This is a lovely little platform bed. And even better, it’s cheaper because it’s from Canada.

It’s got the bullet points to prove itself (see website). Mid-century inspiration, new, and affordable?? I promise, it’s true. Plus it’s got a stain-repellant fabric.

Continuing on in the spirit of things shaped like the letter ‘s’, here’s a bench by designer Michael Cannamela for 3 Square Design. Very “sexy”, as they say.

Available in walnut, maple or cherry wood.

This spectacular lounge chair is molded from a single piece of transparent plastic. Despite it’s appearance, the plastic is actually slightly flexible–making this chair beautiful and comfortable.

18″ w . 31″ d . 27″ h
seat height 12 “

Thank goodness. Such a nice alternative to the horrible (but necesssary) ones at the local pet store, don’t you agree? The outside frame part is steel, while the carboard part fits snugly inside and can be changed out as needed.

What’s amazing about this small trolly/side table is that it is available in more than 200 colors…so, if you need a particular specific shade, you’re in luck.

Painted solid steel with castors.

Okay, so this is not so much a time life stool as much as it is “inspired” by one. The wood is not as nice and I don’t think the proportions are exact. But, in a darkly lit room, and for $400 less than the original, it would pass.

And other finishes/tops are available(!). For this price, “custom” isn’t a dirty word.

So, I can basically afford a bookend of this modular bookcase. Look at it though, it’s quite nice. The book-stops that you see hold the units together…which is pretty smart, and it’s made of plywood honeycomb that’s lacquered (in white macroter finishing). (I don’t know what macroter finishing is, but I’m sure you could find out.)

Designed by Marc Newson, this chair from Magis is sure to turn heads. I mean, look at it. It’s made of polythylene with polyurethane seat and back cushions. You have your pick of red or blue woolen covers.

I’ve seen this chair around on a couple of different sites, and this particular site seems to have the best price. If you go with a felt/fabric instead of the leather, the price drops about $300…

plywood seat and multy-density polyurethane foam.

So- ignore the crap on this table and pay attention to the lines. Suprisingly affordable too.

Natural with navy edge.

Have everything within arm’s reach. Available in Leather, Fabrics and synthetic suede.

I like this sectional sofa set. It’s got the modern sensibility without the pretention.

I like this so much I can’t think straight. Galvanized and Powder coated steel with PE webbing and stainless steel frame.

Available in bronze, silver(!), or white.
