A couple of weeks ago, I posted this mid-century modern home for sale in Salt Lake City and ever since I’ve been sneaking a few minutes here and there on the Move Modern website where I found that house. They have some beautiful and interesting homes on their site, and I definitely recommend checking them out. One of those homes is shown above; a modern home available for sale in Charlotte, North Carolina. I love it’s bright light and concrete floors. And it’s on the market for $340,000.
Makes me want to relocate, how about you?!

Italian designer Mauro Lipparini designed this Vita sofa for Italian company Bonaldo . It will be launched this year at Salone in Milan. I’m looking forward to seeing more pics. I’m loving that the backrest can be raised or folded over, depending on your comfort needs. According to Bonaldo, Vita will be available in several modular units, affording several different composition configurations.

Caroline Olsson of Akershus University, Norway recently won 2nd place in Muuto’s annual design competition for Nordic design for her Bambi Table . Bambi can be used at two different heights, thanks to a hinge inspired by the anatomy of the knee. When all of the “legs” are bent, the table resembles a doe resting in the woods

Farbkasten by Sven Stornebel is a product with my favorite product description so far this year: “just a box with color glue.” So matter-of-fact and nonchalant. There’s something really cool about these – I would love to see them with a gradient of colored glue from top to bottom.

Netherlands-based designer Erik Stehmann explores using simple materials and basic techniques to build a table and chair. “Inspired by the typical ‘woodworker’ sentence: ‘Glue is stronger than wood’, I experimented with glue and wood to test this phrase. After testing lots of different types and brands of glue I discovered a glue that succeeded. By cutting a beam up in blocks, and gluing it together as a beam again, it became even stronger than the original beam,” Erik explains

Since I recently just started reading the i suwanee blog, I recently just came across their store Furbish, an excellent home store in Raleigh that just expanded to the ecommerce world.
And thank goodness for that because just look at thebeautiful pale pink sofa above. [I really, really need it.]
From furniture to home accessories and clothing, Furbish has bright and bold items of all kinds. I’m so glad I stumbled upon it! What’s your favorite item from Furbish?
