Today I came across this dining table…
It’s called the Maru dining table (by greentea design) and it’s made of solid 3″ thick reclaimed wood planks, over a 100 years old. I don’t know whether to classify it as old or new… I’m leaning towards new and modern because these pieces definitely show a sleek modern […]

When you hear the words “lounge chair” what comes to mind? Perhaps the Barcelona? Maybe the classic Eames?
Well, for most people it’s probably the iconic LC4 Chaise Lounge by LeCorbusier… and probably the black leather version. Yes, it’s a beauty.

Simply put, these are amazing. I can honestly say that I was (and still […]

Picture borrowed from Knoll
Another fabulous design classic from the 1930’s. The Hardoy Chair (also known as the Butterfly or BKR chair) was designed by Jorge Ferrari-Hardoy in 1938 and originally produced by Knoll.
