Where I Stay: Living Room Ceiling Lamp



before




after

So I finally found a ceiling light to replace the stock piece that was hanging since maybe the 80's. I don't understand how and where you find a light so insanely terrible looking but hey at least I found something to go in its place. I found this light a few months ago while in LA and I finally installed it. I absolutely love it. The bulb sits really deep so the light is really soft and it creates this really great glow on the inside of the fixture.
Next on my living room list..
1. Coffee/Cocktail table/s
2. Get around to hanging some artwork
3. Window treatments

Ikea Fall 2010




I found these scans over at Solid Frog and couldn't believe that they were from the new Ikea catalogue. I'm sure a lot of these items are vintage that they mixed in, but the styling is great!

Hen's Teeth






A few weeks ago when my wife and I were at Brimfield we ran into a guy who used to sell at the Brooklyn Flea in Ft Greene. He was at the Flea once, maybe twice, I bought a few things from him and then he never came back. So when I stumbled upon his booth at Brimfield I was stoked. I talked to him for a bit and learned he is based out of New York and he passed along his website info and tumblr so I could track him down. He is priced a little high, but he has some really great pieces in very good to great condition.

Loopwheeler Pillow for Building




Loopwheeler is so incredible. It's usually very pricey but in my opinion, totally worth it. These pillows are great, maybe a little plain, but if they are anything like your favorite Loopwheeler sweatshirt they will be a pillow that you will have and love for decades. Priced at 4,935円 that doesn't seem to be too bad. I think that converts to just a little over $50 US Dollars. Get them here.

Fern NYC


I was just checking "the get up and get down" and came across this nice shelf/storage unit, made by Fern, right here in NYC. This is such a great piece. Check out more of their work over at their blog.

More Herringbone Floors










This is my 3rd or 4th post about herringbone floors. I still can't get enough.

Silver Lake Style: Brutus Magazine






Here are some more scans from Brutus Magazine. I know I've said it a zillion times but for me it's always more about the objects in the space and the space itself and less about the styling.
