I do fancy this oversized lampshade made out of alpaca wool. Alpaca, for those who don´t know is a South American lama like creature with shaggy hair. I the lamp is bold, fun, creative and beautiful!
I love looking at the lampshade from every single angle! Love it!! It´s created by a Chilean studio, Great Things to People (gt2P)!

I found this amazing, unique, but brilliant installation online. It´s installed at the Queensland Gallery of Modern Ar, artist Yayoi Kusama. The installation, entitled The Obliteration Room, is part of Kusama’s Look Now, See Forever exhibition that runs through March 12. I was inspired by: ThisisColossal

Since I´m norwegian I thought that it´s about time that I blog about something norwegian. I found this floating sauna online at Openbuilding. (The quotes are also from here) The sauna is located in Hardangerfjorden, which is one of the most popular fjords in Norway.
What you can see here is a Finnish sauna room, which can be heated up to 90 C. You can also do it during wintertime, when it´s -20 C outside. A sauna is enjoyed by sitting on the wooden benches throwing cold water at the heated stones.
“Sweat and silence, mental purification and physical maintainance. Anchored in the middle of the fjord, a level of privacy is maintained for bathers. Little winter daylight comes through transparent walls. At night sauna shines as a floating lantern. Access with rowing boat only. Descending swimming straight through the floor of water. Using any kind of soap is prohibited due to ecological reasons.“ 
“This project is possible to construct due to the warm Gulf-stream meeting the west coast of Norway, keeping the sea ice-free the whole year. In Finland sea is mostly ice-covered from December to April, and this sauna should be lifted ashore in wintertime.“

The Polish designer Boguslaw Sliwinski designed some very funny ceramic plates! 
The fact that he “encourages” us to play with our food is appealing and funny. By using simple drawings, the plates will make your food look completely different.. I will definitely buy some!

Since it´s breakfast time, I thought I should blog about a “themed” topic.
The Baker D. Chirico store in Carlton, Australia has an appearance quite different from any other bakery i´ve seen.
The shelves are made to individual fit the different loaf sizes and cools the bread when it comes out of the oven. The chopping board looking counter has a built in scale, cutting board and a crumb collector.
The “creators” are called Fabio Ongarato Design they did not only design the architecture/design of the inside, but also the decor on the paper products. I think they did an amazing job in creating a bakery that stands out!

Stern McCafferty a Boston based architect and design firm created this custom bath all based on an inspiration photo from owners Amy and Ethan d’Abelmont Burnes.
“They gut renovated their South End rowhouse when they bought the property next door and decided to combine them. The couple wanted an open and modern sanctuary, and this tub definitely fits in with that aesthetic.”"They gut renovated their South End rowhouse when they bought the property next door and decided to combine them.

Ever wanted to own a chair that is more comfortable than your bed? The cradle is basically a big basket for adults.
It´s designed based on the concept of providing a safe and relaxing environment to calm your senses. A chair to get away from your 9-5 life. The piece comes flat packed and is made from environmental friendly resources.
Cradle chair designed by Richard Clarkson, Grace Emmanual, Kalivia Russel, Eamon Moore, Brodie Cambell, Jeremy Brooker and Joya Boerrigter from Victoria University of Wellington. And It´s actually specifically made for Autistic persons.
I read about the cradle HERE! Click there as well to see more pictures of the cradle..
