I love large lights like this above dining tables.

“The Leucos Ayers Pendant enhances rooms with a cascade of inviting illumination and a smooth, robust form. The Ayers Pendant, designed by Marco Piva, features a large, handblown diffuser composed of four layers of Murano glass.”

Diameter 21.75 in., Height 11.5 in.

The Take Away lamp can go on the wall, ceiling, or floor, making for a very flexible light source.

Made in fibreglass fabric, 25 W bulb.
Height 38 cm, width 32 cm.

These soaps by Marie Gardeski are delightfully strange. I love them because they look so out of place, and just a bit weird.

1/2″-2″ handmade goats milk + vegetable glycerin with light scent.

10 assorted soaps per bag.

A mirror reproduced in one of the more interesting shaped countries, this Italy mirror would definitely be an intriguing object for a home or commercial space.

Material: methacrylate with an expanded PVC support.
Dimensions: 42″ x 35″ x 0.5″.

Reconnecting with childhood amazement is as simple as owning a glass that turns bright blue when you fill it up with cold water.

2.5″ x 7.25″ :: 275 ml

This sofa and chair set deserve another mention. With such a clean, spare silhouette, the tufting adds just the right amount of detail you’d want in a sofa.

Coffee Bean or Fawn.

These are great- they’re available in eleven different colors!

“Iconic contemporary style. Works great as drinks table or seating for a desk, vanity or anywhere that needs a punch of style.”

Not being one who has a talent for floral design, I like how these vases make even a sprig from a fern look like an arrangement.

So clever, and definitely a piece that people will ask about…it would be interesting to see if others are inspired to find their own coffee tables and turn them into book racks.

“matt carr found inspiration when he found two vintage coffee tables. creating a bookrack for his own home, he configured them ingeniously to give these tables a new life as bookshelves. this design is now re-created with a mahogany natural top and black lacquered legs.”

dimensions: 44″ x 37″ x 11″

Not sure if this qualifies as friendly, but it’s definitely a conversation piece.

“Stoic and humorous, the Smith face can be used as a paperweight, doorstop or wherever you need a friendly face. Great accent to your home garden!”

I think this fixture is so interesting- the scale and industrial nature are sure to draw attention while doing a very good job of providing light below.

“The Field Bounce sends a broad field of light upwards providing indirect light and is ideal for custom construction. A stem up to 36” is included. “

These felt chair covers help dress up the very affordable Chair Chair by Blu Dot and allow you to change up the feeling of a room just by switching the colors.

“As if Chair Chair weren’t already perfect perfect, now you can accessorize it with a dash of color. Lightly padded, woven-felt covers slip on but don’t slip off. Available in aqua blue, wheat, or charcoal.”

Large ottomans for coffee tables are one of the better ideas for a living room. It’s much more comfortable to put your feet up on something soft than on wood or glass, of course, but it also softens up the whole feel of the room, eliminating those hard corners that our shins inevitably find one way or another. Large ottomans like this can also double as extra seating for large gatherings as well.

This is perhaps the coolest flower basket I’ve seen (though I admit I haven’t seen that many).

“This long, shallow, flower basket provides an uncommonly sensible way to pick, carry, and display cut flowers. Your cut stems go immediately into water, extending their life considerably. Cut stems are easy to carry, both around the garden or the flower market.”

Hang jackets, umbrellas, bags, whatever on these very literal wall hooks.

“Design house Seletti brings new meaning to the phrase ‘HANG time’ with these individual letters that double as a wall hook. This set comes with four oversized and durable stainless steel letter-shaped hooks that spell ‘H-A-N-G’.”

Each letter measures 4.75″ W x 8″ High. Comes complete with mounting hardware for easy installation.
