A White Couch

January 27, 2010

Adding fresh colours to your home is so easy when you have a staple piece like this white couch. You can change out your pillows and throws, paint your walls, and even change out a rug to create a fresh new feeling every few months. A white couch will allow you to play with the seasons and will always have your home feeling fresh. Maintaining a white couch is easier than most think, all you need to do is to continue to maintain instead of only clean it every few months. Find a great staple piece like this white couch, and you will always find new ways to personalize your home.

Decorating with Mirrors

January 21, 2010

Decorating with mirrors by even adding a small side table can illuminate any area with style and luxury. Mirrors are timeless and work well in contemporary interiors, just as this one does in this small bathroom. By adding a non-traditional mirror to your home, you are able to play with light and space in a new way. We love this little table, and hope you can find a little piece of luxury like this to add to your small spaces today.

Designers to Watch; Michael Aram

January 18, 2010

Our next set of the series ‘Designers to Watch’ features an amazing designer by the name of Michael Aram. He is an American born artist who studied art in New York and later traveled to India to find the inspiration for his beautiful handmade designs of today. He works primarily in metals where no two pieces are exactly the same. He creates everything from tables to lighting to candles, and has something for everyone to enjoy. His pieces are spiritual and personalized, two concepts we always want our home to embody for our own well-being.

We know you will love his pieces and find a connection between nature and style. We personally love his enchanted forest collection that ranges from polished aluminum lamps to vases to side tables, as well as his set of beautiful scented candles. Check out some of our favorite pieces from his work in our image gallery below!
