The next installment of gift ideas is from Tyler Goodro of Plastolux<\/a>. He finds all manner of modern interiors to inspire, and his site is on my oft-visited list. <\/p>\n Here are Tyler’s picks:<\/p>\n If I had to make a list of “want” or “want to give” it would be easier to go with “want”, what a scrooge I am! The large items are on my DREAM list and the smaller items are more of a reality.<\/p>\n 1. Napoleon Dynamite (Oil Painting)<\/a> by Dave Sharp, \u00c2\u00a3370. For the Pi\u00c3\u00a8ce de r\u00c3\u00a9sistance this amazing painting of none other than Napoleon Dynamite. I love art, especially pop art, one of a kind, and obscure. I am sure my wife would not let me put it anywhere other than my den, so that is proudly where I would display this character.<\/p>\n 2. Flip Clock – Time Talks<\/a>, \u00c2\u00a3299.00. With my background being in Graphic Design I am a sucker for objects that have some killer typography involved.<\/p>\n 3. Large Ash Wood Cutting Board<\/a>, $32.00. This would look amazing sitting on my white quartz countertops but then would I have to actually cook?<\/p>\n 4. Bosse Miniatures<\/a> designed by Walter Bosse, $45.00. These little solid brass sculptures would look really great in a grouping, odd numbers of course.<\/p>\n 5. Polder sofa<\/a> in Anthracite designed by Hella Jongerius, $8,505.00. We are in desperate need of a new sofa, our old Ikea sofa has been beat on way too long. The Polder Sofa is one of my dream pieces. I love the geometric “block like” design.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n 6. Provide Made \/ Arrows Cushion Aubergine<\/a>, $180.00 – $220.00. I recently just discover these amazing geometrically patterned cushions. I can’t think of a better accent cushion for my new Polder sofa.<\/p>\n 7. Countour<\/a>, Illustration by Simon C Page, $20.00 – $80.00. I really like the work of Illustrator Simon C Page and the print titled “Contour” is one of my favorites.<\/p>\n 8. The Pig Bank<\/a> by Harry Allen, $220.00. This has always been on my list but I have yet to pull the trigger. It would have to be in Chrome.<\/p>\n 9. Chieftains Chair<\/a> designed by Finn Juhl, produced by Onecollection, $13,900.00. Hey, I did say some items were on my DREAM list. This chair so killer in so many ways. I really could use a nice lounge chair like this for my den, Heck while we are at it, let’s make it a pair!<\/p>\n
