Toy Box on Wheels from Maukilo

Posted: 01 Nov 2011 11:44 AM PDT

Kids rooms are the most difficult rooms to arrange in the house. And this is because you have to respect a lot of conditions. For example you need a lot of space on the floor because the kids play on the floor and also the room must be dynamic as they move from one place to another. Children are not very patient, so forget about storing their toys some place remote because they need easy access to everything in no time. But every mother’s dream is also to have a clean house, so it’s best to have some big storage box for all the kids’ belongings. Well, I have just found the object that fulfills all these requirements: the Toy Box on Wheels  from Maukilo.

It is strong and sturdy and made of cardboard, so it is pretty lightweight. It has wheels so even kids can move it from one corner of the room to another. It has a colourful waterproof coating because accidents do happen when children are involved. What is one of its most important features in my opinion is that when you no longer use it, you can fold it and store some place. It is funny and very useful and you can order it for $29.99.

Playful DIY train table

Posted: 01 Nov 2011 11:44 AM PDT

Trains are one of the most popular types of toys, especially in the case of little boys. For a kid, seeing that little train going on the rails and making stops for fuel or cargo is like taking everything to another level. I'm a grown up and I still like trains. So why not give your little one a special table where he can play with his little trains? It doesn't even have to be bought because you can do it yourself. Here's how.

DIY train table

The table doesn't even have to be complicated. It can be the simplest table in the world and your little one will still love it. You can create it using some leftover wood you might have or scrap wood. Make sure it's not to tall so that you kid can reach it. Make some legs and screw them with a 1.5 inch lip on the top. Take a sheet of headboard for example and use it as a top. Stain it and you're done.

Using walnut gel stain will also allow you to paint something on the top, like dirt, gravel, sand or grass and other thinks usually seen near railroads. It's very easy to create and you can do without a plan or prior drawings. You just need a top and four legs. The rest depends on your kid's preferences. You can paint it in a bright color or leave it like that. You ca also paint stuff and a nice idea would be to involve your kid in the project.{found on countrygirlhome}

Music Pillar Candle

Posted: 01 Nov 2011 11:02 AM PDT

There’s more to a beautiful home than simple furniture and some colour on the walls. It’s about the way in which you arrange everything and you combine different objects and styles. It’s about those little details and accessories that make a house HOME. For example if you want to have a romantic date at home, in the living room, for a special occasion or maybe for the upcoming Thanksgiving, you must arrange everything in style. You can use some flower bowls, maybe feng-shui decorations or some nice candles, depending on your personality. I think that candles are great because they provide a gentle and warm light that is perfect for bringing people close together. The Music Pillar Candle is one of my favourites.

This candle is perfect for those who love music, for musicians or singers, for piano players or for all those who are in some way connected to this field of activity. The candle will burn like a tunnel and leave the outer sheet intact, thus making it glow on the inside and this way allowing the musical notes drawn on it to look amazing. The dreamy look of the candle will be enhanced by the sugar-like finish that will make it look like descended from the video presentations of Christmas candies. It is made of unscented ivory paraffin wax and is covered with paper printed with musical notes. You can purchase it for $16.50 – $29.50.

Casa do Conto a boutique hotel by Pedra Liquida

Posted: 01 Nov 2011 11:00 AM PDT

Casa Do Conto Is a boutique hotel designed by Portuguese studio Pedra Liquida. The project involved the renovation and conversion of a 19th century home in Porto. The house was turned into a boutique hotel that includes six luxury rooms. The name of the hotel, Casa do Conto, could be translated as The House of Tales. It was created three years ago.

Turning the house into a hotel wasn't easy, especially considering that in March 2009 there was a fire that interrupted the process. Still, the team didn't give up. The house has been fully rehabilitated. It still features significant 19th century architectural elements and the memories of the old structure are still in there.

Each of the six rooms has a different story to tell. They are all different and feature a unique interior décor. They have all been created by different authors. The new Casa do Conto boutique hotel combines art with the pleasure of relaxing in a cozy room. Casa do Conto offers a regular schedule of cultural events, involving different artists, designers, curators, groups and art institutions. As you can see, this small but beautiful boutique hotel has a very interesting story. I personally like the rooms very much. They are so simple, minimalist, and yet so striking. The color palette is very beautiful even though very restrictive.{pics by: FG+SG and found on ArchDaily, Casa do Condo}

Posted: 01 Nov 2011 10:25 AM PDT

By now we all know how our planet looks like so there's no need to insist on that subject with every little map and globe. So Atmosphere Newworld decided to create a collection of globes that would offer the ultimate viewing experience. They decided to also focus of style and on the way the globes would integrate into the decors.

 Newworld's contemporary globes

The collection includes several different globes, of course all representing the same thing just in different ways. This is a contemporary collection that adds style to an item that until now was strictly informative. The collection is also highly educational. It's the type of object that is both decorative and educational and there are very few items that share the same qualities.

