Living Divani Extra Wall Bed

This is one modern and contemporary bed, the Extra Wall Living Divani bed.

Italian designer furniture brand Living Divani are famed for the sleak modern lines and the Extra wall bed is a classic.

The dress photograph from above shows off just how well this modern bed works in a contemporary setting.

The second image shows off the elegant design. As with all Living Divani furniture this custom made bed can be made to fit your needs.

I'm soon to blog me top 5 beds of this year and this has to be one of them and might even take top spot. The massive PRO or even the CON with it is it would work in almost any bedroom. I think moutains views, lake veiws of city views from this bed.

Babini Executive office Must range table

I think Babini are stunning example of modern and contemporary Italian furniture.

This pictured example is from the "must" range which is within the Executive office range.

I Really love the form of the table seating and desk with its powerful lines and feelling of stength.

From The Babini site:

A easy and round design, the use of glass together with aluminium and wengé, the particular worktops connection. It tells of a rigorous design focused on professionals and managers’ requirements, who look at the office as the interpretation of their own working and living style.

I'm sure to blog some more from Babini but in for now why not check out the Must range and entire collection here
