Green Bedroom

Wednesday, May 27th, 2009

When you see this topic, you might be thinking about “green” or “eco-friendly” furniture. Well, we certainly think buying “green” furniture is a great idea. But today the “green” we are refering to is not so much related to the concept of “eco-friendly”, but more related to the alternative lighting options that redefine the bedroom decor.

This new interactive installation is created by the studio The Popcorn Makers. The soft green lighting makes the room clam, comfortable and inviting. Who wouldn’t want to sleep in this bedroom?

Grey Bar - Blue Mirror

Monday, May 25th, 2009

This amazing full operating bar, headquartered at Grussels, is designed by Puresand. What attract me the most is the blue mirrors that cut in triangles and mounted against the wall. Not only it makes the bar a magical place, it creates more depth and tactility in the small space.  By taking a look at this place in different angle, i can only think about two words ” relaxing and dreaming”

Are you into Sleigh Beds

Monday, May 18th, 2009

Among all types of beds, probably sleigh beds enjoy the longest history as they dates back to the Empire period of the early 1800’s. Sleigh beds come with curved or scrolled foot and headboards. Sleigh beds are often made of wood and therefore it is very heavy. But who cares! We all need reliable and fine quality beds. However, if you do not like wood, there are other forms available as well, such as iron, steel and even aluminum.

There are a couple of places you can shop online for sleigh beds such as from Wholesale Furniture Brokers and Greenculture. When you shop online, we suggest to shop from a store that you trust. Such stores should at least been online for 3 years and has security features such as GeoTrust.

Home redesign in Progress

Friday, May 15th, 2009

I am very glad that i found an in-progress home redesign. The author shared on his blog Velvet&Liene. This is too good to have it passed out.

All wall and draperies are in white. Instead of b buying a whole bedroom set, the author bought individual pieces separately. The custom bed is from Plantation and Gallbraith and Paul pillows are added. The glass night stand is from Aiden Gary while the turquoise lamps are from Grace Home. Wow, i can imagine how much time and thoughts are put into this deco.

A sofa is also decorated in white with a Paoul Textile pillow on it. A silk rug is selected to match all of the fabrics in the client’s bedroom.

So did you learn something from this? Sometimes before you redesign your room, what you need to do is just to close your eyes and imagine what you want it look like and write down what color, style would help you achieve your final goal.
