Jesu, Joy of Man's Desiring, from Cantata 147 never sounded so dope! (via one of my new favs!)
M'kay, so the guys over at Porsche got wise to the baby making game and came out with The Porsche Design P'4911 stroller ... and it's not that bad ... but is it comfortable and able to 'corner like it's on rails?'
Sometimes I get real giddy when I see beautifully fun minimal design. I believe the Serpent Modular Shelving from Bashko Trybek hits that spot.
for all you guys! I know my posts have been really few and far between. Life, family and work have taken my full attention these days. One project that I am in the final stages of, is for 2 brothers and their individual bedrooms. I'm going to share a sneak peak of J's room. The pics are a bit rough but you'll get the idea. He's part time rock star, part time basketball player and full time energy. I wanted to make a space that could adapt to his particular interests. This custom unit features a high-loft that you can turn into a lounge area or bed. Below can serve as a bed as well that is on casters in case he wants to move the bed position. Or, if he kept his bed up top, the platform turns into a giant play table. There is also a sliding hanging guitar panel to keep them safe and sound when not in use. He has tons of built-in storage and lighting through-out! Did I mention the basketball court as well?? I'll share some pics from G's room soon! Cheers -jenn
There is something sweet, simple and inviting about Caroline Gomez's Bonjour Madame shop....wouldn't you agree?
How dope are these high gloss wooden 'magical beans'? Form and function, with a dash of modern beauty that both child and adult could enjoy.
Dear Universe, I am on the hunt for a Yves Christin Ballon Lamp. Hope to hear from you soon. Love, Jenn
Whoa, Nika Zupanic is making some pretty sweet cradles. I'm totally signing up for her newsletter! Perhaps cribs are next??
These two pieces by Alain Berteau are simply beautiful. The Stool 60 tricycle and Stool 60 Swing are right up my design alley!
Last summer I was approached, by the fine people at Appaman, to come up with the Retail Concept that could translate into a brick and mortar, a section inside a department store or stand alone kiosk. The direction was to create a balance of Scandinavian design mixed with a hint of vintage, a dash of modern and a nod to NYC street style. I am very happy to announce that Appaman HK just opened it's doors in Central Hong Kong! Below is where the project started and then to it's grand opening only weeks ago! More images HERE.
Tomm Velthuis is taking the excecution of the Train Table to a whole new level....and I think I like it.
Urbio is the magically magnetic vertical urban garden! This little gem could also turn into an awesome art center organizer for the kiddos! Whoot!
Casaurus was built by student designer Koichiro Hoshino and I think it's genius! He created this dinosaur-themed bookshelf/playground for his senior thesis. I want one of these in my house! More images HERE.
I *love* this adjustable child's table from Perludi. Simply executed and very well considered in my opinion.
For Earth Day, I'd like to give a shout out to Sprig Toys, a kid powered, battery free and eco-friendly toy company. You should get up all in that!
The Loog Guitar is a D.I.Y kit from Rafael Atijas. His kickstarter campaign is going amazingly well! . Its a real guitar, that plays real music! The kit is intended to bond parent and child to build and create music! Given the success already on Kickstarter, you can pre-order your kit for $150. Money well spent i'd say.
Finally, the Playmobil Apple Store Playset ! I totally don't mind standing in this queue for the Genius Bar!
that I adore Kalon Studios. I am loving them a bit more today as they are just about to release their Echo Toddler Bed. Which goes swimmingly with the Echo Dresser!
I know the weather is finally getting warmer but c'mon, THIS viking hat is awesome any time of year!
Wow. This is a stellar example of maximizing space with a hugh dash of well-considered design. The challenge was to turn a 2 bedroom apartment into a comfortable and functional space for a family with 4 kids! Bravo MihaDesign Studio! (via BB) Photos : Sadao Hotta
Hey gang! I just wanted to say hello and let you know that I've been a busy little bee. A ton of special projects brewing and some pretty stellar things in the works. I thought I'd share a few selections from current works. One is an indoor play structure , a custom storage unit / bunk bed and loft bed / secret above-the-closet nook! I promise to post more pics and details soon! In the mean time ... here is are a few sneak peaks.
Oh, did you guys get a chance to see THIS TimeOutNY Kids piece?
There is something very simple and clean about THIS wall mounted Alphabet Organizer .... makes me want to tidy up!
Ive been working with some clients as of late, where toy storage has been high on the to-tackle list. Here are two gems that I wanted to pass along! One is the Kartel Componibili Laundry Basket. Yes, a clothes hamper turned into a dope tabletop with a pull-out storage bin! The second is THIS felt bin from Muuto. Oh la la!
I am totally in love with the function and form of Soojin Kang's Dressed Furniture Cabinet. How great would this play in a kid's room?!?
There are so many elements of inspiration here i can't even stand it. Ab Rogers - you are my hero.
