I’d like to know what you think about this.  It’s wallpaper with “frames” in which you can draw something, attach a photo, or pretty much put anything you want. I think it’s genius and am defiantly putting it on my list of must haves for my new place. I love things I can personalize, and this wallpaper makes that easier than ever, while tying all of the different elements together in a cohesive design.

Thoughts? Anyone have this and want to share an image of how they’ve customized it?  Wallpaper by Graham & Brown.

We’ve all seen temporary partitions before, but Studio Arihiro Miyake takes it to a whole new level with Fort. There are a lot of things to love about Fort. First, it’s made with recycled PET bottle fibre. Second, it’s easy to assemble. And last but certainly not least (and definitely the coolest part) this partition system is held together by integrated magnets.  This makes it simple to put together and possible to arrange it in all kinds of configurations.

What happens when you take a classic children’s story and mix it with some of the greatest designers of all time?  You get this very unique book.

Former New York Times Op-Ed art director Steven Guarnaccia has created this unique take in which Frank Gehry, Le Corbusier, and Frank Lloyd Wright relive the well-known tale surrounded by their famous buildings and objects.   The story is written from an architect and designers point of view.  This sounds like a story I’d like to read. Via Cool Hunting (who I love!) and available for sale here.

Just look at the furniture they are sitting on!  Seems less like a fairy tale and more like a really good dream 🙂

Tile on the wall? Sure we’ve seen it before in bathrooms, but we’ve never seen in quite like this. Trend USA offers a collection of tile “wallpaper” that give any room a unique new look.  Different sizes and styles offer completely different looks for all types of homes and spaces.

I like the idea of so many choices of tile, and would love to give my bathroom a totally unique look like the one above. Not so sure about the living room or bedroom though. What do you think?

Let’s kick off the holiday weekend with some really innovative design. Today I bring you Bike Furniture.  It doesn’t need much explanation, as its name pretty much says it all. But, I’ll give you one anyway.

This collection of truly unique furniture comes from Bike Furniture Design, a design and manufacturing studio that specializes in turning recycled steel and aluminum bicycle rims, handlebars and frames into modern furniture.  These designs are completely different from what I think of when I think modern furniture, yet I think some of the pieces could be perfectly integrated with other modern furnishing and décor.

I’m always impressed by items made from recycled parts.  Sometimes even though they are green and innovative, I can’t see how they’d fit in with everyday items. That’s the difference I see in this collection, its green, innovative, and I could defiantly see mixing a chair or two in with my own décor. Be sure to check out their site here.

I was browsing around the web earlier today when I came upon this.  Before I could figure out why I was fascinated I was and after a moment I realized what it was.  Underneath its cocoon like covering, the Zeppelin is a very traditional looking chandelier. This cover makes its overall look so modern though. It’s this paradox that makes it so very interesting and unique.

This is just one of the captivating designs of Marcel Wanders. If you’re not familiar with him, know that I’m far from the only one who thinks his work is brilliant. Marcel has been recognized with honors that include being named one of Holland’s most influential people and among the word’s 50 design icons.  While you may be familiar with some of his product design, be sure to check out some of his interior work design as well.  My favorite here.  Visit his site too. You’ll love it.
