Gus* Modern has added a new dining collection to its repertoire. Looks good and the price seems competitive to other (quality) dining tables.

Perfect for a modern or traditional space, the Plank Dining Table from Gus Modern is made of solid wood and will last the test of time. Use the beautiful Plank Dining Bench by Gus Modern, the Gus Modern Thompson Chairs or a combination of both to meet your dining needs.

So very versatile- this table slides together to save space or expands when you need more surface area. To see more pictures (and a couple room setting shots) click here.

The Blues Coffee Table’s effortless rectangular form is purism with a practical plus, thanks to a sliding overleaf that doubles the length in seconds when you need more room, or vice versa. Lack of chic storage will never get you down with the Blues Coffee Table around.

This is not something particularly new, but this is the first I’ve seen of the other sizes (the Single looks especially comfortable as a chair, and how cute is the Petit size?).

A seating system that reflects the ever changing emotional state of the body. The number of positions the Feel seat has is as wide as the imagination. You can sit on it, lay and relax or just lounge on it.

Feel Deluxe: 70″ x 86″ x 8″, $2899.00

The stitch print on these ‘blocks’ would really give a feeling of texture to a room, and considering how easy the fabric is to care for it’s a no brainer for kids or pets.

Maybe the mere mention of history makes you snore, but I think this ruler is a great thing to have, both for measurement and reference.

The past 2000 years of world history unfold on the 2 meters of the “Historic Folding Rule.”
This type of ruler was designed to fit into a workman’s pockets with ease, a wonderful example of form following function.

Geez, I know $1800 for a bed still seems a little steep in price, but considering the price tag used to be $4500, it sounds like a deal.

Most conventional leather bed’s like their sofa counterpart’s suffer from overstyling and excessive padding in order to denote luxury or comfort. Taking a more restrained approach is the Loja Leather Bed (2004), distinctive in its pared-down, sleigh bed form. Skillfully produced in Spain, the bed features light padding over the entire frame to create a soft, cushioned surface that surrounds the user. Large panels of silky, oil-tanned leather the warmest and most supple of cowhide leather’s are used to upholster the frame and are neatly stitched with welted perimeter seams. The headrest features a slight pitch to accommodate comfortable reading or TV viewing.

This is a crazy price point for a lounge chair (the ottoman seems a tad bit over-slanted, but man, for the price I could overlook it).

* Chair measures 19.75″ wide x 27.5″ deep x 36″ high

I’m a little bit in love with this series by Hans Brattud.

The iconic Scandia Series was designed by Hans Brattud in 1957. During the 1970’s the factory in Norway burned down and was never rebuilt, therefore, putting Scandia out of production. In 2001, Norwegian manufacturer, Fjord Fiesta brought the series back. Working closely with Brattrud himself, they made sure that every detail of the original design was perfected.

This is a great price for a stool; it reminds me of a nicer wooden version (see below).

(Update: so I found the wooden stool- it’s the Tahiti Stool…but after looking at it a little more it doesn’t have the same seat indentation and the back rise is higher, so it has less resemblance that first thought.)

Yes, this is a reproduction of the PK20 Easy chair by Poul Kjaerholm. I won’t get into whether or not you should buy the original or the copy, because that’s your choice, but I will point out that this is approximately $6,000 less than the original.

The Spring Chair is a modern reproduction based on a Poul Kjaerholm classic. Features a stainless steel frame and your choice of woven natural cane or top, full grain black Italian leather.
