Piatto Wall Sconce

This certainly looks great when it’s white on white, but I suppose it would look equally as nice when it’s contrasted with a wall color since it has such a nice spherical edge.

“The Piatto Wall Sconce, by Luceplan, designed by Sandra Colbertaldo and Paolo Rizzatto, projects from the wall as a beautiful accent piece. Smooth and slender, it softly hovers above, lluminating light all around it. ”

Depth 11 in., Height 2 in., Width 17 in.

Domain King Bed in Tetris

This bed looks like an expensive Italian bed that retails around $8,000. But besides that, it’s a great minimal piece that would make any modernist proud.

James Desk

Now this is a desk. It has a place for vertical files on the top and a large drawer in the center (24 x 36).

The desk is also made from bamboo and stainless steel.

“All bamboo used in modernlink furniture is farm harvested and sustainable. Comes in “Baked” or “Raw” finish. Raw is the color of bamboo unadorned, leaving the surface as it would be naturally. Baked is achieved by literally toasting raw bamboo at high temperatures browning the silica in the bamboo naturally.”

Does anyone have cd cases anymore? Besides being terribly space inefficient, stacks and stacks of cd’s aren’t exactly minimal. Anyway, if you’re still analog when it comes to cd’s, at least have a streamlined way to store them with this wall mounted cd rack. One panel holds 24 cd’s.

each panel measures 6.5″ x 15.5″ length – approx. 1/2″ thick