It's probably the first contemporary and stylish globe collection. Atmosphere Newworld, as the name suggests, attempts to put a modern touch to timeless items, to recreate basic items, to make the old seem new again. For these globes, the maps are designed individually. The globes are manufactured to perfection so that you get only the best in terms of quality and looks. Dare to be different.Available here.

Vicem Residences located on a rocky

Posted: 01 Nov 2011 09:55 AM PDT

This elaborate project seems to be part of a documentary. It's actually a group of buildings that was created by Emre Arolat Architects in Mugla, Turkey. The main architects working at the project were Başak Akkoyunlu and Natali Tombak. The whole complex measures 9.500 sqm and it was completed in 2010.

Vicem Residences in Bodrum

Such a large structure is not something you expect to see in that area. It's situated along the strip that extends between the sea and the coastal road from Bodrum city center to İçmeler till the shipyard region and it's a surprising and also very beautiful structure. The idea was to create a complex of buildings that would share the natural texture of the site and that would seamlessly dissolve into the surroundings. This is something that we can all see now. If you don't look carefully you wouldn't even notice the buildings.

What's even more surprising and beautiful is that the interior décor of these structures share the same characteristics. Even though modern, the décor features natural textures and colors that help create a unifying and harmonious correlation between the interior and the exterior. Bodrum Vicem is a large residence complex with a very beautiful design. Moreover, the location is splendid and the views are magnificent. I can only imagine that it must be difficult to find a free spot there and, if you do, it must be like heaven.{found on archdaily}

Marrakesh Side Table

Posted: 01 Nov 2011 09:50 AM PDT

Side tables are very useful even if they are pretty small. You can always find something to place there and they are used a lot when you have company and want to enjoy a nice afternoon on the sofa, relaxed and chatting with your friends instead of sitting on a chair around the dinner table. In the first case you will certainly need a small support for the beverages, the magazines or some other small items you might need. You might even be alone and still need to place your TV remote control somewhere, so the side table is once again there to help you.

This Marrakesh Side Table is perfect for my taste, as it is small and simple and it can match any kind of living room design. You can buy it at Plummers Furniture for $149 . It is perfect for a modern house and it is so easy to place in any corner of your room without making it too crowded and without disturbing the general design of the room. Actually it may, on the contrary, bring a piece of order and simplicity which is always beneficial for any house.

Caffè di Mezzo Interior Design

Posted: 01 Nov 2011 09:10 AM PDT

Located in Castelfranco Veneto, Italy, Caffè di Mezzo is a bar situated on the ground floor of a twentieth-century building. The place was in bad need of a remodel and this happened a few years ago. The project was developed by JM Architecture and Jacopo Mascheroni who also worked with structural engineer Ing. Giulio Bergamin, San Martino di Lupari (PD), mechanical engineer Studio Tre Progettazione, Castelfranco Veneto (TV) and electrical engineer Elektro Ewald, Falzes (BZ). The project was completed in 2009.

Caffè di Mezzo

The idea of the project was to create a bright and modern space with a linear design. The bar has a 20 meter long rectangular shape so including other simple geometric lines into the design was an easy choice. The new structure of the bar has two volumes: one for service defined by a long linear counter and one for the customers with white leather benches and an inviting design.

The bar overlooks the arcades surrounding a beautiful medieval castle containing the historic center of Giorgione's hometown. It's a beautiful contrast between the modern and simple interior décor of Caffè di Mezzo and the historic world outside. The interior is very simple. The colors are mostly neutral but warm and inviting and they harmoniously combine to form an elegant and welcoming atmosphere. The built-in ceiling light are also a subtle choice.

Contemporary London residence for sale

Posted: 01 Nov 2011 07:36 AM PDT

Contemporary homes have become a standard these days. There's been an invasion in the past years. Still, the beauty about contemporary homes is that they don't have a specific style that repeats itself in all of them. Each and every one of them is different and unique. For example, let's take a look at this dramatic house located in London. The property is currently for sale. However, I have no information about the price or the exact location.

Contemporary London residence living

The most striking is of course the interior design. Notice the combination of contrasting elements and styles. In the living room for example we have that abstract and almost hypnotizing picture on the wall and then the classic and elegant furniture, while in the same room there's a wood-burning fireplace. I guess we could say that the contemporary style is eclectic, even though it wouldn't be too fair.

What I really like about all the rooms of this house is that they have large windows and very beautiful curtains. Moreover, the wall decorations are striking and always different. For example, in one of the other rooms that seems to be a theatre room one wall is covered with mirrors, of different shapes and sizes that form a collage. Another great thing about this place is that is has a spacious kitchen, very simple and yet still very functional. The interior décor, as you can see, is contrasting but also bright, modern and eye-catching.{found on domusnova}
