2009-11-04T01:17:00.000-08:00

The Domino bed is a classic design, simple lines, simple shape but offers a feel of true Italian quality.

I love the red mixed in the a contemporary white as white bedroom giving the room a great focal feature.

The "short" part of the name refers to the fact the head board is 57.5cm high which I love.

Knife and fork coffee table.

2009-10-04T03:27:00.000-07:00

I came across this coffee a while back and again today. It was pretty hot idea back in 2007. Sadly I can't access the Objection design site as its down but it well worth doing a google search for more info on them and maybe you will find more info than I could.

Normally I blog about comporary and modern furniture you can get your hands on but this is one of those posts that I hope will get the old creative juice following.

I love the simple idea. I'm sure health and safety my have a few problem with it and I'd sugest keeping the kids away from it or design a similar idea with a clear glass or pastic covering/case.
