  • Paper Installation By Peter Gentenaar

      Here is a beautiful thing to behold on a Sunday. I am enthralled by these ethereal works by Peter Gentenaar and can’t stop gazing at them. More than 100 of Peter Gentenaar’s paper sculptures were hung inside the Abbey church of Saint-Riquier in France. Peter’s sculptures are created by allowing pulp to dry and shrink in unison whilst attached to…

  • More Vintage Child Safety

      I had such a huge response to my first Vintage Child Safety post, that I thought these would interest also. This priceless photo above of the kids in the sack was snapped in Zurich who knows when! Via: MeatSweatHelmet    Believe it or not, this is not tongue-in-cheek. The Pit Bull was known and…

  • Ibride Junior Central Book Shelf

      I seem to have shelves on the brain this week! And what unique Bear shelves from the French company, Ibride, who are best known for their funky platters. These bears come in two sizes, the large one above or the Junior below. And great the way the shelves go all the way around and…

And it is all environmentally friendly, since…

  • Tour of the Etsy Headquarters – Brooklyn

      I had never really thought about Etsy (the online marketplace for vintage, handmade and all sorts of artistic objects) even having an office before one of my artist friends, who had her art studio right next to Etsy would tell me about how amazing their office is! My friend recently moved out and guess,…

  • “The Obliteration Room” by Yayoi Kusuma (& Kids)

      You know we are complete goners for installations made by kids, (here’s another one), so this is right up our alley! This is the breathtaking result when thousands of kids get to stick thousands of stickers all over an empty bright white room: Obliteration! What a great idea this amazing installation is, for the Queensland Gallery of…

  • Amazing Beds

    After my post on Chairs, Chairs, Chairs, I thought it only fitting to bring you some unusual and amazing beds! So, here they are!     This is so Space Age! Designed by Dutchman Jan Jaap Ruijssenaars, this Magnetic Floating Bed has enough magnets to keep 900 kilograms (1,984 pounds) floating in the air. To make…

  • Treehouse by Baumraum

      I have a thing for treehouses these days and came across this architectural firm, Baumraum, who designs not only treehouses but treehouse hotels!  I am taken by their treehouse that was built in Djuren in Germany. The treehouse serves as a room for rest and relaxation for the adults as well as a room…
