Designer Love: Sebastian Brajkovic

Sebastian Brajkovic is an amazing artist and designer. The pieces displayed above, along with many of his others, demonstrate fine art skills. The distribution of colors and painterly quality of the Lathe 1 chair is absolutely stunning. Furthermore, The Lathe Table 1200 is suggestive of a ceramic pot manipulated on a wheel with the spiraling rings. Sebastian Brajkovic is an inspiration.I hope these pieces are just as interesting and beautiful to you as they are to me!

Catherine Weis Floor

Oh hello, room love. I was just casually scrolling through design sponge and couldn’t help but notice this beautiful dining room with the Catherine Weis floor. There are some really great things working in this room.

1. The combination of wire chairs on one side of the table, and then a bench on the other. Plus, the pillows are a lovely way to functionally decorate. Pillows make the bench more comfy, and are pretty! win win.

2. The floor of course!

3. All the natural light

4. Anyone notice the cats? I’m all about the cats.

5. The plants. Always love a little outside inside.

Anthropologie Bedding

This season Anthropologie bedding is the absolute prettiest! I adore the rosette pillows and and the rivulet quilts. Every item of bedding has some sort of feminine, delicate, and gorgeous detailing. With a birthday gift certificate, I just got a set of crystal lattice sheets from Anthropologie (they’re featured on ‘The Naturalist’ styling, but mine are yellow). They have a 300 thread count, and are tres cute. Plus, they were on sale! I’ll let you know if they are just as comfortable and durable as they are pretty.

Flower Inspiration: Andreas Verheijen

As far as designing a room goes, there is so much to be taken as inspiration from different forms of design. I’m particularly fond of looking to flower arrangement as source of inspiration. The color palettes, different layers, and use of angles, can be transformed across all visual mediums. I think any one of the color palettes, from the photos below, by Andreas Verheijen, would work beautifully as a concept for a room. I hope these flowers get your creatives juices flowing just as much as they did for me!

P.S. As an unfortunate side-note, some things in Verheijen designs I really don’t like. In particular both dogs, one featured in the first photo, the second in the last. Did you notice them, and do you think they’re tacky too? Or is it just me being finicky, and super particular?

Chair Lamp by NieweHeren

The whole concept of this blog has always been based on my love for books. So it will be forever exciting when I find products conducive to one of my favorite pass-times: reading. This chair design, by NieweHeren, is simple, convenient, and looks great. Three of my favorite characteristics in a good product. I also really love the colors they chose to paint the chairs. The pop of white against turquoise looks fabulous, and almost, dare I say, elegant — which is a hard thing for stool-esque chairs to pull off — but these two definitely do.

Temple Table

This is a super gorgeous table by Hiroyuki Tanaka Architects. The shape of the table resembles a temple, and my mind is totally blown. It’s gorgeous.  I love <3 the temple table.

Manifold Clocks by Studio Ve


Manifold Clocks by Studio Ve. These are super cool. They remind me of a fold up fan, but they tell time! Super cool. The idea of a 3D clock is totally baffling, and totally neat. I <3

Prettiest Rooms Ever


I realize this post title is a bold statement, but these two rooms are absolutely gorgeous, and are such great inspiration. The white floors, walls, and ceilings in the first room all look incredibly light and welcoming, and then are accented with the rustic wood table that has beautifully faded colors, and there is also the carpet with all the light pastels, and even the plant looks beautiful! I don’t where to zero in. As an entirety the room is absolutely gorgeous with such a fresh and natural feel.

The same is true for the second room too — it is beautifully natural. The light blue in combination with the floral accents is so inviting, and the metals are gorgeous.

I am overwhelmed with the pretty. These rooms are from a house on the island of Tinos, Greece and created by interior designer Marilyn Katsaris. I found them at Yatzer, and I am so happy. I just love the pretty. Looking at these pictures is seriously getting my creative juices flowing.

Verandah House Furniture

This furniture is pretty. I think it would look great in a beach house, or a girl’s bedroom. The bright colored upholstery is really fun. It’s all from Verandah House. They have more furniture, and it’s all great. I’d definitely suggest checking it out!

Framed Objects

Framed Objects by the.

Yes. That is my initial reaction to this wonderful idea – just YES. I love it so much! One of my biggest problems with decorating is I like something new every week. This wall decor is the perfect solution to that problem, it’s one stable object, but you can be infinitely changing its appearance. One week you could have pink flowers, a green book, and a red scarf, then the next week you could have purple flowers, a blue book, and green scarf, OR you could switch up the type of objects being displayed. So many possibilities. It’s just a never ending, but simple, DIY project. Love, love, love the framed objects.

The Lock-Cup

This is the lock-cup by Efrat Gommeh. I think it’s pretty funny. I do like knowing that their is always a mug for me, and this mug is completely undesirable for pesky mug thieves. It’s definitely a silly idea, and could be a really fun birthday present, or any sort of silly gift!

Homeport

So I’ve recently moved to Burlington, VT. This city is filled with art, music, and a culture that keeps my infinite thirst for pretty things quenched. One store in particular, Homeport, really blew my mind. I wish everyone could visit Homeport and see all the pretty live in person, but I realize that’s not practical. So I pulled some pictures from their website for a little taste of how great the store is. Online, they have a whole section for cutting boards! The store just has so much good stuff: definitely check it out. I promise it will be worth your time.

Blue Willow Mug

Bamboo Dish Rack

Oh! and if you click the pictures, they bring you to the Homeport page, and give you a little bio on that particular product. My particular favorite is the bamboo dish rack. I have one in my house – it looks great, and is really nice for letting dishes dry on. I’m curious about how useful the wine picnic table would be, but I think it’s a neat concept, so definitely worth posting. Of course, all the other stuff I picked I think is great too. I mean really, who wouldn’t want fabulous scissors with pretty patterns?
