Do they have tags? I detest tags on towels. My current set have seen a bit of wear, so it is almost time to replace them. I was actually thinking about having some made custom, to avoid tags, but a...

Wow, the Riga desk looks really ugly to me. I assumed it was one of the cheap ones. I've always loved the Albini desk. And the Offi Wave Desk is surprisingly attractive for only $900 (though, it ha...

Still tacky.

Daniel P: I agree, as hipster flourish, overdose. But for slightly classier holiday decor, I think they are cute. Other than the bone candle holders, which are tacky beyond belief. :-)...

This is my favorite cafe/dining chair ever! No mention of Le Corbusier? (Maybe there is in that little video... can't watch it right now though, no sound at work.) Le Corbusier initiat...

I have the coffee table. I use it without wheels. It is very sturdy; recommended. I am thinking about replacing it at some point though because it is a bit too low for my sofa.

Very cohesive. My favorite elemets are the sofas. RedMaiko: I think the lights in the living room are:

I just have to re-post part of somedudeinvicenza's comment because it is so awesome: 'Finally, I love all the "how bourgeois!" comments. Uh...this is a design blog. Who are you calling...

For practicality, steel. For aesthetics, marble. I have always disliked granite pattern. It looks like it is designed to hide dirt, which to me just makes it always look dirty, even when clean.

I also love the huge forest canvas. The tree pictures seem to be a theme. My favorite element is the contrast of the baroque frames with the industrial brick walls.

Looking at it again, I think a cream with warm tones would work best. It would pull the floor color up into the rest of the room and unify everything. You might even want to take a sample of the fl...

I vote for cream, or a pastel. Concur with veto on bright orange and chocolate. Anything too saturated will jump forward way too much against the other colors there, I think.

Concur. This is stylish, but not minimal in any way I can see. In fact, there is a tremendous amount of traditionalist extraneous decoration, like the molding on the walls, the frilly frames (which...

Modfan: thanks. I found bauhaus2yourhouse also and was likewise slightly put off by the knock-offs, but they claim their Thonets are made in some of the original factories and are licensed. Have yo...

I would also add the Room and Board Linear Office Armoire: http://www.roomandboard.com/images...

Wow, I know I can bring the snark sometimes here, but prettybirdblog takes the cake. Burn it?! Please. Critical is acceptable as long as it is constructive. Anyways, I'm surprised that...

I've been looking for a reputable manufacturer of Thonet chairs, specifically the Vienna Cafe Chair 18. Any recommendations?

There is a case to be made that precious archaeological objects require careful preservation. But this article is not talking about precious archaeological objects being "looted"--it is talking abo...

gregny: seconded. The basics of space and lighting are more important than the furniture, which is more like detailing. Beware the marketing! I actually like the before pictures, other...

So by this logic, I guess the little black dress would be masculine? I don't think this is a useful paradigm for balancing a design. Instead, why not focus on real qualities (many of w...
