By Ty Wenzel • Aug 28th, 2008 • Category: Interiors Exteriors, Style Trend Forcasting

Elise Rijnberg created a table cloth that is diagrammed to assist those of us who are less refined with the proper setting of a dinner table. I also love her Piattona flatware - gorgeous and minimal in form.

Ryan Frank - Isabella Stool

By Ty Wenzel • Aug 28th, 2008 • Category: Interiors Exteriors, Style Trend Forcasting

Ryan Frank sent us his latest project, Isabella, which will be launched this September at the London Design Festival. Isabella is a stool inspired by traditional, hand-carved African seating, that deviates from the use traditional materials (exotic hard woods) in that it’s constructed instead of Strawboard. Strawboard is a sustainable formaldehyde-free material made entirely from [...]



Dapple Grey

By Ty Wenzel • Aug 28th, 2008 • Category: Fashion & Beauty, Style Trend Forcasting

I came across Dapple Grey’s (aka Renee Glastonbury) jewelry collection One Trick Pony today. I love the clever integration of the chain into the design. All pieces are made out of powder coated metal and are available for purchase here. Her website doesn’t seem to be all that up to date, but it’s worth checking [...]

By Ty Wenzel • Aug 28th, 2008 • Category: Product & Merch, Style Trend Forcasting

QStarz BT-Q1300 is a super small GPS travel recorder so you can be your own big brother. I am particularly interested in the geotagging of photos. I have been looking for a gps receiver for our D80, but synchronizing a log file with the image time stamp seems to be the only way to do [...]

I was lucky enough to have a babysitter on Saturday so I could visit my favorite hang-out, Ikea.  In addition to perusing kitchen cabinets for my upcoming gutting of my microscopic kitchen, I took some photos of some of my favorite pieces.
I really love the way Ikea creates the vignettes of actual spaces.  Some of [...]

The anchoring philosophy of Botanist furniture is the “blank canvas.” What this means is taking a technologically advanced but sustainable piece of furniture that is simple - then giving the twist of different colors, finishes and graphics that make them fresh and new, upgradeable from season to season.
The Process:
Each piece starts as a flat [...]

The Grass is Always Greener on the Modern Side

By Ty Wenzel • Aug 1st, 2008 • Category: Interiors Exteriors, Style Trend Forcasting

Buying eco-friendly products is a win-win situation for everyone. Not only are ‘green’ items great for the environment, but they look wonderful and often prove to be the most practical. Case in point: VivaTerra Flip Flop Door Mats. Rubber scraps left behind after making seasonal flip flops and metal wire have been paired together to [...]

Do-It-Yourself Designer Rugs

By Ty Wenzel • Aug 1st, 2008 • Category: Interiors Exteriors, Style Trend Forcasting

It’s amazing the effect an area rug can have on practically every room in the home. Bathrooms, living rooms, nurseries, bedrooms, and kitchens all need a central piece that keeps everything in the space connected and grounded. In my last apartment, my roommate’s mother insisted on decorating our apartment for us. Pretty lucky, right? Wrong! [...]
