Artichoke pendant

Posted on Tue, 22 May 2007 by KiM

The artichoke pendant is a classic design created by Poul Henningsen in 1958. It is such a stunningly beautiful light, and due to it’s popularity (and hefty price tag), has often been replicated. It looks incredible in modern settings, and makes quite a striking focal point.

This is a rental apartment designed by WORK Architecture Company for Sharon Coplan Hurowitz, an art advisor. It is such a bright fun space….would love to come home to this every day.

Venetian mirrors

Posted on Wed, 16 May 2007 by KiM

Mirrors are fabulous…particularly glamorous venetian mirrors. Mirrors are perfect to use in a small space to make it appear larger…and venetian mirrors also can add an extra bit of glamour with their ornate detail. They are suitable in any room, over a bathroom sink, over a bed, over a dining room buffet, in a hallway…

Ode to Tord Boontje

Posted on Sun, 13 May 2007 by KiM

I hereby declare today Tord Boontje day. (Well, how about Mother’s Day until noon and then Tord Day from noon on). I was poking around on his website and thought that it was about time we did a Tord post. Because he rocks. It’s as simple as that. These photos of his whimsical designs from his website speak for themselves. Let’s all share a collective *sigh*.

Here are some photos I found that feature Tord lighting (plus one devoted Tord fan). There’s a store here that sells his Midsummer light and I am sooooooo going this week to get one….or two….or three….
