Rooms with great view

I think the best you can have in your home is large windows looking at, not your neighbor's laundry across the street, but the view of a peaceful lake or the urban landscape of a city! My favorite is the big window-painting illusion that has the best view of Paris, the Eiffel Tower!

"Six Architects" posters by Andrea Gallo

While I was surfing on the internet I discovered this incredible set of posters, named "Six Architects" and they show the main design features of six iconic architects! The artist's name is  Andrea Gallo and they will be available for sale soon! Which one would you get? Frank Lloyd Wright, Le Corbusier, Louis Kahn, Alvar Aalto or Walter Gropius?

LACK shelves

For those who don't speak the IKEAish language fluently, LACK is the IKEA's shelves collection and some coffee and side tables of the same style! They are really simple minimal shelves that have concealed mounting fittings and they seem like floating from the wall. The best part is their price that doesn't exceed the 20 euros/pounds! (click here to see all the LACK products and their prices!) Have a look and take some ideas about how you can use these incredible shelves into your house!

Photo of the day!

I'm tired of seeing colorless dining rooms without personality! My advice is: add color, joy and don't be afraid of the mix'n'match style! Summer is almost here so celebrate it with colors in your home, in your hommie!

Handmade Ceramics

For a long time a wanted to write about the ceramics of Caroline Swift but when I finally decided to do, her site was "under construction". So now it's the right time after seeing a post on Busy Being Fabulous that reminded me of Caroline's work! They are so beautifully crafted and seem almost fragile! I'm absolutely in love with the photography of her products and the total white aesthetic that the final result gives you!

DIY IKEA

I see very often in blogs posts about IKEA's brand new blog which shows smart decorating combinations and DIY ideas to transform your IKEA furniture into unique pieces for your house! The only bad thing is that it's only in Swedish and you can't understand...ANYTHING! Anyway, at least it has nice pictures! Get some ideas!

Marble lamps

This small lamps made of marble grab my attention while I was searching online! It's pretty incredible how a material that looks "heavy" and "solid" can easily be fragile and translucent! The Orbit Spot is made in that way in order to be placed in different positions and use its light as requested. It is available from YmerAndMalta and there will be 20 limited edition lamps from each color, black and white.
