is this year already flying by for you? wow, i feel like these first 2 months are like bam! almost over like that. i have alot i want to get accomplished this year, i'd better get going! (though i've been learning to slooooooow down and just BE more often than last year). my accomplishment wish list is more based on artistic projects and travel. i reeeeallly want to travel a little and take time away from the day to day, when i can.

how is your weekend looking? i've been in a quiet mood, reading & just gathering artistic inspiration from a bunch of sources lately. letting things come to me i suppose instead of chasing stuff all over the place. which is nice. i hope that you have a super relaxing weekend. and if you are interested, a few fun friday links comin' at ya...

daniel becker design studio

i wanted to share some of the amazing product line coming out of the berlin-based design studio of daniel becker...

daniel's site states that they "offer design services and innovative conception in the fields of lighting and furniture design, and that they are open to any kind of task." and when i convert the dollar value to u.s. dollars, i have to say that it seems to me anyway, to have the ability to purchase a one of a kind piece such as any of these, at reasonable prices is a find! enjoy!

get the look: layered tables

i'm reaaaaally enjoying the look these days of the cascading or layered coffee & side tables...

they add interest in a number of ways. by themselves, standing alone they are just fun and sculptural. they are unique whether the design medium used is colored glass, a mix of wood & metal, or even by utilizing a number of recycled or unusual materials. and by styling them with a number of objects such as trays or books or vessels or decorative finds (vintage or new) changes it up, and what's even more fun is the fact that you change it up any time you want, creating an easy fresh look and feel to your spaces.

these are a few of recent favs. find links to get the look, here. enjoy!
