- Kyoto Modern Round Dining Table by Birdman Furniture
If you liked the Metro dining table from Birdman Furniture, then you will probably love the equally stylish Kyoto round dining table. Once again the name would imply an Asian theme, and designer Frans van der Heyden delivers just that in this modern 8 person table. The contrast of the round top and the three bent and tapered legs create a strong look from simple elements that make the best of sharp edges. Birdman furniture offers the Kyoto 170 cm round dining table in four finishes which include light, dark, slate, and rose for adaptation in various environments. The Birdman line includes some really cool lounge chairs, accent tables, and lamps that are a must see.

Sure most square dining tables have four legs but its all in the configuration as to how cool the table will look. Dutch designer Frans van der Heyden used a different approach to the Metro dining table that sets it apart from what's out there. Heyden's "Birdman" furniture line has a distinctly Asian influence that incorporates clean lines, bold shapes, and opposing angles that I find very appealing. The Birdman collection has some really awesome designs that are fun and perfect for the modern minded decorator. The Metro dining table is perfect for 8 guests and comes in 150 or 160cm square x 75cm height.

What do you notice about this sofa, love seat and recliner that make it different from what you may be used to seeing? All of the Fjords by Hjellegjerde items were designed for a unique purpose and making them identical is not the main focus, comfort is. The recliner swivels and has a self adjusting active headrest and separate forward tilting ottoman to allow full support in all positions. The love seat has two individually reclining seats with high back support, perfect for movie watching and book reading. Finally the sofa has three individually reclining low back seats that easily slip into the desired position with out levers of adjustments necessary. The items all are available in one, two, or three seats, in high or low back versions with a variety of color options. The Fjords collection from Norway is perfect for any space needing serious comfort especially home theaters.

Designer Jaime Hayon continues to add to his offerings of versatile furniture with the Showtime Chair from BD Ediciones. If you like the basic look then you will love this chair with its many possibilities. The Showtime can be used as a dining chair or accent chair in any area or application. In addition there are a wide variety of finishes, two sets of legs, and high or low back options to make this the "chameleon" of chairs. Available from FuturePerfect.com from $1565
Wed, 20 Feb 2008 10:46:44 -0600 - Fjords Leather Recliners Feel as Good as they Look
One thing is for certain in the furniture business, Norwegians take great pride in their products. The Fjords collection from Hjellegjerde of Norway is truly a top of the line collection specializing in leather recliners and multifunction sofa groupings with a focus on form and ergonomics. Their concept has recently grown to include 5 base options for the recliner and ottoman sets, and sofa, loveseat, chair combinations carefully matched where comfort and functionality are of great importance for the sitting experience. Sofas and chairs have height adjustable neck supports on high back models with the built-in Fjords Active Release System that allows several head positions and ultimate neck support. I highly recommend the Fjords line for home theaters or modern interiors where comfort is highly important.

You don't have to be in the rocking chair stage of your life to enjoy the Aria solid teak rocker from Westminster. The hearty stock of the construction does more than imply quality, it insures it. Teak is a very durable and hard wood that weathers well in outdoor environments making the Aria rocking chair perfect for use anywhere. The unique ergonomic design includes an extended rocking-arc and slightly tilted seat creating a comfort and balance for ease of use. I am a little vain when it comes to furniture and would buy this rocking chair on looks alone! Materials 100% Indonesian Perhutani Plantation Teak Size 40 H x 24 W x 34 L

Bathroom sinks from Wet Style feature the simplicity found in French countryside décor. I am also reminded of the influence from washbasins from the early 1920s to 1920s where it was less common to have running water. Though there is a touch of modern design, I think simple is the best term to describe these sinks. A simple approach may do well if you are trying to highlight other features in your bathroom such as a garden tub, decorative tile, or furniture. These products are made of composite resin. They can be designed to be freestanding or mounted onto a pedestal. They are available in a glossy or matte finish. The Wet Style website has a link where you can find a dealer near you.

While the nesting table no stranger as a multipurpose and versatile décor option, the concept is being adopted in many other products. It seem the "nesting" or multiple piece accessory has found its way to all sorts of decorative objects like plates, vases, glasses, dishes and many other items according to Met Home. In a previous post Furniture Fashion reviewed a beautiful solid wood dining table by Hudson Furniture and creator Barlas Baylar that is as ecologically conscious as great looking. This nesting table set brings the outdoors inside with its unprocessed all wood construction that is made from reclaimed stock. Set $6550 22"L x 22"W x 20"H

Designer and architect Zaha Hadid is no stranger to trend setting styles that incorporate radical shape and vision, and here is one of my favorites. The "Moon System" from B & B Italia is like nothing I have ever seen, possessing the complexity of curved geometry and a one piece look as if it were carved from a single element. Unlike most sofas that rely on conventional ideals and shapes, the Moon System sofa has no two sides or angles that are repeated, keeping the view fresh from all view points. I particularly like the way the ottoman can be incorporated within the shape of the sofa if so desired adding to its uniqueness.

Often there is nothing more desirable than a simple platform bed, free of a headboard and night stands, just a cool clean platform. The "Dreamland" from designer Christophe Pillet and the Ceccotti Collection of Italy is just that, a modern "Zen" sleeping platform free of additions, possessing a lot of visual appeal. Helping out with the visuals Pillet appointed Ebony-Zed wood for the bottom support, Rosewood, Ebony or Makassar for the fascias, and supple leather for the top panels of the platform giving Dreamland true legitimacy as the Ceccotti Collection is known for. The entire collection offers magnificence in modern furniture with function and close attention to detail as standard features.

One piece at a time, that's how Puiforcat makes their sterling silver, plated silver, and stainless steel line of cutlery and decorative home and table accessories. Since 1820 the Puiforcat family has hand forged a reputation steeped in French tradition as gifted silversmiths. Today the tradition continues with a beautiful collection of cutlery, vases, candle holders, coffee and tea sets, and table accessories. Their collection ranges from intricately engraved traditional, to the very modern Virgule series that is right at home in today's contemporary décor. To complete the table setting, Puiforcat has a wonderful offering of porcelain table ware to compliment their beautiful silver.

Previously we did a review on the Tufty Bed by B &B Italia and famed designed Patricia Urquiola which received rave reviews upon its introduction. In case you like it or have it and want an equally cool and comfortable look in your living room, here is the Tufty Time modular sofa sectional. Patricia is inspired by the 60's and 70's according to B & B, and the Tufty Time has hints of the Chesterfield and Capitonne styles. This beauty is available in fabric and now leather with pleats to ensure a comfortable seat. The modular feature allows a multitude of configurations for flexibility and use in almost any room size.
Fri, 15 Feb 2008 11:05:19 -0600 - More Hanging Lights from Schonbek's Geometrix Series
Here are two more hanging lights from the Geometrix series from Schonbek lighting. As you can see the Strass crystals really make this high tech lighting line shimmer with brilliant elegance. Schonbek makes a shape and color for practically every design scheme and application from very small pendants, to chandeliers and crystal trim for recessed lighting. Often modern interiors have a limited selection of hanging lamps that offer a sense of texture and vibrancy that can warm up and personalize a room, and this collection really fills this need.
