We have a clue about Furniture

Some pieces of furniture are heirlooms, whether you received it from your great-grandmother or you recently purchased it, hoping it will be passed down to your future generations. Furniture that gets handed down usually comes with a story.

Dutch cousins Pieter and Thijs Bedaux , an architect and a furniture-maker, respectively, created this chair called Void(wood). Made of plywood, the chair is an experiment in tectonics. It feels both 2D and 3D at the same time – playing with shape and perspective.

Yesterday’s Groupon in the NYC/North Jersey area was for a Thanksgiving meal cooked by the chef at Bloomingdale’s. We use Groupon for restaurants on a regular basis, so why not save on Thanksgiving with it?
But what this really made me think about is what the majority of people do for Thanksgiving. I’ve never cooked or hosted a Thanksgiving, but I can imagine it’s not the easiest meal, especially with a lot of guests. For that reason, I’m sure there’s a lot of people that either order in or dine out at a restaurant for Thanksgiving. Having Thanksgiving at a restaurant is a great way to get large families together that wouldn’t necessarily fit into someone’s house!
So, how do you spend Thanksgiving – with a home-cooked meal, with take-out, or at a restaurant?

Yesterday, the design blog Trendir covered the awesome wallpaper above. Yes! That’s wallpaper – isn’t it fun? In the photos, the paper really looks like real leather, real panels and real bookshelves! I’m curious to see what they look like in person…
These wallpapers are a great idea for a temporary living space, or an apartment where you don’t have much control over the physical decor. They can really be used in any home…but do you think you’d miss the actual texture that the wood panelling provides?
What I would pay to see is a guest reaching for one of those books!
Anyway, the wallpaper is made by Mineheart, a UK based company founded in 2010. In addition to the wild wallpapers shown here, there are several others on their website that you’ve got to check out.
Another question I have is: how would you decorate with these wallpapers? Here’s what I’m thinking:
How about this tufted leather wallpaper with a tufted leather sofa – too much?!
