British designer Selina Rose set up her textile design studio in 2005, and ever since has been producing stunning intricately cut and printed textiles – this Bloom Table Runner ($160 USD) is just one example, made from light grey wool felt, and a beautiful precisely cut botanical pattern. What a luxe way to dress up your table!
One of our loyal readers (We heart you! Nina), sent us a link to Australian Simone Walsh who has been handcrafting jewelry for over 15 years. Simone’s work is incredibly intricate, and undeniably beautiful. Her work is influenced by the Japanese concept of ‘wabi sabi’, in which imperfection is seen as one of the highest forms of beauty. We were especially taken by her Damask Pendant on Black Silk. ($64 USD) We really like that for each piece of jewelry she describes the process and methods used in making it.
Romantic meets young, playful and intricate. The award-winning Romance Table ($599 USD) from Neringa Dervinyte, is nothing short of fabulous. Each table is made from a single sheet of powder-coated steel, and is perforated with the beautiful design. If you are feeling adventurous get the ultra sexy two-tone version.
Born in the Netherlands designer Tord Boontje, studied industrial design in Eindhoven, and later in London, and more recently moved to France and opened his own studio. His philosophy of melding design and emotion, and his belief that modernism does not mean minimalism – is captured flawlessly in this laser-cut brass garland light. ($80 USD)
