How can these pieces not make you happy? The chair, pouf, and rugs by MYK are made of fun and colorful pom-poms, otherwise known as the “bommel” in German, that are bound to make anyone feel like a kid again. Each pom-pom is made entirely by hand and with each object containing up to 1300 of them, they are definitely a labor of love. If you like the pom-pom look but all the color frightens you, you’re in luck.

Materials: KARLSTAD sofas (2), birch plywood, wood edging, walnut Description: Two of the things I love most in this world are modern design and cats. My cats have destroyed furniture in the past so when it was time for a new sofa I was determined to outwit them by finding a modern sofa they could not use as a scratching post.

In looking for animal heads on Pinterest for all of the different ways they can be incorporated into home decor, I didn’t realize that I had found six – quite appropriate, though, isn’t it?
Anyway, it seems that faux animal heads are in trend right now, and I wanted to see all the ways they’ve been featured. So here we go!
Starting with a flat animal head, we move on to a cluster of wicker animal heads, which is then followed by a colorful animal head and a paper mache animal head, then rounded out with stuffed animal heads and a mirrored animal head.
If you were going to hop on the animal head bandwagon, which way would you go? Me? I’d go mirrored all the way!

The students from the Department of Interior Architecture at Rhode Island School of Design have created a collection entitled Prototyping the Domestic Environment currently being exhibited in Milan at Salone del Mobile 2012 . The five works are interactive and multi-functional with the focus on “the formal adaptation of utilitarian furniture pieces into domestic spatial components.” Each object is not only a functioning interior piece, but they also act as adjustable devices for play, i.e., “tactile or optical sensory exploration or kinetic transformation.” The designs are well thought out, as well as being aesthetically pleasing with their geometric attributes.

Alvaro Catalán de Ocón design studio, based in Madrid, Spain, has created the geometric-inspired Rayuela stool that when grouped together creates an eye-catching visual effect. He began with the rhombus, a four-sided shape with endless possibilities. When you put three of them together you get a hexagon, which makes the perfect stool seat. Cover each rhombus in a different material and you have yourself a rockin’ tile-like design. Top image by Falkwyn de Goyeneche
