Soap dish from kitchen skimmer

September 30th, 2011 — Furniture, Uncategorized

Materials: Ikea (name?) kitchen skimmer Description: We have 2 round vessel sinks in our master bath. Small Ikea bowls mimicking the shape of the vessels held our soaps next to the sinks. Every time we reached with wet hands for the soap or return it to the dish, soapy water splashed on the counter, very messy. What we needed was an in-sink soap dish! We looked at Ikea’s Lillangen line of bathroom furniture but none of their in-sink accessories would fit our rounded vessel sinks

LDF 2011: Origin Contemporary Craft Fair

September 30th, 2011 — Design

This is Origin ’s second year of being part of the London Design Festival rather than a stand-alone event, and its second year at Old Spitalfields Market . It still has a slightly different feel to many of the events on offer, appealing to a slightly older crowd, and focusing exclusively on contemporary craft. It attracts some wonderfully quirky exhibitors – these Azurer pots (above) were so organic they almost seemed to be growing! And I’ve never seen anything quite like Clare Knox-Bentham ’s creations, which are hand “drawn” using plastic extrusion techniques. There was also a lot of very beautiful, quite understated ceramics, like Noa Ceramics ’ work (above), which is hand-crafted using antique Indian printing blocks and the pieces below from Derek Wilson , Kerry Hastings and Linda Bloomfield

Concrete Vase by Xiral Segard

September 30th, 2011 — Design

Designer Xiral Segard exhibited her concrete Konkurïto vase during Paris Design Week earlier this month. The modular design was inspired by the Japanese bento box (minus the vegetables). Fabricated wholly in concrete, it consists of four modular stackable elements, plus a cover. You can stack them in whatever order you wish, and place the water reservoir at either the top or bottom, depending on the size of your bouquet.

Weekly Six: 9/30/11

September 30th, 2011 — Designer Stuff

via Design Happens

Happy Friday! Here’s to spending the first weekend of October relaxing and enjoy the Autumn season. What are your plans for this weekend?

No matter what your plans, be sure to squeeze in some time to enjoy the weekly 6:

Instead of Google Earth-ing your home on the computer, get yourself a Google Earth rug like the one shown above.
Wouldn’t it be fun to serve warm soups and chilis in these funky bowls supported by feet?
Try a new recipe such as these seasonal pumpkin whoopie pies…
Or add some sparkle to a dessert with gold edible glitter.
Create your own statement wall art with a canvas, shoe polish and your favorite poem.
Dream about relaxing as a queen on a beautiful modern throne.
