designed by a female architect in a time when the only thing a woman was designing was a plan to escape!

Ah, the Eames Lounge Chair. It's like the holy grail for us. Designed by the husband and wife team, Charles and Ray Eames, this lounge chair is the epitome of modern design. In 1956 this lounge chair came on the scene and it's not going anywhere people. In my opinion, the sexiest rooms in the world hold this chair and is object of our affections! Someday, after the kids are grown and half-way trustworthy, we'll splurge and add this little piece of history to our own home.

Jonathan Adler Junior

I know that most of us are just trying to get rid of our Ikea and move on to big girl furniture so the thought of our little ones having this nice of stuff makes us a little crazy BUT we still can't help but loving it, can we? Jonathan Adler knows his way around color and pattern so it only seems natural that a kids line would be next. Quite frankly, I would take any of these for myself in a heartbeat. *on a sidenote, I will periodically be adding links to fabulous sponsors. Please check them out!

I'm doing a little research for a friend who wants to redesign a few rooms. She loves color and I thought these might tickle her fancy. They tickle mine.
